The Kuo Min Agency has given publicity to what is alleged to be letter addressed by Mr. Lenox jmpson to Marshal Chang Hsuching before the now famous inter-5|view at Mukden.
Presumably this document is a translation of the i inal and therefore caution jonid be exercised in submitting it to critical examination. - It will be remembered that the message from the "North-China Daily News" Mukden correspondent at the time of the interview ifdieated that certain proposals made by Mr. Simpson had been flatly rejected by the Young Marshal. If those proposals 00] were anything like the ones outlined the alleged'letter now published there'fs even less reason than ever to be surprised at the failure of Mr. Simpson's mission. Mr. Simpson's present state of health necessarily precludes elaboration of the issues involved for, obviously, he should be able to confirm or deny the accuracy of the Kuo Min's exhibit and, also, the accuracy is: admitted, to forward.
