The Japanese to-day ordered a general attack on the Chinese brigade and occupied the walled city of Fanchong following the Chinese burning of Tungho city, compelling the Japanese gar'rison to take refuge in transports on the river to escape tho fire. Afeanwhile the League of Nations Commission is unable to make much headway in the investigation of the Afanchurian situation, owing to the fighting in the majority of districts.
