Japan May Seek Overland Burma Route Cut to China Aid
The Japan Times and Advertiser hinted Japan may launch an overland Burma road campaign to cut China war supplies and pressure the United States. It said a direct march via French Indo China could be possible and warned the US to choose between backing Chiang or letting Chungking fail as Burma traffic has already slowed from air raids. Kurusu’s U.S. trip is described as Japan’s final diplomatic effort to ease Washington deadlock, with a wary hope force may be avoided.
