Light on Manchuria drawn by League inquiry
The Lytton led League of Nations commission reports in Geneva that Japan held 22,400 regulars in Manchuria and has since reinforced from Shanghai. Japan has created a 85,000 strong Chinese force under a puppet government to operate in Manchuria, though it remains unreliable against loyalist brigand forces prompting Japan to keep its own troops in motion.
