Chinese Protest Agi Goebbels Speech

New Chinese Ambassador Due — In Berlin Today

Berlin, Sept. 20.

The Chinese Charge d'Affaires visited the Under-Secretary of State at the Foreign Office today to protest against, a certain speech by Dr. Joseph Goebbels, Minister of Propaganda, at the recent Nuremberg Congress in which he said, referring to the opening of dykes on the Yellow River, "these Chinese crimes are much more inhumane than Japanese air bombardments."

The Chinese Ambassador, Mr. Chen Chieh, is due here tomorrow.—
