BATAVIA, Netherlands Indies, Jan. 6.—Although Netherlands In- dies fighting strength was struck a blow today in the loss of & sub- marine in Japanese-patrolled waters, Dutch officials were heartened by official word that Gen. Sir Archibald P. Wavell will establish headquarters of ‘the Allied supreme command on Indies territory. Aneta news agency said the exact location of the headquarters from which Gen. Wavell will direct the war against Japan has not been chosen, but the official Batavia radio broadcast that “definite and gratifying announcements have reached us that Java has been chosen the seat of the unified com- mand.” Java is the most highly developed of the Dutch islands and contains | Batavia, the capital, and Soerabaja, chief port and naval base. Van Mook in Australia. A further indication of stepped- up Allied co-operation in the Pacific was the presence in Australia, for conferences with Prime Minister John Curtin’s government, of the Indies’ lieutenant governor-general, Dr. H. J. van Mook. The submarine reported lost had been operating with the British fleet. Aneta said word from the sub- marine, which had been operating in an area closely patrolled by the enemy, had been lacking for some time. She was the second submarine whose loss the Dutch have an- nounced since the beginning of the war in the Pacific. Dutch Disappointed. Meanwhile, Indies newspapers ap- proved the establisnment of a uni- fied command in the Southwesh Pacific under Gen.

Camalier, counsel of the Senate District Committee, last night urged residents of Washing- ton to “awake to the perils of mod- ern warfare” by redoubling efforts to perfect the local civilian defense structure. Speaking before a meeting of the Georgetown Progressive Citizens’ Association, Mr. Camalier said that the problem of civilian defense must be met not only with a spirit of willingness, but with a spirit of determination to carry on to the end. “It takes a lot to jog us out of our complacency, our routine and our American way of doing things, but the day has now come when all of us must gird ourselves to the enormous task which lies before us,” Mr. Camalier declared. “We must put on the armor of civilian defense willingly, co-operatively and un- selfishly. Every able-bodied citizen should, for his own sake as well as his neighbor's, tender his services to the auxiliary police and fire forces or community air raid wardens or “Your home, yodt family and your country demand your whole-hearted support of all measures for the safe- ty and protection of Washington.” The association also heard a talk by Mrs. Hume Wrong, who told of air raid experiences in London which she had last year. A resolution offered by Miss Etta L. Taggart urged that all employes of the recreation department be bona fide residents of the District. Walter F. Bramhall presided over last night's meeting, held in the Curtis School.
