in the panic of evacuation and star

General Of the Fifth Chinese Army.
I wanted to ask him If he was get

needed rice when there were bull

wanted to see for myself if the sto-
ries of sickness and starvation were
true. What | saw and found was
proof enough.
General Ho took me about three
miles down the road that led to SUI
prabum, and counted fifty-five bod
les of soldiers who had died either
of cholera or from starvation. AS |
walked among them, with the harsh
smell of death in the air, this Chi
nese General told me that his SOL
diers had been killed trying to get
bullocks from the Burmese. You
see, the Burmese are Buddhists, and
it is against their religion to eat
meat or to see the sacred bullocks
slaughtered. We must keep on drop
ping rice or the entire army would
starve, said the General And we
kept it up. dropping over two mil
lion pounds into Burma before the
armies were evacuated into India
for re-equipment.
