Eyes on Turkey

His Excellency Alfred Sze, Chinese Minister to Washington, speaking at the Institute of Politics, Williamstown, said that China had followed recent events in Turkey with great interest. Apparently, as a corollary, China will demand from the Powers a statement of conditions on which the Powers would be prepared to grant her complete independence and abandon the principle of extraterritoriality.

The Minister also stated that he doubted if those who demanded a stable Government in China could always show that their own Governments were under the complete control of their peoples. " China," he said, " should not always be compared to the ideal."
