INTENSIFIED SPIRITUAL MOBILIZATION WILL BE CHINA'S ANSWER TO JAPAN'S UNDERHAND MACHINATIONS, SAYS CHIANG

CHÙNGKING, Aug. 11 (Central)- To match the underhand machinations of the traitors we shall answer with an intensified spiritual mobilization of the people; while "as a retort to the Japanese move to undermine the national dollar we shall consolidate our economic structure by rehabilitating our local finance," declared Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek to-day when he issued another eloquent appeal to the nation's gentry and intellectuals urging them to assist the Government in two major tasks: spiritual mobilization of the people, and reorganization of regional finance and establishment of local self-government.

Blackout Over England Called Great Success

400 Sq. Mile Area With 8,000,000 People Looks Like Scattered Villages

LONDON, Aug. 11 (Reuter)-London was like a dead city during the great "black-out" which darken- ed half of England, from midnight to dawn while raid- ing bombers in Thursday's air exercises droned across the land from the continent. But for a few lights which winked brilliantly the vast city was almost completely shadowed.
