Russians Halt Wheat Exports From New Chwang to Japan
News from Pekin reports the Russian administration at New Chwang has stopped exporting wheat to Japan. Over the past week Japanese buyers secured shiploads from New Chwang, with grain routed via Shanghai and eastern ports.

Large numbers of Russian civilians and soldiers and their families are moving into Manchuria, signaling a plan to rapidly settle the province ahead of a scheduled evacuation next fall.
