WASHINGTON, Jan. 2s-(R)

WASHlNGION, Jan. Z6-(A)
japanese efforts to stage a
triumphal tory parade
through the streets of Manila
with ragged, dying American
prisoners were offset by friend
illness of Filipino civilians.
This was reported tonight by
the war and navy departments
in an official account of atroci-
ties committed by the Japanese
on American and Filipino SOL
diers captured on Bataan and
Corregidor.
AS the bedraggled prisoners
trudged through the streets,
some stumbling out of line only
to be cuffed back by Japanese
guards, the Filipino citizens
watched for chances to offer
aid.
Then, said Commander Mel
vyn II. Mccoy, one of the pris-
oners who subsequently escaped,
If no guards were in the i'm
mediate vicinity, the Filipinos
along the route tried TO revive
the prisoners with ices, water
and fruits. These Filipinos were
severely beaten if caught by the
guards"

Britain, he warned, Will not

Edens statement came in the
wake of a u S. Army disclosure
in Washington that the Japan
csc had tortured, starved and
Wantonly murdered many of the
$4,000 American and Filipino
soldiers captured at Bataan and
Corregidor.
The Foreign Secretary charg-
ed that Japanese authorities had
dictated postcards and letters re-
ceived from prisoners giving the
impression they were in good
health and Well-treated.
THE information which has
just reached the government no
longer leaves any room for
doubt that the true state of af-
fairs is different one so far as
the great majority of prisoners

HOME FRONT FORECAST Landlords Asking Rent Increases Must Prove Substantial Hardship" 1"

stances which will make the owner eligible for more rent are: the case of an apartment owner who was renting his property to relatives for a small sum to cover expenses at the time the rent was frozen; or the case of an Army wife who hastily rented her house for $50 when she learned her husband was home from over- seas and stationed at 6 distant post. Tn such unusual cases, if the owner can show that his rent is below the general average for the area an increase will be given.
 "SuhstantiaI hardship" from inc creases in costs and taxes hasn't been defined yet, but it will prob- bably be limited. OPAs consumer advisory committee is urging that decreased services and upkeep be taken into account before a rent increase is given.
 You won't necessarily be called in to help decide the question of whether your landlord can charge you more. He must have a cer- iificate of OPA's approval, how ever. If you feel the rise is un- fair, or that your present rate is too high. you can appeal to tine area rent office.
