London, Dec. 18. (PI The
Netherlands government an
nounced today that allied troops
had occupied the Portuguese
island of Timor, between Java
and Australia, strategic station
on a Japanese air line.
But Timor's importance for
Japanese submarine warfare
was emphasized in the Dutch
announcement, which said:
"In view of Japanese subma
rine activities off Portuguese
Timor it became an unavoidable
necessity to take steps to safe
guard this territory against Jap

its being used as a base from
which attacks could be made on
allied territory and communications."
