was an unverified report that a

Unless the air, naval and land
strength of allied forces as
sembled on Australia Is material

in tho battle of Juva, any major

MANDALAY, Mar. 11 (UP)
British and Chinese armies in
Burma today defended a line
tunning from the Buy of Bengal
to the border of Thailand, be
hind which the Japanese were
massing thousands of picked
troops and planes for an all-out
drive to crush the lost allied re
sistance and open the road to
India.
Both wins-' of the line, the
British on the rifiht and the
Chinese on the left, were be
lieved in dRngcr of a swift and
major Japanese assault.
The British, withdrawn from
Rangoon and the southwestern
Burma peninsula, were hurried
ly entrenching farther north
whero they hod the advantage
of the 6000-foot Arakan moun
tain range, in hopes of saving
Ayknb. Burma's last port, near
the Indian frontier, and Mand
alay, tho provisional capital.
Zona Imperiled
Chungking dispatches quoted
Chinese military spokesmen as
saying that the Japanese might
strike Generalissimo Chiang Kai
Shek's crack armies on the left
wing at any moment. In hopes
of driving a wedge 200 miles

The whole Burma war zone
