Japs Extend Attacks
AGAINST Australia S
Northwest Coast
Airdromes and Planes
Are Blasted 700
Miles From Darwin
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MELBOURNE, Australia, March
3.-Japanese warplanes drove home
the urgency of Australias newest
war measures today by almost stimuli
taneolls raids on the small coastal
towns of Wyndham and Broone
respectively 300 and TOO miles south
west of Darwin, only other main
land point which has come under
direct attack.
In each case the raiders, possibly
based on enemy-occupied Timor
some 500 miles to the North
concentrated on airdromes and
grounded planes. A Royal Austral-
ian Air Force communique acknowl-
edged some damage, but said there
were no casualties either at Broome
where bombs were dropped, or at
: Wyndham, where the raiders at
tackled only with machine-gun and
cannon fire. 81.
1.-THE all-India radio reported
that 18 Japanese planes accom-
panied by fighters carried out an
other raid on Port Moresby, capi-
tai Of Papua, New Guinea. The
raid was short and only minor
damage was caused, the radio

The new wartime edicts were
aimed at profiting from the lessons
Australia has learned from the wal
in the Pacific so far-the urgent
need for fast, uninterrupted and
plentiful production and for pre-
cision military cooperation.
These were summarized in yester-
days report of Maj. Gen. Henry
Gordon Bennett. the Australian
commander at Singapore who es-
capped the Japanese. He told the
Commonwealth Council, which ap-
parently responded quickly to his
advice, that the campaign in Malaga
proved the need of modern army
for crushing aerial superiority
working in close collaboration with
the land forces.
Five Holidays Abolished.
Besides calling civilians for COM
pulsory service, the government also
abolished five major holidays and
welded the Australian imperial force
the famous volunteer army, into one
unit with the militia and the per-
manent garrison.
The decision to extend the labor
corps system meant compulsory
service at army pay-well below
trade union levels-and under vlr-
tual army discipline, chiefly for
work on construction and mainte-
nance projects.
These measures projected Austria

The groundwork for marshalling
all resources had been prepared last
month in regulations providing for
full mobilization of services and

The only holidays which will be
permitted until July will be Good

ed are Labor Day. which Australia
normally observes this month: East

realized the validity of that prin-
ciple at the end of the first world
conflict, and conducted ourselves
accordingly, there might not have
been a second war. or if that had
coem at the time it did come it
would have been over before now.
We may have learned by the
experience how fragile is the de-
fense of peace accords, even treat
les, and disarmament agreements.
Nobody can tell when a sullen
nation may essay to seek revenge.
Nobody can forecast when a pow
er-mad leader may resume the
dream of world conquest That
dream is older than recorded his
tory.
Just now our country is in full
fervor and fury to demolish the
powers that are attempting to
dominate the globe; to make all
people subject to them and to sub
stitute the rule of force for the
rule Of liberty.
But what of the future - Of the
time when Berlin, Tokyo and
Rome, have been compelled to aC-
knowledge that the forces of free
dom are greatr than any group of
would be international conquista-
dores? When peace comes there
will be no lack Of sincere people
who think that our victory is for
all time; of Congressman who see
a political advantage in catering
to a natural impulse to cut down
our military expenditures beyond
the safety point.
This same element last time led
us to the plausible but disastrous
disarmament conference. and its
sequels that reduced us from the
position of the strongest power in
the world to practical impotence.
Their chickens came home to
roost twenty years later.
One such lesson should be enough
for any nation. We are approach

