Australian 25-pounder field guns were shelling Japanese jungle posts near loribaiwa (New Guinea) throughout Thursday. The guns kept up a harassing fire on enemy positions. This is the first time in the Owen Stanley campaign in which our troops have had the support of artillery fire. “Artillery support should be as heartening to them in the Qjven Stanley area as air support was at Milne Bay,” says the “Daily Telegraph’s” commentator.
