A RECOMMENDATION THAT THE EXISTING MEASURES of boycott of Japanese goods be intensified is contained in a resolution passed by the World Conference for Action on the Bombardment of Open Towns and the Restoration of Peace recently held in Paris. It reads: "The Commission to investigate measures to be taken against the bombardment of open towns recommends

that organisations and Individuals should press their Governments to:

*Remove immediately every ban on the supply to weapons and apparatus of defence against air attacks for such bans are the reason for the relative impunity with which, the bombardments of civil po- pulations are carried out.
