I nits of, , the Japanese 28th army were attempting to retreat east toward Thailand in great numbers ami were threatening to Isola-t the guerilla party which called for immediate aid. The spokesman said there was no indication that the Japanese know or would agree to their country s capitulation and he added "under the present situation any soft attitude can only lead to danger.” British troops who tried to get eight Japanese soldiers to surrender along the Mandalay-Ran-goon road were forced to watch is seven killed themselves with hand grenades.

Delay Opening 01 Rockford Schools Polio Epidemic In Rockford At Peak | Rockford. 111., Aug. 21 (IT' Tin- board of education today delay..! the op.-ning date of schools 1 as medical authorities indicated : that the outbreak of infantile, paralysis apparently had reached its peak. Both the fall term, scheduled to start Sept 4, and high s.dio d football practice. scheduled to open Aug. 27, will he delayed al least a week. The disease has affected 151 persons and killed 17 since July 1. Dr. John R. Paul, poliomyelitis expert from Yale university here to -mpervise th-' '.'ampaign against lh<* dibCHsc. said that tiio nature of the last 10 cases led him to believe that the decisive point of the outbreak was at hand. Events of the next few days, he said, would determine whether | the epidemic, which has resulted . in 17 deaths, would increase in i intensity or show a sudden ini- i provement. Dr. Paul said that new cases | admitted to county hospital yes- I terday all wore of (he spinal- type, i : less serious than the bulbar, or I respiratory type, prevalent in the ; earlier stages of the epidemic. i Dr. Paul said that it would be ; approximately 10 days — the i length of the infantile paralysis I incubation period before posi-1 live evidence could be obtained ■ of the effect of spraying the city | with DDT. A specially-equipped army bomber flew over Rockford Sunday, , loosing 1,600 gallons of the pow- ! erful insecticide over a portion of the city. The experiment was : conducted with the aid of the ; army and the National Foundation so” Infantile Paralysis to ■ test a theory that flies are car- ; riers of the polio virus. Almost simultaneously with Dr. Patil's announcement, the first ' ease of infantile paralysis was recorded at nearby Camp Grant. The city of Rockford has been "off-limits" since Aug. 3 for all military personnel at the camp. 1 I except those with families here.

Attacks on fishing boats had | ' made fish one of the scarcest ; foods in Japan, which normally depends on seafood for a great I part of its diet. The Japanese armies, however, i the staff officer said, are still j formidable." The envoys report- : ed that 5,800 naval aircraft remained, of which 4,000 do not normally operate with the army ' airforce. The latter is considered generally smaller than the navy s ! force.
