Chang felt that the lease-lend he

These figures did not include

Nimitz announced on October 26

of Formosa He has not ampli-
fled that report which would sug-
gest at least three vessels.
For the third battle, that off
Samar, Admiral Nimitz has listed
as "fragmentary reports" the
sinking or damaging of seven
warships. But estimates, not yet
embodied in official reports of
Vice Admiral Thomas c. Kinkaid
of the 7th Fleet on enemy war
ships sunk or damaged, have
ranged from II to 26.
Many Survivors Captured.
Gen. Macarthur said many sur
vivors from the sunken enemy war;
ships have been captured, including
a captain of one of the destroyers
In his communique of October 26,
Gen. Macarthur claimed only a
battleship of the Yamasiro Glass
had been sunk along with several
cruisers and destroyers' and that
a japanese force east Of Samar to
the north had been beaten of and
three battleships damaged and
several cruisers and destroyers sunk.
Todays announcement made no
additional claims for the Samar

Seventh fleet losses were one escort

ion. Gen. Stilwell went into Burma
and attempted to protect the south
ern approach to the Burma Road.
This action resulted in a complete
failure. Gen. StilWell was forced
to retreat and the Burma Road was
lost. From that time on, the gen.
erals did not get along or see eye

defenses, and they both attempted
to fight the war by themselves.
