Soldiers Buy $13,00O,O0O
War Bonds Every Pay Day

Nearly 100000 soldiers, from pri-
Yates to generals, are buying ap-
proximately s13,O000O0 in War
Bonds every pay day, the War De-
partment reports.
Rear Admiral Charles Conard,
chairman of the Interdepartmenta
War Bond Committee, who received
the report of soldier purchases, said
he was so impressed he immedi-
ately forwarded it to the Secretary
of the Treasury.
Civilian employees of the War De-
partment are giving nearly Sc, 600, 900
in regular allotments for War Bond
purchases.
Abroad and in home camps
soldiers have spurred the bond pur-
chases and have set a mark for
civilians to shoot at. No quotas
have ever been set for the Army
and there has been no pressure
brought to bear, it was pointed out.
AS of September 80, there were
1,619,2 ,257 soldiers and officers buying
bonds through the Army payroll
allotment plan, with total monthly
deductions aggregating $11,154,819.
At the same time, 446 civilian
War Department employees were en-
rolled in the savings plan, with total
monthly deductions of $4.798,O ,O26, an
average of $1075 per person.
On the basis of September re-
ports, the War Department finance
office estimtaed that, as of October

Desperate for Food.
I had no clothes except the pair
OF shorts I was wearing, no shoes,
no weapons and I was hungry. I
hadn't eaten since noon on April
S and this was April 7. I left the
beach area and wandered through
the jungle to a small barrio had
visited just before the war. I was
desperate for food and water. The
village appeared deserted but I
didn't feel much like taking chances
on first inspection. I crept from
house to house until I rached the
center of the village. I knew then,
as think I had half suspected from
the start, that I was in a hornet S
nest.
The village was sleeping quietly
enough. 1t was the time OF the noon
siesta and there had obviously been
big party the night before. Every
house in that village was being used
as barracks for Japanese soldiers.
I could see their uniforms through
open doors, and their rifles and
machine guns were piled neatly out
side their shacks. I left the village
10 times as fast as I had arrived
but not until I had picked up
several bottles of Japanese beer and
some type of melon. 1t was the
only food and drink I had for seven
more days.
That afternoon I struck out
through the jungles to find safety
in the mountains. I walked for five
days in my bare feet, the rucks
cutting long gashes in my soles and
the mosquitoes hammering at me
constantly. The mountain nights
were almost freezing cold while the
tropical sun beat down without
a break.
I moved mostly by night, sleeping
in caves by day and always steering
clear of what appeared to be we'll
used trails. Several times I heard
and saw Japanese patrols prowling
through the dense jungles. Once a
group passed within inches of where
1 lay in hiding. Finally, exactly
week after my speedy departure
from the Cavite village, I met a

tions for the trip. We decided to
use the island as our meeting place,
and set about getting a food sup
ply ready and negotiating for boat.
But our plans were due for an
other abrupt change. 1t had be-
come increasingly apparent that
some natives on the island were
very much afraid of the Japanese,
and I feared that the arrival of a
second officer and our obvious plans
for escape would give some one
the idea of notifying the enemy
of our presence. I left another
bamboo wireless" message for
Lloyd Osborne, the man with whom
I planned to escape, with a friend
I knew I could trust and left the
island under cover of darkness sew
eral nights following.
Thirty days later We rendezvoused
at seacoast barrio. We knew we
were taking a long shot, and we
knew the odds were against us, but
l think we were so certain it could
be done, SO anxious for freedom
and another .7ghting chance at the
Japs and so convinced that if our
luck had lasted this long it wouldn' t
fail us now, we just weren't afraid
to try.
I went to bed with silent prayer
that first night, though; every
thing hinged on our being able to
keep our movements and our plans
a secret and on our ability to keep
hidden.

the woods near certain barrio
while he brought me food and cloth

Hide and Seek.
I rested there for several days,
trying to recover strength while I
had the chance. Then, about May
IS, began my game Of hide and
seek with the Japs, q game which
lasted until the day we set sail from
the Philippines, nearly three months
later.
I lived from village to village, hid
ing by day and moving by night. I
was caught in crossfire when it
came to getting help from the ma
tives I needed it desperately hun
dred times, but if I allowed them to
assist me and the Japs ever heard
rumors of it, I feared not only that
the one man who helped me would
suffer but that the whole village
would be punished. My job was to
keep away from friends and enemies
both.
Finally, I made my way to lonely
barrio somewhere in Luzon" where
I was able to make contact with GER
tain sympathizers and procure a
small sailing boat. I had originally
planned to remain in the barrio for
several weeks to recuperate. I had
jungle fever and was almost worn
out physically, but on the very night
I arrived word reached me via the
Filipinos' "Bambo Wireless" that
force of 500 Japs were making their
way southwark and would be in my
barrio that night.
Contact With Osborn.
I sailed Immediately for a lonely
island which I was certain would be
at least temporary refuge from the
Japs I stayed there for almost five
weeks, recuperating from fever and
general weakness until new and en-
couraging reports began reaching me
through our underground message
system.
There was another American off,
Ger some where in LuZon who had
the same idea I had-to escape to
Australia. He was in hiding and

scout to strike out alone for shore,
telling him to attempt to get boat
and come back for Arranzaso and
myself. 1t seemed the only hope.
I never saw him again.
ArranZaso was in a pitiful condi-
dition. He was completely worn
out. Besides, he was getting pan

that we would keep going anyway. He

into the sky occasionally as the
flames ate into ammunition dumps,
and great showers of sparks were
raining down in many places on the

When I turned back to Arranzaso
he was gone. I dove for nearly
10 minutes, trying to locate him
until I realized that he had de-
liberately slipped from his support
to drown himself so that I might
have a better chance for life and
freedom.
No cross will mark 1t. Albert
ArranZaso's watery grave, but I will
always remember him. He was a

The triumphant British submarine
Talisman returned from the wars
today with q story Of sinking an
enemy U-boat and . IS y000- ton Axis
troop transport and of damaging
an italian destroyer while playing
q lone hand In the Mediterranean.
The saga of the Talisman was
told by Capt Sydney Moffatt Raw.
director of Britain's undersea op-
erations In the Eastern Mediter-
ranean.
He said the submarine was sur
faced and patrolling the Nediter-
ranean at night when 1t suddenly
sighted the huge black form Of .
U-boat 100 yards OF. The U-boat
saw the Talisman at almost the
same moment.
Both submarines Immediately
started maneuvering to get the first
torpedo across. Two "tin f1sh"
swished by the Talisman and the
British boat replied with two rounds
from her guns. The second shots
hit the enemy.
Then an amazing thing hap
pened. RAW ssid. The U-boat now
was within IS feet Of the Talisman
with her coming tower open. She
