he was attacked by enemy pursuit
planes for 25 minutes. All four of
his gunners were wounded, one of
them fatally, and one engine was
put out of commission.
Returning to his base, he found

New Zealand Premier
Praises Defense
OF Conegidor
Cable to Roosevelt Coils
1t One Of Great Feots
In MiIitoY History
BY JOHN C. HENRY.

The American Filipino defense
of Corregidor will serve as an ever
lasting inspiration to all the ma
tions banded together to resist ag-
gression, President Roosevelt was
assured today by Prime Minister
Peter Fraser of New Zealand.
The Prime Ministers message of
sympathy and commendation for
those who fell with Corregidor was
received by cable and delivered to
the President by Walter Nash, New
Zealand Minister here.
Mr.. Fraser's message follows in
full:
will you kindly inform President
Roosevelt how profoundly the gov
ernment, Parliament and people
of New Zealand have been moved
by the fall Of Corregidor.
THE very gallant defense of the
fortress against overwhelming odds
has been. and ever will be an in
spiration and a glorious example to
all of us who are banded together
to resist aggression, and to preserve
and restore freedom.
"Corregidor has not been in vain
it will live forever in the memory Of
man as one of the great feats of
arms of all time"
In transmitting Mr.. Fraser's mes
sage, Mr. Nash told the President:
mo words of mine are necessary
to emphasize the feelings of all
lovers Of freedom at the magnificent
stand made by your forces at Cor
regidor, and 1 am honored by the
privilege OF conveying my Prime
Minister'S message to you"
The President conferred during
the day with the 'big three" of the
Nations fighting forces. At the
meeting were Gen. George C..
Marshall, Army chief of staff: It.
Gen. Henry H. Arnold, deputy chief
of staff for air. and Admiral Ernest

mo communication has been re-
ceived from the Philippines by the
War Department since early in the
morning of May 6. 1t is presumed
that all persons on the four fortified
islands are now prisoners of war.
The japanese government has
announced that it intends to follow
the provisions of the Geneva Con-
vention in its treatment of prisoners
of war. This convention provides
for exchange Of lists of prisoners of
war. AS soon as any list OF prisoners
is received from Japan, through
neutral countries or through the
International Red Cross. 1t will be
made public by the War Department.

Heavy Guns Won Battle.
Characterizing the defense of
Corregidor as we'll as the defense of
Bataan as lone of the most gallant
exploits in Army history" Mr.. Pat
terson declared:
1T compares with the defense of
Charleston in the Revolution, and
the defense of Petersburg, Va, by
Gen. Lees army in 1864"
Mr.. Patterson said that from in
formation received at the War De-
partment the fire of heavy guns
placed by the Japanese on Bataan,
was the factor that forced the sur
render.
This fire was so heavy and effec-
tive, he declared, it knocked out the
defenses Of the bay fortresses and
probably had more effect In damag-
ing installations than any attacks
in the air.
The prisoners and casualties to
american and Filipino forces on
the Manila Bay forts and Bataan
bring losses of combatants to ap-
proximately 81 900 electives, includ-
ing known casualties.
The reported losses in Bataan
were $4,000 electives and 5000
wounded.
Five Small Ships Sunk.
The Navy announced late yester-
day that the Corregidor forces in
cluded 3,845 men of the Navy and
Marine Corps. This detachment
was thrown together from the naval
and marine personnel left stranded
by the abandonment OF the Manila
area naval bases. 1t fought on
Bataan and was evacuated to Cor
regidor. The Navy communique
assumed" this force was captured.
1t also disclosed that five small
American vessels had been de-
stroyed. 1t said that the mine
cweeper Tanager and the river gun
boat Oahu had been sunk by enemy
gunflre from Bataan and that the
mine sweeper Pigeon had been sunk
by bombers. The river gunboat
Luzan and the mine sweeper Quail
were severely damaged by gunfire
and were sunk by American forces
when capture appeared imminent.
That Gen. Wainwright stayed with
his men to the last was believed GER
tain in official circles even before
Mr.. Patterson's comments today. as
a few weeks ago he expressed deter
mination to follow this course. no
matter what the future might hold.
L have been with my men from
the start, and If captured will share
their lot" he told an Associated
Press correspondent. "We have been
through SO much together that my
conscience would not let me leave
before the final curtain"

1t is perhaps an unnecessary
waste of words to pick out one
fal5ehood among so many. The
fact is that the actual Wilson pro-

December IS. 1919. That was in
the Senate which had Republican
majority of one-and which was
