Six “weeks afler Japan first began landing in southern Indo-China 2 still has, according to the most reliable estimates by observers on the spot, less than 40,000. men, or considerably - less than her Vichy-accepted quota, stationed throughout the colony. The: Japanese are busy‘ buflding barracks at the airport ' outside Saigon, ‘at Pnom:Penh, capital of Cambodia, and elswhere in the south.: ‘Obviously they are digging infor a long stay and some reports insist that if less than two divisions are on hand now eight. more are scheduled fo be sent in during the autumn, Nevertheless, the Japanese are’ ‘merly in’ the first stages of entrenchment in Indo-China and are making haste with what may be significant slowness: : At present the Japanese are believed /to have about 150 airplanes scattered: in eight Indo-China, airports,’ or certainly a maximum of 200, Perhaps 50 of these -are at Saigon where planes keep roaring over the suburbs. daily,” apparently to impress the French and natives.

What is most impressive about the Japanese military throughout Camia and Cochin-China is the lity of their equipment. They keep artillery and tanks out of sight as yet but have brought in literally thousands of army trucks, most of them brand new American makes. Thanks to the excellent French-built main highways troops have swiftly been transported tof strategic southern centers, about | 10,000 now being in the neighhorhod of Pnom-Penh ‘and another in Siemread.

Take Best Houses

In numerous key cities in southern Indo-China the Japanese military occupies many public buildings afd is ‘requisitioning hundreds of the private homes of the French who yield them with the greatest reluctance, especially as rental rates are frequently not fixed in advance. Much French resentment has been aroused in Pnom-Penh because virtually every one of its fine, modern public schools has been taken as a barracks for Japanese troops while the children of French and native taxpayers are now compelled to resume . - classes in ‘thatched native huts. © 3 Japanese officers reveal a weaknéss for the most handsome villas in the residential section, especially corner locations. Japanese officers: appear to have originally ‘ordered their troops to maintain correctness in all contacts with the public'and tactfulness has generally prevailed. | The Japanese soldiers are now becoming more restive and more inclined to strut their stuff.
