According to meagre reports just to hand, the Kwangsi Universit which had been bombed in un air raid recently, was again attacked this morning. Six bombs aro stated to have landed in the campus, causing considerable damage.

The announcement is wholly un- expected, as the U.S. Fleet has been concentrated in the Pacifle, since the Sino-Japanese crisis in 1031-32.
