. v RED CHINESE KILL 20.000IN MASSACRE {Trap Provincial Troops War- ring on Banditry—Foreign Boats Attacked. By the Associated Press. HANKOW, China, December 8.— ‘Trapped between the towns of Kwang- shui and Hwangan, less than 100 miles ! north of this important center, nearly 20,000 provincial troops have been massacred by a like number of bandit Reds, reports from Northern Hupeh Province said. The loss yesterday was the heaviest suffered by the government since the inauguration of its campaign against banditry soon after the end of the re- cent civil war. Chiang Kai-Shek, generalissimo and President of the Chinese Republic, to- day has taken command of the drive | against communism throughout North- central China. However, this secmed not to have deterred the hundreds of bands of roving Reds, for they continued attacks against shipping on the Upper Yangtze River with undiminished vigor. American, French, British, Japanese and Chinese vessels suffered. A Chinese seaman on a Japanese cargo carrier was the only fatality reported yester- day, although several ships were badly damaged by gunfire from Communist shore batteries. President Chiang declassd the gov- ernment would send 300,000 troops, 20 Emboms and 30 airplanes against out- ws in the Upper Yangtze Valley if necessary. The President-generalissimo yesterday @again brought into play the famed Nanking “silver bullet.” He announced that “those who surrender, bringing with them arms and ammunition from the enemy, will receive a reward and pardon, while those responsible for the capture, dead or alive, of any Commu- &% leader will be richly rewarded.” SPECIAL NOTICES.

By the Assoclated Press. DANVILLE, Va.,, December 8.—Dan- ville police today used tear bombs to break up mass picketing at the gates of the Riverside Cottcn Mills, whose union employes are on strike. There were no fights and no cne was injured. Meanwhile National Guard troops on duty at the Dan River Mills in the neighboring village of Schoolfield were called upon to disperse: crowds. This was done without disorder. Police later arrested approximately 35, after the strikers, dispersed by the | tear gas, began to work their way back to the Riverside Mill gates. Strikers, estimated at 1,500, were gathered around the eight gates of the Rive.side Mill when the mill opened with non-union workers. The attempt to disperse the crowd was the first in- stance of disorder at the mills within the city. Cries of “Arrest us all” and “If you arrest any of us you must serest us all” greeted commands of police to disperse. Under city regulations not more than six pickets may be stationed at any one gate to the mill. Approximately 4,000 textile operatives, H members of the United Textile Workers of America, are on strike here and in Schoolfield. Chief Martin told newspaper men he did not think it necessary to ask for the assistance of the Naticnal Guards- men, but that this would be done if necessary. . e When a new department store was opened in London recently Queen Mary Wwas among the first to enter, and she spent nearly two hours in shopping.
