Battle For Milne Bay Is _ Degvelioping

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS. Australia, Aug. Sll-tﬁaturday) —-tAPJ—1lcuvy fighting between veteran Australian and newly- lundcd Japanese troops the tortuous jungles surrounding Milne Bay in Southeastern New Guinea. was reported today by Allied Headquarters.

A small number of U.S. ser- vlce troops also were in the area. whore the Japanese first landed early Wednesday.

Low-flying Allied bombers were giving heavy support to the defenders by attacking the Japanese positions.

MELBOURNE, Aug. 28—(CP)—- The battle for control of Milne Bay, New Guinea, where c. Japan- ese landing force came ashore Wcdnssdciy night, was developing along the lines of jungle warfare totiight, while to the northeast an uncompromising life - and - death light- was in prospect for possession of the Solomon Islands.

Military observers said they thought it unlikclv the MLlne Bay operations would. turn into a Ditch- ed battle, since the topography did not lend itself to full-scale fighting, but that the Japanese shock troops would try to exploit their jungle ex- perience as they did on Malaya.

Control of Milne Bay, on the southeast tlp of New Guinea,_ would give the Japanese a base ori.y 420 miles from Australia.

Gen. Sir Thomas Blnmey, com- mander-ln-chief of Allied land forces in the South Pacific area, expressed the belief that the Al- lies would be successful in repulsing a Japanese attempt to loin forces with lthle diapanese in the Kckoda area. n an .

He also said that the battle for the Solomons “was not a slllslﬂ 11¢- tion but a battle which has reach- ed the aggressive staﬂe 111d mu“ be fought out until one side or the other is defeated."
