LONDON, July 17.

On the other hand nearly every- one likes an occasional flutter, much in the same way that people have a few bets without being inveterate gamblers, or two or three drinks a day without falling under the category of habitual topers. There is Saturday night, and an occasional birthday party,dustrial companies. a promotion, or a departure on' leave. Those are the occasions when a dinner and a cinema are inadequate; when a midnight curfew at a cabaret is resented.

Peiping, July 18. An official communique states that reliable information has been received that the Kwantung Army has decided to send 20,000 Manchukue troops and the main part of the Japanese Eighth Division to retake Dolonor.

Mr. Chow Lu, spokesman, of ́ the South-west Political Council, declared to-day that the South- west will prevent Nanking forces from attacking the People's Anti- Japanese Allied Forces and have sent money for the support of these patriotic fighters, adding that this stand will be adhered to regardless of sacrifice or conse-- quences.

Such view is said to be shared by Messrs. Hu Han Min, Gen- - eruls Li Chung Jen, Chen Ming Shu and Li Chi Shen who are now staying in Hong Kong.
