High Street Mrs. Frank Alwine 45.15 'Flaming Arrow 'Gas-Blowing Machines' at Front TAIPEI, Formosa, Aug. 19. Perhaps this won't sound like the same war to you. The Chinese are reading all about what Americans are doing in Korea with "gas-blowing machines" and "naming arrow pipes." A "gas-blowing machine" is a jet.

And a "naming arrow pipe" is a bazooka. Chinese is a simple language But it wasn't built to translate the simple terms of modern warfare. Here's a re-translation of some Chinese translations: Aircraft carrier: aviation mother ship. Antiaircraft gun: high shooting gun. Bayonet: thrusting knife.

Caliber: mouth diameter. Camouflage: false makeup. Howitzer: sliding shell cannon. Rocket: flaming arrow. Rocket launcher: flaming arrow thrower.

Sound detector: listening machine. Searchlight: sky-lighting lamp. Target: eye objective. Trench: battle ditch.
