ESTABLISHED 1870 CANTONESE MARCH TOWARD HANGCHOW Confident of Victory and Ulti-| mate Capture of Shanghai WASHINGTON STANDING PAT President Refuses “More Liberal Polics” and Even Decides to Stiff- en His Attitude Toward Protecting Amcricans. Shanghai, Jan. 29 (UP)—The Contonese armies today were push- ing toward Hangchow, stragetic point in their northward march upon Shanghai and the lines of Mar- shal Sun Chuan-I'ang, defender of the great trade port, were being drawn for the decisive battle. Fearful that Marshal Sun’s forces belicved to be inferior numerically and in equipment to the invaders, will crumble before the assault that will determine Shanghal’s fate, for- eigners were making preparations for a hasty exodus from the capital. The main body of the Cantonese §s now 100 miles south of Hangchow but an advance point has been es- tablished at Chuchow, further north. two divisions of troops, far ahead ot the malin body, have already menaced the advance posts of the efending armies. : Con(idgent of victory, the Canton- ese have made preparations for a triumphal march into Shanghai, where thousands of forelgners, in- cluding 4,000 Americans have sought safety. Marshal Sun, representative of the northern warlords, With but an inferior force, cannot hold out more than two weeks, if a direct as- sault is made, in the opinion of mili- tary experts. ¥ O prcliminary Fight. The movement of Marshal Sun's forees southward of Hangehow was given rise to the belief a preliminary struggle may develop in the vicinity of Chuchow. The Cantonese ad- ce units, under the generals of Marshal Chiang Kal-Shek, is within 20 miles of the Shanghai defense unit, and the possibility of an im- mediate clash in that section is not uniikely. While the Cantorese were march- ing through the Kwangtung, Kiangsi and Anhmei provinces, northward into Chekiang, south Chinese agents have conducted a widespread propa- ganda to prepare the people of Cheklang and Kiangsu, of which lat- ter province Shanghai {s the leading city, to receive the leading units.
