OF NAVAL ACTION REPORTED BV TOKIO BUT POSSIBILITIES SEEN. DISPOSITION OF JAPANESE FORCES. (By Telegraph—-Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK, November 24. The “New York Times" Pearl Harbour correspondent stales that ,though Admiral Nimitz is certain that there are no large naval clashes at present, observers here would not be surprised if one develops because it is deducible from recent dispatches that Japanese naval power is concentrated between the Japanese Empire and the Solomons W ‘The S United States Navy still faces a grim struggle for supremacy in the Pacific,” declares the New York “Sun writer, David Lawrence. Despite optimistic inferences, the United States is not yet assured of victory. The Japanese have a substantial navy left. It can impede our advance in the Solomons and is still capable of a serious attack on Midway and Hawaii. . “Few will know till the war is oyer what risks were involved m dispersing our ships in the Atlantic and the Pacifie and how badly needed is that twoocean navy which will not be ready before 1944-45.”
