McDANIEL (Associated Press Foreign Staff) NANKING, Aug, 6. — Continued refusal by Japan to prevent her nationals from smuggling manu- factured goods and raw materials into China and the consequent en- central measures, is hurrying the Sino-Jap- anese relations toward a crisis of ;Lhe gravest nature, in the opinion jof international authorities at the Chinese capital. The highest Chinese authorities at Nanking admit unofficially that the complications of the north China situation render it impossi- gling of merchandise into Hopeh and Chahar By Japanese and Ko- reans. Nanking further appreciates the difficulty of keeping these illicitly imported goods from penetrating into the hinterland as long as Japanese troops are in virtual control of the Hopeh termini of raflroads and highways. Yellow River Is Deadline The Chinese national authorities, however, are determined to enforce |their special anti-smuggling regula- |tions ‘south of the Yellow River, and to use mili and police force against per: suspected of transporting contraband, whatever their nationality.

New Markets at Stake Since the cessation of the 1931 boycott, merchandise bearing the “made-in-Japan” label has found its way to some of China's principal markets. Cotton and artificial silk |are’ to be found on the shelves of | all leading stores in Nanking. Radio sets and parts are in use in thou- sands of homes.
