approached a strong empire de-
Tense line on the kriang river FRI
day for the first pitched battle
in the fight for Singapore.
The japanese, evidently in
strong force. had broadened their
front to a width OF so miles, ex-
tending from the coast to erik,
inland from Penang. in an at
tempt TO seize roadheads from
which they could push motorized
forces southwark.
The fighting had moved
down through the flooded rice
fields 10 the plains area which
gave good fighting ground for
both attackers and defenders.
Strongly posted along the
Kriang river. which is $40 miles
above Singapore. the imperial
forces enjoyed the advantage Of
good communication in their
rear and the prospect of receiving
steady reinforcements as necessity
arose.

Tense in depth plan under which
their positions would become in
