Both Chinese and Japanese rushed troops to the Paoshan-Lotten-Kaitlns line northwest of Shanghai for an expected major battle along the wedge-shaped front Japanese have driven Into Chinese territory. The battle may determine Shang hai's fate. Chinese were evacuating from oth er areas to strengthen their forces along the critical line and meet Ja pan's first major offensive.

Whan r poo Barred The barrier which Chinese recently built across the Whang poo river op posite the French concession was ex pected to play a vital part in the conflict. It t prevents Japanese war ships from operating in areas south of Shanghai. It was the second time since Shang hai hostilities started that Americans were killed or wounded on shipboard.
