ALLIED SUBMARINES
AMERICAN AND 'DUTCH IN SOME STRENGTH IN PACIFIC. ATTACKS ONt JAPANESE SUPPLY LINES. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, Noon.) WASHINGTON, March 18. It is learnt from informed Dutch naval quarters here that Netherlands submarines which escaped from Java waters are now operating with American submarines against Japanese shipping in the South-west Pacific. Naval authorities said that though it was not possible, for reasons of military secrecy, to disclose the number of submarines or the bases from which they are operating, they present a sufficient number to harass the Japanese supply lines and help to make things hot for the Japanese. Some Dutch submarines are believed to be operating north of the Philippines.
