Communists In Race For
Rich Manchuria Prize

CHUNGKING, March 11-R)-
Chinese government and Commune
list reinforcemsnts raced Monday
for Mukden, Manchuria metropolis
where street battles were reported
already in progress in the wake of
mysterious Russian withdrawal.
From Hardin came word, too, Of
Russian martial law and house to

Not Confirmed
The Russian departure from
Mukden still was not officially con-
firmed, although enthusiastically
reported from many sources.
Chinese officials in Chungking said
they intended to inquire formally
whether it were true, and whether
it portended a general Soviet re-
tirement from Manchuria.
One report from Changchun,
capital of Manchuria, said the Rus
slams from Mukden were stopping
there. Another, however, sail
Changchun was full of rurnors that
the Soviet forces intended to quit
that city also.
Search For Arms
Another Chinese National press
dispatch said the Russians declar-
ed martial law in Hardin, $50 miles
northeast of Changchun, from 10
a. m. Saturday to 10 a. m. Sunday,
during which they made a house
toulouse search for arms.
The same dispatch said Com
munists were concentrating at La
ling, IL miles from Hardin, with
the intention of trying to seize the
city should the Russians withdraw.

Some years ago, a local soft

Pop, a wise old man, didn't
