r THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 5, 1942. Enemy Within Fighter Planes’ Fuel Range Of Australian Base By GEORGE WELLER, ' Poreign Correspondent of The Star and Chicago Dally News.

Koepang is only 500 miles hlghest 9 Eceichibes 9 y from Port Darwin. Japs No Longer Restricted. Signifying that the Japanese are now within fighter planes’ fuel- range of Port Darwin was the an- nouncement yesterday that a flying boat had been shot down en route from that southernmost Allied bastion to Koepang. The Japanese no longer are restricted to hit-and- run tactics. It is becoming a battle between fighter planes in this area. Aware that her immediate re- sources in this respect are greater, Japan throws them lavishly over tropical seas. The purpose is not only bombing military objectives and terrorist bombing, but annihi- lation of the Sumatra and Java de- fenses. To check this advance the Allies must obtain fighter superiority in at least a single place. The Malay episode demonstrates the futility of piecemeal reinforcements. ‘Two Encouraging Spots. The encouraging spots suddenly appearing are Balik Papan in East- ern Borneo and Amboina in Ceram, which are still giving trouble to the Japanese. Radio silences descend- ing on these places means that they are fighting for their lives and must protect themselves against the radio compass. It is appreciated fully here that in relieying Britain, the United States may be acting from a long-range view. At the same time it is evident that only through every assistance and continual reinforcements ar- riving here can the battle be main- tained. With their meager means the Netherlands Indies already have ‘_ * : 3509 GA. AVENUE N.W. proved themselves to the world. C c ‘m N STREETS NE (Copyright, 1942, Chicago Daily News, Inc.) 3 — 3 4555 WIS.
