Material Passages:

TRADE a 8 DEC 1943

"E.X. (Hong Kong) is coming in for some very success- ful raiding from the air at the hands of the Americans, and the Japanese resistance is very poor indeed. One has the impression that they cant hold it against a serious effort at recapture. The food question is very serious in town and the Chinese ¡ing of-starvation and beri-beri in

large numbers." 14 BEC 1943
