THIS MORNING'S
FIRST RAID ON CANTON
Canton, To-day, 7 a.m.
The Japanese again raided Canton during the night, dropping several bombs in the northern and eastern suburbs. The damage at present cannot be ascertained.
Two alarms kept the city in suspense all night but as far as could be seen with the naked eye, only a single Japanese plane appeared at about 4 o'clock this morning, and within two minutes, five bomb explosions shattered the stillness of the night.
To weary foreigners on Shameen the response of the local anti-aircraft guns appeared to be only slight, but gunfire was faintly heard down river.
Tonight's invader also flew over Shameen en route to his objective and on the return journey was sighted in the moonlight particularly low over the British Bridge.

At 6.30 this morning the third air raid alarm was sounded. Reuter.
