Army Lays AequittaIs
OF Jap War Criminals
To Lack Of Witnesses
From Yesterdays Last Edition. J

(Front Yesterdays Last Edition.)
A War Department spokesman to-
day attributed recent acquittals of
five major japanese war criminals
in Toyko to the difficulty Gen.
Douglas Macarthur has in persuad-
ing former servicemen to volunteer
to go to Japan to testify as
witnesses.
American officers are reluctant
to impose the death penalty or
severe sentences soley on imfor-
Imation contained in affldavits," said
Col. D. M. Dunn, acting chief of the
War Crimes Branch, Civil Affairs
Division.
Col Dunn disclosed at a press
conference that in April Gen. Mac
Arthur had requested the appear
ance Of 90 witnesses from this coun-
TRY at the atrocity trials, but so far
only Is men had responded volun-
itarily.
Sufficient Evidence Lacking.
IF We can get live witnesses we
can get more convictions, Col.
Dunn said, in complaining that too
frequently Japanese war criminals
are being given sentences of only
two or four years imprisonment.
But for the lack Of sufficient evi-
Idence, these prisoners would have
received longer sentences-perhaps
life Imprisonment in some cases.
For this reason the Civil Affairs
Division is sending Sergt. Thomas
R. Cagnet, 81, Plaquemine, La. to
Shanghai, China, to testify in per-
son at a minor trial about con-
ditions in Mukden, Manchuria,
prison camp in connection with the
trial of a medical supervisor. Re-
leased after 40 months imprison-
ment from his capture on Cor
regidor on May 6, 1912. Sergt. Cagnet
has regained partial sight from
blindness caused by extreme mall
nutrition during his long imprison-
ment in Manchuria.
Will Leave Monday.
1.-THE idea that the Jap doctor
might somehow escape penalty
has bolstered my courage and de-
termination to go back and testify"
the sergeant explained.
Sergt. Cagnet will leave Wash
ington on Monday by air accom-
panied by his wife, She is the
former Sylvia Dehart, whom he
married last November at Radford
Va. while stationed temporarily at
Fort Belvoir.
Sergt. Cagnet said the medical
supervisor at Mukden frequently
caused all prisoners to strip in sub
zero weather outside their barracks
after hiking back from factories
where they worked. A strapping
190-pounder at the time of his i'm
prisonment, he weighed about 100
pounds when liberated August Z,
1945.
He also described daily beatings
of prisoners by camp guards and
his own experience of being given
the water cure" when he refused
to disclose how prisoners were able
to get alcohol.

India Postal Workers Defy
Orders 10 Return 10 Work
BY the A.socioied Press

BOMBAY, Aug. 3.-India's strike
plagued postal, telegraph and long
distance telephone communications
remained thoroughly crippled today,
as striking postal workers, who ap-
parently are the key to the work
stoppage, refused to abide by their
leaders back to-work orders.
Leaders of the All.India Postmen
and Lower Grade Staff Union called
the postal strikers to another meet
ing today, hopeful of inducing them
to accept the governments refusal
to pay salaries for the strike period
since July IL.
A telegraph strikers spokesman
said he expected his followers to
return soon after the postal workers
resume work and it was generally
believed the telephone strike would
end quickly thereafter.
Railway workers through their
union leaders have been publicly
threatening to strike late this month
unless their pay and working hours
are adjusted.
There is an epidemic of strikes
and strike threats in this city. Many
army lorry drivers are on strike and
employees of principal hotels have
served strike notices.

December 7, 1941," when the jap

prepared for Senate delivery.
Gen. Hull commands the Hawaiian
Department-the Army--he does not

not command the Army
Senator Hill spoke in favor OF
armed forces uniflcation, an issue
now admittedly dead for this session
of Congress.
| AS a member Of the Military
Affairs Committee and an ardent
advocate of unification, Senator Hill
said he decided to lay the case for
the legislation-which never reached
the Senate floor-before his col
leagues as result of an anti
unification speech delivered in the

Republican, of Connecticut, retired
admiral.
Senator Hill said that naval Of

Congress to act on the legislation
