Tokyo, Oct. 12.
Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers here were handed notes today by Prince Fumimaro Konoye, Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, urging the Powers to refrain from actions tending to indicate that they \were favouring the Chinese in South CÌ drive.
The note also asked foreign Governments to refrain as far as possible from moving vessels, troops and aircraft within Chinese territorial waters between Swatow and Pakhoi.
The note requested third Powers not to allow Chinese to use fore properties and also asked that foreign vessels do not approach Chinese military establishments.
Foreign Powers were asked in the note to provide aerial landmarks showing where foreign properties are situated in danger zones.
If Chinese troops occupy foreign properties, the Japanese forces must attack them, the note said, and therefore Prince Konoye suggested that foreigners should leave the zone of hostilities to prevent possible international incidents involving the loss of foreign lives—United Press.
