Declaration Of Manila
As Open City Is Hit
By Soviet Paper
'Petoin Methods Were
Used in Philippines,
Proydu Declares
pvtbe Axsociated Press.

By the Associated Press.
KUIBYSHEV. Russia, Jan. L.
The Communist party paper Pravda
yesterday scornfully criticized the
declaration of Manila as an open
city, saying the Philippine capital
could have resisted as have Lenin-
grad and Moscow and borne bomb
ings such as London did.
Its article, entitled "Petain meth
ods in the Philippines" said, mo
one would blame a ladybird for
peacefulness and non-resistance, for
she has no hooves or horns and no
brave heart; but what win you say
about a man, armed and able to
resist, who, as soon as the enemy
appears, lies on his back, stretches
out his feet and shows complete
humility.
"Of such a person we speak with
contempt as of a coward. The same
applies to q people who, similar to
a ladybird, declare an open city"
Noting that Paris also was de-
clared an open city and as result
suffered degradation" Pravda said,
what difference is there between
the open city OF Paris and Manila?
None"
Manila, 1t said, could have held
out a siege as has Tobruk. The
enemy would have felt it had met
a brave city. Air raids have not
frightened Londoners. The world
knows how Leningrad and Moscow
behave under Fascist bombs, and
no less brave were the defenders of
TObruk."
