Settlement viewed the verbal and
written exchanges between the Jap-
anese and Chinese officials with
alarm. Those who had lived for
.many years in the Far East were
accustomed to revolt and occasional
disturbances within China, but
there was a different flavor to their
cocklails when Japan was handling
the shaker.
...
It was a disturbing fact, that
Hongkew, which is the Japanese
community of Greater Shanghai, is
in the International Settlement. The
Japanese consul-general had issued
instructions for all his nationals to
evacuate Chapel. and all rest*Ats
of Hongkew who lived lear the
Chapel border lines were urged to
r·emove to safer regions. Marines of
the Island empire were preparing to
use this part of the Settlement as
a base of attack, with the danger-
ous prospect that British and Amer-
kan communities would be in the
line of fire of the defending 19th
Route Army. It was variously esti-
mated that General Tsai Ting-kai's
Cantonese soldiers numbered from
10,000 to 15,000, and that they were
well equipped.
On January 27, 1932, Consul-
General K, Mural delivered an ul-
timatum tg Mayor Wu, ordering
that a satisfactory reply to his five
demands be received by 6 j. m. on
the following day.
This was as good as a declara-
tion of war so far as Settlement
preparedness was concerned.

The Shanghai Municipal Council,
the governing body of the Inlorna-

"Pacific Grove has always had
great charm for me and the people
here are very dear to my heart."

Tentative plans for holding the
second annual "open house" cele-
bration the final week of June were
discussed at the regular meeting pf
the Pacific Grove chamber of com-
merce directors last Friday noon.
Completion of the plunge at the
beach and improvement of the slope
surrounding it Mil afford the in-
spiration for the celebration. It is
hoped by chamber of commerce di-
rectors to illuminate the beach pro-
perty during "open house" with
Japanese· lanterns and to secure a
fleet of small craft which would be
similarly lighted and give the illu-
slon of a Beaside festival.
,Though -no definite steps were
taken' at the February meeting and
no committees named to prepare
for the event general approval of
continuing the "open house" cele-
brations here was expressed by the
directors. They also announced that
they would welcome constructive
suggestions as to ways of making
it an attractive and successful af-
fair.
C. A. Borchers presented two de..
signs for a neon sign which the 10-
cal chamber of commerce intends
to erect at · the Intersection of the
Pacific Grove and Carmel-Monterey
roads, directing traffic to Pacific
Grove.. Other plans and costs are
