By Brydoa Tares United Press Correspondent Gen. MacArthur'a Headquar ters, Australia. Dec. 22 (U.B One of the two Japanese air strips on the beach southeast of Buna was in aUied hands today and the other was under attack from both ends In some of the heaviest fighting of the cam paign.- The main attack was at the southeastern end of the strip, in the Cape Endaiadere section about two miles from the Buna Mission, with light tanks over running the enemy's Bunker type strong points of connected steel and concrete defenses. Find Nips Remnants . As this and another attack. from across the Buna creek, con tinued at the main front. It de veloped that Australians who captured the village of Gona al most two weeks ago were still finding Japanese remnants and some of the enemy troops who landed a week ago at the Mam- bare Estuary, 40 miles northwest up the coast from Buna, were still trying to organize for ac tion. Analysis of Gen. MaeArthur's communiques for the last sev eral weeks showed that only when light American-built gen eral Stuart tanks went into ac tion last Friday did Australian and American infantry find it possible to advance speedily Into the heart of the Buna oeacn head. The Japanese had with stood a virtual siege In this swampbound jungle fortress area for more than a month. No Naval Aid Study of the communiques showed also no mention of allied naval forces operating in sup port of the campaign. - There were nine mentions of Japanese naval forces maneuvering be tween New Guinea and New Britain and several reports of attempts at least two were successful to land more troops at widely separated points along the New Guinea coast.: By set ting up more little Bunas the Japanese could drag the New Guinea campaign on for months. The Japanese landings were made despite substantial allied air superiority. ' Occasionally Japanese convoys were sent in without fighter plane cover. Closing time (or CUjelfied ads 9 a. m.
