—(A. P.)-Japan's invading force

has broken through the strongest

Chinese defences and tonight was

less than 75 miles from Jehol City.

The 16th infantry under General

Tadashl Kawahara poured into Lingquan this incl-hing, passed through without stopping, capnred the town of Ssutaollng, a few miles west, and kept right on to Pek- ung on the motor highway whiph leads to the Capital.

t General Kunizc Matsuda, com- manding the 11th infantry, moved down fl-om the noxuh, having cap- tllred Chlenplng, to join General Kennosukc Mogfs fourth cavalry which was waiting at Chillfeng. The cavalry took Chihieng without a fight, for when they came within sight of the city Shi Wen, the Chin- ese commander, already had holst-

‘cd the flags of Japan and Man- chukuc. Apparently hc was willing to throw in his lot with General Moghand join the final advance against Jehol City.

Dispatches from that Capital this evening said two Japanese planes had bombed the new airdrome near the city. All through the previous (stages of the advance air raids have preceded the attack cf the main force.

I General Tang Yu-Linbn, provin- cial Governor oi Jeholphas given no sign of his intentions. The Jap- unese still hope he will surrender, and they welcome reports of friction between Tang and Marshal Chang Hslao-Liang, Commallder-in-Chiei in North China.

The worst of the fighting in the mountains apparently is over. but there have been skirmishes, some of them heavy, indicating that the brokenChincsc forces are worrying the Japanese flank, One such fight was reported east of Chihfeng, and others on the line of march from Lingyuan.

Part of thc advancing forces are moving west along fairly good roads by motor truck and armored cars from Lingyuun. Dispatches reach- ing here indicated that should the resistance encountered in the next few days be no more serious than that already overcome, the Japanese will make good their- prediction that Jehol City will fall before another week has passed.
