The four Japanese slaughtered more than 50 of the women and children, Mrs. Abad told the 404 GERMAN TULELAKE German pris oners of war numbering 404 who helped bring the potato .- harvest here to a successful conclusion, were moved by motor convoy to Camp White Sunday. These men have been billeted in tents in a city park for the past several weeks. Another 500 tnen camped on the west side . of town will be moved out November 1, it is expected. ' All of these men will be re distributed soon to other agri cultural areas of California to -work in the olives, fruit, cotten and other crops. Local current reports indicate that war pris ; oners will be en route home by 'January 1. Credits Prisoners W. H.. Anderson, farm labor field assistant of employment service, credited prisoners of . war with being responsible for the early conclusion of the harvest which was completed ahead of an anticipated date.

VERRALL, C.S., of Now York City Member of the Board of Lectureship of Tha Mother Church, Tha First ', Church of Christ, Scientist, In Boston, Mais. Fremont School Auditorium 718 High Street MONDAY, OCTOBER 29 8:00 P. M. , THE PUBLIC IS CORDIALLY INVITED TO ATTEND Monday. October 29, 184S responsible for crimes committed by his command. Capt. Norman J. Sparnon, Melbourne, Australia, who pre ceded Mrs. Abad, identified translations of captured Japa nese documents which definitely showed that Yamashita com manded the 14th imperial army group at the time of the atroci ties. Guards escorted Yamashita to the defense table minutes before court opened in the heavily guarded high commissioner's residence, where officers, troops and Filipinos vied for the few seats available to the rjublic. The defense objected to admis sion of 59 new points in the prosecution s bin of particulars on the ground that it opened an entirely new theory of law. The bill charged that Yamashita "permitted" his troops to com mit atrocities. The objection was overruled. . , The defense then sought a two week postponement to adequate ly counter the prosecution's new charges. That was denied, but the court stipulated that the defense might renew its request for postponement after the prose cution rests. Appeal Apparent It was clear that the defense carefully was laying the ground work for an appeal either to President Truman or to the United States supreme court if Yamashita is convicted. It asked dismissal of all charges against Yamashita, who is the first raci- fic war criminal suspect to face trial, on the contention that the commission is without jurisdic tion and had no proper authority to hear the case. The chief prosecutor, Maj. Robert M. Kerr, Portland, Ore., in his opening statement said the case would "not be pleasant to hear" because it would pile horror on horror in relating how the Japanese ran bloodily over the PmliDDines. Kerr said the prosecution will attempt to prove that violations of the laws of war were so wide spread and commonplace that Yamashita must have known of them, or must have taken "affir mative action not to know" which would make him equally guilty.' Lt. Col. James G. Feldhaus of Howard, S. D., opened the after noon session of the trial's first day with another strong objec tion for the defense against the authority of the trial commis sion. The first afternoon witness was Glicera Andaya. Filipino ilea uross nurse, who told of be ing stabbed through the breast at the aid station orgy. "Dutch Treat" Advocated at UO EUGENE.
