China's Recognition

The State Department of the United States proposed to the other nations that the new republic of China be recognized on April 8, the day on which her legislature met; but the other nations have not felt free to follow the suggestion of the American government. The fact that the province of Mongolia has declared its independence of China and has been recognized by Russia has complicated the situation to some extent. It is reported that the other nations will not recognize the Chinese Republic until it is in full working order under its constitution, which has not yet been adopted. Whether the United States will act alone or will wait until the other powers act has not been definitely decided.
