An official communique said the re-occupation was proceeding according to plan without opposi tion. The surrendering Japanese were disarmed and permitted to withdraw across the causeway from Singapore island to the Malayan mainland. Looting Halted British troops guarding the causeway found a number of Japanese attempting to carry off loot from the city. They were searched on the spot and stripped of all their booty. One Japanese officer protested the forced removal of his com mand from Singapore to the northern side of the causeway, because it meant living in native huts instead of the city's swank mansions. He was "overruled" in short order. Among the 85,000 surrender ing Japanese were 85 generals and an undetermined number of admirals. British military authorities re leased a large number of British, American and allied prisoners of war held in Singapore.

The bears have been damaging oars and stealing food since the park opened but this is the first report of injury to a park visitor. The victim, Mrs. Glen Sanders, was bitten on the left hand and knocked to the ground when she attempted to frighten the animal away from the lunch spread on a table in the park rim camp ground. She was given first aid by another camp visitor and Thomas J. Parker, assistant park superintendent. Mrs. Sand ers, with her husband, private in the air corps, and their two small children were en route to Gelger Field, Spokane, Wash., where the serviceman is stationed. They were advised by Parker to con sult a physician and were to have stopped in Bend. The problem of protecting both the bears and camp visitors is one of considerable concern to park service staff members, it is stated, and visitors are ad vised not to feed the animals. Mrs. Sanders had not been feed ing the animal which attacked her, but found the bear raiding the picnic table when she return ed from the family car. Pvt. Sanders had gone for water at the time of the incident. Livestock Portland. Ore., Sept. (UP Livestock; Cattle 150. calves 35. Active following Wednesday's slow close. Mostlv stendy.
