Mac ARTHUR'S HEAD-QUARTERS, HEAD-QUARTERS, Australia. May 10J.P) United States bombing planes smashed 30 grounded Japanese planes at Lae, New Guinea, and destroyed ground installations at the nearby Salamau base, Gen. Douglas MacArthur announced today in his general headquarters communique. Three enemy Navy-o fighter planes were shot down in a savage sav-age dog fight over Salamaua. MacArthur said, against light allied forces. American pilots saw their bombs smashing into grounded Japanese planes at Lae and left great fires burning all over the airdrome. Direct hits were scored 3 gain and again on the pianes and all were heavily damaged if not blown to pieces. They Kought to 53, including the three lighters shot down over Galamaun, the total of enemy blancs destroyed in two days in knockout attacks on Japanese northeastern bases by allied planes, including United States tlying fortresses and Catalinaa. There were plain signs that New Guinea had become the hot Dpot in the south Pacific zone and r a major blow by one side or the ; ' other was imminent. Lieut. Gen. Sir Thomas Blam-ry, Blam-ry, Australian commander of all allied land forces in the southwest south-west Pacific, said today at his f first press conference that the ' Japanese might strike soon but that if they did not. the allied strength wouIg reach a point where any emmy attack would have to b'- on & great scale to make any impression. Japanese planes, extending their attack Eone in . the northeastern north-eastern invaSi'cn area, raided the "allied airdroiuo on Horn island, 15 miles off Cape York at the northeastern tip of the Australian Austral-ian continent. They used eight heavy bombers, bomb-ers, escorted by fighters, but inflicted in-flicted only negligible damage. Gen. MacArthur's c o m m unique said. United States and Australian airmen who made the second attack at-tack on Lae in 24 hours saw their bombs striking among enemy planes, drawn up in lines on the air fields, and among airdrome buildings, and saw fires blazing as they made for home. Both the Lae attack and the abortive Japanese raid on Horn island, emphasized the belief at headquarters that a decisive stage in the steadily intensifying aerial war in the northeastern Australian Austral-ian zone is imminent. The Japanese have been strlk- ing with Increasing strength at Port Moresby, on the south coast of New Guinea, and allied planes have steadily Increased the power of their attacks on such enemy bases as Lne and Rabaul. on New Britain island. Belief is growing here tlyU the Japanese must either move soon using their great Rabaul base as their jumping off point in a drive to the south or get out of the entire area. Both allied and Japanese air forces are oeiicvcu to be using the greater part of their avail-aMe avail-aMe resources in planes at the moment in a grim fight for aerial aer-ial supremacy over New Guinea. 10 Win $85,000 Ice Break Pool NENANA, Alaska, May 1 U.n Ice cakes floated down the Tanana river to the Bering Sea today, symbolizing new wealth for lucky guessers who shared in the 10-day division of an $85,-000 $85,-000 pool.
