BRITISH. EMBASSY IN SHANGHAI

No Move to Secure Quarters in Chungking Chungking, Mar. 18.

The British Embassy will remain in Shanghai while still keeping in touch with the headquarters of the Chinese Government by means of an office in which there will be at least an Embassy Secretary, it is learned here.

No effort is being made at present io find quarters for the British Embassy in Chungking, but the American Embassy will occupy the United States Naval Canteen building on the south bank of the Yangtze. The Soviet Embassy has taken large premises on the outskirts of the town, while other Embassies are making enquiries as to aecommodation.—Reuter.
