about ascore or more patients, at
time when the Japs thought the
Swiss might be going to inspect

to suffer for it In inconceivable
ways.

guards because it was suspected he
had Ightened the work load of his
fellow prisoners.
Her outstanding recollection Of
the historic rescue at the Los Banos
prison camp, during which not a
single prisoner was a casualty, is
Of the perfect timing of the Army

the Filipino guerrillas.
Unforgettable, too, Is her men,

1t. Paige Is the recipient Of the
Nays coveted "Well Done" in the
form OF its Bronze Star Medal for
service above and beyond the call
Of duty.
1t fell to her lot during the Christ
mas season last year to give nursing
care to three of the most surly of
their Japanese guards, who under
went emergency operations at the
hands Of one Of our imprisoned
American surgeons.
"Yes, they all recovered, fortu-
nately for the prisoners" 1t. Paige
says.
This gallant Navy nurse talks quite
willingly Of the marvellous way the
adult prisoners at Los Banos made
IA wonderful Christmas for the
youngsters in the camp last year.
They somehow managed to make
their Christmas efforts a surprise,
too.
Bamboo and Rags.
The women fashioned attractive
dolls from carefully washed rags.
Native beans and seeds were used
for eyes, and bits of sticks for
mouths. Out of bamboo, the men
whitfield whistles, jumping Jacks,
little carts with wheels and even
toy jeeps, and fire engines with
extension ladders. Each child's
present had its initials on it and
an effort was made to bear special
preferences in mind. All the reward
these Santa Clauses needed was In
the unrestrained Joy which greeted
their creations.
1t. Paige said the main Christ
mas meal at Los Banos was of
course the same deliberate starva-
ton routine, scanty scoop of "lu-
gal" rice, cooked In cold water to
make it stretch further. AS their
only special dietary Yuletide treat,
the children were all lined up for
seconds" from what remained in
the bottom Of the great kettle in
which it had been cooked"
THE magnificence of courage is
demonstrated not only in battle" 1t.
Paige observed. In a prison camp
it. comes out in the way in which in
dividuals with exhausted bodies and
nerves stand up to the morale-sap-
ping strain Of daily irritants, and
yet somehow remain strong in spirit
and constant inspiration to
others"
Doctor Shows Courage.
One of the greatest acts of hero
ism which 1t. Paige saw was ex-

forming a company when they met
on a Hollywood lot.
When the show went into re-
hearsal, the embryo impresarios
were told it would never go: The
songs were dated; revivals are
rarely successful. But it opened
october 16 at the Ziegfeld Theater
featuring Dorothy as dancer and
Eddie Foy, jr., as comedian, got en-
thusiastic. reviews and became an
immediate sellout. Paula and Hunt,
their organization running smooth
ly, are looking for another produc-
ton.
Only one thing makes her sad.
She wishes her husband. Duke DAILY,
former orchestra leader, could be
here to share her fun. Duke has
not been heard from since he was
reported missing on mission over
France several years ago.
Fred Stone. now 72, came to his
daughters opening. And Carol,
starring in Dark Of the Moon" !"
wished her sisters luck. The trio
never disagree seriously about any
thing. They find their chief per-
ennial problem their age. When
Dorothy cuts her down a few years
in true theatrical tradition, she
must notify the other two, or she
may become younger" than her
younger sisters.

Celebrated visitors such as Douglas

Father Fred had sworn at the
birth Of his first daughter that he'd
never let his children 60. on the

his actress wife had been hungry

could hardly be kept out of the act.
So intimately had the girls

HIGHWAY PROBE:
Graft Charged

Spurred by charges that hun
dreds of millions of dollars are be-
ing grated on the construction Of
the inter-American highway linking
the U. S. with the Panama canal,
the senate war investigating COM
mittee prepared to undertake
probe of all projects on foreign soil.
Launched by the war department,
the inter-American highway came in
for the major attention, with Rep
resentative Arends Gill; pointing up
the charges with the declaration
that while private construction
firm botched UP a road building Job
in Nicaragua for $4,000 army
engineers laid a similar stretch per-
fectly for only $4,000, 900. Miles of
the private job are of soft road bed
and virtually impossible in many
parts, he said.
Echoing charges of Senators Fer
guson (Mich.); Moore (Okla.) and
Robertson (Wyo.), Representative
Arends also declared that most Of
the graft is made under arrange

TRUCK STRIKES:
CHS Mar, Vehicles

Thousands of army troops poured
into Chicago by air, vehicle and
train to man idle carriers and
break the back of an extended strike
OF members of two trucking unions
dissatisfied with War Labor board
ruling allowing them a raise of $4.08
for a 81 hour week. They asked for
So raise and 48-hour week.
Though neither the Independent
Chicago Truck Drivers union nor
the International Brotherhood Of
Transfers (AFL) officially called a
strike, some 10000 of their $4,000
members were out, with non-strik-
ing drivers afforded police and mill
tary protection on their routes. I'm
der federal law, union officers are
liable for prosecution for calling a
walkout on government managed
industries.
With workers ignoring their lead
ers' pleas to return to their jobs in
the early days of the strike, much
essential war and civilian freight
lay unmoved as the force of some
400 G.I.s and 1900 non-striking
drivers proved inadequate. When
union members persisted in holding
out, 10000 additional G.I.s were or
dered to the city. "The army will
break the strike. You can't beat
the United States army" said Ellis
1. Longenecker, federal manager for
the struck-bound properties.

PACIFIC: So y
Strategic Moves sa'''

Maneuverings by both Chinese
and japanese troops in China COM
manded the shifting spotlight in the
Pacific, with the enemy seeking to
strengthen his position on the
Asiatic mainland against an ex-
pected U. S. invasion.
Fevered Japanese activity In
China continued as Okinawa fell and
the enemy reported the anchorage
of 100 Allied transports off the Ryu-
kyus and the presence of an impress
sive task fleet in Formosan waters.
With Jap-occupied China con-
sidered a twin defensive bas-
ton along with the homeland, it
self, the enemy's movements
in the territory apparently were
designed to meet the threat of a
combined u. S. attack from sea
and Chinese assault on land,
while also consolidating commu-
nication lines.
Reports from the mainland con-
f1icted with the Chinese playing up
their assault on the big bomber base
at Liuchow previously lost to the
Japs, and the enemy emphasizing
action northeast of Hong Kong
where they claimed to have foiled
the plans of $4,000 Chinese troops to
aid an American landing.
While the Nipponese Unanswered
about in China, U. S. conquest Of
Okinawa made their overall position
even more precarious, affording an
excellent operational base for future
aerial, sea or land assaults on either
Japan itself or nearby enemy hold
ings, notably Formosa.
Marked by some of the blood
lest large-scale fighting Of the
war, the Okinawa campaign cost
the Japs over $1,000 in dead
alone, with the usual small
smattering of prisoners, who
failed to battle to the end like
the majority. Though over
whelming U. s. air, sea and
ground power doomed the enc
my from the start, the Japs
fought hard from cave-studded
terrain until the fall of the
Shuri line across the island de-
prived them of strong natural
flefenses. OF 45,O29 u. S. casual
ties, 11,2O9 were killed or miss
ing, and SS,769 wounded.
