Mas Talk
Inquiry
Demanded
CONTINUED from Page Two)

ticipated In the Tulagi Harbor
battle of August 8. 1t was the
fact that Mas holds a commission
as a marine officer that made this
last mentioned observation by
Vincent so pointed.
Somewhat of a tempest in a tea
pot has developed here over re-
ports that the navy department
sought TO suppress the Mas
broadcast.
Mas emphatically denies that
he was subjected to pressure in
that direction.
NONE TRIED TO STOP TT
He told the writer late Thurs
day. in advance OF its delivery,
that no one had sought to stop
him, that the speech was being
made with the full knowledge OF
the navy department. which had
been supplied with an advance
copy OF the text. and that he had
just concluded going over that
text with officers of the navy who
had checked il against official
naval communicates.
This check was made In Mas
office at the House Office Build
ing. the navy men coming to him
at the Capitol. He said they came
at his request and brought the
complete file of communicates re-
lating 10 the Solomons engage
ment. after he had been lin teie-
phonic communication with the
department.
The navy land marine) officers
who visited him. Mas said. did
suggest a few minor changes. TO
which he readily agreed. One of
these changes was where his pre-
pared text read yet the next day
after that major disaster" refer
ring 10 the navy's communique
regarding the Tulagi Harbor de-
bacle, il was changed TO read yet
10 days after that major disaster"
to bring the date in agreement
with the official records.
MAKE NO COMMENT
Neither the-Havy department
nor the marine corps has issued
any statement giving credence TO
the reports of attempted suppress
sion. Inquiries have met merely
with the mo comment" reply.
The text Of the speech had been
freely circulated among newspa-
per men and the nature OF its crit
ical contents was generally known
many hours in advance of its de-
livery. IL the navy had any Sc
rious objection 10 1t. II had ample
time TO forestall it's delivery be-
fore Mas went on the air.
A member of Congress docs not
enjoy that freedom of speech and
Immunity over the radio and In
newspaper interviews or state
ments that is accorded what he
may say on the floor Of the House
or Senate.
The broad war powers OF the
government give the war COM
munications board full authority
TO prevent any person from saying
over the radio anything which
might be construed as harmful 10
the war effort or disclosing mill
tary information. The navy found
no occasion TO resort to this re-
course. though II could have done
SO had II wanted TO silence Mas

undoubted resources Of the enemy"
he went on. but no one doubts that
q great account Of their trusteeship
will be rendered by the authorities
in charge and the skillful, intrepid
airmen which the Allied forces for
tunately possess"
Mr.. Curtin in his address to the
legislature said "the possibilities of
offensive tactics with growing air
strength are seen in Brig. Gen.
Royces successful attack in the
Philippines"
Referring to the attitude Of the
Vichy regime. the Prime Minister
said "the change In French policy
may facilitate use Of Madagascar by
the Axis.
Such q development would be
regarded by Australia with deep
concern as 1t would vitality affect
our communications via the Cape
with the Middle East"
ing:
Gen. Macarthur is doing every
thing within his resources to defend
Australia.
But If Australia Is not held. all
talk Of using 1t as a springboard
for an offensive becomes meaning
less
The task that confronts US Is
the most formidable the nation has
ever faced.
II pledge the governments de-
termination to yield no part OF
Australia to the enemy and to resist
any attack for the purpose Of gain
ing q foothold on the continent"

The Prime Minister spoke twice,

also in q broadcast to England re-
Affirming Australia's loyalty to the

Although he told the Legislature
that Australia must expect Japan to
try her utmost to make this con-
tinent impotent as base for the
Allied offensive, he predicted IN his
broadcast that "the turning point
in the total conflict" would be the
Allied blows dealt in the South Pa
