To the Editor of the "Norta-Cama Dairy News."
Sir,—May I address upon you the case of Mr. Shaw.
The leading papers of the Orient have explained the law of exter-Fitoriality, and seeing that Mr. Shaw has committed no crime, political or criminal, in Japanese territories, he ought, apparently, to be handed over to the British Consul of the locality interested (Manchuria) and there tried impartially in a British Court.
The statements emanating from "authoritative quarters" are somewhat at variance with truth and fairplay.
Firstly say the authoritative quarters, The officials of the Government-General are careful to see that Mr. Shaw is provided with new quarters and not an ordinary cell for his retention." They leniently permit a supply of things desired by the prisoner."
