continue kneeling all day and all night because she was suspected of praying that the Americans would return. According fo the refugees’ story: The Japs arrived on Dee. 10. They occupied the whole island the same day. Everyone from 8 to 60 was put to work on trenches, pillboxes, airfields and general fortifications, or in the rice fields. The Japs paid laborers one yen a day at first but soon stopped wages altogether. Three meager bowls of rice was the daily food ration. The people were forbidden to touch cattle, corn or even eggs, all of which were reserved for Jap consumption. Guam merchants were forced out of business without compensation, their goods turned over to Jap merchants. When American planes first came over and destroyed Jap planes the people clapped their hands. The Japs arrested 20, accused them of spying and issued an order that all must bow their heads when American planes were overhead. He said he witnessed the torture to death of two natives as an example to others who looked when American planes were in the sky. then clubbed in head, neck and groin, dragged about and speared.
