Still Fire On Planes On Burmese Front
(Rec. 1 pm.) RANGOON. August 20. Artillery is being used in Burma to tell the Japanese about the. Emperor's orders. Instead of firing shells, the guns are firing tightly-packed wads of leaflets. A Burmese canoe filled with leaflets and containing dummy figures stuffed with leaflets was pushed off down, the Pegu■Sittang Canal towards the Japanese lines. There is no sign of surrender, and planes which flew over Moulmein were again fired on.
