Singapore, May 30.

The R.A.F.'s front-line Malayan fighter and bom- bor force of 61 operational aircraft has a thankless role in the anti-bandit campaign. Since the emergency began in June, 1948, the force has flown 511′ strikes and 2,754 sorties. Yet of a total of about 1,200 terrorists killed in action the R.A.F. claims a maximum of 100 and says that this figure may be excessive.
