Allied Flyers Strike
AT Koepang Air Base,
Setting Great Fires
Hangers and Runwoys
Blasted; Port Moresby
Raiders Kept High
By the Associated Press.


MELBOURNE, April 1.-THE Al
lied Air Force, mindful that the fall
Of Bataan possibly had freed 300
600 japanese veterans who might
be hurled against Australia, has
struck once more at the enemy air
base at Koepang, causing great de-
struction.
Hangers and other buildings and
the airdrome runwayS were blasted
yesterday from low level at the cap
ital Of overrun Dutch Timor, $50
miles off the northern Port of
Darwin. Great fires were set.
Army Minister Francis NJ. Forde
pointed up the danger inherent in
the loss of Bataan by warning
Australians they must concentrate
all their energy on an all-out war
effort, and must organize on the
theory that the japanese will launch
q full-scale invasion.
TT is this offensive and aggres-
sive spirit so effectively advocated
by Gen. Macarthur and Gen.
Blamey that will enable us to halt
any attempt at invasion and regain
for our Allies the temporarily lost
islands of the Pacific" he said.
The enemy was quiet today after
a heavy japanese bomber and a
navy Zero fighter were destroyed
yesterday in raid on Port Moresby,
New Guinea. Anti-aircraft fire kept
the seven marauding planes at TO-
900 feet while United States and
Australian pursuits rose to attack
A Dutch wership struggled into
Perth from the ruined naval base
at Soerabaja, Java, and the COM
mander said the port was so ef-
fectively scorched by explosions and
sunken ships that the enemy could
not use it.

Sees Nation United in
Speech at Jefferson
Day Celebration
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 11.-Former
Postmaster General James A. Farley,
speaking "as one whose sources Of
information are many and varied"
said tonight that America is hitting
a stride which insures defeat for the
enemies Of liberty and victory for
the United Nations"
In an address at tn Jefferson day
beefsteak dinner of the National
Democratic Club, Mr.. Farley asserted
that the four months since the Japa-
nese attack on Pearl Harbor have
shown the world that democracy can
effect total endeavor with surety Of
purpose and ideals of sacrifice; that
total efficiency can be attained and
total victory achieved"
Sees Rivalries Laid Aside.
"As democracy" he said. I'VE had
our differences in times of peace. In
times of war, still as a democracy
in the best traditions of jefferson, we
stand shoulder to shoulder, without
rancor and envy. without party
rivalry, without racial or religious
bigotry, without class distinction, be-
hind the chosen leader of our people.
the Commander-in-C Chief, Franklin
D. Roosevelt"
The former chairman Of the
Democratic National Committee as
serted that In our varied spheres,
our duty is to do our daily jobs in
such a way as our leaders think
best. We have no right to complain
If our habits of living are bent
toward the betterment of our ma
tional effort. II that effort should
fail, imagine the cost, and the con-
cept will be so convincing in its
possibilities that no sane person
will hesitate in giving all to the
common cause We share"
Jefferson Faced Perils.
Mr.. Farley referred TO the fact
that Democratic administrations
were in office during the first World
War, the depression and the pres
ent conflict and that Jefferson was
faced with "proportionately per-
ilous" situations.
But Jefferson carried through"
Mr. Farley said, "and now, a hun
dred and sixteen years after his
death. his works still inspire the
citizens of this great empire of
States he helped 20 create. He
gave his all for America, On the
day set apart to honor him, Amer
leans are ready to give their all
that the torches he lit at the shrine
of freedom may burn brightly
through the ages"
