tacked by a fprmation of enemy fighter planes during the action but escaped unscathed after downing five of the Japanese craft. The attacks gn New Guinea appeared to be 4 part of a broad strategy to harty the Japanese war machine's advance bases and long ‘as much as possible, putting the enemy on the defensive and gaining time for the strength- | ening of Australian defenses. New Guinea lies just north of Australia. American bombers and submarines have sunk at least six ships and damaged five others in attacks reaching from |waters around Japan down along her 1800-mile-long supply line tol New Guinea and the northern approaches to Australia. Heavy offensive attacks, carried out in conjunction with Dutch, Australian and British forces, already have sunk, destroyed or beached 13 Japanese on

Admiral Thomas OC. Hart, just returned here from command of the united nations naval forces in the southwest Pacific, said two days ago that the growing Japanese ship losses were bound to be of ‘great future concern” for the enemy. Maintenance of the long Japanese supply line refjuires hundreds of ships and the stepped-up sinkings of the past few days are certain to have portant effects upon the enemy’s stra 7, naval experts said. Japan’s capaci y to replace lost ships, such as transports, is limited ‘ and cannot the united natipns. More important is the fact that the Japanese realize, that unless they can mainfain the momentum of their drive, the advantage is 10st 2 since It has now been revealed that important American convoys are moving into the southwest Pacific and American gerial forces, including flying fortresses, are based on Australia, ]

The latest American assault by submarines, Sarva by the navy

——

late yesterday, appeared to give action to a statement by Admiral Hart that flanking attacks against Japan constituted the favorite strategy of American raval forces at this stage. | Naval experts interpreted that statément as meaning that the united natio: eventually would move in great force through Japan’s mandated Pacific islands and #lash at her [supply line—right up to the China t. The latest atacks, it was believed, may force thig Japanese high command in pkyo to decide now whether it ‘push on with further offensives against Australia or perhaps India, or whether it will halt and consolidate his hastily-won prizes. The situation, according to naval experts, has reached the point where Japan, by striking at Australia or India, would not directly menace the |storehouses of British or American power, whereas if the united nations should take the initiative Japan’s key centers and arteries of supply would be in danger. The navy's communique yesterday, reporting that an American submarine hat ‘sunk three enemy freighters and a passenger-cargo - ship “In Japanese waters,” followed an army announcement 24 hours earlier oo eight h ry. erican bombers, presumably ustralian had sunk in vessels, set four 0 ers afire and beached another in the New Guinea hashes of Salamaia.

TERMED 1 UNFAIR

Soaks Small all Business and Lets Many Big Ones Out; | Rep. Cooper Charges.

WASHINGTON, March 13 (U. P.). —Rep. Jere Cooper (D. Tenn), told a representative of the National Association of Manufacturers today that his organization's 1942 war revenue . recommendations vsoaked” small business and left “a lot of big ones out.” o “your plan,” Rep. Cooper told J. Cheever Cowdin, chairman of the N. A. M. tax committee, “does favor the largest corporations in the country.” Mr. Cooper, who is chairman of the house ways and means tax subcommittee, confronted Mr. Cowdin with the example of a corporation earning $100,000,000 in 1942, with average earnings from 1936 to 1939 of $60,000,000. “That corporation would pay $40,000,000 under your program and it now pays $47,000,000 under the present law,” Mr. Cooper said. “So it would pay $7,000,000 less under your program than it now pays.” Ei Mr. Cowdin conceded that a “narrow margin” of corporations— with earnings ranging from their pre-war earnings to twice their pre-war earnings—would pay less taxes under the N.:A. M. program than they now pay. “But every corporation under and over that,” Mr, Cowdin said, “will

dation was made deliberately for ‘harship’ cases and to facilitate conversion of industry to war production. The N. A. M. program, he sgid, would increase the taxes of all corporations by a total of $1,400,000,000. “Yes” Mr. Cooper interjected, “your * program would soak the small ones still more and let a lot of big ones out.”
