Chungking, Nov. 1.
Reports circulated in London regarding the possibility of imminent peace in the Far East were strongly denied by well-informed Chinese circles in Chungking.
There is not the slightest sign," they say, "of any desire for peace in Chungking, either on the part of the Government or the public."
Chinese leaders, who recently returned to Chungking after touring the various fronts are alleged to have said:
"The people in Chungking cannot realize the strength of the Chinese forces in the field, who can hold their ground whatever changes in the international situation may oceur.'—Reuter.
