The "Yomiuri" correspondent in Bangkok this morning reported that the Thai Government authorities have arrested and are holding for question ing five members of the Chungking Blue Shirt Terrorist Organization on charges of plotting the assassination of he Premier, Luang Bipul Songgram. and have also rounded up a large number of Chinese in Singapore, near the British Malaya border. for spy activities.
The correspondent asserted on reliable authority that pro-Chungking Chinese are infiltrating into Thailand and declared that the entire plan was British-inspired in order to overthrow the pro-Japan Bipul Cabinet and re-stare the pro-Beitish party of the late King Prajadhipok who died recently after six years abroad.
The "Yomiuri" correspondent charged that the plot centre was in Singapore. and said that the former Thai Agricultural Minister. at present at Singapore, and a member of the Thai Royal family in Batavia were involved.—Domei,
