NEW JAPANESE STRATEGY WITHDRAWALS IN CHINA
Reports from Chungking describe Japan pulling back nearly half its gains in China to focus on last-ditch defence of Manchuria and Korea. Walter Rundle cites American sources noting withdrawals from south east China and new offensives aimed at delaying the Allies toward terms short of unconditional surrender. General Wedemeyer returns to Chungking as Chinese and American forces assess lines along the Yangtze, with key movements around Wenchow and Lachow and Chinese efforts to hold vital waterways and rail links into Indo China.
