FARN8WORTM NEW YORK, March 18 (Wida World The battle of Australia which, It could be said, started when the Japanese conquered The Netherlands East Indies, promises to become another test of the badly bent but not broken vtnesnl At ,irMasfitl A at In this concept defense Is not an end but a means to an end -a covering action to permit the full mustering of resources for the eventual offensive. Perhaps no more unfavorable place on earth could have bean selected for this strategy than Australia, with her 12,210 miles of coastline, lacking in the man power to garrison such a vast frontier, industrially adolescent. having few harbors, and, com pared with the United States, woefully undeveloped as to transport and communication. uiwiuxc Australia, unaa ine: A United States with 7,000,- 000 population clustered largely on the east coast, lightly settled on the west and almost not at all In an arid interior; A single trunk line railway running from New York down the Atlantic seaboard, thane across the continent to the south ern California coast; One long highway, paralleled in part by railways, from Lak Superior to the Gulf of Mexico in place of an elaborate net work of interior road; A United States stripped of her land frontiers on th north and south; exposed to tin tea on all sides. Imagine that and you have a superficial picture of present day Australia with its high form of democratic idealism nurtured by a hardy people largely at English, Scottish and Irish line age. It is difficult to picture any static, positional defense for Au. usLuu u ucu tactics are lull anywhere a possibility In mod ern warfare. What is Indicated Is a defes by wide flanking maneuver of p re-disposed fo rces. counter strokes against lengthened line of enemy communiaation by land, sea and air; first of all a battle of the approaches and then, when and If beach head are secured by the foe, a fighting defense of vital cores of war ef fort and national life. . Loss of territory will not de feat Australia if she and her allies are given the choice of the territory to yield. The battle of Australia prom ises to be above all a struggle for the roads, airway and railways, with distance the foe of both the invader and the invaded, although the advantage undoubt edly lies with the defense. The continent of Australia Is a kidney-shaped area t ;,948,366 square miles, as compared with the 2,973,776 of the continental United States, but with a popu lation of only 6.823.632 (Decern. ber, 1940, estimate) which is just under that of Ohio. An indication of the concen tration of the sparse population is that fact that nearly half of it resides in six capital of the mainland states or territories. Any successful conquest would have to be carried to the south east, tc the industrial centers of Sydney and Melbourne, between which lies the federal capital, Canberra, a-pretty little city of 10,000 population. Examination of maps seem to indicate that only by frontal as sault, from the south Pacific against the Brisbane-Sydney-Melbourne-Adelaide zone, could the Japanese hope ultimately to succeed.
