PEKING, China. November 29,-
The Northern Chinese government
and the people of. China are bitterly
opposed" to the proposed loan to the
Japanese South Manchurian Railway
by j. p Morgan & Co, Yang Yu-Ting,
chief OF staff of Marshal Chang TsC-
Lin, told newspaper correspondents
today.
He declared that Peking would vel
come a direct American loan to China
or American participation in the de-
velopment of Manchuria. There was,
he said. enough trouble with Japan's
Manchurian enterprise and the pro-
posed loan would only bring on Amer
lea the Chinese disfavor at present di-
rected against Japan. If the loan were
concluded it would be impossible to
convince the Chinese that the United
States was not supporting Japanese
schemes in Manchuria, he asserted.
Peking Has Own Plans.
''Peking has elaborate plans to de-
velop Manchuria," he continued. Pc
king already has accomplished much
and does not need Japanese help. The
Japanese hindered rather than helped
Manchurian progress. Witness their
opposition to our railway plans.
1T is regrettable that American
bankers and people have such con-
fidence in Japan, whose Manchurian
record shows many failures"
Yang Yu-Ting declared that if the
loan were made the Chinese author
tiles in Manchuria would be able to
sion projects, and therefore the
American bankers plans were hasty.
Commenting on reports from the
United States that Japan had reach
ed an agreement on the long stand
ing radio controversy between the
Federal Wireless Co. of America and
the Mitsui Co. of Japan, Yang 1u-
Ting said: Il understand that Mac
Murray John Van A. MacMurray.
American Minister to China) is stop
ping at Toxic to discuss the radio.
Such negotiations, in which emma Is
not included, China will not accept"
Japan in 1923 protested to China
against an agreement. with the Ited-s
eraI Wireless Co. of America under
which five powerful wireless sta
tions were to be erected in China.
1t was contended that the Mitsui Co.
of Japan had previously been grant
ed wireless monopoly for 80 years.
Protests Outside Aid.
Yang Yuting said China had been
doing her utmost to develop radio
communications and did not need out
side aid. A station had already been
built at Mukden, Manchuria, he de-
clared, which was superior to the
Mitsui Station in Peking.
There are too many discussions
among foreign powers from which
China is barred" he said. I'm the fu-
ture China can't tolerate and won't
accept agreements resulting from such
conferences" He indicated that China
would probably seek to reopen the dis
cussion of past radio contracts.
Japanes domestic politics was the
real motive behind the attempt to OBJ
tain the railway loan in America. he
asserted. Although it would be ap-
piled directly to south Manchurian
railway projects, the loan would mere
ly release the company's profits, which
Toxic would devote to political pur-
poses, he declared
He then outlined the Manchurian
Railway situation. China, he said,
was planning railways to link kirin
and Tsitsihar. the capitals of the kirin
and Heilungkiang provinces, respec-
lively. with Mukden, Manchuria. This
would permit travel to Peking from
these capitals over Chinese lines en-
tirely he explained as it is at present
impossible to make such a journey
without using Japanese railways.
Agreement Is Denied.
The first link Of $50 miles in the
Mukden-Tsitsihar project is already
in operation. Japan is vigorously OPP
posing these projects. he said, claim.
ing that they run parallel to the South
Manchurian Railway, contrary to
agreement. At the same time Japan
is asserting her right to build a rail
way joining Kirin and the Korean bor-
der, claiming that, China had previous
ly agreed to this. he added. He eX-
planned that China had declared mere.
ly that China would agree to give
Japan preference if China sought loans
for the purpose of such construction
Yang Yu-Ting characterized reports
that China and Japan had completed
an agreement in regard to Manchuria
as Japanese propaganda, which. he
said. was recently broadcast especially
| in America with a view of supporting
the loan negotiations.
