Then he issued "preliminary in

Even the preliminary accounts
bring out these startling points:
1. Tho puny showing of the
enemy airforce, suggesting It
lacks the diversified strength
to spread out along the Asiatic
shores while at the same time
challenging the Superfortresses
over Japan and attempting to
impede American invasion pro
gress on Luzon in the Philip
pines; Aerial Belting
2. The aerial belting given
Nippon's sorely needed oil tank
ers and oil stores; and
3. The ability of Admiral Hal
scy to roam the South China
sea unchallenged by Japan's
navy and unimpeded by her
continental air power.

Oil MacArthur's left flank,
however, American artillery
pounded Japanese stubbornly
holding ridges commanding the
only' north-south road In the Lu
zon plain still remaining to the
enemy.
In this sector, south and south
west of Bosarlo, American prog
ress toward Poiorrubio was
slowed Sunday night by a Japa
nese counterattack in which
small tanks were used by the en
emy, U. S. artillery broke up this
counterblow, the first of the
week-old Invasion, They knocked
out one "tankette," and the oth
ers withdrew.
Dug in Well
Tha Japanese are well dun In
along foothills -of the Benguet
mountains and are making a
tout and diligent attempt to pre
vent the Americans from secur
ing their left flank. Poiorrubio
is the key town on a highway
leading to Baguio, summer capi
tal of the Philippines.
Other Japanese tanks were
sighted on the right flank of the
fio-mlle-wlde beachhead, but the
enemy has been hesitant to risk
his meagre supply of thinly-armored
tanks against the American
firepower. .

Then on January 11, he said,
more high priority cargo was put

hey would have to leave the

"We protested," Leroy said,
