THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., MONDAY,. JANUARY 5, 1942. ¥ A-3 Singapore Confidence In Possibilities of Defense Mounts British Forced to Fall Back Yesterday From Positions Below Ipoh Br the Associated Press SINGAPORE, Jan. S—Conndenre {s mounting in the long-range pos- | sibilities of defense of Singapore | despite a new retreat yesterday | which forced the British to fall back from their positions below Ipoh on | the west side of the Malayan Penin- sula. This confidence, which is evident | despite the fact the British have| been forced to yield approximately 200 miles of the peninsula in little less than a month of fighting, sorings largely from the appoint- ment of a Far Eastern command of the United Forces under Gen. Sir Archibald P. Wavell. Civilians, as well as men in the military and naval services, believed that his prompt reinforcement of Burma's defenses and his negotia- tions with Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek which resulted in veteran Chinese troops crossing into Burma. meant that Gen. Wavell already is very much on the job co-ordinat- ing the activities of a vast theater of war. Brett Appointment 0.K.d. High quarters, too. approved the appointment of Maj. Gen. George | H. Brett. chief of the United States Army Air Corps. as deputy supreme commander. They believed it im- plied American concentration on providing powerful air reinforce- ments. in order to solve one of the key difficulties of the Allied posi- tion. In this connection Gen. Brett's energetic work in helping build up British air forces in Africa and the Near East was recalled. Allied confidence also springs | from the fact that although the British have had to carry out a| series of retreats they have not yet | lost a decisive battle or lost any | major part of their force by e circlement. On the other hand. the month of warfare has seasoned the soldiers in Japanese methods and tricks. and given Washington and London, 2s well as the generals in the field. an opportunity to decide on broad strategy. (The Singapore correspondent of the Melbourne Herald. in an Australian broadcast heard by C. B. S. in New York. said “the coming of Allied naval reinforce- ments” would compel Japan to | take careful measures to safe- guard her ocean supply lines now spread along a 12,000-mile front. Even a limited offensive by Brit- ish, Indian and Chinese forces in Burma would be a strong threat to the Japanese flank, he said «N.B. C.'s broadcast from Bata- via. Svdrev Albright. warned that the Japanese may attempt an extension of their invasion | of Borneo. especially toward the Tarakan oil fields. as a flanking movement against Singapore (A maximum penaltv of death for crimes such as robbery dur- ing blackouts and air-raid alarms has been announced by the Ditch, he said. A re-examina- tion of men exempted from mili- | [ tary service because of their | vital civilian duties has been | ordered to increase the fighting forces, he added.) Japs Increase Pressure. Observers at the’ front said the Japanese increased their pressure vesterday bv using numerically su- perior ground forces backed by heavier artillery and strong avia- tion. Japan's nightly raids on Singa- | pore have caused little military | damage. few civilian casualties and practically no disruption of essen- tial services | Announcement that the battlelines had inched nearer to Singapore dur- ing the week end coincided with dis- quieting news that the Japanese had gained ground in their efforts to win control of Borneo by effecting a landing at Weston on the north- west coast. Weston, in British North Borneo, {s about 170 miles north of Miri, Sarawak, the British-protected do- main of the white Rajah Sir Charles Vyner Brooke. where the Japanese first gained a foothold on the island December 17. Since then they have captured Kuching, capital of Sara- wak. Japanese in South Perak. | The communique disclosing the British withdrawal in Northwestern Malaya failed to say where the new imperial defense lines had been es- tablished, though it mentioned some Japanese patrol activity in southern Perak state, the border of which at | one point is only 240 miles from | Singapore. s The previous line had been estab- | lished behind the Perak River, which | enters Malacca Strait about 280 miles from this vital naval base The British said the Japanese had | paid a heavy toll of casualties as the | price of their advance. Further Japanese activity off the | west coast of Malaya. where the in- | vaders previously had attempted to land behind the British lines, wau reported during the week end. Brit- | ish planes heavily attackeed Japa- | ® nese boats along the coast, a com- munique said, but poor visibility | made the results uncertain. (The Tokio radio claimed that the conquest of Perak state al- ready was complete and that Japanese forces, pushing on - southward, were within sight of the “strategically important sec- ond city of Malaya"—presum- ably Kuala Lumpur, which is the capital of Selangor and only 200 miles from Singapore. (The Japanese also reported that their troops had wived out the greater parts of the 8th Aus- tralian and 9th Indian divisions during battling across the Perak River under heavy fire. (In Canberra, Australia. Army Minister Francis Forde described today as absurd Japanese reports that the greater part of the Australian 8th Division had been wiped out.) f Official advices yesterday made no mention of the situation on the east coast of Malaya, where the British acknowledged Saturday that the Japanese had entered the out- skirts of Kuantan, 190 miles from here. Singapore itself was under attack from the air again Saturday night when 24 Japanese planes roared overhead and unloosed clusters of bombs. A communique said damage and casualties both were light. s Official Declares HONOLULU.—SAILOR HEROES—Admiral Chester Nimitz, commander of Lhe Pacific I-']eet shakes hands with W. B.

Tire and tube rationing—set up in | about 25 days and called by some | defense officials “the biggest organ- |izing job since the draft’—began functloning today in & majority of the Nations counties. With the exception of some areas of the South ana Middle West and other scattred regions, most of the local rationing boards were re- | ported ready to begin distribution of January’s Nation-wide quota of 356974 tires. This compares with | normal January sales of around 12,500000 tires. The Office of Price Administra- | tion said difficulties of printing and distributing instructions, applic: tions and certificate forms, compli- rush, had caused delay in some | areas. |councfll in some counties also con- tgjbuted to their slow starts. Boards which have not yet re- ceived the necessary forms have ‘been instructed by Prank Bane, ! | head of O. P.

The speal®:rs, heard by an audi- ence of approximately 900 persons at the Shoreham Hotel ball room, ' in addition to the radio audience, agreed that victory was at the end | of the road because of the vigorous | and immediate unity that was| achieved by the Nipponese attacks.

Asked by Mrs. Roosevelt whether | it would be possible to keep the cost | of living within reasonable bounds, Mr. Henderson replied: ’ “Within reasonable bounds, ves,| but there will be some increases in | price because of the dislocations in- duced by the war.” The 21 republics of the Americas' are “closer together than theyv ever have been before.” Mr. Rockefeller told the radio audience.

Philippine theater: A strong Japanese attack on American and Philippine troops northwest of Manila on Sunday was | repulsed with heavy enemy losses. It is estimated that at least 700 of the enemy were killed in this at-| tack. Our losses were relatively small.
