Resistance Is Weak
(Radio Berlin quoted Japanese dispatches from Luzon that the “entire United States fleet and a num-
ber of British naval units” were concentrated in the Philippines area,
(The broadcast, heard by CBS, said Japanese military circles believed the naval concentration would lead to decisive operations “of vital importance to the entire East Asiatic theater of war in the not too distant future.) Japanese resistance, especially to the frontal push on Manila. continued negligible. , Filipino guerilla leaders said a large portion of the enemy garrison in central Luzon had withdrawn to the mountainous northern portion f the islapd. The question arose at headquarters whether the Japanese would attempt a stand at Tarlac, 656 miles north of Manila and logically the next defense line south of the Agno, or even make a strong defense of Manila itself. : The Japanese were known to be attempting to bring up troops, armor. and supplies from southern Luzon for a defense of Manila,

He urged his commanders, how- | ever, to lose no time in . pressing forward before the Japanese can; consolidaté their forces. One guerrilla leader said only a niinor portion of the Japanese garrison has been able to take up positions so far between the advancing Americans and Manila. The Americans plunged 30 miles inland to within 80 miles or less of Manila after forcing the Agno river at Bayambang, 25 miles by road north of Tarlac. The advance carried eight to 10 miles south of Bayambang. Eight-Mile Advance A dozen miles to the west, another column captured Mangatarem in the shadow of she Zambales mountains after an eight-mile advance from Aguilar, A third force struck due west from the center of the beachhead and approached Catablan, 12 miles inland, and the same distance southeast of Dagupan. The beachhead was broadened to at least 45 miles with simultaneous thrusts northeast and northwest around the U-shaped rim of Lingayen gulf.
