Released by Western Newspaper Union. those of Taking their first offensive action in the southwest. Pacific since their disastrous defeat in the Battle of the Coral Sea last May, the Japanese landed an invasion force at Buna, 100 miles directly across the eastern arm of New Guinea from Port AusMoresby, last Allied outpost of tralia. A Melbourne communique reported that United Nations planes had attacked the invasion fleet and sank a large transport and barge, but did not prevent the landing. On the Chinese front the Japs did not have such happy tidings to report to Tokyo. First item of bad news was the recapture by Chinese armies of Kienteh, a key point southwest of Hangchow. Second item was a report that United States bombers had sunk two Japanese naval craft on the Fu river in Kiangsi province. Meanwhile along the Hangchow-Nanchan- g railway the Nipponese invaders were being constantly harassed by Chinese guerillas. The official Central News agency disclosed that Chinese farmers had been armed with 30,000 rifles in each county of western and southern Chekiang province. They are organized into units strong enough to destroy small enemy detachments. If superior Japanese forces approach, they withdraw, leaving their villages stripped. ANTI-INFLATIO- Maj. Gen.

Taking part in a recent bombing raid on enemy airfields in Holland, Kegelman brought his ship back safely after one motor was wrecked and a wing damaged in fighting with German air forces. POSTWAR WORLD: Hull Envisions Cordell Hull broadcast an appeal for a safe and saner postwar world, it was clear When . silvery-haire- d that a majority of Americans agreed with his thesis that the peace as well as the war must be won by the United Nations if future chaos is to be avoided. In an address heard around the world, the secretary of state made these points: 1. The United Nations immediate problem is to win the war decisively. 2. After the war surveillance must be exercised over Germany, Japan, Italy and their satellites by the United Nations until the aggressors prove their willingness and ability to live at peace with other nations. 3. Disputes must be settled by peaceful means. An international court of justice would provide respect for law and obligations. 4. Freedom is to be assured by removal of economic and political shackles. Errors of extreme nationalism that caused the present war must be avoided.

Regarded as an able strategist, Admiral Leahy, in the words of President Roosevelt, will serve as his eyes and legs and relieve him of many detail duties. The Chief Executive, however, made it clear that Leahy would not be supreme commander of the United Nations forces, or even of American forces.
