THE NEW YORK TIMES December 14, 1937.

* The Nanking China Rape Massacre by Japanese Troops
* USS Panay incident in China

The front page has a one column heading: "NANKING OCCUPIED, JAPANESE REPORT" with subheads. (see)
Other news, sports and advertisments of the day including much on the recent USS Panay incident on the Yangtze River in China with photo. (see) Complete in 52 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Nice condition.
