New York. Aug. 9.
All war supplies to the Chiang Kaishek regime to be shipped from the United States will temporarily be held up at Manila pending the reopening of the Burma-Yunnan route, according to reliable shipping circles here.
Reports from the "New York Times" correspondent at Manila yesterday revealed that an American vessel arrived with 60 American-made military aircraft, various arms and 1,000 tons of ammunition to be sent to Chungking.
These war supplies were unloaded at Manila and are to be held there until the Burma route is reopened, the "New York Times" further reported.—Domei,
