Australians sa‘d. there 1s not much reason why they can not come 3.000 miles farther south. . Linked with Australsfls deciiion to make her continent safe from attack by air and by sea is a plan to develop a great armaments in- dustry to supply most of the wllnlrys needs,

Austraian factories will turn out airplanes. mines for harbor anti- suhmarine defence, depth charges. anti-aircraft us, optical equip- ment for artil ery, gas masks and other needs for a comprehensive defence program

For the f st time Australisls fie- fence network _will be pushed to her Island territories north of the cun- tinent. Development of Port mores- by in Paplla as a combined naval and air base is dmigned to repel possible attack by forces operat ng rom the three groups of Islands Japan holds under the League of Nations mandate and which she re- tahilied when she quit the League in

Observers here say Australia wou.d have built a. naval airdrome farther north. at Tabaul in New Guinea, if her league mandate for this territo . did not expressly for- bid fortifica Eon.

A second air base. linking Port Moresb with Sydney and other large c ties in the south. is planned for Townsville, on the east coast of Queensland.

Defences of Darwin, chief port in the northern territory, also will be eupandsd. Defence Minister A. I.

A British Government suggestion that Australia add a battles lp to her navy was turned down because of the high out. but the defence program significantly includes a dock at Sydney for capital ships. British naval e rts have said f/hllt if Australia h one capital ship "any possible enemy" would have to detach two similar vessels from its navy lo deal with it. ‘
