COLONEL HARDY

With the band playing "SCU"
as Col. Edwin N. Hardy came on
stage, the meeting of civilian en-
ployees opened last Tuesday morn
ing at Theater No l. In his address
to the group, Col: Hardy pointed out
that the purpose of the gatherings
was to make for better understand
ing between the command and the
employees, as well as to create bet
ter cohesion, resulting in better
service, morale and esprit Gle corps.
In general estimate of the situa-
ton, the post commander stated
that we should all be grateful for
the progress our fighting men were
making in bringing us to final VIC
tory. He stated that We Day would
probably result in increased activ-.
ity on the post, and that it is inn
portant to get our house in order"
The need for increased cOnserva-
ton was pointed out. Such subjects
as victory gardens and recreation
were discussed. Col Hardy stressed
the need for greater safety precau~
tions to avoid automobile accidents.
A session of "Gripes and Cheers"
followed, and the program was con-
Guided with a showing of motion

Echoes From The Pill Box
TRIBUTE TO LIT. ADAMS

1t is with grim recognition that
we say farewell to 1t. Adams ex-
co of the Detachment In 1t.

was as fair and indiscriminate as
the spring showers. He believed
i'm and practiced fairness and JUS

the interest and weIL-being of his
men at heart, at all times. Few
men have been as conscientious
and sympathetic and meme more
SO. 1t is with sincere good wishes
fer future success that we say so
long to a Competent leader and a
man in every sense of the word.
Fortunately, the place left vacant
by Lit. Adams has been ably filled
by Lit. Russell L. Jackson. 1t. Jack

ian life, knows and synpathize:

Convinced that Japan still screens
bomb targets with Allied prisoners,
the State Department today awaited
confirmation of Tokyo radio re-
port that Americans died in the
bombing Of Kawasaki July 26.
The department disclosed last
night that 1t had requested veriflca-
ton by the Swiss government and
International Red Cross. In an ac-
companying statement it denounced
"the persistent and methodical
practice of the Japanese govern
ment in locating prisoner of war
camps in areas subject to lombard
ment."
The statement noted that the
Japanese, while not signatory to
the Geneva Convention on war pris-
oner treatment, nevertheless had
promised they would honor the pro-
hibition against protecting target
areas with prisoners.
Replies to American protests that
the promise was not kept have been
evasive," the department said.
The Japanese broadcast said some
casualties, mostly American, result
ed when the camp at Kawasaki,
southeast of Tokyo, was struck
while the area was under aerial
bombardment.
