more German prisoners from France
to this country to help alleviate the
manpower shortage.
This was revealed last night by
Maj. Gen. Archer L. Lerch, Army
provost marshal, who also told re-
porters that during 1914 prisoners
of war had performed work worth
$102, 100000. OF this, labor valued
at $4,000, 900 was done for private
contractors who paid the Treasury
and the remainder on Army and
Navy installations.
Need of the Army for German
prison labor in France on recon-
struction projects. will determine
whether more of the prisoners are
brought here, Gen. Lerch said. At
present, he revealed, there are 305.-
742 German, 50,587 Italian and 1880
Japanese prisoners of war in the
United States.
Private contractors pay the Treas
ury prevailing wages for prisoner
of war labor. OF this amount, the
prisoners themselves receive 80 cents
per day. Total man-days worked by
prisoners last year was 29,750,992.
Gen. Lerch revealed that there
had been 1901 escapes from prison
camps in the United States, but

It might point out that none of

ever, If they were in fact signed by

Commenting on an apparent
$1,000 discrepancy between gross
proceeds of $168,000 from Maspeth,

$163 900, Goldberg asserted:
There is no such shortage, as

strapped to their cots and then
lowered into the water by ropes.
Three or four sound men were de-
tailed to swim around each cot until
the wounded were picked up. Every
one Of the wounded was rescued, he
said.
All of the members Of the sur
vlving crew had to jump from the
ship into the water as the fire was
so intense that destroyers could not
come alongside to take them of di-
rectly according to Capt. Young.
But no man who finally got into the
water was lost, he said
During the whole action the main
naval force kept right on going to
its ultimate destination to effect
landings on the Philippine shores,
the rescue ships stopping only long
enough to pick up the survivors and
then joining the main force. The
rescue operations were simplified to
some extent due to the fact that
the carrier was hit in daylight.

AS the fire swept the flight deck,

five were baby flat-tops"-and to

Before the little carrier went to
the bottom, she had established an
enviable record against the foe.
Since going into service last June,
the carrier had supported three in

and had chalked up an impressive
list of enemy losses.
To her credit was heavy cruiser

cruisers and four destroyers dam
