OWNERSHIP DISPUTE
QUICKENS WAR TALK

MOSCOW May .l:-tUP9-
Word that Manchoukuo officially
disputed Moscow's sole ownership
of the Chinese Eastern railway in
Manchuria yesterday added to the
RusSO-Japanese war-talk rccur-
rent here.
The Soviet unions ownership
of the railway in north Manchuria,
the center of the controversy,
hitherto has been unchallenged.
The Manchoukuo authorities
merely had denounced the Soviets,
charging them with Selling C.E.A.
rolling stock and keeping it across
the border in Siberia.
Correspondence made public in
dicates that Ii Shao-Keng, Man
choukuo's director of the Jointly
operated railway, last week denied
Soviet ownership of the line and
accused the Soviet administration
with "lawless and Onesided ac-
tons"
In response, Vice-Chairman
Kuznetzov, Of the Chinese EaS-
tern railway. described Soviet
ownership as "an indisputable
fact, acknowledged by all the
documents"
He cited the Mukden and Peip-
ing (then Peking) treaties giving
China the right to buy the rail-
way, under certain conditions.
These treaties. signed in 1924
with the then semi-independent
governments at Mukden, capital
of the old Manchuria, and Peip-
ing, ancient capitol of China, gave
equal representation to China and
Russia on the board of directors
of the GER.
Kuznetzov argued that China's
agreement at that time to buy the
railway from Moscow constituted
the clearest confirmation of Soviet
ownership, and added that at
tempts to cast doubts "inspires
the most serious anxiety and con-
vinces me Manchoukuo aims to
destroy both the aforementioned
treaties, which are the basis of a
collaboration and mutual admin
istration of the railroad"
