months of caring for what had orig
inally been our herd, the nutrition
was gratefully received.
Col. Sasawa and his men became
regular visitors and soon dropped
all pretense about their mission in
life.
One Of his brightly smiling lieu
tenants came into my little room
one day. Gen. Wainwright" he
said, what do you want most in the
world?"

minated and get back to my coun-
try" I answered.
That was his cue. Exactly! And
I know way to do just that" he
beamed.
I guess I raised an eyebrow at that.

President Roosevelt and tell him
there is no use for America to carry
on this war any further 80"

stood up. Il decline to discuss
this matter with you, I said as
heatedly as I could. Now I will
be pleased if you will leave this
ROOM"
He left, but the Jap propaganda
department, in whose tolls we were
now enmeshed, was far from dis
couraged. Col. Sasawa sent word a
few days later that we were all in
vited to picnic near a Shinto
shrine in a pretty natural setting
on an adjoining hillside.
We all accepted, for there was a
promise that the food would be good.
And it was. We had two delicious
roast ducks, which we ate until the
bones were bleached not know
ing until we had finished (and this
information came from a very
grieved Sergt. CARROLL that we had
eaten Donald.
The Japs had grabbed our pet a
few hours before the picnic, I
learned, twisted his neck over the
angry protests of Carroll and Sergt.
Maj George Pitch, a great old York
shireman who had helped Carroll
raise Donald to the ducks final
plumpness.
All of us had grown attached to
Donald SO none of the officers at
the picnic were in a very receptive
mood when Col. Sasawa stood up
at its end, belched appreciatively,
and launched into an attack on the
Allies. He was particularly abusive
about the United States. In shocked
tones he painted us a lurid picture
of the breakdown of the morals of
young American women during the
war. As for the chances of an
American victory, he laughed scorn-
fully.
No Chance to Win.
"You have no chance of beating
Japan" he cried, looking at me.
I will tell you this: 1t took 10000
American troops to defeat 1000 jap
anese soldiers on Attu Island Ten
to one!
Now there are 100,000,0O0 people
in the japanese empire" he went
on. 1T will therefore take 10 times
| 100, 100000 people to defeat Japan.
To move such force against Japan,
even if you had that many war;
riors, would be impossible. 1t will,
therefore, become matter of gen.

parley Fails 10 Decide
On Taxi Rate Boost

An hours conference between the
Public Utilities Commission and
taxicab union spokesman over the
unions proposed upward revision
OF rates for group riding terminated
today with no decision.
A statement approved by both
groups said the matter will be the
subject Of additional study.
The revision proposed by Local

understood to call for an increase
from 20 cents to Is cents in the
first zone, 80 cents to 40 cents in
the second zone, 40 cents to SIS cents
in the third, so cents to TO cents
in the fourth.
Thomas O'Brien, organizer for the
international Brotherhood of Team
sters, said after the conference that
he believed there would be COM
plete cooperation fro mthe Utilities
Commission.
I'VE have no complaint against
the PUC-up to this point" he
declared.
Meanwhile, an investigation of the
practices of the Board of Revocation
and Restoration of Operators Per-
mits has been ordered by the Com
missioners on the basis of complaints
by taxicab operators.
Charles Stofberg, special assistant
to Commissioner Young, was named
to make the investigation. Mr.. Stof-
berg plans to ask taxicab union off,

Shortage Of Milk Here
Seen Shortly, Officials
Hope TO Squeeze By

An Agriculture Department Of
fetal today reported an .sunprece-
denteds increase in milk consump-
ton in East and Northeastern States
as spokesman for the Maryland
and Virginia Milk Producers Asso-
citation warned OF a shortage in the
Washington area in a matter OF
days. ~
The official said the milk crisis
may continue until the first of the
year but that the department hoped
to squeeze through" without REIN
stating war food order 70 controlling
milk quotas, lifted after VI day.
On top of a Is per cent wartime
increase in milk consumption, milk
and dairy product use has increased
another per cent since restrictions
on use of heavy cream and amounts
of butterfat used in ice cream were
removed, he said.
Some Products to Leave Market.
Bruce B. Derrick, manager of the
Maryland & Virginia Milk Pro-
ducers' Association, predicted cot
tage cheese, buttermilk and
chocolate milk would go off the
market by the week end as milk
supplies drop seasonally and con-
sumption rises.
Mr.. Derrick estimated the current
milk deficit here at 10000 gallons a
day. Current production was esti-
mated at 1870 gallons daily.
The Office of Price Administra-
ton, he said, has been asked to
adjust prices to allow milk handlers
to import" milk from outside the
Washington milkshed and thus ell
leviate the shortage.
An OPA spokesman said the
agency was considering a price pro-
posal from producers on the pur-
chase of milk from a large manu-
facturer with plants in Indiana and
Ohio. He pointed out that, the
problem was complicated because
milk also is scarce in some metro
poiitan areas in those States ano
that moving milk here might COM
plicSte the supply elsewhere.
81 Per Cent Rise in September.
George Irvine, Washington milk
marketing administrator, estimated
milk consumption here in September
rose ga per cent over the same
period last year. He said figures fol
October were not ready but pre-.
dicted a possible increase.
Mr. Irvine added that it might
be four weeks or more before the
situation eases. Some distributors
he said, are unable to give Gus
toners fair share of milk every
day. This is particularly true fol
restaurants.
The Agriculture Department off,
cial pointed out that New York
City's Board of Health had beer
forced to ban the use of heavy cream
so that more milk would 60 into

first suit of its kind filed in District
Court, Alexander J. Sivers, 480o
block of Forty-first street NV, a
taxicab driver. To-Day asked the court
to enjoin the District Commissioners
from revoking his identification

recommendation that Mr.. Siyers'

however, that the identification card
has not yet actually been taken
away.
Was Waiting Time.
The 25-cent charge, the suit said,
was for Mr.. Sivers' waiting time to
pick up a woman friend of the
passenger.
The suit says Mr.. Sivers has been
driving a taxicab for Is years and
that the order of revocation is sex
cessive" and would deprive the driver
OF a livelihood. 1t further claims
Mr.. Sivers was not represented by
counsel before the board and that
the Commissioners are without au-
thority to delegate to the board
matters involving revocation of an
Identification card.
The suit says one OF the issues
before the. board was an "interpre-
tation Of what personal services con-
sisted Of" Elsewhere, the suit says,
evidence before the board was in
adequate and insufficient. 1t also
states Mr.. Sivers had no opportunity
