BURMA is a typical example
OF japanese methods. In 1899.
Burmas politically conscious
elements aided Japan almost
wholeheartedly while Japan laid
the groundwork for a Burmese
uprising to coincide with the
japanese invasion. In return,
they were promised freedom.
Following the invasion. Japan
gave evasive promises. The Bur-
meSe became restless and the
japanese:
o Promised independence"
this year.
o Wooed the peasants with
remittance OF all land taxes
for one year.
. Instituted price control on
staples
o Began paying for all ma
terials taken from the coun.
try.
. Paid high prices for serv-
ices and conscripted only
those who fatty refused 10
work.
o Made the monetary ex-
change rate one for one, in
stead OF following the usual
policy of undertaking the
currency of an occupied
country.
Q Curried the favor Of middle
classes by allowing them 10
establish their own banks.
. Gained unity in the country
by fostering the consolidation
of all political parties.
BURMA'S PUPPET political
creed now is "one party, one
race, one voice.
In Thai, the picture is not 50
sharp, but il is known Japan
recently made a strong bid for
complete support by granting
the nationalistic Siamese four
former Malayan provinces and
two of Bur1na's.
The japanese have interfered
only slightly with That's in.
ternal government and their
propaganda centers on the
thesis that Japan and Thailand
are marching together toward
a free East Asia.
The refutation Of Japan s
entire claim that she is working
only for the Independence Of the
Asiatics comes in Indo-China.
Here they have completely
foregone the "Asiatic solidarity
appeal because the French con.
troll over the natives is so strong
that friendship and cooperation
are unnecessary so long as
Japan and the French work To-
gether.
This ruthless policy in 1ndo.

man Marshal Gunther Won Klugs .
threw armored and air reinforce
ments into the battle of Orel to-
day in a desperate effort TO keep
the walls OF the battered German
salient from caving in under the
impact of Russian attacks on
three sides.
Earlier dispatches had said the
Germans were pulling out from
some sectors of the bulge con-
tanning an estimated 100000
troops, but latest word from the
front said the Nazi command had
ordered Orel held at all costs 10
avoid unhinging the central and
southern fronts.
TANK BATTLES RAGE
Big tank battles were reported
raging north and south OF Orel.
The Germans hurled their ar
NOR at the advancing Russians In
a bid to stabilize their flank po-
SitionS.
Red army tanks accepted the
challenge, and the armored units
wallowed through DOGGY fields in
deadly combat.
One armored battle revolved
around an unidentified village
which a front dispatch said the
Germans considered the key TO
their defenses in that area. --
Another was in progress along
the east bank OF a narrow stream
south of Orel, where German ar
NOR was trying 10 crush Rus
