...Russians withdrew, an estimated 60,000 Chinese Communists, equipped with Japanese arms, poured in with amazing rapidity; and more were on the way. Chungking's World Daily News asked the $64 question: "Who has made this possible?" The Russians had declined to open Port Arthur and Dairen-Manchuria's main harbors - to Central Government troops...
Every move so far, from Dairen to Batavia, has been according to orders and according to plan. The British went to Java to take the surrender of the Jap forces and protect Allied (i.e., Dutch) lives and property.

They will either meet Russian policy face to face, or glimpse its retreating back. Under the Sino-Russian treaty of August, Stalin promised to withdraw his Red Army from Manchuria on or about Nov. 15; now it looks as if the Central...
