War turn in Asia as Japanese defenses falter
United Press war analyst Louis F. Keemle reports Japan faces a collapsing security line in southeastern China and Indochina. A Chinese advance toward Puoling Hengyang signals Japan losing the China corner, while Allied air and naval pressure threaten Canton Hong Kong sea routes. Reinforcements for Burma and new landing craft point to large scale amphibious operations to retake Malaya and Singapore, with British forces and Slim command poised for a Burma-Singapore campaign.
