SHIPS SEE DELIBERATE ACTS Collier's Correspondent Says Action Marked Definite End of White Control in Asia Japanese Triumph NEW YORK, April 22. fSpl) Recent Japanese attacks on British and American vensels In China were acts of deliberate warfare and def initely marked the end of whit oontrol In Asia, according to Jim Marshall, far eastern correspondent for Collier's, who returned to tlfln country after being seriously Injured In tho bombing of the U. S 8. Pansy. Mid -December, 1037, marked a t.u rn 1 ng pol n t in wor 1 d h i story, " Marshall writes In an article called "Farewell To Asia," "What the world heard about and talknd about wa the bombing mid sinking of the V. 8. S. Pnnny nnd throe American mer chant ships: the ahelltng-and bomb ing of three British river gunboats and several merchant ships on the Yangtze. ' ts "But these acts of deliberate war fare for tht ts what they were really marked the end of white American 1 and Brlttah dominance over one-third of the world's people and the definite triumph of Japan's long fight for the rulershlp of Asia and nearly one billion Asiatics, Cnl.i-Mowlpd Action "Tho attacks on British and Amer ican war and merchant vessels were nothing lean than cold-blooded, cal culated actions, designed solely for two purposes: to destroy the rem- , nants of white prestige In the Orient, I and to demonstrate to all Asia that America and the British empire arc 'afraid to fight Japan'." Marshall states that In keeping with this policy of "humiliation" Japan allowed Americana to visit the Hongkew section of the International Settlement only nt atated hours, and required that oven thoy they musi not smoke while passing a Japanese sentry. but must bow to him and ay "Good day I" "Even In the main settlement," he adds, "which has been International property for decades, American wo men are shoved off the narrow side walk by strolling. Japanese soldiers and clvllans, while mobs of Chinese look on and laugh." Marshall makes it clear that ho does not believe the United States should fight either for Ita rights or Its commercial stake In Asia, the great body of American public opin ion undoubtedly being against such a course, nnd soundly so. "But on the other hand." he says, "wo ought to stop talking about up holding American rights In China first, because we haven't any left and second, because the only way to win back our former right is by war. Being firmly against war. we must realize that, as Americans, we have fewer rights in Asia than the the Japanese have on the North American continent." Other Possessions Periled Taking up the territorial question, Marshall saya that "having been blasted out of China." tho United States retains Its few Oriental pos sessions, temporarily, by permission of the Japanese. He states that the Philippines could not be succcBfully defended and that Ouam, Midway and Wake Islands, vital trans-Pacific airline bases, could be taken by Japan In 34 hours. Hawaii, however, he believes to be impregnable, and a guarantee agalnA American invasion by Asiatics, as no attacking fleet or army In trans ports would dare leave on lta flank or In lta read the Hawaiian squad rons nf the world's fastest flhtlng planes. "But today." Marshall says, "and for as long as she is entangled In China, Japan's last wish is. for wai with America. Without the United States as a great storehouse of cot ton, lumber, copper and oil, Jansn cannot operate an Oriental war. A war with us would wreck her within two months and she knows It. We must, for cash, furnish her the sin ews not only for her Chinese con quests but for Ironically enough blasting us completely out of China morally and commercially."

April 33. JPj Japan is sacrificing much of the Hopeh province area she won eerier in the war to throw more troops Into the central China front. The greatest concentration of Chi nese forces since fighting started July 7, 1937, and continuing guerrilla raids against Japanese outposts have created for the Japanese a critical situation. The fighting is centered In south eastern Shantung, and along the Pelptng-Hankow and Pel ping -Sul yuan railways. Forced to muster every available man since the sharp defeat at Tal- erhchwang, first major loss In modern Japanese military history, the high command was said today to be with drawing garrisons from Hopeh, be tween the two railway.-. Reds Set I'p .Stale Chinese reds already have set up a Soviet state In the area, with an army of several hundred thousand troops, and It now seems likely all of central Hopeh soon may be under their domination. (Japanese still re tain firm control of Peiping and Tlentiiii. nizfor cities they won short ly after the conflict started with a clash of troops on midnight maneu vers outside Pel ping nine months ago.)
