men trudged back afoot, carrying
their wounded on quickly made lit
terS or on the backs of the strong.
1t was fearful trek.
In the midst of the fight for the
Moron-Bagac road I was ordered by
Macarthur to withdraw all forces to
the reserve battle poSition'-a line
running close to and approximately
parallel with the Pilar-Begac road,
which crosses Bataan like a waist
belt.
That withdrawal, which had to be
effected by the morning of January
26, had an obvious purpose. 1t
moved the I and II Corps back to
less mountainous ground, relieved
the pressure on Parker and got us
away from that internal mountain
which separated our corps in the
first position on Bataan.
My Corps new area now reached
down Bataan all the way to the
southern tip, including the town and
Bay of MariveIes, near which latter
point our engineers we're building a
base for the bombers which never
came to our aid.
Had Varied Fighting Corps.
BY now I had one of the most
amazingly varied fighting corps in
the history of United States arms.
NV new lineup of units included
Brig. General William E. Brougher's
18th Division, Brig. Gen. Fidel "
Segundo's dead-tired 1st Division;
Brig. Gen. Clinton Pierce's list Di-
vision; Brig. Gen. Luther R. Stevens
91st division, the 45th Infantry Regi-
ment of Philippine Scouts; the tat
tered remnants of the 26th Cavalry,
now commanded by Col. Lee Vance;
small group of planeless flyers and
ground crewmen, some Air Corps
Engineers, a detachment of about
450 sailors, and the End Philippine
Constabulary.
! The grounded airmen were almost
| totally unfamiliar with firearms
and, along with the sailors, had no
infantry training.
We spit on our hands and waited
for the enemy to come again.
If we had had something in our
bellies, some hope that we could
expect help from the United States,
things might have been a little
more endurable. But our perpetual
hunger, the steaming heat by day
and night, the terrible malaria, for
which we did not have enough
quinine, and the means of the
wounded, were terribly hard on the
men, especially when all this was
piled on top the knowledge that
the Japs were coming at us again

Coal, Currency and Oil
Split Control Group

LONDON, Oct. IS (P).-A sharp
disagreement has developed in the
Allied Control Commission in
Vienna over Austria's currency, coal
and oil problems, British officials
disclosed today.
InformantS said the Russians had
refused to approve a new Allied
currency plan on the grounds that
1t must be studied further and was
not urgent.
London quarters said the Rus
SLAMS also have refused to approve
a trade agreement whereby Czecho-
slovaks would exchange some of
their surplus coal with the Aus
trians. The Russians were reported
to have taken the position that
since DR.. Karl Renner's provisional
Austrian regime was not recog-
nlzed government it could not make
valid international agreements.
Reports from Vienna said that
while the Soviet proposal to extract
so per cent of Austria's oil was
Shelved, the Russians were exploit
ing oil resources in their occupa-
tion zone and preventing export to
other zones.
London informants said the
Americans and British have eX-
pressed serious concern over the
Soviet removal of oil from Austria,
which has less than enough for her
own needs.

Beginning of the Battle for Bataan

and there was little room left tor
retreating.
The horses of the 26th Cavalry
had to be shot by the men they had
served so gallantly, and eaten by
all of us. The horses had eaten all
the rice straw stacks remaining in
that tip of Bataan since the last
harvest. There was no forage for
them-and their tough meat be-
came eagerly sought slivers in our
rice.
Joy Didn't Last.
Over on Corregidor the radio sta
ton which Macarthur had renamed
The Voice of Freedom" played us
some swing tunes and told us on
Bataan that help was on the way
When we first heard that, some OF
the men wept with joy. But that
JOY did not last long. For. you see,
the announcer said such things only
to try to throw little fear of God
into the approaching Japs.
1t was about that time-when we
fell back to what must be our last
position on Bataan-that my friend
Frank Hewlett, the war correspond
ent, wrote the little tune which
went:
We're the battling bastards OF
Bataan-
No momma, no poppa, no Uncle
Sam.
No aunts, no uncles, no nephews, nc
nieces,
No rifles, no guns or artillery pieces
And nobody gives a damn.

