BOMBING ATTACK
WUSIH TO NANKING. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) Received November 23, 12.55 p.m. LONDON, Nov. 22. The Times’ Shanghai correspondent says that the Japanese are bombing every centre from Wusili to Nanking, particularly the positions between Wusili and Kiangyin. The artillery then lays a barrage in advance of the infantry, after which the bombers make way for the armies crawling behind them by damaging the defensive positions, scattering concentrations and paralysing troop movements and the transportation of supplies, a process which, without aerial • resistance is simple and effective and cannot be opposed by armies so unequally equipped as the Chinese. 4
