HANDICAP EFFORT
AGAINSTJAPANESE
Soldiers Good Fighters Al
though Underpaid, Under
fed, Ill-Equipped, Trained
By Robert J. Manning
United Press CorresDondent
Washington, Sept. 23 (U.R)
,Tie United States and China
are about to embark upon a be
lated but major effort to har
ness Chinese military and in
dustrial power for the final blow
against Japan, it was learned to
day. American officials hope that
despite the recent crumbling of
Chinese resistance inside China,
the cooperative American-Chinese
project will not be too
late. Reports of the loss of Al
lied forward air bases in China
hint that the aerial protection
the navy might have counted
on for the landing of amphibi
ous forces on the China coast
has been temporarily lost.
Details Ungiven
Details of the American-Chinese
industrial and military
plans are not known here and
probably will not be until
Chairman Donald M. Nelson of
the War Production Beard re
turns here and reports to Pres
ident Roosevelt. The President
and Prime Minister Winston
Churchill considered Nelson's
directive in Quebec last week
in planning the end of Japan.
Officials have been outspoken
. .... . ... r
in their criticism of the Chi-
nese military setup and have
placed most of the blame for
military reverses on the inex
perience and incompetency of
the Chinese military command
ers.
They point out, however, that
the Chinese soldier fights ad
mirably considering his condi
tion. He is underpaid, under
fed, ill-equipped and poorly
traned. His war lord command
er in many cases is more inter
ested in keeping his unit intact
than in fighting the enemy if
the cost is his own troops. There
is no overall coordinated strat-

egy among the various com
manders and the central Chi
nese government under Chiang
has only tentuous control over
the various Chinese armies.
Stilwell Successful
One of the possibilities Hur
ley is believed to be working on
is the expansion of the system
used in south China wheie Gen.
Joseph W. Stilwell has had rel
atively great success. But, it is
pointed out, his troops have had
the best American training, are
better equipped than most other
Chinese troops, are fed, equip
ped and commanded by Ameri
can officers, and fight under the
direction of a unified com
mand. If the war in Europe ends
soon, it is possible that the
United States would be able to
spare more American officers
to help train and coordinate
Chinese military effort in other
regions of China.
For some time, the general
feeling has been that the major
part of China's difficulties was
the lack of supplies. But it is
also believed that with better
coordination of what is avail
able with her own economic,
military and industrial re
sources, China could offer more
resistance to the Japanese who
now are penetrating dangerous
ly into vital areas of southern
China.
