"NO INTERFERENCE”
SOVIET POLICY TOWARD CHINA TROUBLE
NATIONS REPLY TO NOTES Reed. 9.15 a.m. LONDON, Thurs. The Chinese reply to the British Note with respect to the Sino-Rus-sian dispute points out that China has maintained a peaceful attitude, and refrained from adopting hostile military actions, except for selfdefence. A summary of the Soviet reply to the British memorandum declares the Soviet policy to be peaceful and the Nanking policy provocative, and states that the measures taken by the Red army were entirely in self-defence, and were not a breach of the Paris agreement. The reply disputes the right of any group of States to act as guardians of the pact, and says the conflict can only be ended by direct negotiation, on conditions with which China is acquainted and Mukden has already accepted, and that no outside interference cah be permitted. Italy has informed the Soviet of her adherence to the American Note regarding the Kellogg-Briand pact, with reference to Manchuria.
