Macarthur Still Needs Planes;
More Men, Correspondent Finds

erners as to how the Southwest
Pacific was fixed for men and
material.
Where Are They Going?
There is no question, however, but
that they believed great numbers OF
planes and men were sent this way
particularly since the visit of Gen
Kenney and Maj. Gen. Richard K
Sutherland, MacArthur's chief of
stan, to Washington last spring.
Persons living on the West Coast
watching conveys move out in i'm
pressive force, may have assumed
that all the ships were going to the
Southwest Pacific, for they were
headed westward.
Several asked. "if they aren't
going to Macarthur, where are they
going?"
1 rode a convoy more than.a year
ago which left port with eight ships.
Three OF the eight branched off to
a Pacific island. Farther on four
ships put in at South Pacific base.
One ship continued to unload in
Australia. 1t was like drawing water
out of leaky hose.
While it is true that since June
80 Macarthur has had available for
his campaigns in the Solomons
much of the force already assembled
and acting independently in the
South Pacific, it doesn't mean that
the total strength of the two areas
has been increased greatly.
In Frequent Furlouxhs.
Not only are more men and ma
terial required if Macarthur is to
take long strides on his way back
to the Philippines, but if this area
is to be given the sole task of hold J.
ing off the Japs while big attacks
fare launched from India or other
areas, it still has big problem in
the matter Of requirements:
I talked yesterday to an American
soldier who had been in New Guinea

most forgotten sight of white women

u. 5. Pacific Forces
Superior 10 japanese.
Authorities Contend
b, the Associated Pres.

By the Associated Press.
American forces are reported here
to have effective land, sea and air
superiority over the Japanese in the
South and Southwest Pacific areas.
This Is the main point made by
Washington authorities, who would
not be quoted by name, in comment
ing today upon a report from Gen.
Douglas MacArthur's Headquarters
that the situation in those active
war theaters has not changed SUBJ
stantially with respect to men and
materials for more than a year.
There is no disposition here to
claim that Gen. Macarthur has re-
ceived all the reinforcements, planes
and supplies that he has asked for
his northward offensive. The con-
tention is rather that he has been
furnished adequate forces, either
directly in his own command or in
the co-ordinated command of Ad-
miral William F. Halsey in the
South Pacific, to carry out the
strategic assignment given him.
Objective Not Clear.
The ultimate objective of that as
signment is still not entirely clear.
The immediate purpose undoubted-
ly is to knock out the Japanese base
Of Rabaul, keystone of the enemy's
crumbling defense line in the South
west Pacific sector.
Possibly the intention of the high
command. after this has been ac-
complished, is to consider the next
step in view of circumstances exist
ing on all the war fronts at that
time. 1t may not be decided until
then whether Gen. Macarthur will
use Rabaul as the starting point for
a gigantic drive to get back to the
Philippines or whether his opera
tions will be more local in charac-
ter and directed against enemy is
land positions to the west of New
Guinea or to the immediate north
of Rabaul.
The possibility that a new deci-
sion may have to be made Is based
on the fact that the American COM
mand ordinarily follows a highly
flexible strategy and does not COM
NIT itself to major undertakings un-
til the means for accomplishing
them are reasonably certain to be
available.
Secondary Front.
If Gen: Macarthur is given a 60
ahead for drive back to the Philip
pines, he probably will need much
larger forces than those now as
signed to him, particularly in war
ships and transport facilities. II
his job for a time will be to under
take more limited trusts his require
ments obviously would be less.
The size of MacArthur's forces,
therefore. are relative both to the
task given him and to the amount
of men and materials available for
assignment to all fronts. First pri-
ority for these still goes to the Euro
pean theater where, it may be as
sumed. the Allies are making every
effort to accumulate an overwhelm-
ing force for the opening of front
in Northern France as soon as pos
sible.

Gen. Richardson Sees
Another Pearl Harbor
Attack in 4 Months
BY EUGENE BURNS,
Associated Press War CORRESPONDENT

h~roSAshcu EiCsS WhE SOTTcSpOuOeNt.
HONOLULU, Nov. 13.-The COM
manding general of Army forces in
Hawaii believes another Japanese
attack on Pearl Harbor Is likely
within the next four months.
Vital installations, Army and
Navy hangers and supply dumps on
Oahu Island would be the primary
targets. If incendiaries were used
some might be dropped on Homo
lulu's water front.
These are the considered opinions
Of military experts, including 1t
Gen. Robert C. Richardson, jr.
commanding Army forces in Ha-
vaii and in the Central Pacific
areas.
Gen. Richardson expressed the
views In q conversation after study
Ing reports about the sighting of an
enemy plane the night OF October
Is. That enemy plane was caught
IN searchlight beams near Pearl
Harbor, but it escaped.
Would Be Excellent Propaganda.
When the writer said that he was
taking bets that Pearl Harbor
would be attacked within six
months, the general said that he
would be willing to reduce the time
to four months.
An attack on this Fortress fits
into the military scheme. It is
beyond calculation what it would
be worth to the enemy to cause
Pearl Harbor serious damage at this
stage OF the war. It is the base from
which We must defeat Japan. And
II this naval base is destroyed it
will delay the defeat OF Japan.
For vain glorious facelifting,
what could be better propaganda
than a second attack on Pearl Har-
Dor?
The bright spot in the picture
Is that Oahu stands ready to destroy
any surface or invasion force, re-
gardless of its might.
Might Try Sneak Raid.
Japan has a first rate carrier
force with which she has been ex-
tremely cautious since Santa Cruz,
October rs, 1912. The chances are
remote that she would risk these
in ship-for- ship action To date.
in every action the japanese used
carriers only when they had us
outnumbered two to one. There
remains then the sneak raid.
Why would the japanese attack
within the next four months?
They know North Pacific weather,
much of which originates in the
Kurile Islands and in the Japanese
Current north of Oahu. This warm
current meeting the cold Aleutian
weather breeds fogs Within the
coming four winter months, the fog
belt moves closer to Oahu Deem
ber, two years ago. the JapS patti
entity waited for this fog. then as
storm swept south to Oahu, they
sneaked in under its protecting
cover.
Rest assured, what can be done to
repel an enemy attack is being done
on Oahu. The empsasis is on speed.
Oahu's military garrison sprang to
instant alert when the raider ap-
peared last month. Each morning.
the commanding general makes his
rounds and to his officers he forever
drives home this point: I'VE can be
bombed: We will be bombed; we must
be. ready"

miles in diameter and in the quiet
waters within is fine anchorage
big enough to accommodate the en-
tire Japanese Navy.
The guardian reef is passable at
only five widely spaced points, fur
nishing a natural protection against
invasion, and in addition the islands
inside have many adequate sites for
airfields from which planes are able
to roam far in every direction to
staVe of attack.
The bigger islands in the group
are from 10 to IS miles in circum-
ference and vary in altitude from
100 to 1858 feet above sea level. At
the last time report was available
before the war they were populated
by $4,000 natives, / 900 japanese and
only two dozen other foreigners Of
all nationalities.
Remoteness Strategic.
The strategic Importance of the
group rests largely in their remote
ness from any base for an Allied
attack. They are 5000 miles west
of Pearl Harbor as we'll as 2lOO
miles south Of Toxic itself, and
approximately the same distance
east of Manila.
The closest point the United
States ever held TO them was Guam.
about 600 miles to the north, which
fell to the japanese soon after
Pearl Harbor.
Because of these tremendous dis
tances, the only way that the Ameri-
can and Allied forces can approach
the stronghold, which they eventu-
ally must try to overcome, Is from
the south.
