THE CHINA MÁIL, JANUARY 29, 1941.

STEADY TRICKLE OF GERMAN 'PLANES OVER EAST COAST THE BACK

THE GERMAN AIR FORCE sent a steady trickle of 'planes over the eastern and south- eastern counties of England yesterday, after leaving London and most of Britain severely alone for eight consecutive nights and almost all the intervening hours of daylight.

An Air Ministry communique issued last evening stated it was believed some of the lone raiders were fulfilling the purpose of re- connaissance to report on the weather.

The London area had four alerts. After the third a basket of incen- dlary bombs fell in one district.

Trolley-buses were held up while wardens, police and civi- lians, benefiting from the exper- ience of the recent fre-raising at- tempts by night, quickly put out! the incendiaries with sandbags conveniently resting against lamp- posts and at street corners.

KING WITH THE R.A.F.

The King, who is one of the busiest men in Bri- tain's war effort, yester- day, accompanied by the Queen, had a long talk with Air Marshal W. Sholto Douglas, Comman- der-in-Chief of the Fight- er Command, about night| fighters and the difficul- ties about intercepting enemy bombers at night.

The King talked to a young squadron-leader, commander of one of the crack night fighter squadrons, who told him, “I think may be going to be mu :h more successful in the future, Sir."
