General Dai Li and the Sino-American Co-Operative Organization
(Collier's, 1946)
Kind words are written herein by Lt. Commander Charles G. Dobbin regarding the "Himmler of the East", General Dai Li(1897 - 1946), founder of China's secret police under Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek (1887 – 1975). Written in 1946, this reminiscence concerns the tight cooperation that existed between General Li's guerrilla units and the American military (Sino-American Co-Operative Organization: S.A.C.O.) during the later years of the Second Sino-Japanese War. Dobbins emphasized how deeply General Dai Li's intelligence operatives were able to circulate during the period in which U.S. Rear Admiral Milton "Mary" Miles commanded the S.A.C.O. troops.

| The Japanese Homefront (Ken Magazine, 1938)
This 1938 article concerned the gas rationing and and other assorted inconveniences that the Japanese population had to suffer during the Sino-Japanese conflict. The reporter was surprised to discover that the general citizenry was kept in a reasonable state of ignorance as to their military's intentions in China:"[The] Japanese behind the lines actually believe that their armies are marching to help the Chinese, to establish peace and to rid the world of the communist devil. Consequently, there is no hatred against the Chinese people. The often cited example of the Chinese community, living in Tokyo undisturbed and at ease, is no figment. Chinese dressed in their national costumes, have been among crowds that saw Nipponese soldiers march to the front and they were not molested." Some attention is paid to the sacrifices made by the Japanese industrial classes, such as the Yasuda, Iwasaki, and Mitsui families.
