an inch square. A few times the
prisoners had comoties, an inferior
type Of sweet potato. Many were
rotten and had to be thrown away
Prisoners themselves had to post
guards to prevent the starving from
eating the rotten potatoes. The jn-
termittent ration of potato was one
spoonful per man. Once or twice
the prisoners received a few mango
beans, a type Of COW pea, a little
flour to make . paste gravy for the
rice, and a spoonful each OF COCO
nut lard. Col. Dyess' diet for the
entire 36b days he was a prisoner of
the Japanese, with the exception of
some American and British Red
Cross food he received, was a sort
Of watery Juice with a little paste
and rice. Some Japanese operated
a black market and sold those pris-
oners who had money a small can
Of fish for IS.
After the prisoners had been at
Camp O'Donnell for one week, the
death rate among American soldiers
was 20 a day, and among Filipino
soldiers $50 day. After two weeks
the death rate had increased to SO
q day among Americans and 500
day among Filipinos. To find men
strong enough to dig graves was a
problem. Shallow trenches were dug
to hold 10 bodies each.
'The actual conditions I find i'm
possible to describe" Col. Dyess'
statement reads. TT is impossible
from description to visualize how
horrible they really were"
Conditions Described.
One dilapidated building was set
aside and called q hospital. Hun
dreds of men lay naked on the bare
floor without covering Of any kind
There was no medicine Of any kind
The doctors had not even water to
wash human waste from their pa
tients. Some affiicted with dysentary
remained out in the weather near
the latrines until they died.
Men shrank from 200 pounds to
80. They had no buttocks. They
were human skeletons.
TT was plain and simple starva-
tion," Col. Dyess' statement reads.
1T was difficult to look at a man
lying still and determine whether
has was dead or alive"
The Japanese promised medicines
but never produced them. Once the
Japanese allowed the Red Cross al
Manila to bring in quinine. How
much, the prisoners never found out
The Japanese did not issue enough
to cure 10 cases of malaria, and
there were thousands.
The sick as well as those merely
starving were forced into labor de-
tails by the Japanese. Many times
men did not return from work. BY
May !, 1912, only about 20 out OF
every company Of 200 were able to
go on work details Many died in
the barracks overnight. Frequently
for no apparent reason, the pris-
oners were forced to line up and
stand In the sun for hours.
Around June l the American
prisoners at Camp ODonnell were
separated from their Filipino COM
rades In arms and moved to Cabana-
tuan Concentration Camp in Luzon.
There Col. Bsess joined Col. Mellnik
and Comdr. Mccoy.
Seepage Wells for Bathing.
Conditions at Cabanatuan were
slightly improved-there was ade-
quate drinking water and muddy
seepage wells provided water for
bathing. Japanese brutality con-
tinued, however.
Il had been at Cabanatuan one
day." Col. Dyess' statement read,
when a Jap came through the
barracks looting. He found a watch
hidden in some equipment of man
not present. AS was sitting nearby.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 5. up
Connie Mack started his second
half-century as a major league
manager today with the cheers of
10000 faithful Philadelphia fans
ringing in his ears.
The fans who jammed Shibe
Park last night made AIack's golden
anniversary celebration even more
memorable by the fact that they
came out in full force despite the
fact that there wasn't a subway, bus
OF street car running toward the
park because Of a transportation
strike.
DRAWS TRIBUTE
The fans turned out for Mr.
Baseballs' party at Shibe Park
because, as Lieutenant Governor
John Bell Of Pennsylvania put it:
Cornelius McGillcuddy is an in
stitutiOn that has grown on the
American public for more than fiji
ty years as a manager. It has grown
from the very cay that he first
started playing baseball many years
before he became a manager. He
is an institution who is known to
millions Of Americans as Connie
Mack
While the fans stood bareheaded
in silent tribute to Mack. Presi-
