Koje Camp Uprisings
Far From Unique in
History of Warfare
Washington (U.PJ The
Koje Island prison camp riots
are apparently the most violent
in which Drisoners of this coun
try ever have been involved, al
though they are far from unique
In the history of warfare.
During World War II, 25 Nazi
naval officers and submarine
technicians broke out of their
compound at Papago, Ariz., on
Christmas Eve, 1944. All later
were recaptured.
Tulelake Incident Told
In 1943 there was an unsuc
cessful Japanese uprising at
Tulelake, Calif. There also was
Second Cover Spray
For Pears, Apples
Due by June 10
The second cover spray for
control of codling moth on pears
and apples should be completed
on June 10, according to L. G.
G e n t n e r . entomologist from
Southern Oregon Branch Exper
iment station, and C. B. Cordy,
county extension agent for horticulture.
Recommended application for
pears is 1V4 pounds of 50 per
cent DDT for 100 gallons. If less
than 500 gallons an acre is used,
the DDT should be increased un
til at least 7 pounds an acre is
applied. In speed sprayers use 7
pounds an acre, the authorities
added.
Apple Spray
Sprayers on apples should use
2V5 pounds of 50 per cent DDT
in 100 gallons being sure that at
least 12 pounds an acre is used.
In speed sprayers use 12 pounds
an acre. In home orchards use
one-half pound in 5 gallons and
use 5 gallons for each mature
' tree.
While this spray Is timed for
control of codling moth, the men
pointed out that the addition of
a material for mite control
would also be desirable. There
are two alternative programs
which could be followed, they
explained, "We prefer to add 1
pint of 20 per cent or one-half
pint of 40 per cent TEPP an acre
in this spray, to be followed by
a spray of aramite when the
mites become numerous enough
to cause a small amount of leaf
damage on the tree. That would
probably be in the late June and
should control the mites until
the next codling moth - spray.
TEPP should be handled with
caution and should be applied
during fast drying conditions to
prevent fruit injury."
Tell Alternative
Gentner and Cordy noted that
the alternative would be to add
aramite to this spray and follow
it again at a later date with an
other aramite spray. "It is
doubtful," they said, "if an ara
mite spray now would hold until
the next codling moth spray, as
that will not be called for until
late July."
Aramite should be used at the
rate of Hi pounds to 100 gal
lons, they said, or in speed
sprayers 8 pounds should be
used for an acre. The use of ara
mite this early in the season may
result In leaf damage, especially
onjou, it was pointed out. Liquid
spreader depositors apparently
increase this damage to a certain
extent, they concluded, so where
aramite is used it would be pref
erable to use Z-l spreader,
Mrs. Frisbie's
Retirement Told
Mrs. Blanche Frisbie, a county
health nurse in Jackson county
for the past 20 years, retired
Monday, according to Dr. A. Erin
Mcrkcl, county health officer.
Mrs. Frisbie was supervising
nurse of the department at the
time of her retirement, a position
she had held for about eight
year.
Mrs. Frisbie was considered
outstanding as a supervising
health nurse, not only by those in
this unit, but by health officers
of the state. Dr. Mcrkel said. Her
retirement from the unit was re
ceived with reRret by the county
health department workers, the
doctor added.
In private life, the retiring
nurse is Mrs. Ray Frisbie. and she
lives with her husband at 2447
Lyman avenue. Several out-of-county
nurses now are being con
sidered to replace her.
a riot of Italian POW'a at Ft.
Lawton, Okla.
An Army spokesman said
big problem in handling Ger
man POWs was prevention of
political atrocities. Members of
Hitler's Gestapo and Nazi party
were the most incorrigible.
For offenses committed in U.
S. prisons, 14 Germans were ex
ecuted, one was sentenced to be
executed but the sentence was
commuted ts 20 years impris
onment. 12 Murders Recorded
In addition, available records
for the 379,000 Germans impris
oned in this country during
World War II shows 12 murders,
two forced suicides by Nazi me
thods, and 43 other suicides.
A spokesman said that was
not bad considering the fact that
the first 300.000 were brought
over so rapidly there was no
time for screening.
After screening and segrega
tion of the Gestapo and Nazi
party members from the non
Nazis, there was very little
trouble, he said.
There also were 51,500 Ital
ian and 5,400 Japanese prison
ers brought to the U. S. during
World War II.
By comparison, figures cur
rently available for the last
three and a half months alone,
show this record for Koje:
Feb. 18 One American sol
dier killed and one wounded
and 69 North Korean civilians
internees killed and 142 wound
ed as rioting broke out in the
compound,
March 13 One American
officer Injured, 12 Communists
killed and 26 wounded as riot
flared in troop compound.
April 10 One American
officer wounded, four Korean
guards and three Communist
prisoners killed, 57 Communists
wounded and six Korean guards
wounded.
May 28 Fourth riot broken
up as U. S. and British troops
rushed into the compound, fir
ing rifles into the air and quell
ing the rock-throwing, rebelli
ous prisoners with tear gas.
Abiding by Convention
An Army spokesman said Un
ited Nations forces are abiding
fully by the Geneva Convention
in the treatment of war prison
ers. One regulation provides
that each prisoner must get at
least 1,200 calorics of food a
day.
Asked how the Koje prisoners
were fqd, he said details would
have to come from the Far East.
But general policy has been to
provide the food to each com
pound's kitchen where it is pre
pared in the compound's kit
chen by the prisoners and dis
tributed by the prisoners.
