the japanese Army suffered a major
disaster, its first in modern times, in
the recent battle in Southern Shan

mates indicated japanese forces had
suffered more than so per cent casual
ties in fighting of the past 10 days. in
which they were thrown back from
TaierhchWang on the Grand Canal, to
Yihsien. 20 miles to the northwest
japanese reports indicated the Jap
anese command was speeding REIN
forcements from the north. northeast,
south and southeast toward the Shan
tung battlefield in hopes of retrieving
the disaster
The foreign experts believe that Of
$4,000 japanese engaged in the fight
for Taierhchwang 1000 to 10000 were
killed and 10000 wounded Jubilant
Chinese claims of 10000 japanese
killed were believed too high.
Chinese Losses Far Greater.
Chinese losses, the foreigners esti-
mated. were two or three times as large
as the Japanese since the Chinese had
much larger forces engaged and won
in the final phase bv smothering their
foe by weight Of numbers, cutting of
and destroying japanese detachments
in hand-to- hand fighting
Chinese said more than 100 japanese
tanks had been captured after they had
run out Of fuel and their crews wiped
out as they fought to death.
The japanese army spokesman. fac
ing foreign correspondents in a tense
conference, tried to ignore the recent
past by insisting the tide had turned.
Concerning the foreign experts esti-
mate of the TaierhchWang battle he
said he had no statement to make. -
although he admitted bitter fighting
was in progress north of the ruins of
Taierhchwang'-his first admission
the japanese had been thrown back.

must assume that Japan has suffered
a major military disaster" the spokes-
man said:
