Before many days passed Messrs. Stimson and Kellogg received reassuring news. Came formal notices from Russia and China that each would live up to the terms of the Kellogg Treaty (see p. 22). Statesmen the world over applauded Statesman Stimson's perspicacity and promptitude for his "reminder...

Dragon Pussyfoots. Shrewdest move of the week was made by President Chiang Kai-shek of China and Foreign Minister C. T. Wang when they sought to use the general treaty for the renunciation of war (Kellogg Pact) (see p. 9) as a shield to cover up the high-handed fashion in which, last fortnight, they booted out of China the entire Russian personnel of the Chinese Eastern Railway (see map). The expulsion was clearly not "an act of war" in the technical military sense (though it was a deadly blow at the Far Eastern commerce of Russia). Consequently, argued...

First Blow? But, since the Kellogg Pact loses its legalistic potency to prevent war as soon as shots have actually been fired by one of the adversaries, major interest centred last week on numerous border skirmishes, incessantly rumored to be taking place along the Chino-Russian frontier. The moment such a skirmish assumed sufficiently bloody proportions to be called an "overt act," it might serve as the tinder spark of war. Soon across the barrier of censorship, lies vast and uncharted distances, came a loud Chinese accusation. The Governor-Dictator of Manchuria, Marshal Chang Hsueh-Liang, officially charged that...
