...some embarrassment the Chief of the Mongol Affairs Department of the Manchukuan Government, left Hailar last week for the great and little known lake of Bor Nor. With him he took a whole battalion of surveyors to establish 28 observation posts along the border, rectify the present "typographical errors" that show the Mongol border passing sometimes through the lake, sometimes around...
...Japan not only as a future base for the invasion of Northern China, but also as a prime point on the strategic caravan route to outer Mongolia and Russia. The brief & bloody capture of this little corner of disputed territory last week was an obvious Japanese threat to Mongol chieftains to mind their manners. Nanking's complaisance was a fair admission that China's Nationalist Government was resigned to the eventual loss of Chahar, probably in return for a promise that for a little while yet, Peiping and Tientsin will not be captured...
Based on the researches and arguments of Dr. Ales Hrdlicka. Bohemian-born curator of physical anthropology at the U. S. National Museum, the theory that North American Indians are of Asiatic origin has very nearly reached the status of a verdict by circumstantial evidence.

The Council of Generals took that view.

To Inner Mongolia the Nanking Government thereupon sent an envoy who ''granted local self-government," but persuaded the Inner Mongols to let Nanking act for themselves in matters of foreign policy...
Between Manchukuo and Outer Mongolia (Russian sphere of influence) lies the vast Inner Mongolian plateau, a flat wilderness of grass ruled by hairy, fur-clad Mongol princes under the nominal overlordship of China's Nanking Government. Last month from every corner of Chahar and Suiyuan Provinces the princes of Mongolia left their herds of horses, camels and sheep to ride toward the great Lama Temple at Bathahalak, 100 mi. north of Kweihwa. In a little valley they found it, an exquisite cluster of white Manchu buildings, gold-crested pinnacles, infested by bearded monks. They set up their fur yurts...
