BITTER CAMPAIGN AGAINST REDS
Remnant China Forces HO LUNG AN ELUSIVE LEADER Moves in the Mountains By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. ( Received April 12, 11.25 p.m.) Shanghai, April 12. Chiang Kai Sliek is to-day waging a bitter ami most difficult anti-lted campaign against the remnants of forces which are operating in the provinces of Kweichow and Hunan under (lie notorious leader, Uniting, directed by Soviet agents. All efforts to engage him in a decisive battle have been futile since tlie Reds are continually moving through mountainous territory. However, Chiang’s forces drove tlie attacking force toward Szechwan, several heavy engagements resulting in the death of the notorious leader, Chutes, whose troops were responsible for tlie capture of the missionaries, Messrs. Hayman ami Bosshardt, whose fate is still unknown. So long as the Reds continue their (lodging tactics there is little possibility of a quick termination of the present campaign.
