Winston Churchill's expression of "growing confidence' in the outcome of the struggle despite anxiety over Singapore's fate, American air forces have struck another telling blbwat a key-stone of; the .Japanese power, arch in the China sea. fl; Yankee .bombers i;havew sunk a Nipponese : cruiser Aa tod- fired a tanker m the vicinity of Jolo, cen tral island of the Sub archipela go, midway betweeijKltforth Borneo and the southwestern tip of Min danao. Jolo is in the island-dotted passage between the. Sulu and Celebes seas. Japan' must domi nate that passage effectively eith er to push southward against the Dutch Indies or Aiistralia, "or to safeguard the flank of ier attack on Singapore. : ' The South Pacific-China sea route' uses that passage. From bases In Mindanao, In North Borneo and on Celebes island, Japanese air units 'and probably U-boats are deployed to bar it to allied use. American air blasting in the Sola-Celebes sea passages is raising a -definite challenge to that enemy deploy ment at a critical point According to Washington re ports the most recent incident oc curred "100 miles off Jolo." That sufficiently indicates the vulnera bility of the Japanese deployment at this stage of the fight It also might indicate that in the minds of allies strategists, the Sulu Celebes sea passage is the weak link in Japan's gigantic effort to wall off the whole China sea; region while she matures her drive for oil and other resources in The Netherlands Indies. Control of that passage is es sential to the Japanese 'not only against allied naval incursions; but also to Insure safe passage southward for any major in vasion thrust at the Dutch In dies or even Australia, Narrow Singapore5 strait is the only other road that could be used. It is still dominated by Singapore on one side and allied bases in Borneo on the other.
