LARGE JAPANESE AIRCRAFT CARRIER SUNK BY CHINESE Series Of Lightning Raids On Ships And Positions
Shock Tactics In Yangtse River Succeed
Hankow, To-day.
One Japanese aircraft carrier and two destroyers are claimed to have been sunk on the Yangtse and the Japanese aerodrome at Wuhu is said to have been heavily bombed yesterday morn- ing, according to the Chinese Aviation Head- quarter's announcement. Taking advantage of the fact that the Japanese pursuit planes were probably not patrolling the aerodrome at night, Chinese bombers took off before daybreak in the direction of Wuhu, where it is claimed they bombed the Japanese aerodrome with results unknown, owing to the pitch darkness.
