Continued from Page D reports circulated here today that Japan has proposed that Thailand grant Japan military atld naval air bases and virtual trade monopoly in exchange for the French Indo- Chinese province of Laos and the ancient Cambodian City of Angkor,
 According to these reports, Japan seeks to control virtually the entire output of Thailand rubber, tin and rice, in addition to the strategic bases.
 (Tokyo reported today that Thai- land has granted diplomatic recog- milton of Manchukuo, effective to- day, and a spokesman interpreted this move as decision to "foresake the Anglo-American camp and join Japan's program for constrction of greater East Asia co-proSperity sphere" A financial agreement whereby Thailand banks would ex- tend a 15,000,000 yen credit to Japan presumably for the purchase of rice, was reported in Tokyo).
 Diplomatic reports circulated here for several days that Japan has suggested informally to Thailand that Thailand agree on 8 program of military cooperation with Japan and enter Japan's East Asia CO., prosperity sphere.
 May Go Too Far
 However, belief persisted that Japan would not go so far in Thai land as to arouse new economic re- prisals or. other action by the Am glo-A Dutch bloc in the Far East.
 However, L. s. Amery, secretary for India, told the house of com mons today that danger of exten- sion of hostilities to the region of India still threatens and that the threat exists in the east as well as the west.
 The British also publicized ex- tensively today the great military reinforcement of Burma which would be immediately threatened by any Japanese move in Thailand.
 GA Thailand spokesman said ai Singapore yesterday that his gov- ernment will not grant bases to any power. He denied flatly that any agreement had been reached either with Britain or Japan concerning bases in Thailand).
 PROTEST ON BOMBING
 London, Aug. 1.-(UP)-The Ma tional Council of the Peace Pledge Union wrote Prime Minister Win- ston Churchill today prote3,-ng against the speech in which he said recently that .Londoners would not approve an Anglo-G German agree ment not to bomb cities.
 To the best of our knowledge and belief the people of any bombed city would welcome a convention under which the bombing of all cities would cease and we are cer- tainly convinced that there is no real desire for revenge or reprisals in the shape of making the Ger mans suffer in their own home land," the council wrote.
 We deplore the fact that the British government is deliber- ately approving the character of total warfare by accepting as part of their plan the increasing bomb ing of civilians"
