Jap Bombers Kill 150, injure 500 In Raids
(By Tho Associated Prue)
CANTON, China, July ifs-J - liesc aerial bombs killed pro ly 150 persons and injured 500 others ln this South China city today. the third successive day in which Jap- anese warplanes have attacked.
Eighty-three dead were counted between the East Bund and Honam Island alone as rescue squads pulled mangled bodies of men. women and children from wrecked houses. Gruesome scenes resemb- led those of last month's bombings in which hundreds were killed.
Thirty-seven Japanese air raid- ers appeared shortly after day- break. directing their attack to- ward the Pearl River bridge and Ill" old bower plant.
Near the bridge, on the East Bund, one bomb struck the centre of a crolvdcd vegetable market. and 34 shattered corpses were counted there. The only living thin mp- peared to be a pet monkey, c gin- ed to a tree.
Crossing the bridge to Honanl. one saw 49 bodies laid out on the sidewalk.
In Canton Hospital. where Dr. Sun Yet-Sen studied medicine in his youth. surgeons were covered to the elbows with blood. some victims were lifted to the operat- lnv. table. only to be pronounced dead before a surgeon could pick up his scalpel.
The Associated Press corrapon- dent had to tie a handkerchief across hls face to keep out sicken- ing 51119115 of bombed areas. Prom the rlllns of one house there was a cry. then sudden silence. indicating one more dead.
Along the East Bund dismember- ed bodies were scattered among the fruits and vegetables of the wgeck- ed stands. A hand lay in the mid. die of the road. There also were arms and lezs. ,
SHANGHAI. July 14-—lAP) — A terrific all-day bombardment from airplanes and warships had failed tonight to silence Chinese guns of the Linn H111 forts dominating both the enirr l: lo Lake Poyanv and the Yzlngise River below Kin iang.
Chinese said they were complet- ing strong secondary field defences in the region.
Japanese said their rain of shells and bombs blew up Chinese obser- Yhllcll mats and badly damaged llllauy artillery positions on the hill- src.

“This does not mean. the introduction into Italy of Ger- man racial theories as they now exist or the assertion that Italians and Scandinavians are the same thing.

(By Guy I. Rhonda, Canadian Press Staff Writer)
LONDON, July 11--The impres- sion that the res nation of War Secretary Leslie ore-Bellaha is imminent gained strength tonight after LieuL-Colonel A. P. l-lenesge, lConservative, made an effort in the House of Commons to reopen the inquiry into alleged army breach of Parliament's privileges.
Colonel Heneagc said new infor- mation, available since the House Privileges Committee made its re- port. was inconsistent with that on which the report was based.
The privileges committee decided June 30 that a military court com- mitted a breach Parliament's l11SLOT1C privileges by summoning Duncan Sandys. a son-in-law of Winston Churchill, to tell where he obtained secret data on Great Bri- tain's anti-aircraft defences. Mr. Sandys is a Territorial Army officer and a Conservative member of Parliament.
Col. Heneage asked the Speaker.
Captain Edward A. HtzRoy, what could be done with respect to his new information. asked and‘ was granted leave to defer his decision until Monday as he could recall no precedent for the situation. , Mr. Churchill joined Colonel ll-lcneagc in today's move, saying he also had decided the committee ‘based its report on a mlsleadin mrescntation of facts, which mean censure was ‘aid upon innocent ,nlclnbers of the military court, lcitcd for a breach of privileges in lsummoning Mr. Sandys. Mr. ,Churchill himself is a member of (the privileges committee.
Neither Mr. Churchill nor Col- onel I-lelieagc hinted at what new information they had. It was un~ known whether they were referring
\ l to the same facts.
The ex lanation offered in in- formed crcles was that the sum- mons to Mr. Sandys did not some from the military court, but from an official higher up. Another ex- planation was that Mr. Sandys agreed to attend military court be- fore the matter was brought into the House, which would tend to tension as far as Mr. f-lore-Belisha is concerned.
Tllc War Secretary appeared to- day before the sr‘"'t committee which is invvtiwat‘ ~ the liabilit- ies oi members of Par lament und- er the Official Secrets Art. Mr. Sandy's charged that he had been threatened under the act because of the secret information he had obtained about anti-aircraft de- fences.
The matter first became public after Mr. Sandys had written a letter to the War Secretary giving notice of ll quest-ion he proposed to ask lll the House of Commons. The content of the letter indicat- ,crl lle was in possession o’ facts about Britain's anti-aircraft de- fen"es which were regarded as a closely-guarded military secret.
