Tokio Radio Intensifies Barrage of Lies About War
Canberra, Aug. 27. The Japanese radio in recent weeks has intensified its barrage of lies about the war, particularly in relation to air operations, says the Minister of War. Mr. A. S. Drakefc&'d. The Tokio radio, broadcasting in several languages, reported devastating havoc wrought by Japanese raids at Townsville when not a vestige of damage was actuaily done. A recent broadcast in Dutch from Tokio cjaimed that Allied air resistance had been smashed, quoting as its authority, the "Sydney Times," a mythical newspaper. Japanese broadcasts to Australia still consist of a series of cordial invitations to join their new order— followed by grim threats that Australia will be destroyed if she does not break relations with the United States.
