Ichang Tell Of Out
RACES by Invaders

Shanghai, March 9.-(AP)- Au-
thoritative neutral foreign sources
at Ichang, goal of Japanese often
sive into the heart of China, report
ed today that 1900 persons had been
killed or wounded there in two days
of terrific bombardment by squad
rons of Japanese war planes.
1t was estimated that 100 bombs
had crashed into the center of the
city, which lies on the Yangtze river,
nearly 1000 miles by water from
Shanghai. The ancient north wall
was almost completely leveled, along
with many shops and houses.
There was no definite word on
the situation of 100 foreigners at
Ichang, mostly missionaries. How
ever, it was not believed any for
eigners were injured or any foreign
property damaged. The authoritative
sources at Ichang described the
bombings as "heavy and indiscrim-
mate"
A large pcrticn of the population,
normally 10000, was reported in
flight by river and roadway In view
of past tactics, foreign observers at
Shanghai believed the Japanese
would quickly follow up the air raids
with a smash westward from the Han
river, Yangtze river tributary, rs
miles away.
Japanese planes and cruisers
bombed and shelled coastal points
of southern Fukien province in what
may be the prelude to extension OF
the Japanese invasion to new quar-
ter of the south China coast.
