Newspaper Commewt. Newspapers here comment urfavor- ably upon the e:ght points mede pub- lic by the foreign office, declaring | they differ materially from tle stand: taken in the Chinese mote of- Gotob 5. Following is a summary of eight. points: 1. China shall takeé back the entire Shantung leased territory, mmking| Tsingtao an opef port and govern- ing it exactly as it was ddministered under the German regime through & Chinese municipal administrative bu- reau. Customs duties shail not be imposed on goods imported at Tsing- tao and intended for sale in the leased terrifory. : 2. China sHall not recognide the' validity of forcible purchuses of land in the leased territory from: Chinese by the Japanese since the Japdnese military occupation. 3. All former Germfan govermment property at Teifgtwo stall Be oon- trolled by the Chinese’ maritime cus- toms service or' the Chiriese rtunicipal administrative bureau. An edceptionm would be made of the fortifications| and barracks, which would' pas under the control of the Chiness govern- ment immediately following the con- clusion of specidl arrangements be- tween China and Japan. Salt fields in Shantung must be returned to China, as salt constitutes a govern- ment monopoly.

The railroads between Tsinan-Fu and Shunteh-Fu and Kaomi and Hsuchow-Fu shall be turned over to the management of coneortinme for operation, while the muin }ine of rafl- road between Tsing-Fdo snd Tstran- Fu shall either be operated Wnmedi- ately By China, or shaii be défivered to Chifie upon a fixed date, pending which & temporary Chino-Japanese system of financial and technical . operation would be satisfactory to China. Rallway shares formerly be- longing to the German govermment shall be equally divided between China and Japan, and privately owned German shares shall, if Secessary, be refunded by Chifa and Japan equxlly. China shall be entitled to one-half o the surplus and profits earned by the railrods since the Japanese began operation, and shall be entitled to the samé ratio until there is a full restoratioh.
