NANKING CRUISERS' PURPOSE HERE
OFFICIAL EXPLANATION OF DASH TO HONGKONG
"The whole situation, now we are in British waters, is governed by international law, and we are very much in the dark regarding the progress and outcome of negotiations between the Canton and Nanking Govern- ments regarding the future movements of the Hai Chi and the Hai Shen," said Commodore T. Anthony V. Morse, Adviser on Training to the Chinese Navy, in the course of an interview on the Ning Hai this morning.
In response to a request from Admiral Chen, press representatives were granted a special interview on board the cruiser this morning. It was explained that the visit of the. Ning Hai and ships of the Central Government to Hongkong was purely to effect the safe transfer of the Hai Chi and the Hai Shen to the Central Government.
A flotilla of three vessels had been sent South forț that purpose. These were the Ning Hai, the Hai Yung

TOWNS SACKED DURING HURRIED RETREAT
Chengtu, June 24.
It is feared that many foreign priests have been murdered by retreating Communist soldiers in Sze- chuen, following bloody battles with Central Govern- ment forces.
Trench warfare has succeeded the mobile campaign against the Communists in north-western Szechuen. where the Reds, under Chu Teh, formerly operating in Kweichow and Yunnan, have finally effected a junc- tion with the Northern forces under Hsu Siang-chieh. The two Red armies met in the neighbourhood of Mow- hsien, Lifan and Weichow.
Three thousand Reds are digging in near Tayakou and other places south of Peichwan and are evidently determined to hold their positions at all costs.
