Wainwright
 Rescued By
 ParatrooperS
(By Associated Press)

CHUNGKING- Ut. Gen. Jona-
 than M Wainwright, the tall hero
 of Corregidor who was rescued
 from a Japanese prison camp by
 humanitarian team of Amer
 ican parachutists and is due in Chungking shortly, may witness
 the formal surrender of the forces which held him prisoned for more than three years.
 Among the hundreds of Allied prisoners released by the sudden arrival of the airborne teams car rying relief supplies were Major Gen. Geo. M. Parker, Jr., of Port land, Ore, who served under Wainwright ill the final days of the battle of the Philippines and A. w. L Tjarda van Starkenborgh Stachouwer, Governor-Feneral of The Netherlands East Indies.
 Also, with Wainwright in Man authority, were It. Gen Arthur Percival, British Commander at Singapore when that stronghold was captured by the Japanese in. 1942, and Sir Shenton Thomas, Governor of Singapore.
 Dropping of the humanitarian teams brought a protest from the Japanese government. The Japan csc informed Gen. Macarthur that the action endangered the smooth cessation of hostilities and asked him to see that no more such "incidents' occurred
 Wainwright, 61-year old leader of the epic American and Filipino resistance at Corregidor after the fall of the Philippines, was a cap tive for three years and three months.
 He was found in prisoner of war camp at Hsian, 100 miles of Mukden in Manchur- ia, by one of a number of six-man Humanitarian teams who para chuted into the areas of several prisoner of war camps in the China theater Aug. 16.
 The men who reached Vain wright's camp had flown HOO miles from Skiing (Sian) in Shen- si Providence Early on Aug 16, they knew they were risking death to take food, medical aid and en- to the internees, since they had no idea of what the reaction of the Japanese would be. The Japanese had been inform ed ahead of time by leaflets of the coming of the parachutists.
