Fallen Corregidor presumably
yielded 1000 prisoners, both
Americans and Filipinos, 1t ap-
peared this afternoon as the War
and Navy Departments pieced
together information available
at the time the Manila Bay
Fortress succumbed to repeated
pounding by the Japanese.
From the Navy came announce
ment that 3,845 naval and Marine
Corps officers and men were be-
lieved captured. and that six Ameri-
can vessels had gone down in the
last stages of the desperate battle
to hold the island.
For lack of word to the contrary.
1t was assumed that the prisoners
included a detail of Army nurses
who attended the wounded of Ba-
taan and we're transferred to the
island when the fighting ceased on
the peninsula.
Listed as sunk by either enemy
shelling from Bataan or by bombers
were the river gunboatS Oahu and
Mindanao and the minesweepers
Tanager and Pigeon. In addition,
the river gunboat Luzon and the
mineSweeper Quail, which had oeen
severely damaged, were sunk by the
defenders when capture seemed IN
minent.
Although an official overall figure
on the number of defenders on Cor
regidor and its neighboring Forts
Drum, Frank and Hughes was not
Immediately forthcoming. it was
thought that there were about 1000
troops and refugees on these island
bastions, this number including the
total announced by the Navy.
No Casualties i'm Sinkings.
The surrender of Corregidor was
revealed early today and came after
% days of siege, clipaxed by a day
of constant firing which swept away
the beach defenses and made it pos
sible for the invaders to pour ashore
from steel barges. The tired de-
tenders had lone been cut off from
supplies and reinforcements.
The Navy communique. based on
information received up to 3
o'clock, said that so far as is known
no casualties resulted from any of
the Sinkings. All local small craft
in the vicinity were demolished by
our forces before capture.
The naval forces at Corregidor
were in command of Capt. Ken
meth M. Hoeffel, native of Wis
consin, and the Marines were in
charge of Col. Samuel L. Howard.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May O.
Whether Chauncey Sparks. Eu-
faula's veteran legislator and bach
elor attorney, would be nominated
for governor by Alabama Democrats
with clear majority against four
opponents remained in doubt this
afternoon as mounting returns con-
tlnued to show him with a slight
margin over the field
Tabulation of unofficial returns
from 1884 of the States 2,29l boxes
gave MIR. Sparks a ma jority of 3 1897

be Mr.. Folsom. 33-year- -old political
newcomer who stands feet, 8

Official returns will be tabulat ted

Fs the Associated Press.
Senator Reynolds, Democrat,
of North Carolina quoted several
Government officials this after

from a military standpoint and
speedy congressional approval
was needed on a bill authorizing
the Government to requiSition

reporters that the lack of rubber
had become "perilous from a mill

civilian activities"
He said the first effect OF this
might be to reouisition all tires held
by private automobile owner in
excess of five for his car.
Little Rubber for Civilians.
Senator Austin, Republican, of
Vermont said he gathered from the
testimony that no new rubber would
be available for civilian uses at the
end OF one year and Senator Rey-
nolds said that any synthetic rubber
which was produced in the interim
would be put to military uses
The officials who appeared before
the committee included Price Ad-

who fought so valiantly under

wright, former commandant OF
Fort Myer, Va, until overwhelm-

Although the War Department

that neither Gen. Wainwright nor

were killed or surrendered to the
japanese on the beleaguered PEN
insula.
Lists May Take Weeks.
Weeks and even months may

lists of the casualties or tidings of
The survivors to communicate to their
families. While definite informa-
ton was lacking, report of the last
few days of fighting and lombard
ment on Corregidor indicated that
these casualties we're very heavy.
Unless some delayed report is re-
ceived, the names of casualties and
news of this nature now must be
relayed to Washington through the
International Red Cross at Toxic, or
through representatives of the Swiss
government in the Japanese capital.
At least one of the reported Wash
ingtonians in Bataan, 1t. James w.
Routh, jr., of 25l1 Q Street NV,
is now known to have been killed in
action. His death on April was
reported in casualty list released
