Stiff wrs. very good bit browned and brittle, else solid, 117p., 4 appendices, statistics, charts, front/back covers restored, old covers layed down, else solid. OBSCURE Japan's justification for the military take over of Manchur- ia. As usual, the Japanese have provoked an incident wherein their claim that they have been attached by local Chinese or Manchurians or who ever were suitable. At this juncture, the Japanese launch a military strike, and take over what ever or who ever was their current target. In this white paper, Itoh-san outlines in much and great detail just how the poor Japanese have been mis-treated under the heel of Japanese imposed de-facto rule. This has been the standard method of operation of Japan in her quest to conquer and subdue all of the Chinese continent, Korea, Manchuria and any other area it could exert its military might upon. Per the preface the documentary evidence has been compiled from research conducted by the South Manchuria Railway Company's office. One wonders how they ever had time to run the railway ! With chapter headings: CHINA'S CHALLENGE IN MANCHURIA, activities of teh "Liaoning People's Diplomatic Society." ANTI-FOREIGN EDUCATION. VIOLATION OF TREATYPROVISIONS AND ENCROACHMENT ON JAPAN'S RIGHTS AND INTERESTS: Mining Rights, Right of Resid- ence and Leasing of Land, Problems of Koreans in Manchuria. Concluding remarks, and tons of statistical charts, data and other charts proving their point. Very copious, in depth work !
