(United Press Assn—Telegraph Copyright)
(Received September 10, 7.30 p.m.) HANOI, September 9.
The French-Japanese negotiations are reported to have reached a deadlock following the departure of two chiefs of the Japanese mission. French quarters are favourably impressed by reports of alleged negotiations between Washington and Moscow, which are regarded as of the highest importance to Indo-China’s future. The British United Press Batavia correspondent says that the Japanese delegation, arriving on September 12, will find the Dutch East Indies on a virtual war footing, with bomb shelters constructed and other air raid precautions organized. Volunteer forces training under martial law include anti-para-chute units. There is great public satisfaction at the arrival of a shipment of Curtiss fighters from America.
