SITUATION IN CHNA
(Anchorage Times)
.....The Japanese offensive
in China aims to cut that
countrv ,in two and. appar
ently. the invaders have an
opportunity to accomplish
their purpose.
It will, no doubt, sur
prise Americans to hear,
via the New York Times
correspondent, that “an
unfriendly fitontier still
separates nationalist Chi
na from the so-called Com
munist China.” The writ
er adds that there is even
“some fighting between
Marshal Yen Hsishan’s
troops and those of the
Comunist Eighth Route
army.”
While the people of this
country should keep an
open mind in regard to
developments in China,
news dispatches telling of
serious differences that di
vide the Chinese themsel
ves, cannot be ignored.

lay and saving trouble.
Beginning October 2, the Sec
retary said, individual owners or
co-owners, of Bonds can turn
them into cash by presenting
them to any commercial bank
which has qualified for this ser
vice. The bank will pay the re
demption value of the bonds im
mediately following satisfactory
identification, and without charge
to the bond owner.
An effect expected from this
measure, may be to encourage
the purchase of Series E Bonds by
persons who have money on hand
and are uncertain as tio whether
it will be needed for personal or
family expenses.. Knowing that
Series E Bonds can be turned in
to cash immediately if emergency
requires, they probably will re
solvie their doubtis sin favor of
bond buying.
