establish as soon as possible a situation
consistent with these principles, the

\ object of negotiations recommended
hereinafter should be to organize this
evacuation and to determine the meth
DDS, stages and time limit thereof.
Autonomy Is Asked.
"(b) Having regard to local condi-
tionS special to Manchuria, to the par
ticular rights and interests possessed
& by Japan, and to the rights and inter-
ests of third states the Assembly rec
ommends establishment in Manchuria
within a reasonable period of organ
ization under the sovereignty of and
compatible with the administrative in
tegrity of China. This organization
should provide wide measure of au-
tonomy, should be in harmony with
local conditions and should take ac-
count of multilateral treaties In force,

and interests Of Japan and the rights

The committee authorized a report
TO the assembly on the state Of the ne.
gotiations at any time considered prop.
er, especially on negotiations concerning
the japanese evacuation and establish
ment of a Manchurian government un-
der Chinese sovereignty.
The final section of the recommen-
dation reads:
In view of the special circumstance
OF the case, the recommendations made
do not provide for a mere return to the
status quo existing before September
1881. They likewise exclude mainte-
nance and recognition Of the existing re-
gime In Manchuria, such maintenance
and recognition being incompatible with
the fundamental principles of existing
international obligations, and with gooc
understanding between the two coun.
tries upon which peace in the Far Eas
depends.

ent report the members of the Leagu,
intend to abstain, particularly as re
CARDS the existing regime in Man
churia, from any act which nigh
prejudice or delay carrying out tn
recommendations of the said report
They will continue not to recognize
this regime either de jure or de facto
They intend to abstain from taking an,
isolated action with regard to the sit
uation in Manchuria and to continu
to concert their action among them
selves, as well as with interested state
