SHORTAGE
REPORTED HERE

The recent awarding of several
contracts for construction work at
Camp Davis has created a severe
shortage of construction workers
in the Wilmington area, according
to a statement yesterday by R. T.
Mcclellan, manager Of the United
States Employment Service.
Several hundred carpenters, lab
orers, bricklayers, and painters
are needed Immediately for this
work.
The need is made more urgent
by the fact that contractors are
faced with the problem of COM
plotting this work as speedily as
possible in order to provide ade-
quate facilities for incoming serv-
icemen at the convalescent ceater.
This work must be completed prior
to the time when convalescents
begin to arrive in large numbers,
it was point out.
All workers with construction
experience, who are not now
employed in essential work, are
urged to visit the United States
Employment Service offices, eth
er at Ill Grace street or $40 Red
Cross street for referral to this
vital work.

"A French soldier from lndo-China
told today of being cut down by
the sword of a Japanese execu-
toner and Of escaping from a mass
grave intb which he and So COM
rades were toppled.
He is Lance Corporal Fernand
Cron, from a French village near
La Rochelle, who was a telephone
operator in a small fort overlook
ing Dongdang when the Japanese
struck March Q.
There were ITO French and An
Mantle troops defending the little
concrete fortification when the
Japanese opened fire. After two
days of fighting, Cron said, Japa-
nese emissaries demanded uncon-
ditional surrender.
mo, we will fight to the last
man." shouted back the captain in
command.
That night Japanese anti-tank
guns knocked out the forts ma
chinegun emplacements. The Japa-
csc then forced an entrance and
the captain ran up the white nag
Cron said the Japanese general
commended the captain, said the
defenders had fought like lions, and
told him to 60 felicitate his troops,
! who were lined up under the muz.
zles of japanese machineguns.
When the captain returned he
was forced to st on the veranda
of the barracks with the japanese
general and seven of his aides.
Il saw them talking Cror
said. II couldn't hear What was
said. They seemed to be getting
along all right but one of the
aides got up, walked behind the
captain, and struck him on the
back of the head with his sword
still in its scabbard.
'The captain fell over. Then an
other officer stepped up and shot
him in the head where he lay.

The machine guns were pointing
at us. Then a Japanese officer
came to us and chose one third
OF the Europeans and one THIRD
of the Annamite troops as host
ages. We were nine Europeans
and there were 40 Annamites.
The hostages were taken along
with two Annamite women, who
had been in the fort, to customs
