I S Raid "Very Successful" Is Word Japs Use "Suicide Planes" On B-29's. Guam, May 27 (Sunday) (UP.) While Tokyo radio com plained bitterly about the effec tiveness of American firebomb raids, a lone B-29 slipped down through the overcast shrouding the Japanese capital and saw "very large masses" of fire more than nine hours after Sat urday's attack. Preliminary mission reports indicated that the incendiaries gave the enemy one of the worst days in the long war. First Lt. L. W. Abbott, Des Moines, la., pilot of a photo graphic Supcrfort, prowled over Tokyo at a high altitude with out seeing the target. Then he decided to go down and get a look. Abbott broke through clouds into rain and finally saw the sprawling enemy capital at 8,000 feet. "There were very large masses of fires all over the place," said Abbott. "I could even see flames, but I couldn't identify the buildings. Abbott flew over the burning area about 9 a .m. Saturday and stayed down only about two minutes, during which time Japanese anti-aircraft .fire, be gan peppering his plane..'

The presence of 10 or more Bakas indicated the Jap hope of solving B-29 tactics with suicide planes. .
