in one of the two raids on Port
Moresby yesterday.
The Allied attacks on Jap bases
also are reported to be meeting
considerably stronger opposition.
In the raids on Port Moresoy,
the first found IS fighter planes
overhead, then 26 bombers came,
with 9 more fighters. 1t is de
clared that they hit not one single
worthwhile objective, but the large
number of planes taken. indicates
that the japanese are willing TO
pay a high price to prevent the
use of Port Moresby as an Allied
air base.
