A dispatch notes Japan's assertion of strong control along the Chinese coast and the extensive reach of Chinese guerilla bands estimated at over a million fighters. It cites rail and supply routes from Tonquin to Yunwin, hints at forced wartime shipments, and reports Chiang Kai-shek's efforts alongside Wang Ching-Wei as Moscow-like pressure mounts toward concessions or continued conflict.
