By As Told to Francis’ McCarthy United Press Staff Correspondent SANTO TOMAS, Philippines, Feb, 23.—Soon after the start of my second year of internment, a note I smuggled out of camp to

Japanese. I was called -before the commandant. . They tried to find out the names of everyone outside I was acquainted with, but I told them next to nothing. Finally I

lost my temper, and gave the commander an incautious “So what?” ; o 2 2

SO WHAT—so I wound up in

the camp's “prison,” which in those days was reserved primarily for the husbands of women who | became pregnant—a capital offense in the eyes of the Japanese.

I CAME DOWN with amoebic dysentery on Feb. 18, and. my diary reports that “I guess I got it from eating raw tomatoes.” Gosh; I got hungry in those days. I spent a week in the camp hospital taking .shots. On March 2 I decided to take a review course of the shorthand 9’ .learned in high" school Pasco, Wash, I also decided to wash and iron only once a week to conserve strength and reduce hunger. New rumors of repatriation came on March 9, but I felt too miserable to pay too much attention to them. I still had sore arms and hips from the dysentery shots. s on ” ON MARCH 26 I had my first camp watermelon, bought for a peso (50 cents). It was small and tasteless. A sharp shortage of meat sold in the camp market was noted on April 6, and rumor had it that 60,000 new Japanese were in Manila. I started working in the camp

June 1—I made my first camp dress—all by hand—from a piece of seersucker a friend brought in.
