Foreign Property in Flames After Incendiary Eggs Drop Over Wide Area HANGHAI suffered the worst air raids in its history last night when, from 6.50 p.m. to 9 o'clock, and from 11 o'clock to well after midnight Chinese planes rained incendiary bombs on the Yangtszepoo, Wayside, and Broadway areas, and judging from the huge fires blazing far out, set fire to many buildings well beyond the Settlement boundaries.

Japanese anti-aircraft guns brought one of the planes down in the earlier raid, the machine crashing with a roar which was heard all over the Central District.
