DEMANDS FOR WAR
ANTAGONISM TO JAPAN SHANGHAI, Tuesday. A student attack on Dr. C. T. Wang, the Foreign Minister at Nanking, was most serious. Five thousand specially journeyed to the capital to urge military resistance to Japan. They stormed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, wrecked the windows and furniture, and violently assaulted Dr. Wang, who narrowly escaped being beaten to death. He escaped in a motor-car amid a hail of sticks and stones. The mob paraded the streets of Nanking shouting their demands for a declaration of war against Japan and Dr. Wang's dismissal.
