Fijians' Notable Success In Malaya

REPORTING from Singapore, a V Melbourne Herald writer says that the two outstanding units i the jungle campaign against hinese Communist terrorists in alaya are the Cameronians, under [eut.-Colonel W. Henning, and the Ljians, under Lieut-Colonel Ron Inker.

He says their methods vary idely. The Cameronians go in for od control; and move in for the 11 only when hunger drives the rrorists out of the jungle. But ie Fijians, who revel in jungle itrols, like to scout deep in small irties—the type of warfare in lich they excelled in the Solomons id Bougainville. .

The Malayan terror is being sadily but surely eliminated. But e campaign is far from over. The ji battalion probably will be inted for another year or two.
