Turning to the Chinese Japanese-occupied areas, Dr. Kung exhorts them to órganise themselves and rise in arms to harass the enemy with guerilla tactics. Their activi- tles in the enemy's rear will greatly sid China's resk- tance.

Dr. Kung again expresses his confidence in China's final vic tory. He bases his observation on the following grounds:

First, Japan has been, defeated- in her scheme for a speedy vic tory and has suffered heavy losses during the past 15 months. The war is keeping a heavy drain on her material and man power. Anti-war sentiments are running high among her troops.

In North China, Cheklang-and- other provinces nominally under her occupation she is controlling only the towns and cities along the railways and highways" where. as Chinese local governments are functioning as usual and" guerilla bands are active in areas away from these communication lines.
