Food Situation Eased By Arrival ' Of British Ships

1,500 Britons Virtual Prisoners In The British Concession At Tientsin.

(By The Canadian Press)

Far Eastern tension unabated today as the Japanese blockade of the British and French Concessions at Tientsin. entering its sixth day, kept 1,500 Britons virtual prisoners

The actual food situation eased, however, when two British frelghters tied up at Tientsin piers and shipowners expressed belief that possibly Japan planned to modify her grip on the port.

British authorities of the North China port urged all their nationals to stay within the blockaded area because of animosity of the Japanese.

General Hammu_ Commander of the Japanese garrison at Tientsin, was quoted by North China dispatches as say- ing Japan was increasingly determined to maintain the blockade “until Great Britain abandons her policy of as- sisting Chiang Kai-Shek and the British Concession in Tientsin collapses.”

His statement expressed belief any British economic reprlsals would be “worthless unless Am’-
