SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., August Netherlands East Indies are probably in a much stronger position for self-defence from foreign attack and invasion than is generally thought, according to a survey recently completed by the Institute of Pacifie Relations.

While official figures on the strength of the Indies de- fences have been veiled in secrecy since 1933, unofficial sources place the strength of her naval defences at one bat- tleship, three cruisers, eight destroyers, 18 submarines and 42 torpedo boats.

Naval authorities have long re- garded the submarine as the best means of naval defence for small countries which cannot indulge in

·large navies and the number which the Netherlands Indies are now known to

would possess doubtedly play an important role not only against any naval attack on the islands but especially against transports trying to land military expeditions.

-

As the islands have only a limited number of ports at which. auch debarkations could take place, the potential striking power of the Indies submarine feet is greater than' might otherwise be the case,

· An unusual feature of the In- dies destroyers and minelayers, is that they are, equipped to carry

"Planes"

A plentiful supply of aviation fuel has been assured by the con- struction of two high-octane avia- tion gasoline plants.

The Netherlands Indies arc well equipped from the standpoint of aerini defence and for the bombing of attacking ships. The airforce includes Martin bombers, Koolhovena, Fokkers, and German Dorniers. Several excellent mill- tary bases and numerous secret airfields have been built in the Jungles of the archipelago. Ground defence crews are equipped with Vickers anti-aircraft guns.

FAMOUS BRITISH

REGIMENTS

!............. ROYAL INNISKILLING FUSILIERS ******

No regiment has a richer heritage of tradition than the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers. Stubborn in defence, forth. right in attack, never flinch- ing before the hardship of a campaign, its record is typical of the British Army,

The Inniskillings Arst appeared In the successful defence of the town of Enniskillen, when the loyal settlers in that town and district of the North of Ireland with- stood

1088 In the year a siege against the native clans, and finally in 1888 closed the gates of the city against the troops of James II and declared for King Willam.

Some wonderful feats of endur- unce are un record from these early days. Once the Inniskilling forces marched forty miles in two days before meeting their enemy, and then defeated them. On another occasion they had marched twenty- one miles Immediately before going into battle, and, fighting on empty stomachs, won what Macaulay has described na "the most remarkable victory of irregulars over regular troops over recorded."

The first great engagement in which the Iriniskillings fought as regular regiment was in the Battle of the Boyne in July, 1690, when King Willlain appointed them as thin guards for that day.

picturesque Incident occurred, A regiment of the French Grenadiers confronted the Inniskilling Fun- llers,and a French officer advanced In front of the line and challenged any one of the Inniskillings single combat.

His challenge was tunediately accepted by Captain Waldron, who sprang eagerly to meet him, and after a few rapid passes laid the Frenchmon dend at his feet. Ex- elted by the victory of their chon- pton,

the Inniskillings dashed for- ward with the bayonet, and the enemy was forced to retreat.

The regiment was present at the Bottle of Waterloo, and never was its power of endurance more severely restedt.

Throughout the day they endur- cd a pitiless cannonude from the French batteries, and were exposed 10 incessant charges of French In an ever- cavalry, standing diminishing square. Finally, when the battle was won, two-thirds of the Inniskillings lay dend or wounded on the ground, their Jor being the heaviest of any British regiment on the field. Speaking of the Inniskillings, the Duke of Wellington Bak:-That is the re- giment which saved the centre of iny line at Waterloo."

In 1835, 1846 and 1847 they were British engaged in protecting colonists against the Kaffies and Boers,

and in 1857 took part in quelling the Indian Mutiny. The regiment was not again employed on active service until the year 1897, when they took part in the Firuh compalan on the Indian frontier

RECORD

the Inniskillings Independence were actively engaged, and, not- withstanding the issue of the con- test, had no cause to feel dissatis- fed with the manner in which they had carried out their duties.

They were next engaged under the Duke of York in Holland, from 1794 to 1795, and in the following year they proceeded, under Sir Ralph Abercromby, to oust the French from the island of St. Lucia, in the West indies.

The conduct of the Royal Innly~ killing Fusiliers stood out in the

In 1700 the regiment was, again In Holland, and at Callansterg and Bergen their soldierlike conduct eamed the thanks of their General on the field of battle.

In 1801, the regiment again won distinction under Abercromby in Egypt, when Napoleon's Army of the East was forced to capitulate and abandon that country.

Five years later the Inniskillings were engaged in preserving Sleily from Murat.

During the Peninsular War, when Wellington forced the French back troin Spain over the Pyrenees, the Inniskillings earned their full meed of glory.

They fought at Badajoz, Sala- manca, Victoria, in the passes of the Pyrenees, and at Nivello, Orthes and Toulouse.

They also took part in a seriousi engagement at Castalia, where a
