w a r A r e a Report of the Provincial Secre- ttary for Prince Edward Island. Mrs.

LONDON. Aug. Zfr-Grcat Brit- ain will continue efforts to pcr- suade Chino and Japan to remove

nrmcd forces from Shiiuglziil, a communique announced tonight following n. conference between

Prime Minister Chamberlain and lending members of his cabinet.

The communique stated the gov- ernment, after considering an in- creasing number of attacks on ltlcditerrdncnu shipping. would maintain continuously, for the pre- sent at least, ll warships - two heavy ships and a flotilla. of dc- stroycrs-lu the western Mediter- ranean basin for the protection of British shipping.

The meeting “endorsed decisions already taken" in regard to the Far Eastern situation “and espe- cially reaffirmed that nil practic- able mensurcs would be token to protect British livcs and property in Shanghai," the communique said, adding:

“There is no truth in the report the British Government are con- icmluiotiug o. policy of evacuation. The British (Jnvcrximcnt propose lo persist in cfforls to secure the exclusion of Shanghai from the nrco of hostilities.

"It Will be remembered both the Chinese and Jnlmncs governments have been notified that the Brit- ish government rrscrvc tho right to hold them responsible for dom- nge and loss to British lives or properly resulting from the action of Chinese and Japanese forces in the course of prcscnt hostilities in China. and that protests have been addressed to llle Japanese govern- ment concerning occupntion of British ])i'0]‘l5‘l‘ll05 in the Interna- tional Settlement by Japanese forces, and they have been wnrn- cd that compensation for occupa- tion nnd for any loss or damage to such properties will be claimed."

The communique sold the gav- ernment "share the anxiety ofthe United States government as to domngo in the Far Enst generally from the present ﬁghting, and welcome the appeal mode by the American secretary of state to both sides to cease hostilities". The government would maintain close collaboration with other gov- ernments, "especially the Ameri- can and French". in regard to the Sine-Japanese conﬂict.

Breaking his Scottish holiday be- cause of developments in the. Far East and the problems of Spanish situation. Chamberlain conferred with Foreign Secretary Eden, Viscount Halifax, Lord Pre- sident of the Council, and Slr Robert Vnnsittart, Permanent Uri- dersecretary for Foreign Affairs.

Two new steps affecting ship- ping were taken by the Rovcrn- ment.

Consular offlclnls were ordered to refer m London ull application-s for British registration by foreign- owned shipping.

The Board of Trade issued ano- tlce advising British vessels f0 curry easily Identiﬁable marks in order to avoid Attach.
