Slumbers Are Over

Madang, once a sleepy little port on the north coast of New Guinea, and now a Japanese-held base, has been constantly attacked by Allied aircraft. Bomb bursts from another plane are shown in this aerial photograph of a raid during which 38 tons of bombs were dropped. The Allied aircraft encountered heavy anti-aircraft If ire. —Photograph by US Air Corps and block by courtesy of “Sydney Morning Herald.”
