LACK OF SUCCESS
CHINESE MILITARY FORCES THE LEADERS BLAMED LONDON, June 3. Alleging that the Chinese Army, under favourable conditions last year, abandoned important positions to the enemy without battle and used their troops to blockade the Eighth and Fourth Communist Armies, Mr Krainov, in the Moscow newspaper, Izvestia, stated that some Chinese military leaders were more concerned with .“ the liquidation of the partisan movement and blockading special frontier districts than with combating Japan.” Mr Krainov said the Chinese soldiers knew how to fight. His criticism was directed against their leaders and the Kuomintang, and he asserted that the latter, in Congress reports, sought an excuse for the lack of military success by alleging insufficient Allied aid. Mr Krainov declared that the eff<prts of democratic circles were met with the bayonets of the Kuomintang reactionaries every time any real democratisation of the country was attempted.
