CHINESE GENERAL AND MEN
DETERMINED TO HOLD FORT

fort. However, he told me that
communications with other units of
the Chinese 18th route army are
still open.
I asked him whether Japanese
soldiers under Major General Ku-
may Shimonoto were worse enemies
than the marines commanded BY
Rear Admiral Uyematsu.
THE marines were much tough
err General Yung replied, adopt
ing an American slang expression
with a slow smile.
The fort remains completely in
the hands of Chinese, and their
morale appears to be of the high
est. They gave every indication of
intending to remain until the last
shell is fired.
Most of the men, momentarily
expecting a formidable attack, are
living in dugouts. They await the
foray alertly but stoically.

SHANGHAI, Feb. 16.-A cour-
ageous but downcast Chinese gener-
al and his equally determined COM
mand were found at the fortress of
Woosung today when I penetrated
the lines of Japanese who have been
shelling the stronghold for days.
On the eve of what promises to
be the biggest battle for control of
Shanghai, Gen. Yung Chow -Huan,
garrison commander at Woosung,
said with typical Oriental resigna-
ton:
My men have decided to stick
with me. When Woosung goes, we
go with it,"
Amid warlike surroundings, the
quiet, elderly general surveyed his
battered fort and made ready for
last stand against the invading
hosts of Japanese. His men already
have undergone privations and the
stress of many battles, but General
Yuan is still doggedly determined.
There is not much we can do
when shelled by warships in the
river and airplanes overhead" he
said. But we nave repaired sew
eral of our damaged guns and feel
certain we are ready to meet any
infantry attack"
Yung was reticent to discuss the
casualties his command has suf-
fered and the conditions of food.

AGAIN SEEKS TO
GOVERN TEXANS

DALLAS, Tex, Feb. lG. U.PD -
Mrs. Miriam A. (MD Ferguson,
who canned fruit in the guberna-
torial mansion while administering
affairs of state, again has an
nounced her candidacy for the
Texas governorship, the Dallas
News said today.
Mrs. Ferguson, whose adminis-
tration from 1925 until 1927 drew
fire because of her wholesale
pardoning of convicts. is making
the race for the fourth time in re-
sponse to "the written requests OF
friends in 200 counties in Texas
that l again enter the service of
the state" The News stated. The
dispatch was from the newspapers
state house bureau at Austin.
Mrs. Ferguson won the office in
1924 on platform OF "vindication
for her husband, former Gov.
James. E. (Pa Ferguson, who had
been ousted a decade before. His
Impeachment technically barred
him from holding a state position,
but he sat at a desk in his wife's
office all the time she was gov
ernor.
Mrs. Ferguson has been a guber-
material candidate three times be-
fore. She was successful in 1924
but lost to former Gov. Dan Moody
after one term i'll office. In the
Democratic primary of 1890, she
ran first, but was defeated in tn,
rrn-off for the nomination by Ros.

territory suitable for landing field pur-
poses. The private interests cannot ex-
pand the field because of this barrier.
If the Government were to take over
the field by lease or purchase it would
be in a position to relocate the high
way in its own interest as well as that
Of the present private owners.
Washington should have the best
possible and the most commodious field
permitted by local conditions. The field
on the Virginia shore is unusually well
located with reference to convenience
of the patrons of the airlines. In only
few instances are landing fields SO
near to the urban areas which they
serve as that on the Potomac shore.
Whatever may be done later in the de-
velopment of another field, if the estab-
lshment of one should be undertaken,
it could not be more satisfactorily sit
uated than that which is now In use.
The complexities Of the present situa-
ton are easily resolved If the Govern
ment will take over the ownership or
lease and conduct the field as its own,
with private use permitted. AS long as
these complications remain no private
interests can safely proceed with the
extension and development Of the area
to meet the increasing requirements.
