Ready to OMIT
in North Luzon

MANILA, Aug. % - up -
Ten thousand japanese who fled
into the virtually UNEMPLOYED
mountains of northern Luzon
southeast Of Aparri were pre-
pairing today to surrender to the
US. 18th Infantry Division. 1t
was the 9th which drove them
out of the Cagayan Valley in
June.
Mai. Gen. Yuguchi, command
ing the 80th brigade Of the Jap
anese 103rd Infantry Division,
sent his adjutant, a captain
Sakao, to the Buckeye Divisions
headquarters Sunday to arrange
for capitulation as soon as per-
mission is given by the Japa-
nese commander for the Philip
pines, 1t. Gen. Tomoyuki YAM
ashita.
Yamashita, once famed as the
Tiger of Malaga" but now de-
rided by the doughboys as the
Badger of Baguio," notified his
subordinate general to cease
hostilities but failed to tell him
to surrender.
Yamashita himself has sent q
letter to the 32nd Division Conn.,
mander saying he was ready to
surrender but had as yet receiv-
ed no word from Imperial head
quarters directly authorizing
him to do so.
Yuguchi, who commands the
Japanese in Eastern Luzon, new
ertheless is moving his troops
into four areas designated by
Brig. Gen. Leo Kreber of Co.
lumbus, Ohio. Kreber is acting
for Mai. Gen. Robert S. Beight-
Ter, 37th Division Commander
who currently also is the Luzon
area commander.
Included in Yuguchi's motley
force scattered through the
mountains are combined Army
and Navy units numbering
about 5000 men, survivors OF
numerous Japanese ships sunk
off the Philippines last fall.
They are led by Naval Com
mander named Ninobe.
Meanwhile. two scheduled
surrenders of several scores OF
Japanese to the 38th Infantry
Division in the Sierra Madre
mountains dwindled to a sur
render of only Is men this aft
ernoon. The Japanese who show
ed up said they hadn't been able

ais in time for him to make the

Announce Sweeping
Dormifory Program
$4.ooo,ooo 10 De Spent
1t Tssehsrs' Colleges

LANSING, Aug. % - tR -
A 100000 dormitory building
program at the four State
Teachers Colleges was an
nounced today by DR.. Eugene B..
Elliott, State Superintendent of
Public Instruction.
Elliott said the program in
cluded:
Western Michigan College of
Education, Kalamazoo, $780,
600 for two dormitories to ac-
commodate 200 men and 400
women, plus alterations of other
buildings and additional kitchen
and dining room facilities.
Central Michigan College of
Education, Mt. Pleasant, $780,
600, for a 200-woman dormi-
tory, additions to the Union
building to provide for 100 per-
sons and additional kitchen and
dining facilities.
Michigan State Normal Col
lege. Ypsilanti, $1,370,000. for
two dormitories for ESQ men
and women, plus an addition to
Munson Hall and additional
kitchen and dining facilities.
Northern Michigan College Of
Education, Marquette, 100000
for a dormitory.
Elliott said the State would
contribute only $224,000 to the
program and the remainder
would come from the sale of
revenue bonds.
The Legislature provided
100000 for the Marquette
schools dormitory. Elliott said,
because it had no "nest egg"
from other dormitory revenues
to start construction, while the
other three institutions had. The
State Administrative Board ap-
proved spending $4,000 to ac-
quire land for the Mt. Pleasant
schools building.

Although the letter did not
mention what took place during

Lack of Bottles
May Cause Acute

Bottle boarding, with an eye to
the hot summer months will result
in an acute beer shortage this sum-
mer, a representative Of a local
brewing company told retail beer
distributors Monday night.
While there is beer enough for
everybody, he pointed out, there
aren't enough bottles to put it in,
and breweries can't make enough
beer to put up a supply for the
summer because the needed bot
ties are In Easements of hoarders.
1.-The problem" he said, "is to
get the boarded empty bottles stored
in homes of misguided persons who
think saving them will get beer
this summer.
"Hoarding bottles is what precip-
itated the threat Of beer rationing.
All beer brewed in excess Of the bot
ties to put it in viii be shipped
overseas. When the public wakes
up to the fact that they must re-
turn their empty bottles, the threat
of an acute beer shortage will dis
appear"
