M ,AP) The On I ted States marines and British troops offered tonight to ld with drawal of a Chinese battalion, trap per by Japanese, to and the menaoe of stray . bullet falling Into Shang hai's International settlement with Its thousands of foreigners. Including Americans. The offer was refused. The defiant almost certainly doomed, battalion held grimly to a small area within Chinese Ohspel which the remainder of their army abandoned yesterday to flames and advancing Japanese. Crowds Watch Battle Crowds of foreigners and Chinese bed gathered on roofatops, despite a shower of machine gun bullets, to watch the battle along the settle ment's northern border when the American and Brltsh offer of aid was made. There was danger to the Interna tional settlement, too, on the western edges and along the French conces sion frontier, with a major battle In progress around Hungjao. suburb In which are located many of the city's finest homes. Brig. Oen. John C. Beaumont, ma rines commander in Shanghai, and the British major general, A. P, O. Telfer-Smolllet, connoted the em battled batrsllon In Chapel by a still serviceable telephone line con necting with a warehouse In the bat tle sone. The American and British com manders suggested that their forces be used to aid the beleaguered Chi nese In obtaining sanctuary south of Soochow oreek. Chinese Unworrled Reminded of the destruction that Japanese planes might cause to their position. Commander Col. Chin-Yuen replied: "We are not worried by the Japan ese planes and we're prepared lor their Infantry." That the final hour of the doomed battalion was at hand seemed cer tain when a Japanese navy spokes man declared Nippon's bluejaeketa would mop up all scattered Chinese units In Chapel. Japanese naval headquarters ad vised United States marines to take precautionary measures against pos sible severe - action to wipe out the Chinese battalion, oppoalt one see tton of marine defense lines. Designating the Chinese detach ment as stragglers, tbs navy spokes man predicted they soon would be killed. , Silo ID A YS 2 ?
