Missionary Refugees
Thankful They Vetoed
Direct Ship
Arrive From Singapore
BY Roundabout Route;
Other Vessel MISSING

II Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Thomas had
taken the ship which was going
directly back to the States" when
they were fleeing from the japanese
in Java, they might still be missing
today rather than safe at the home
of Mr.. Thomas sister il Arlington,
Va.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas were in
Singapore December 7 when jap
anese bombs killed 100 persons there
He was an employe of the Meth
odist Church mission in Singapore.
He and his wife stayed on after the
first attack, hoping against hope
that the enemy would be held back
in Malaga.
Prepared Excert For Planes.
singapore itself was prepared for
the attack except for one thing
planes" Mr.. Thomas explained. We
had plenty of food and the civilians
all knew what to do in al air raid
But without planes we we're help
less
Mr.. Thomas said that he never
saw japanese plane go down
They came in waves, anywhere from
25 to 125, Mr.. Thomas added, never
wavering as they flew over the city
dropping their deadly bomb loads
An illustration of SingaporeS
inadequate air protection is Mr
Thomas statement that he never
saw a dog fight over Singapore al
though he watched the sky con-
Stantly.
Propaganda had softened the
population, Mr.. Thomas said so
that everyone felt that the Japa-
nese couldn't attack the island.
After December 7, the propaganda
became intimidating rather than
reassuring, he declared.
Nearly Missed Boat.
He and Mrs. Thomas finally de-
cided to leave January 80. Be
cause of air raids they almost
missed the freighter which was to
take them to Java.
Two alerts were sounded on the
morning they were to leave. To
permit them to go, Mr.. Thomas
had to drag Chinese clerk out of
an AFRAID shelter to get their
papers. When they got to the
dock they found it almost sham
bles. The boats all around the
one they were to take had been
hit but theirs had escaped damage
With 10 other Americans they
Travelled in the hold of the freighter
across the Malacca Strait to Ba-
tavia. The trip took three days
and they had to live on the boat
for two days after arrival because
there was no room for them in
the town.
After a week they got tickets
which read: From a por1 in Java
to a port in Australia" They did
not take the ship, which was leav-
ing Surabaya for San Francisco,
because they felt that since Sura-
baya was a naval base they would
be inviting danger
The ship left Surabaya several
days before the Dutch steamer
which the Thomases eventually
took II has not been heard from
since, Mr.. Thomas said.
Arrive in L. S. on Easter.
The Thomases left Tjilat tjap, Java,
In convoy, arriving in Australia.
There were 100 other Americans
on the Army transport which
brought them to this country, in
Guiding % Methodist missionaries
and workers. Some enemy planes
were sighted, but the ship was not
attacked.
They arrived in San Francisco on
Easter Sunday.
One of the % members of the
Methodist mission party on the
transport was the Rev. Preston L.
Peach, brother Of Marvin Peach,
Upper Marlboro Md attorney,
The Rev. Mr.. Peach returned to
his home about month ago.

Navy 10 Transport Ballots
To Military Personnel

Personnel Of the Navy, Coast
Guard and Marines throughout the
world will be given a chance to vote
in the fall elections under a plan
partially worked out by the Navy.
A Navy announcement said yes
terday that all possible efforts will
be made to carry out provisions of
the soldier vote bill signed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt this week. The Navy
is issuing a notice to ships and shore
stations telling the men they may
get ballots by writing to the secre-
taries of state in their home States.
Despite the fact that Secretary
Knox had said earlier that he con-
sidered the plan impractical, the
Navy will transport the ballots to
the voters and back before the elec-
tions whenever possible.
Secretary Knox had said pre-
viously that the security dangers In
giving away the location of so many
units of men would make distribu-
ton of the ballots unwise.
The Army has announced through
Secretary Stimson that it is pre-
pared to administer the new law

to it that we write a peace in which
the things for which Hitler and Hit
ler's Germany and the things for
which the military caste in Japan
stand are utterly vanquished. There
can be no compromise
Dark as he painted the battle
fronts, Secretary Knox said the
picture is not all black
The Russians, in their gallant,
steadfast and resolute defense of
their homeland, have made the Ger
mans pay fearful price.
In the air, attrition of his air
forces along the Russian front, in
Egypt and on the British front has
been such that, with Allied produc-

never worked before to make our
country strong in unity-that unity
