Danger for Japan of Too Forward a Policy London, May 9.
'The papers which continue to "splash" despatches relating to the events in China, dwell on Jo gravity of the news' that fight-between the Japanese and Southern forces at Tsinanfu has been renewed, The "Manchester Guardian" says that the Japanese Government is apparently about to follow a bel gerent policy—a policy from which the British Government shrank after the Nanking outrages, If Japan occupies Tsinanfu and most of Shantung until she obtains satisfaction and redress, the paper proceeds, she is likely to stay there indefinitely, Satisfaction and dress, it adds, are really unobt able: one might as well demand apologies from an earthquake, "The "Manchester Guardian" ex-progges the opinion that the results of eh occupation are likely to be strous, more particularly, per~ to the Japanese, and also to the general "relationship between China' and the Powers.
