add to cart   close window

The article discusses the future of Kiaochow, the territory which Germany leased from China in 1897 for ninety-nine years and which was captured by the Anglo-Japanese forces at the outbreak of the World War I. There are already indications that at the peace table the Kiaochow question has provoked a lively debate in which China, Great Britain and Japan have urged their several views. Germany also has an interest in the matter as the lessee of the territory. Like other leased territories in China, Kiaochow is the creation of compact and its disposition is a question of law. If the question is not to be further complicated, politics and diplomacy ought not to have any weight in the decision.
