Flood threat shifts Japanese strategy in central China
The surge of Yellow River floods may compel Japan to alter plans from Chengchow toward Hankow as dike breaks widen westward. The flood endangers supply lines, displaces millions, and could force a pause in advances while refugees flood west. Japanese forces reportedly advanced 15 miles up the Yangtze from Anking toward Hankow, with missionaries safe. In Peiping, universities and a French school defied orders to join anti Chiang Kai-Shek protests.
