Numbered toward a climax.
Allied submarines and treach-
erous coral reefs were reported
playing havoc with Japanese
landing forces.
Bali, already invested by ia
pans sea-borne invasion hordes,
lies across a mile-wide strait
from Java.
A Dutch communique heard in
Canberra, Australia, said that
three Japanese cruisers, a de-
stroyer and three transports had
been damaged and another de-
stroyer blown up in an attack off
Bali. 1t did not specify whether
this referred to the post-mid-
night action Friday or Thurs
days action.
Imperial Tokyo headquarters,
giving its version, claimed a
smashing victory against heavy
odds in a battle after midnight
Friday morning in the 15-mile-
wide strait between Bali and
Lombok Islands.
JAP CLAIMS
A Japanese communique as
serted that two Dutch destroy
ers were sunk and a third heavi-
ly damaged by two Japanese de-
stroyers. which then chased two
Dutch cruisers three miles be-
fore two more Japanese destroy
ers rushed up and helped score
torpedo hits on the fleeing cruis-
ers.
With the far Pacific conflict
surging ever closer to her
shores, Australia ordered civil
ians to evacuate Darwin, twice
bombed naval base on the north
coast of the commonwealth, and
military authorities C ! a m p e d

Authorities also ordered that
no lights be shown at night in
any building within 10 miles of
the Victoria coast of southeast
Australia, evidently fearing that
the Japanese armies freed from
the Malayan campaign might
strike at any moment.
Latest reports from Batavia
said Dutch troops were still bat
thing fiercely in defense of Bali

that the situation was growing
more critical.

Retreads


port certain construction or me-
chanical w OIL e S; essential"
executives and personnel; fed
eral, state or local government
employees on official business;
cars used to carry farm produce
and supplies; certain essential"
travelling statesmen; cars used for
wholesale newspaper delivery.
@. How is the retread program
related to the new tire program?
A. New tire quotas must first
be exhausted before retread GER
tificates will be issued passenger
cars eligible under the new tire
program. Owners of trucks, how
ever. will not be given new tires
unless local boards are satisfied
their worn tires can not be re-
treaded; such trucks will take
preference over eligibles on the
IF and when" list.
@. What are the chances of eff
and when" eligibles under pres
ent conditions?
A. Very doubtful. OPA has
said that it is probable" that no
crude rubber will be available
for retreading passe ger car
tires-except those already eli
gible to buy new tires. At best,
the "if and when" group can
hope for no relief before April.
@. Suppose l left a tire before
Feb. 10 and ordered it retread-
ed. Can I get the tire back?
A. Yes, if the retreading has
not been started; if the retread-
ing job is done, you can not re-
gain the tire without a purchase
certificate.
Q. What does the purchase
certificate allow?
A. With a certificate, you may
buy retreaded tire or have q
worn tire retreaded. If you buy
the tire, your old tire must be
turned in. The certificates are
good for 80 days and may be
used anywhere.
