not received any further information re-

retreat Of the Japanese on Feng-Wang-

thus giving the Japanese an opportunity to
complete their preparations to capture Port

When the Japanese begin a determined
movement in this vicinity 1t will be from

They figure that 1t does not matter what

The Japanese are still fortifying the hills
on the neck of land between Talien-Wan

protected by sandbags, have been mounted
