CHINESE DISLODGED
PASS INTO JEHOL
PEACE NOW PROBABLE
SHANGHAI, March 21. Crossing the Great Wall nine miles south-west of Hsifengkow,-and making severe attacks in .two directions, the Japanese succeeded in dislodging the Chinese, whose prolonged resistance at this • important pass interfered with the Japanese complete and effective occupation of Jehol.
Mr. Wang Ching-Wei, President of the Executive Yuan, addressing Central Government officials" at their weekly memorial meeting, indicated the possibility of negotiations with Japan, but emphasised the necessity of continued resistance until the proper time arrived for negotiation. However, the Nanking Government realises that such efforts are futile and is now devoting considerable thought to the advisability of terminating the hostilities speedily and enabling the Central authorities to consolidate their newly-acquired power in North China as the result of the downfall of Marshal Chang Hsueh-Liang.
