This fact devel oped officially today, following ceipt of advices showing th a t G reat B ritain too, had spurned the Am erican suggestloin for joint action In the C h inese situation. Jap a n apparently was sensitive— and som ew h a t em b ittered—because the U n ited S tates in th e first Instance did not consult h e r about the Chine.-’e situation. Japan’s “param o u n t in t e r est” in C h ina evidently influenced her to with hold support of th e Am erican position, but G reat B ritain’s refusal to come in on the move perplexes authorities here, who thus far have had no official reasons fi'om England for th e refusal. The U n ited S tates secretly asked the allied powers to join in h e r advice to China after the note had been dis patched. G reat B ritain’s offical an swer had not reached the S tate D e partm e n t today, hut there was no r e a son to doubt th e unofficial reports th a t h e r reply was a rejection. 'Officials attem p ted to m inim ize the im p o rtance of these two refusals, but it was pointed out th a t they will probably em b a rrass any further A m erican efforts to compose the Chinese internal difficulties.
