'Irawaddy River from captured
Myitkyina. Gen. Joseph w. Still
wells Chinese troops have taken
two-thirds of Waingmaw, it was an
nounced tonight, and Gen. Stilwell
himself said no Japanese were
known to remain between his Bur-
ma forces and the Chinese fighting
westward In Yunnan Province.
Gen. Stilwell, in his first press
conference since his nomination for
full general, said 1t had not yet
been decided whether to push q
road to China across the extremely
rugged mountain country separating
the two forces or to link up with
the old Burma Road LOT miles be-
low Myitkyina at Bhamo.
The general affirmed his deter
mination to drive the Japanese en-
tirely out of Burma, where he said
he once took "a helluva beating"
and to continue to give all possible
aid to relieve the very serious"
situation in China.
Chinese Position No Worse.
He said the Chinese position had
not grown any worse in the past
few weeks and that more tonnage
was being flown to China con-
stantly. Air transports now can fly
at lower attitudes as result of
the capture of Myitkyina after a
three-month siege, he remarked.
"a Chinese communique issued
in Chungking said the railway
: between Myitkyina and Mo-
gaung, 80 miles to the west,
already was in operation. an ac-
complishment that even the most
optimistic Of Stilwell's officers
had not expected during the
monsoon rains)
Gen. Stilwell explained that the
capture of Myitkyina took 50 long
because the Japanese drew REIN
forcements from the northeast and
northwest territories. The garrison
originally numbered less than 1000,
but Gen. Stilwell's men finally
killed more than 5000 japanese
there. He estimated that the Japa-
nese in Burma had lost more than
10000 killed and large unknown
number wounded since last Christ
mas.

into "a tailspin" in Burma, but
warned, "the Japs are just as tough

The general said all the japanese
north of Myitkyina were cleaned
out by British Gurkhas and native
Kachin levies who now had moved
down the Fort Hertz valley and
joined the main Stilwell force.
These troops were credited in the
