furious air attacks.
A swarm Of IS Eipponess planes
swoOped down on the dsfenssless
city which had been stripped OF
all It's fortifieaiions and subjected
it TO one Of the most deadly air
raids Of the war.
Docks, piers and shipping in
Manila bay were subjected to
two-and-one-half hours Of indis-
criminate bombing this noon. The
planes then swooped down on the
business district and machine
gunncd the civilian population.
The loss Of life was reported 10
be very great The damage was
said to be INDISPENSABLE. Fires

lated all the rules Of international
law.
When Gen. Douglass Mac
Arthur declared Manila an open
city, he notified the Japanese that
he had Withdrawn all troops from
the city and had stripped it Of all
anti-aircraft guns and other de-
Tense machinery.
Acknowledging the raid, Tokyo
offered the untenable excuse that
II did not consider Manila an open
city, even after It had accepted
Gen. MacArthur's declaration.
Secretary Of State Cordell Hull
termed the japanese attack on
Manila as 'fiendish inhumanity. "
He emerged from a conference
to tell newspapermen that the
bombing was in keeping with the
barbaric cruelty practised by the
Nazis."

 Naturally, you cannot massage your own ankles enough to reduce them noticeably in Q week or SO. But if you keep up treatments morning after morning, you will see results in three or four months,
 Meanwhile, eat sensibly, and take Q daily long walk. DanciNy, too, Is good fop you.
 if the excess flesh remains, it would be q good idea to consult Q physician or clinic. For what you be- lieve to be flesh may Do chronic swelling, which calls for professional attention.
 Here is 8 simple and excellent massage routine:
 Rest your right foot on c low stool, or the humble Kitchen chair. Keep ing the knee straight, put some cold cream or c reducing cream on the ankle and leg. Now grasp the ankle with both hands and work upward to the knees. CONTINUED MASSAGE
 WILL SLIM ANKLES
 Really wcrkl You want to press your hand firmly Into the fiesh--only, don't bruise.
 Repeat the upward progress ten times. Begin over again and, grad- ually straightenlEg your torso, mas sage upward to thighs. Repeat with left leg.
 You shouldn't expect to slim your ankles down to Dietrich glamor all at once-but massage slowly and surely will bring the reward of flrm- or, slender ankles.
