Senator Robinson Denounces Shantung Misinterpretations in Senate
Senator Robinson of Arkansas told the Senate that misinterpretations of the treaty granting Japan control in Shantung are unjust and that the leased territory’s population is about 165 000. He noted German claims date to 1896 and cited historical context as Japan seeks restoration of ceded lands to China as soon as feasible. He dismissed claims that Shantung’s 40 000 000 inhabitants are wrested from China and urged patience in resolving the issue.
