BURMA ROAD
REOPENING BY BRITAIN THE JAPANESE VIEW TOKIO, Oct. 6. (Received Oct. 7, at 11.45 p.m.) The Asahi’s Hanoi correspondent says the British re-opening of the Burma road will not affect Japan because, with the landing of Japanese planes at Hanoi t on June 10, under the terms of the agreement between Japan and Indo-China, the Japanese Army now has complete air supremacy in Yunnan and Szechwan. In view of this aerial destruction of the Burma route is considered “ very easy.”
