JAPAN CABINET
WILL DECIDE ON
MORE TROOPS

Toxic. Feb 22.-(UP)-A cabinet
meeting was scheduled for today
to consider sending heavy rein
forcements to Shanghai, although a
government spokesman indicated
immediate dispatch Of additional
forces was not likely. The spokes-
man based his prediction on the re-
port from Shanghai Of Japanese
Minister Mamoru Shigemitsu, who
said it was likely that expulsion Of
the Chinese army from the Shang-
hal area would be accomplished in
q week.
An urgent meeting of the cabinet
scheduled for Sunday was postpon-
ed after a lengthy conference be-
tween Premier Inukai and Minister
of War Lieutenant General Sadao
Araki. The previously announced
position of the government was
that whatever troops were neces-
sary to drive the Chinese back
would be sent into action. The
navy minister charged that the
Chinese had used dunn dunn bull
lets at Shanghai. The Japanese re-
ply to the league Of nations note
asking that hostilities be stopped at
Shanghai was delayed temporarily.
1t was expected to be ready late
today, but was not believed to en-
body any new arguments.

advancing, however, and managed
to send home a few lethal shots
of water from the mouths Of long
stretches of serpentine hose. The
shots became gallons and the
gallons became tons in the course
