Mobs march on the British Embassy in Tokyo to protest against the âœHâ Bomb tests â Hundreds of Tokyo students and other protesters marched on the British Embassy in Tokyo with banners and placards to voice their indignation that Japan had been snubbed by the British Government after their appeal that the forthcoming âœHâ bomb tests should be abandoned because it may harm the Japanese people and spoil the fishing areas on which the people rely for food. Many people were on duty, but there were no major clashes. The students staged a sit down barrage blocking the gates of the British Embassy while a small deputation delivered their written protest to the Ambassador, Sir Esler Danning.
