Last Stand in China
is Aim Of japanese,
|Wedemeyer Believes
BY the AssoeIated Prssa.

BY the Associated Press.
CHUNGKING, Nov. 16.-Japan
plans to fight the final, decisive bat Z
ties of the war on the .Asiatic main.
land and is steadily reinforcing her
substantial strength in South China,
Mai. Gen. Albert c.. .Wedemeyer
said in an interview today.
Gen. Wedemeyer, who succeeded
Gen, Joseph w. Stilwcu October 81
as commander of American forces in
the China theater and as chief Of
stan to President Chang Kai-shek,
refused to discuss the removal OF
Gen. Stilwell.
Gen. .Wedemeyer said he believed
the war against Japan would last
about a year after Germany was
beaten, but every one thought the
war in Europe would be over this
year-and 1t may run into early
next summer"
He said Japanese strategy orig
inally based on employment of naval
and air forces had proved inef1ec-
tive. The Japanese now have gone
from an oceanic to a continental
strategy, he said, adding: THE
japanese Army Is fairly well intact
and well trained and equipped"
Gen. Wedemeyer refused to esti-
mate japanese strength In South
China except to say it represented
"a very formidable array, steadily
being strengthened.
He avoided, on military grounds,
any forecast of the direction Of Jap
anese drives, but said that in exc
cutting her continental strategy,
Japan obviously would want to have
her rear protected and you can
draw your own conclusions.
The best way the Allies can help
China is to bring all available re-
sources to bear on the one object
ID that's killing japanese" he said.
The general said the United States
build continue to support China In
the air, bring in whatever supplies
possible, maintain efforts Ia the Pa
cific to subjugate the Japanese and
organize and train Chinese troops to
increase their efficiency.
Questioned whether China could
contribute effectively to the war
against Japan without compromise
between the government and the
Chinese Communists, Gen. Wede-
meyer said:
I THE degree of effectiveness with
out the help of the Communists 10
Idifncult to determine But 1t is a
basic premise that unity in war Is
Essential to fight effectively"
