NO FOLLOW-UP

There was no word of any follow
up to the crushing tWo-day raid
on Rabaul Tuesday and Wednesday,
in which MacArthur's flierS Official
ly were credited with destroying or
damaging severely 1T Japanese
planes and 1913 ships.
Bad weather closed in over the
Bismarck Archipelago Wednesday
night, and it was possible that it
saved Rabaul from greater destruc-
ton.
Observers believed, however, that
the actual results of the raid were
considerably greater than claimed
officially, and suggested that its
full effects might not become evi-
dent for days or weeks.
This victory, coupled with the
Allied ground drive on New Guinea.

Other medium bombers raided

"a spokesman at Adm. William

at Matchin bay were 10,000-ton ves-
