NIGHT SNIPING
NORTH-WEST FRONTIER. SITUATION UNCHANGED. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) Rugby, August 16. The situation on the North-West Frontier of India is practically unchanged. Small parties of Shinwaris from Afghanistan are reported to have joined the Upper Mohmands, but there has been no fighting beyond night sniping of the camp at Dand and frequent firing at aeroplanes. There have been no internal reactions to the transborder trouble beyond a slight recrudescence of the Red Shirt movement, but it is stated that North-West Frontier Province villagers are receiving the Red Shirt agitators very coldly. Rain has fallen in the Ghalanai region, damaging the roads, and the British column has moved to Katsai, where hostile tribesmen are reported.
