The War Department in its communique today again suggested that the long-anticipated Japanese drive to crush American and Filipino resistance on Bataan Peninsula might be imminent.

Ironically they don't know how right they are. II Corps was severely hit last night by a Japanese attack which I'm sure will be reported tomorrow. Fortunately they have re-established its line by morning and in reprisal the Japanese will bomb a base hospital on the southern tip of Bataan on the 30th claiming the next day that it was unintentional.
