Summaries

Described by Japanese sources of the time as a record of the Chinese city and the history of the "Sino-Japanese Affair" up to the present. A propaganda picture which naturally is very critical of the Chinese government prior to the Japanese Occupation, and which focuses on the Japanese troops stationed there. Of particular note is a memorial to a fallen Japanese soldier. Contemporary sense filmed in December 1937 and January 1938.—Stuart Galbraith IV
