'SARDlNE' SHIPS
VITAL TO JAPS
BY RUSSELL BRINES
Associated Press War Editor


Deep in the holds of filthy ship.
hundreds Of japanese soldiers are
crowded so tightly that the rats
and cockroaches scurry away in
protest. Beneath them and around
them cargo is piled high. The 5000
ton craft groans and wallows on
her slow course.
This is Japan's war hybrid, the
freighter-transport, which has been
mentioned with increasing frequen-
cy in Gen. Douglas Macarthur S
communicates. Southwest Pacific
airmen thus far in August have
sunk or damaged 63 freighter :
transports.
The American, accustomed to
man-sized ships, is apt to disre-
gard as unimportant the mounting
toll OF these small vessels. Actual
ly they are vertebrae in Japan's
shipping backbone.
AS japanese prisoner in late 1912,
I Travelled from Manila to Shang-
hal aboard a freighter-transport.
She was the slatternly Maya Maru,
1000 tors of utility. ..... .
The Maya could hold probably
500 soldiers, under conditions to
which Japanese troops are accus-
toned. Her additional cargo space
was considerable. Every square
foot, seemingly, had been utilized.
There were no comforts.
We slept in troop quarters as
tern. Two holds have been outfit
ted with double-decked wooden
shelves, covered with . thin straw
mating. More than 200 of us were
dumped in there-civilian inter .
nees, neutrals, British Indians,
Formosan camp followers and a
few Japanese officers. Nipponese
soldiers were in similar quarters
forward. High-ranking officers &C.
cupied the ships few staterooms.
Each person had enough room to
lie down, provided she didn't toss.
Amidships, the shelves widened.
and sleeping there was T-forma-
ton. Additional holds, beneath us,

siderable loot from Manila.

tary facilities were mostly imagi
native.
The Maya was part of Japan's
numerically large war-impressec
fleet of coastal vessels and fishing
boats. As Allied aerial and sub
marine warfare claims heavier
shipping, Japanese replacement
are hundreds of hastily constructed
small vessels. They hope that mum
bers, rather than tonnage, will holt
their empire tosether.
The freighter-transport is the Ike,
to this fleet in miniature, for it i
