“GHASTLY RABAUL”
A JAPANESE WAIL FOR PLANES Recd. 10.50 p.m. New York, March 10 “Rebaul has become a ghastly, terrific scene, with insufficient planes to ward off a constant rain of bombs, day and night,” said a Japanese Army correspondent, quoted by the Tokio official radio, in a home broadcast. He added: "We feel we do not care what happens. Our lack of planes allows enemy aircraft to move freely, one hero told me. I often think perhaps there are no more planes left Japan, and I worry greatly.” The correspondent said that, convoys attempting to bring supplies meet with devastating attacks from Allied planes.
