''II The Americans -said actihbiti.es of Burmese "traitors" •were one of the most important problems fac- ing the United Nations forces de- fending Burma: Steps are being' taken, they said, to round up ' known pro.- 'apaneee native`•' and to remove: thousands of Burmese from military areas to reduce the menace. At Toungoo, according to in- formation the Ainerican travelers obtained , from . military sources,. Burmese learned that Chinese were to replace British • in'' certain sectors. The infglnnation was -re- ' layed e'.,rayed to• the Japanese attacking •'• force. At the time the transfer was_ being' effected, the Japanese knifed their 'way in through tem-. . porarily '•unguaeded • points and surrounded the Chinese force.

But when • the ,.chief priest and the scribes saw the 'wonderful things . that , I•l:e' did, and. the children •that were hying in the temple and saying.'Hosanna to, the Son of David', they were moved with indigihation.''.-Many afflicted pet=. sons were dpubtless t'o', be seen in the temple courts, asking alms or seeking consolation in Wor- ship. The. miraculdus healings, then and there, served to •estab- lish Jesus' authority to cleanse • the temple, and in the same sense reeoneecrated the courts which had been profaned.
