SHANGHAI ENTERED
CHINESE NATIONALISTS COMMUNIST STRATEGY (10 a.m.) CHUNGKING. Aug. 26 National troops have entered Shanghai. General Chu-Teh simultaneously announced that Communist forces were marching on the city, where Chinese workers occupied Japaneseoperated factories in order to prevent looting and placarded the streets in preparation to welcome his troops. It is reported that national forces entered Wuhu into which the Communists earlier claimed that they had fought their way. It is not clear whether the Communists withdrew before the national troops entered or were ejected. A Communist communique states that their forces are attacking Japanese positions near Hongkong and are also pushing on towards Canton.
