What we want is not our Sc

but announces them name by name,

I'VE have hurt the Japanese
sorely," he said. I'VE have wounded
him again and again. But each
time we have been forced to allow
him time to recover from the blows
that made him stagger. He works
like a beaver night and day. He Is
a tenacious adversary"
Additional Aid Urged.
DR.. Evatt reiterated his plea for
more substantial American aid to
United Nations forces In the Pacific
theater. He said that Allied airmen
have been operating for q long time
"on a dangerously narrow margin Of
safety" He pointed out that the
capacity Of the Allies to hold what
they have Is determined not only by
United Nations strength in the area
but also on the strength OF the forces
"the enemy chooses to throw against
us"
THE Japanese know their own

going to sit back. They will not
take punishment for as long and as

Senator Chandler. Democrat. of
Kentucky appealed to the Senate
today to use its influence" to pro-
vide Gen. Douglas Macarthur with
adequate planes. men and equip
ment to conduct an offensive against
the japanese"
His plea came after a warning
that Japanese forces are consoli-
dating their positions along a
3,000-mile arc from Timor to the
Solomon Islands in preparation
for an intensified campaign against
the United Nations in the Southwest
Pacific was sounded last night by DR..
H. v. Evatt, Australian Minister for
External Affairs, who now is in
Washington.
Despite repeated defeats, Japan
has had sufhcient time to recover
from. United Nations blows. Or.
Evatt declared in a radio address.
; He said that the build-up along
the 30O0-mile arc" indicates that
the japanese are preparing to hit
back and hit hard" Moreover. he
cautioned anew that Allied aerial
forces in the Australian area are
relatively small-that they operate
'on dangerously narrow margin Of
safety"
II believe it is time now that the
leaders Of our Government and our
military men realize the deadly seri-
BUSINESS Of the Japanese menace to

said Senator Chandler, Military
Affairs Committee member.
Struggle Is Tough.
He said that the war against
Japan is no second-class war" but
the toughest struggle that has ever
faced the people OF the United
States"
It came a day after Secretary Of
War Stimson assured a press con-
ference that enough planes to coun-
ter Japan's stepped-up air attack in
the Southwest Pacific would be
forthcoming.
Senator Chandler declared he was
"wholeheartedly" in favor of crush
ing Hitler, but I would hate to en-
vision a time when Germany. pros

leave the United States entirely

Minister Winston Churchill's recent

the reports OF a projected Japanese

gagged, it said, and one was left
burning and another severely
damaged Later strongly escorted
tanker was encountered and it burst
in flames after two torpedo hits were
scored.
"Gunfire from our forces inflicted
considerable damage on the enemy
escort" the war bulletin added.
One of our vessels failed to return
to base. The remainder suffered
only minor casualties and superficial
damage"
The German high command had
reported an action in which it said
three British motor torpedo boats

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTH AFRICA, March 10.-The
British 9th Army, after dealing
heavy blows to Marshal Erwin
Rommels armor, has begun
harassing and probing activities
all along the Mareth Line in
Southern TuniSia, an Allied
headquarters announcement said
today.
Declsively repulsed last Saturday
when he abandoned so of his tanks
IN six attempted thrusts into 9Th
Army positions from his fixed forti-
flcations, Rommel lost two more OF
his armored machines in the latest
clashes with Allied patrols, the COM
munique said.
I'VE knew We had won the first
round and the enemy is showing no
Willingness to come up for round
two an Allied military source COM
mented today.
Weather Hampers Flyers.
"We know he has lost more armor
than he can afford"
Elsewhere on the 350-mile TuniSian
front activity was light, and even
most of the airmen were forced by
bad weather to take day off.
Allied patrols were extremely
active" in Northern Tunisia, where
the British 1st Army is stationed,
particularly in the Sedjenane area,
the communique said. The Germans
showed little activity there.
In the central sector the French
completed their occupation of To-
Zeur and sent out reconnaissance
parties toward Gafsa, so miles to the
northeast.
No Enemy Planes Encountered.
The weather abruptly restricted
the activity in the air, the commu-
nique said, and only patrols were
flown by the American and British
air forces.
