Extract

In 1903 the United States, by treaty with China, agreed to give China every assistance in the reform of her judicial system, and stated that it would also be prepared “ to relinquish extraterritorial rights when satisfied that the state of the Chinese laws, the arrangements for their administration, and other considerations warrant it in so doing.”
