Communist Demon
stration In Front of
China Con sula ate
Stopped By Police

WASHINGTON, July 19.-(P)-
Secretary Stimson has called to the
attention of both the Soviet and
Chinese governments the fact that
they are signatories Of the kellogg
anti-war treaty in connection with
reported threats Of war between the
two countries.
French Ambassador Claudel call
ed at the state department yester-
day, and it is presumed in diplo-
matte circles Secretary StimSon
communicated to him for trans
mission through his government to
the Soviet the suggestion that they
should abide by the remuneration OF
war doctrine which was adopted as
a national policy by Russia with ad-
herence to the kellogg pact.
Chinese Minister WI received a
similar suggestion from Secretary
StimSon.
While the state department is
without authoritative information
on the underlying causes Of the dis
pute between China and Russia
over seizure by China of the Chi
nese Eastern railway, Secretary
Stimson on the basis of press re-
ports feels the entire matter can be
settled without resort to hoStilitieS.
In his steps to avoid hostilities in
the Far East, Secretary Stimson en-
listed the aid of Japan, Great Brit
ain and France. Besides comforting
yesterday with French Ambassador
Claudel, Mr.. Stimson talked at
length with Japanese Ambassador
Debuchi. Sir Esme Howard, the
British ambassador, has also con-
ferred with the secretary on the sit
uation.
Under the terms Of the four-pow-
er treaty concerningthe Pacific
signed in Washington in 1921, the
United States, Great Britain, Japan
and France are obligated to confer
and consult with one another in a
threat to peace in the Pacific, and
particularly regarding threat tc
their possessions. Secretary Slim
son went beyond this, however, and
took steps to call to the attention
Of the two governments their adj
herence to the Kellogg treaties fol
the remuneration of war.
