She also made the most of the more or less serious mls- takes made by both Japan and China in the course of the diplomatic and commercial relations.” After outlining the successive sur- render by Japan in the interests of peace after the Chinese war and the walving of all money Indemnity fol- lowing the war with Russla, the state- ment comes up to the taking of Tsing- | Tao from Germany after Germany had | | refused to accept the ultimatum of | 1914, under which Japan de- { that Germany vacate Tsing- Paris, Press.) anese ence, (By The | August, manded | Tao.
