way to reconouest of the territory in the past ten days with unpre- cedented raids on the western Pa cific islands for a thousand miles on either side of the Philippines.
 Thunderous Attacks
 These thunderous attacks, which cost the Japanese close to 1000 planes and 100 ships, are still con- tinuing. The Manila radio reports that 270 carrier-bas planes struck in four waves this morning and hit Manila and strategic Clark Field. The Jap-controlled radio claimed l9 invading planes were downed
 The Mikados war lords said "our army and navy units are intercept ing this enemy force" The ambigu- ous expression Tokyo uses described any kind of defense or none at all.

1 bined with Southwest Pacific Maya Forces boldly steamed into Leyte Gulf in the Central Philippines, to screen the amphibious landing or tiny Sultan Island and, perhaps some other islands bordering on the gulf.
 400 Miles from Manila
 The area is only 400 miles from Manila and an ideal spot from which to establish aerial control of the islands and completely nullify the air bases which the carrier planes haven't already knocked out.
 Gen. Macarthur practices striking the Japanese where they aren't. This process is long familiar to those who have watched the progress of his forces since March IT, 1942, when he stood on the shores of Aus tralia, 20O0 miles from the Philip pines and promised, T came through and I shall return"
 If the Japanese stories are cor rect, Gen. MacArthur's forces have returned two years and six months to the day after he made that pledge.
 Japanese broadcasts are accepted by jubilant Chungking as being basically accurate. The Chinese re- flected confidence.
 Admiral Nimitz recently said: Judging from MacArthur's past performances, I predict he will do the same job in the Philippines he did in New Guinea, perhaps even more thoroughly"
