Japs Set Fake Periscope Adrift In Attempt to Fool Allies

Item

Japanese seamen have devised a new stunt in an effort to lure United States Army and Navy forces into wasting bombs and shells. Found floating off Pearl Harbor by our naval patrols was a dummy periscope made of wood, bamboo, glass, tin cans and a bit of coral for ballast, apparently set adrift as a “fooler.” Authorities say trained observers could spot it as a fake in a few seconds.
