WASHINGTON, June "a little
wall-bordered avenue less than half
mile long-Legation Street, Peip-
ing China-StandS as a bulwark
against increasingly vigorous Japa-
nese expansionist policies inside the
Great Wall of old Cathay.
Although Marking has been
Chinas capital since 1923 most of
the foreign legations - American,
British, French, Japanese, Belgian,
German, Italian and RusSian-re-
main in Peiping's legation quarter.
Surrounded by the noisy, odorous
Tartar city and within a stone S
throw of the cleaning yellow tiles
of the Forbidden City these lega-
tionS since 1881 have been a major
obstacle to actual Japanese mill
tary occupation of the Peiping-
TientSin area.
Forgotten Regiment" in Tientsin
The American, British, French
and italian legations maintain armed
guards. There are 500 United
States Marines, 300 British Tom
mics, $50 French poilus and 100
Italian sailors, the pick of Musso-
lini's navy. They stand as constant
reminders to the japanese that the
ministers residing on Legation Street
regard China as an independent
sovereign power whose integrity
must be respected.
In Tientsin, the port city 90 miles
from Peiping, there are 1850 men
of the 18th Infantry-the regiment
America has forgotten, so long has
it been in China. The French,
British and Italians also maintain
more substantial military establish
ments in Tientsin than they do in
Peiping.
With the japanese the foreign
powers in North China share the
rights granted to the foreign
devils" under the Boxer protocol of
1901. Japan can not act along the
Peiping Mukden Railway which con-
meets the ancient capital of the
Sons of Han with Manchuria
through the gateway at Shanhai-
kuan, where the Great Wall Of
China comes down to the sea.
The Boxer protocol stands as an
other obstacle to unrestricted
Japanese conquest inside the Great
Wall.
Passive Resistance Is Check
There is not and never has been
intimation that the foreign troops
on Chinese soil, other than Japan
csc, will fight with the intense lit
tie soldiers of Nippon.
But their presence i'll Peiping and
Tientsin, along with the legations
near the forbidden City, are moral
checks against any fortnight swal-
lowing of North China by the forces
which took Manchuria so easily and
have kept it so we'll against the I'M
ceasing protests of the United States
and the powers represented at the
council tables OF the League Of Ma
lions.
Another obstacle to permanent
japanese occupation of North China
is the Chinese themselves. Passive
resistance. based on knowledge that
no alien has ever remained con-
uuerer of China long, encourages
the Chinese in meeting adversely
and in believing that eventually
they will absorb and obliterate the
invader.
