The Japanese General Headquar- ters told the United Press that there "must be some mistake and we are Investigating. There no reason for singling out Major Hunt. Some in- dividual has made a silp somewhere and this will be remedied."

The signs were taken down in the afternoon. It is understood they were posted as a result of a mis- understanding by Japanese sentries who misinterpreted remarks heard made by Major Hunt at one of the barriers.

Major Hunt declared he would take up the matter with the British Consulate. He said he was going to the barriers when he saw the signs and Immediately reported the mat- tar to the Consulate-United Pres.
