 Chinese Not Retreating
 Not only were the Chinese not re- treating but they were assuming the initiative often. Chinese air- planes raided Japanese areas ell about the Shanghai front last night.
 Chinese sources asserted today that in the north their men have recaptured the town of Yenmen- kwaT dominating the Yenmen Pass to the north from AtiQuan In Ghansi province. This would mean that japs Anese communications there had been almost if not completely severed It was said also that . "dare to die" regiment of the eth route army, formerly the Chinese communist army, had made . sur- prise attack on c Japanese air. drome in northern Shanghai and destroyed 24 bombing airpianes.. AS was expected, 1t was said, these men were surrounded and nearly ell were killed.
 Chinese Success
 Detailed reports of Chinese sue. cesses in Shansl province continued to reach here.
 Jack Belden of the Unitde Pregs war staff arrived at Chinese field headquarterS in Shansi province and there confirmed reports that the Chinese had taken the offensive ct many points, both in frontal battles and in guerrilla raids, and had won surprising successes. =.
 Beidens dispatch left no doubt that, in many places, the Japanese were in Q most perilous position.

 Thousands of Chinese wounded arc pouring through field head quarters toward Taiyuan after the most savage fighting that has oc- cured In northern China In modern times.
 Battlehelds are strewn with dead. Chinese commanders assert that, on the Japanese side, many White" or CSarist Russians are among the dead, but I have not personally con. firmed this.
 The l20th Division Of the Chinese 9th Route Army, the former Chinese Cotnmunist Army, hes marched to Ningpu, northwest of Yuanping, and there captured Nanhuaihwa, ami. hilating c Japanese force of con" siderable size, 1t is asserted, In addl. ton to killing between 300 and 400 Japanese caught and surrounded In . valley nestled in tho mountains.
 100000 Troops Hit Japs
 One hundred thousand Chinese troops never before reported in co. ton, are pounding the main Japa- nese force, which consists of nearly two divisions, in the area. These men ore under c famous general - Hundred Victory Wei,p He ia General Wei Liu.Aang, who earned his title by leading his battle Scar- red Honan and Anhwel Province veterans to some 100 victories in the long civil wars.

 Those 8th army veterans, rated the best single unit in ell China, have cut through the mountaina north of the Yenmen Pass, torn up roads and thus forced Japanese re- inforcemenk in 100 trucks to retire toward Tatung.
 Jsps Arc In Danger
 This has left the main Japanese force in most dangerous position surrounded by Chinese.
 Men of the 9th route army alsc have severed the main Tatung- Yuanping road, while the easteriy line of communication toward Kal- gan also has been cut, 1t Is asserted by the Chinese capture of the Pinghsin Pass near the great well in eastern shansi. This has forced some Japanese cavalry to retreat from shAnsi prvoince into Hope province-where irgegulars of the peoples army" consisting of armed villagers, waited to harass them.

 Edge Was Edged xn
 Edges suggestion cut directly into the undercover contest for party in- fluence developing now between MT. Hoover and former Gov. All. M. Landon. They are headed for Q showdown when the Republican national committee meets in Chica. 70 Nov. 6-0. The committee Will decide then whether to summon the off.year national convention suggested by MT. Hoover and 60 far unendorsed by Landon.
 MT. Hoover proposed the leSS conclave last summer.
 Landon ended . silence of almost c year in an address this week to the i7,00O,00 voters who supported him in November 1886. He ham, mered ct President Roosevelt but conspicuouSly avoided any reference to the pet project of MT. Hoover to summon an off.year Republican conclave. That omission creates the impression that Lendon does not think much of MT. Hoover's plan.
 MOoyer Praises Speech
 Mir. Hoover heard the governors speech with something considerably short of enthusiasm. He said yes. terday that 1t was Q good speech" and that was all. He could not have said less except by following the example of Col. Frank Knox, le36 Republican vice presidential candidate. Knox would not express an opinion, explaining I'm going to keep out of it."
 Some political sharpshooters sug- gested today that Landon abruptly ended his long silence to prevent Mir. Hoover taking party leadership " ueLhuICs
 First, there was the Hoover con- vention suggestion. Then the for- mer president scheduled a natlon- wide broadcast for Oct. %. He will speak before the state Republican club of Boston, Mass. Landon beat him to the punch by exactly seven days.