us in our new positions down towarc

Crashing Line

With a laundry bag slung over
his shoulder, Senator Bilbo of
Mississippi passed unrecognized to-
day through a line of marchers
picketing his Washington residence,
the Capitol Towers Apartments, 208

The pickets were led by Edward

the southern tip of Bataan.
The Jap landing at Longoska-
wayan Point, not far from Mariveles
and the most southerly of the real
attacks, was well contested by a
battalion of the 45th Infantry
(Scouts) and by $50 sailors under
Comdr. Bridget, U. S. N.
The force that came ashore al
Quinauan Point, at the other end o1
the ur-pronged landing, ran into
a small, tough group of Air Corps
Engineers and Maj Dudley G
Strickler's fine Sd Battalion of the
45th Infantry.
At Agloloma Point the Japs hardly
touched the beach. Troops along
the beach defenses shelled and
machine-g unned them as they
neared the shore, and our P-40's

caught.
A British officer who could not
be quoted by name said a major
general was among the Russians
questioned. The officer said the
Russian explained he was merely
driving through the Tiergarten at
the time of the raid.
1t. Col. r. C. Irvine, deputy pro-
yost marshal of British troops in
Berlin, declined to confirm or deny
that any Red Army generals were
rounded up, saying only that some
senior officers" were questioned.
The British said Is civilians, de-
scribed as the Tiergarten's biggest
operators. were being held and
would be tried. All the others were
released after giving their names.

ed by a second lieutenant and Its
force had been hacked down to 212
men. Every other officer and man
was accounted for as having been
buried or evacuated wounded. There
were no stragglers.
Major Died in Action.
It's gallant Maj. Strickler, a heroic
leader in the close-quarter fighting,
was found on the front line of the
battalion, dead, a bullet through his
helmet.
The men had fought under ter
rible handicaps In jungle and bam-
boo wilderness so dense that only
high-angle fire weapons were effec-
tive. To win that battle we had to
exhaust some of the last infantry
mortar ammunition of my I Corps
The bamboo actually detected our
.30-caliber fire
At the climax of the battle of
Quinauan Point, when the enemy
was driven back to the sea, many
Jap troops took cover in a cave
along the water line. The cave had
been eaten out of the cliff by the
wash of waves. Now you must re-
member that these were the early
days of our war with Japan, and the
men in that cave were some of the
first Japs-if not the first-thus
pocketed.
They refused to surrender. When
this was reported to me 1t was hard
to believe. I ordered another proffer
of honorable surrender, but the
trapped Japs fired on troops who
brought the offer.
The old rules of war began to
undergo swift change in me.
What had at first seemed a barba-
rous thought in the back of my
mind now became less unsavory. ]
thought of Gen. U. S. Grants land
mine at Petersburg, and made up
my mind.
I arranged tor a small gunboat
which had remained in our waters
to move in from the sea and shell
the cave, while engineers crawled
toward it from the landward side
lowered electrically fused mines,
and blew the place to pieces. There
were no survivors. 1t. had at last
dawned on me, as it was to dawn on
so many commanders who followed
me in the Pacific War, that the Jap
usually prefers death to surrender
Our men, in that critical battle
which saw our whole position on
Bataan in jeopardy, preferred death
to defeat. In this fight my aide,
Johnny Pugh, found a dead Philip
pine Scout sergeant with his right
hand cut off at the wrist. His pistol
lay close to the left hand. In front of
the sergeant was dead Jap lieuten-
ant Beside him was his bloody
sword. The Scout with the severed
right hand had killed the Jap with
his left.
The backbone of the fighting on
the point between the Anyasan and
Salaiim Rivers-another 12-day bat
tle-was Col E. j. Lilly's 57th Regi-
ment of Scouts, freshly arrived
from Parker's II Corps.

the Japs back to the shoreline they
were stunned to find the first Jap
suicidists. hard to believe in
those days when most of us pre-
sumed that the Jap fighter was a
human being much like the rest
of us.
