Therefore, some be lieve, it may be a counter move to the iPHui-Ameriean Airways’ line, Japan has declared that she plans to survey deep sea fishing areas from the air. This also arouses misgivings, since it would bring Japanese flyers in the vicinity of Guam Island, which the United States may fortify. when the uon-fortitieation clause now governing the hold of Guam, lapses.
