Yenan Strips 10 Meet
Expected Chang Blow
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

YENAN, Nov. 18.-This incredible
Communist capital of China is be.
ing stripped for action in the ex-
pectation of assault by Central gov
eminent forces. The decision Of
Gen. Chou En-lai, the chief Com
munist negotiator, to return from
Marking means virtually clean
break with Generalissimo Chang
Kai-shek.
The gravity of the situation cannot
be overemphasized.
Yenan is becoming hourly more
IKE a ghost city-stripped of Its
hospitals, educational institutions,
factories and anything that could
hamper its defense or be of use to
an invader.
The Communists are convinced
that Chiang's troops will strike anew
at Yenan with the hope that once II
came into his hands he could pro-
claim to the world that the Com
munists have been reduced to i'm
potency.
Government observation planes
have been circling ominously low
sending frightened civilians into
their cave shelters. They draw no
fire.
Chinese Communist spokesman
commenting on refusal OF their
party to participate in the newly
convoked National Assembly at
Marking, termed the convention q