must, if we are to avoid the re-

we must never again cast away

BYRON VS.. LEE

Advisers to COngresswoman
Katharine Byron are slowly begin
ming to confess to themselves that
their pretty heroine is in a tough
spot with things getting no bright
er. But spunky Katharine. if she
has any personal misgivings
about the September primary
against Colonel E. Brooke Lee, is
skillfully hiding them behind the
blandest of smiles,
She says she's in 30 the bitter
end. But several developments of
the past ten days would give stout
er hearts than hers reason for
pause.
Foremost among these was the
little publicized meeting of the
United Democratic Women's Clubs
of Maryland during which Brooke's
friends effected a major political
coup which has reverberated round
the State and immeasurably aug
mented the momentum of the roll
ing Lee machine. What happened
was that Governor O'Conor threw
bouquet of endorsements to Col
onel Lee which brought a thunder
Gus ovation.
Moreover, Mrs. ByrOn's name
was never even mentioned through
out this gathering Of some 500
women. This same rally brought
out more than Is enthusiastic Lee
followers from Montgomery coun-
ty, all proudly Haunting their al
legiance. Another unhappy straw
in the wind for Katharine was the
appearance on the scene of Sarah
StOuffer vice-chairmau of the Clubs
from the incumbent's own county.
Sarah, who hopes to be chairman
of the Clubs organization next
year, proudly showed by an arm
band, that she was in Lees corner
and left others to guess whether
this indicated how Washington
County was turning.
News also has leaked out that
Lees political agent in the Sixth
District will be Joseph Cantrell,
erstWhile candidate against Bill
Byron in 1888 and recently poten-
tial candidate in the forthcoming
primaries. At that time Cantrell
polled 10,267 votes to Bills 20,0S8.
*##**
WESTERN COUNTIES
If it is granted that Katharine
may carry her home cOunty-even
if by no such sweep as her husband
did-she would have to preempt
the vote in Frederick to win even
as Bill did. But Bill had the Vein
brenner forces back of him then.
This element is now headed up by
Alton Y. Bennett, whose forces
augmented by Cantrell, are behind
Lees candidacy. The governor
also packs no mean weight in this
neck of the woods.
Another bit of gloomy handwrit-
ing on the tents of Katharine's
camp was the decision of James
Blaine Fitzgerald, American Le-
gion leader, to take the stump
among the veterans organizations
for Lees cause. Fitzgerald is
highly popular in the district and
prior to Lees candidacy had been
urged to run for the Office himself.
But meanwhile Katharine smil-
ingly told a Washington news

phase of the war effortbut be-
cause we must apporiion our sup
ply of manpower and woman
power, too - among the three
fronts on which we are active-the
fighting front, the factory front
and the farm front. The War
Manpower Commission has pre-
pared a series of questions and
answers dealing with the more i'm
portant aspects of the manpower
program. They follow:
Q. How many men will be re-
quired for the armed forces?
A. We have 100000 under arms
now; we shall have 4,200,OO0 -
maybe 4,500,0O0 - by the end of
the year; in 1943, 100000 to T.
100000, according to Gen. Hershey,
and eventually we may have as
many as 10,000,000
Q. How many men will be reauir-
ed for the industrial army for
the army on the farms?
A We must have force of 20
million in direct war production
and transportation in 1914 and II
million in the fields for 1943's har-
vest.
@. Will women be needed in
these jobs?
A. Women must fill the gap Gre
ated by the departure of men for
the fighting fronts; a million and
half already are doing war work
and four million more will be
needed in the next two years.
Q. Where are we going to get
these millions of men and women?
A. Seven to eight million are
expected to come from suspended
or converted peace-time industries,
100000 to 100000 from the farm
100000 from professional ranks, l,
100000 from the unemployed and
2 million from the home - house
wives, youths and retired workers.
Q. What Federal Agencies are
in charge of this task?
A. The War Manpower Commits
sion headed by Federal Security
Administrator Paul V. McNutt,
will direct the job. It's principal
field agency will be the United
States Employment Service. Many
training agencies and industry
will also help
@. What are the War Manpower
Commissions functions?
A. The VINO will mobilize our
manpower for duty at the lathe
and punchpress in much the same
way that the Selective Service
System marshalls our youth for
combat duty; the U. S. Employ
ment Service, with 1900 offices,
will register applicants and place
them in jobs.
@. Does that mean Labor
draft?''
A. No; this is voluntary move
ment to place every man and wo-
man in the job for which he or she
is best fitted, and most needed.
O. How large is our total labor
force?
A. F'ifty-five million persons.
Q. Do we have any potential re-
serves?
A. There are an additional 49,
100000 housewives without small
children, youths and retired work
ers.
@. How many more workers will
be needed in war industry and ag
riculture?
A. 100000 in industry and g.
100000 on the farms at the heav-
lest peak.
