Japanese forces made a series of landings near Swatow at dawn yesterday, thereby obtaining control of one of the jew remaining open ports in China. Foreign ships entering harbour have been held up. These pictures show Swatow harbour and waterfront, with the wharves and godowns, and a British destroyer anchored off the foreign residential part of the island off Swatow. The tall, white building is the headquarters of the Swatow Water Police and concrete and sandbagged dug-outs lined the waterfront when these pictures were taken.
