ciples. 
Washington, D.C.: 
Statements in Japan’s reply to the U.S. demand for return 
of American owned properties seized by Nipponese troops 
in China Were seen today as an admission that Japan’s 
position in China is growing increasingly dangerous. 
The Japanese offered only partial satisfaction of the demands 
of the United States. Foreign minister Ugaki said that con- 
ditions in Nanking and even in Shanghai were still too 
perilious to permit return to their foreign owners of many 
properties seized by the Japanese armies. Ugaki admitted 
that the occupied Chinese cities were filled with Chinese 
plotters against the Japanese military and puppet regimes 
and that the country surrounding these cities abounded in 
Chinese irregular troops.

Company’s Ryderwood tract and several roaring fires in the
