When, on June 15 1943, [[Owen Lattimore]] instructed Joseph Barnes<ref> http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,791284,00.html Tongue-Tied , Time magazine, Feb. 07, 1944.</ref> to replace the non-Communist Chinese of the Office of War Information (OWI) with Communists, OWI did so. On July 14 [[Thomas A. Bisson]], in the [[Institute of Pacific Relations]] publication, ''Far Eastern Survey'', referred to Moaist forces as the "democratic China." The disinformation was widely repeated among journalists and academics. In July and August 1943, the Chinese Communist forces -- in the midst of the war -- joined with the Japanese armies to inflict a serious defeat on the [[Kuomintang]] troops allied with the United States. <ref>[http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/6315/yaltabet.html ''The Yalta Betrayal'', Felix Wittmer, 1953, pg. 36.</ref>
