Attention Glover. Sitrep 2.

Mr. Eates said local Communists were trying to elicit more attention from China but what they were doing would not be tolerated.

He said the Communists while they had all along been acclaiming other bomb incidents had tried to deny any connexion with the deaths of the two children.
