All Americans
Escaped Java
BY RALPH JORDAN
nt1 Nevs service stan Correspondent

WITH UNITED NATION s
FORCES N THE SOUTHWEST
PACIFIC, March 1O.-Contrary TO
the Usually exaggerated claims Of
Japan, all American forces as
signed to the defense Of Java made
their way successfully from that
embattled isle before the enemy
overran it, this correspondent is
able to reveal today.
Tokio's announcement that 5000
British, Australian and United
States troops surrendered upon
the occupation Of Banding is
erroneous in this respect AZ least.
There never were more than 500
Americans on Java and all were
air force personnel.

that il appreciated very, very
deeply all MacArthur's won
