CHRISTMAS PROMISE TO BE RENEWED?
PLEBISCITES NOT Japanese Again Talk About
POPULAR
London, Oct. 9. Tendencies aiming at dispensing altogether with the holding of plebiscites in Cdechoslovakia are becoming more pronounced, ac-| cording to a statement made by an authoritative source.
Should the decision to this effect be ultimately reached it is obvious that the British Legion would not need to leave for Czechoslovakia, ---Titansocean.
Landing!
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT)
Canton, October 9.
Hankow
Persistent reports from Shanghai. London and even stated that Japanese forces will soon invade South China and that over 30.000 soldiers have arrived in Formoss preparatory to the at- tack.
Governor Wa Te-chen and military officials here are ready for any emergency, as threats of attack have been current since last Christmas when General Li Fu-lin was sought by the Japanese to set up a puppet regime and refused to have anything to do with it.

The small islands of the -coast of Walyang in East Kwangtung are. occupied by Japanese bluejackets. whose number is said to have in- cressed alightly. The number of destroyers has also increased, but | confirmation is not available. “
It is learned, however, that the 30.000 troops at Formosa are new recruits to replace the seasoned in- sular soldiers who have been sent to the Yangtze front.
TO UPSET KOUCINE
One object of these rumours is to upset normal life here. as condi- tions are rapidly returning to normal. Another motive is to harass the authorities, so that the Japanese may achieve political ob- jectives side by side with the threat of military force.
The populace here is quite calm despite these" rumours. More peo- ple are now returning here from Hongkong. This is due to their confidence in the Government.
Governor Wu Te-chen has given instructions to all senior officers of the Peace Preservation Corps. of which he is the commander-in- chief, in the event of the landing of Japanese forces.
All divisional commanders who came back here for new orders have again left for their garrison posts.