 While Landon and Mir. Hoover seems to be involved in Q polite struggle for party contro., such men as Sen. William Y.

Franco had dispatched his Italian rein. forcements to the Aragon front, in northeastern Spain. It was believed that because Italian forces were in the final stages of the northwest campaign SO that he might gain international political support.
 Capture of Gijon will not give Franco complete control of the northwest, however. Strong Loy- alst forces occupy several strategic points throughout the province.
 The Nationalist radio announced the capture of two Shiploads Of refugees from Gijon, including the entire ASturian government.
 Surprise Attack
 The Nationalist (inSurgents) swarmed into dijon in c surprise attack launched before dawn after refugees escaping from the city had reported that the Socialist dictator, Beiarmino Tomas, chairman of the popular front coalition government had lost control of mobS, chiefly extremists, who were sacking the city and starting fires in the out- skirts.
 As soon as Asturias is "mopped up," which is expected to be within two weeks, General Francisco Fran- co will have l20 planes and 40,O0O troops available for other fronts.
 Franco'S final dash into Qijon was undertaken by 6 motorized column which moved ten miles into the city after the sea road had been cleared of trees and rocks dynamited from the mountains by the retreating Asturians.
 Hold One Port
 Loyalists still held the Port of Aviles, from which every available boat was sailing with refugees. Valencias appealed by radio to the French and British governments to send warships to protect the refu- gees on the high seas.
 A radio report from Oviedo said the bulk of the Loyalist troops in that sector had joined the Nation aiists. Some AsturiaIi miners took refuge in the mines of the Mieres region south of dijon and an- nounced their intention of contin- ing to fight.
 The governor of Bilbao announced by radio that the Nationalists had taken over ell services in Gijon and the city was returning to normal, most of the inhabitants having fled.
 Loyalist Leaders On Trial
 Valencia, Spain, October 2l. - (UP) = Three Loyalist commanders were ordered to stand trial today on a charge of conspiracy against the republic" They will be tried by special judge of the supreme court and, under military law, are liable to sentences of execution by firing squad. The charges against two were based specifically on the fall of the seaport of Malaga, which the Nationalists captured February 8.
 The men were arrested yesterday as the government continued tts campaign against alleged Fascis' elements. At least 5000 persons were said to be involved in an anti. Loyalist plot to deliver Madrid anc Valencia to the Nationalists wher Generalissim0 Francisco Franco opens new offensive.

 Shanghai, Oct. 2i.-(UP).-Fight- ing of extreme intensity broke out all along the Shanghai front today and reports from the battle lines said that 1t was the most furious Of the entire war.
 Japanese shock troops were trying, by attack after attack on key poe sitions, to break the Chinese front. But according to Chinese Spokesmen the Chinese, not only holding their positions, began 6 series of counter. attacks.
 As the infantry fought, Japanese artillery in the Hongkew section and Chinese artillery in the Chapel sec- ton exchanged 6 terrific lombard ment and fires broke out in both areas.
 One artillery shell, at least, fell south of Coochow creek, in the area defended by the international de- fense force including United States marines.
 Japanese Chief At Front
 Gen. 1wane Matsui, commander in CnIe1 or Lue Japane6e IOEceS III Ceu- tral China, was reported to have gone personally to the front to di- rect operations, in hope. he could ind e way to break the stubborn Chinese defense.
 Chinese sources asserted that Ad- miral Osanai Nagano, former Jap anese navy minister and one of the countrys most brilliant strategists and tacticians, had gone to the navy's section of the front with Vice Admiral Koyishi. commanding the Japanese navy here, to make . study similar to Matsui's.
 Reused by the admittedly unex. pected strong Chinese stand, Jap anese leaders agreed that despite any peace negotiations ct the forth. coming Brussels nine-power treaty conference, they must push the Chi. nese back before the war can end
