The British patrol yacht Warrior Second was sunk by an enemy bombing attack in the English Channel yesterday with one seaman killed and the rest of the crew landed safely. Four enemy bombers were shot down off the east coast by Royal Air Force fighters this morning. The American liner President Coolidge sailed from Hongkong for Japan and Pacific ports with a crowd of refugees as tensions between Britain and Japan over supplies to China show no clear rise. In Tokyo, negotiations on Japan's demands to close the British Burma route to arms for China progress. In London the postponement of removing British children to the Dominions and the United States was announced due to insufficient warships for convoys.
