PEIPING IN FEAR OF ATTACK ON WAR ANNIVERSARY
Peiping, July 6.
The approach of the first anniversary of the begin- ning of the war has led to careful precautionary measures in view of the widespread belief that guerillas who have been pouring into the Peiping area in increasing numbers will endeavour to attack the Javanese garrisons, even Peiping itself, on July 7.
The Japanese garrisons have barricaded some towns within fifteen miles of Peiping, while from to-day until Thursday, Peiping's thirteen gates will be closed in order to better control the Chinese entering and leaving the city.
