WE WERE fed very early breakfast
W on the morning of Aug. II, 1912,
after which we were made to clean and
polish the barracks latrine and yard At
7 a. M, when this task was completed, we
were formed in a column of fours, bur-
dened down with more than we had
planned to carry on our backs and
marched to the Tarlac railroad station.
We were probably pathetic looking

Of the weights on our backs it was impos-
sible to present any military bearing, any

So we just sIumped along the road
toward the station And then remarkable
thing happened to us. Hauntingly, un-
believably we became aware that some one
was whistling . WhiStling the Star

And then we discovered the whistler.

T PEEKED over my shoulder and saw the

box was labeled with Jap language charac-

ashes Of Jap soldiers being sent to home

We stood there another hott- and a

One was 1t Kusomoto, the Olympic

in our early days of captivity in Manila.

5E('Y ANDERSON TO Visit
kERF0RD QUARRY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1 (ANP)
Clinton Anderson, new secretary
of agriculture, heads west next
week on an inspection trip. His
goal is the famed Kerford quarry
at Atchison Kan, which has been
the target of much criticism since
it was acquired by the defunct War
Food administration to be convert
ed into cold storage plant.
The mine was obtained at time
when VIA was having difficulty
securing cold storage space for sur
plus supplies Of perishable prod
ucts. 1t has drawn much criticism
from congress and from members
of the cold storage industry. The
latter bitterly opposed leasing of
the mine and converting it into a
cold storage warehouse from the
very beginning.
But officials of the department,
knowing the need for additional
space and unable to find needed
space in warehouses already crowd
ed, seized the opportunity to get the
mine and recommended the expend-
iture of S2,0O0,O0O to properly E.
quip the huge space for storage. The
equipment consisted of refrigerat-
ing installations to lower temper
atures in the mine.
All kinds of charges have been
made against the mine and every

ally inspired monstrosity known as
the FEPC.
Il hope that the true friends OF
the democratic form of government
and the American way of life will
never forget my actions because
am rendering a really worthwhile
service against those fanatical
pressure groups.
"You know there are only 13
million Negroes in America and
five million Jews, making to total
of 18 million; yet there are 1873 mil
lion people in this country and | am
defending this 120 million against
the outrageous efforts of these two
groups of 18 million that are try
ing to run roughshod over the
rights and freedom of the 120 mil
lion white American citizens.

les in New York the other day and
told them if those Communists and
fanatical groups did not quit try
ing to pass such damphool legisla-
ton through the Congress to op-
press the people and rob them of
their freedom that eventually the
great mass of the American people
would revolt and figuratively liqui-

minor defect which arose was
pointed up and exploited. Little was
said at the time of the foods which

was no space in storage for them.
These included eggs and potatoes

mercial interests involved inter-
fered and sought congressional aid
by lobbying against the colored-
owned place.
Saying the department has much
invested in the mind, the secretary
said that his policy toward it will
be governed first by whether it is
"cheap and desirable place to
store food and second whether the
government will have anything to
store in it,
The warehousing industry has
constantly fought the use of the
mine and has been quick to point
out anything that it felt was wrong
with the plant. Competent engi-
neers representing the government

mitted their reports all of which
were favorable. This however did
not influence the warehousing in

such a project established. The
success of this project would cause
further expansion in this field and
the government and other produc-
ers would not be at the mercy Of
the warehousing industry.
