Hankow, Jan. 15. Extensive preparations which are now being made by the Chin- ese and Japanese in the region of the Tientsin-Pukow Railway, 'north of Hsuchow, appear to indicate that important operations, which may perhaps be of a decisive char- acter, are imminent in this sector. According to Chinese military. circles in Hankow, the Japanese are now concentrating large forces In the region round Taining, west of the Tsinan-Hauchow Railway, which include units from Tenisin. The Japanese plan is to establish. contact between the front on the northern sector of the Tientsin- Pukow Railway and the front on the southern sector of that rail- way, and it La belleved that the Japanese are anxious to launch Meanwhile the War Office has China, he added, was resolved their attack before the Chinese issued a statement on behalf of

HITLER INSULTED
The Japanese apparently think that the present moment, when the Chinese forces, particularly those
Shantung, are undertaking complete reorganisation, is parti- cularly favourable for an attempt at a break through to the south.
CHIEF OBJECTIVES
The Japanese probably also hold the view that it will be extremely difficult for them to make any ap- preciable progress in the sector around the southern section of the Tientsin-Hsuchow Railway as long as stiff Chinese resistance on the northern sector continues.
