Malayan Terrorist With Communist Medals
SINGAPORE, Feb. 7. Grenadier Guards operating near Xajang, south of Kuala Lampur, captured a number of brass medals oearing the heads of Stalin and Lenln on one side. A guard's officer said they were of "shoddy manufacture." The medals* which were about the size of a half-crown, were found in a sack dropped by a fleeing terrorist. Each had a chain and it is believed that they were intended for decorations. The sack also contained Communist literature and maps of the adjoining area.
