SHANGHAI. Mar 3 (LP)—Japanese
military' operations at Shanghai end-
ed with the Chinese driven 12 1-2
miles back from the city and Japanese
holding all territory contested in bluer
fighting here since January 28.
Cessation of Japanese military' ac-
tivities Just alter the Chinese declared
that the ‘fight has just begun" and
the Japanese submitted new drastic
peace proposals, was revealed in a
brief announcement by consul-general
Kununatsu Mural;
“Japanese military and naval au-
thorities. having accomplished their
avowed object of affording protection
to Japanese lives and property, order-
ed all military operations to cease
forthwith."
The Chinese forts at Woosung. and
Woosung Village were occupied by the
Japanese shortly before the operations
were halted A final two-hour shell-
ing enabled the Ja|ianese to take the
fortifications.
The Japanese military and naval
high command Issued statements Iden-
tic with that of the consul general
Gen. 8hirakawa. new commander ol
the military here, said
"We have decided to order the halt-
ing of our forces for the tfme being
at points actually held and to stop
fighting provided that the Chinese
forces do not resort to further hostile
actions."
The end of the Japanese offensive
found the countryside In ruins on an
18 mile battle line from the interna-
tional settlement to the Lion forest
ports on the Yangtze river.
At the doors of the settlement, the
once prosperous Chinese city of Cha-
pel was reduced to a mass of black-
ened remnants ol homes and build-
ings. Fires still burned In the ruins
ol cotton mills in the district.
With danger over, hundreds visited
what a few days ago was a no man a
land of sudden death and destruction
among abandoned and ruined dwell-
ings along Northszechuen road.
The lighting began at Cliapel Jan.
28, then spread over the 18 mile
front. Fierce coinbat continued until
yesterday, when the Chinese 19th
route army announced It was with-
drawing to Quinsan, 12 1-2 mil*
from Shanghai. The Chinese called
the movement a tactial withdrawal.
The JaiMuie.se claimed It was a rout.

Probe today that Miss Betty Gow
nursemaid in the Lindbergh home
had been questioned yesterday and
again today in the hope she could give
eome information leading to finding
the kidnapers.
There was no indication she could
amp! fy her original story that she
found the baby's crib empty Tuesday
night about 10 p m.
Mrs Dwight Morrow, grandmother
of the stolen baby, was among those
who held the theory that the kid-
napers were persons unusually familiar
with the habits of the Lindbergh
family, the location of the nursery,
and the fact that, contrary to custom,
the Lindbergh* extended their week-
end stay in the country instead of
stopping with Mrs. Morrow at Engle-
wood, N J.
This theory kept state troopers ac-
tive. They had questioned ail avail-
able persons who had had employ-
ment around the estate, but it was
said this questioning had developed
no real information and cat no
suspicion.
Meantime, mystery covered the
Lindbergh family's movements. The
colonel and his young wife, still bore
up courageously under the strain of
uncertainty and waiting. They were
ready to pay the $50,000 ransom, and
rtate police said Lindbergh had estab-
lished a contact with the kidnapers.
Through the night, came word it
was only a matter of hours until baby
Lindbergh would be restored. Yet
as dawn turned today, and the day
passed on into noon, there was no
positive evidence that this was to
come true.
However, mysterious developments
indicated that the dwellers on Row-
land mountain still lived with hopes
of early restoration of fair haired,
