russian Volunteers continue to patrol the Bund and assist police search parties at the various pontoons, where every incoming passenger from Pootung is being searched, whilst the Seaforth Highlanders are still on duty in Nanking Road from morning to night, standing by at their Race Course billets during the night, for any eventuality. Yesterday, members of the Seaforths were carrying their steel helmets on their belts, for the first time since they have assumed patrol duties in'accordance with present precautionary programme.
In the American sector, trucks with armed members of the Marine Corps, continue to drive through the main thoroughfares of the sector, whilst the two men, who are by now a familiar sight at the corner of Vu Ya Ching and Bubbling Well Roads, are ever on the look out for any trouble that may possibly occur and the nature of which they would communicate to their headquarters by field telephone.
Italian troops too, were patrolling their sector day and night, and not the slightest relaxation in the present precautionary measures are noricable.
