OCR Text OUTPOST IN JEOPARDY Recis Covet Sinqapore, British Stronghold British power has been challenged chal-lenged again in Singapore. From the walls, pictures of Chiang Kai-shek Kai-shek are being torn down and pictures pic-tures of Mao Tse-tung. Communist, are being tacked furtively. British rule was flaunted once before. Last summer the Chinese Communist high command ordered the Chinese Re'is :n Singapore to switch from agitation to direct action. The British acted swiftly in the face of rioting and shooting, seizing seiz-ing Communist leaders and hanging hang-ing some of them. Communist power pow-er was broken in the city. Singapore is really two cities mixed together a Chinese city and a British city.
