ment, in annual installments over

obtain at this time If 1t were OBJ

driven back II miles along the
Chekiang- -Kiangsi railway.

| lang Province followed a bitter and
obstinate struggle in the streets in
which both sides lost heavily. A
sanguinary fight was said to be con-
tinuing just at the outskirts of the

way to both the southwestern and
northwestern outskirts.
Chinese troops also fought their
way into Nancheng, 80 miles south
east of Nanchang, yesterday. but
abandoned the city after a brief
occupation, the agency said.

fighting was reported from the
northern battlefield of the Honan-
/ Shansi border region. where the
Chinese said they had taken several
KEY heights in the Talheng foot
hills south of LinhSien. But they
admitted the japanese were press
ing in two directions On Lingchwan,
