The Kokumln editorial said "the

Japanese operations would not be
hampered by mere maneuvera.
"Further wa are forced to express
dissatisfaction about the attitude of
the foreign office In repeating Jap

and Interests,"
"The mere existence of operations
In south China Is sufficient warning
to thoae powers who are extending
assistance to China." '
