JAPAN AND CHINA
LULL IN HOSTILITIES
CONFERENCE AT NANKING
PLANS AND POLICY
Dntled Presn Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. • SHANGHAI, March 20. Despite the efforts of the Chinese Press and official forces to create an impression that the Chines^ are continuing to offer serious resistance, Japanese and other reports indicate that comparatively little fighting, except skirmishing and sniping, is proceeding. The lull in the present hostilities is not regarded as indicating a slackening of the Chinese determination to resist, but is regarded more hopefully in view of the pending significant conference at Nanking between General Chiang Kai-Shek, Mr. Wang ChingWei, President of the ."-.cecutive Yuan, who recently returned from Europe, and Mr. T. V. Soong, Finance Minister, regarding future policy toward Japan. Peking reports state that twelve medical- units which operated -in North China during recent fighting tended Chinese wounded numbering approximately 8000, nearly 4000 of whom are in Peking and Tungchow hositals.
