“Thus ends the five month sanguinary offensive in North China which threatened to result in Japanese military occupation of Tientsin and Peiping… the terms of the truce provide that the Chinese troops shall withdraw behind a line 130 miles long which runs behind parallel to and from twenty-five to thirty-five miles east of Tientsin-Pieping.
“When the withdrawal of Chinese troops is completed the Japanese agree that their own troops will retire to the Great Wall, which the Japanese claim is the boundary of the state of Manchukuo.”
