SINO-JAPANESE WAR
AMERICA SUGGESTED AS MEDIATOR CHINESE DEFINITION OF HONOURABLE PEACE Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, September 27. In an exclusive despatch from Chunking, the United Press correspondent there states that the Foreign Minister (Mr Wang Chun-hui) suggested that the United. States was in a favourable position to act as mediator to bring the Sino-Japanese hostilities to an early end. He outlined the basis of an honourable peace as follows: 1. The enforcement of the NinePower Treaty. 2. The economic co-operation of all friendly nations, including Japan, if willing to co-operate on the basis of equality. “ Thus far, unfortunately, Japan’s idea of co-operation has really been Japanese domination of China. On this basis we can never co-operate,” Air Chung-hui declared. “ Japan has no chance to execute the programme on which she embarked in 1937. She is already very weary and realises that she is ringed in by nations pledged to enforce the Nine-Power Pact.”
