BATAVIA, Netherlands Indies,
Feb. 14.-Striking close to the
heart of tbs Indies, Japan at
tackled the southeast coast Of
Sumatra today with air-borne
troops which landed from more
than 100 planes near Palembang,
$50 miles from Batavia, but
Dutch defenders were declared
officially to be more than holding
their own and killing para
chutists by the dozens.
The Japanese also were reported
pressing down closer to Java from
the north and the Dutch command
said there were unoff1cial reports
that Bandjermasin, capital of South
Borneo, had been occupied by the
invaders.
The Dutch already had carried
out careful destruction at the town
on the South Borneo coast just
across the Java Sea from Batavia
and the big Soerabaja naval station.
"a Sydney, Australia, dispatch
said reports from Batavia told
of Australian forces pouring into
the Netherlands Indies for a de-
tense stand alongside the fighting
Dutch.
The reports said it was not
permissible to reveal the number
of these reinforcements, but that
other Allied troops and empire
forces also were arriving)
Second Use of 'Chutists.
The attack on Palembang was de-
scribed officially as the second con-
f1rmed Japanese use of parachutists
in five weeks of operations against
Netherlands Indies territory. 1t also
was the first land operation on the
l.000-mile- long island.
It was not known whether the
Japanese were attempting to land
troops directly from transport
planes, but this would be an obvious
consequence of any seizure OF a field
on which such planes could be
landed.
The first Of the Japanese dropped
onto Sumatra near Palembang in
the morning, followed by more and
more as troop-carrying planes
scared over guarded by fighters,
the war bulletin said.
Although troops were dropped at
three places in the Palembang area.
the communique said "Palembang
itself is not threatened" and there
are no indications that parachutists
dropped close to or entered the
town"
GA Domei dispatch to Toxic
from "a Japanese air base in
Malaga" said Japanese warplanes
twice yesterday raided Palem-
bang Airdrome and shot down or
destroyed on the ground nine air
eraft)
Stiff Defense Indicated.
A stin defense was indicated by
the announcement that "our troops
have done excellent work and 1t
may be assumed that the situation
Is not nfavorable.
A special announcement issued
at 6 pm. $3.50 am, E. w. T. In
dicated that the fight still was going
on and said further news Is ex-
pected"
Meanwhile, Japanese bombers and
reconnaissance planes ranged over
wide areas of the N. E. I. One
civilian was wounded In a japanese
bombing at Tandjong Padan, cap
ttal of the producing island Of
Billion, between Sumatra and
Borneo. Other scattered attacks
also were reported.
