Only two days ago the official news agency said the Na-tionalist-air force was concentrating here to join an all-out defense of the city. Meanwhile garrison headquarters here threw a division of reinforcements into the battle for Kashing, bidding to check a Communist drive up the railroad. to Shanghai. Troops on Shanghaf's western perimeter 12 miles from downtown began chopping down groves of trees in the Hungjao residential area to build tank traps and blockhouses.
