FOR LOST BOY
(Continued from Page One)
. 270 miles northwest of San
Fruncibco.
Dickie, whose full name is
tlchard Merritt Turn Suden, had
been given permission by his
mnthor Ht 9 a. m. Thursday
morning to piny in his spacious
front yard.
When Mrs. Turn Suden, the
fnrmnr Snllv Marearet Merritt.
bay area socialite, went outside
at 9:30 the child was nowhere
to be seen. The distracted mother
ran to the highway, asked help
of a passing motorist and then
notified authorities.
Last night two huge bonfires
were lit, at Mrs. Turn Suden's
suggestion, in the hope that the
youngster would be attracted by
them if he were lost. The hunt
had extended over an area of 16
square miles.
Doa Found
Searchers were puzzled by the
actions of the boy's collie dog,
a constanV companion, who was
found at a jpot about a quarter
of a mile from the house Thurs
day afternoon. The dog refused
to move further ud the hill and
a few feet away, beside a log,
searchers found one of the boy's
mittens.
The doe was returned along
the same route yesterday, but
when he reached the same spot
he refused to go any further. .
Sheriff W, Dewey Johnson
said the dog's action may support
one theory that the child was
carried off by a mountain lion,
of which there are many, in this
area. . . . . '
It is also possible that the child
may have fallen down an aban
doned mine shaft, a cliff or into
a gully, the sheriff said. - . ,

were dependent for food on the
American supplies already-
the island, but in Japan - their
diet consisted of rice - and a
watery, unseasoned soup. - -They
had bread - only when they
weren't given ; rice. Of the
KroUD of 250 men which include
ed pepple and Wing. 50 died
from malnutrition and pneumon
ia during the first year.--
' We had a pretty rough time
of it the first year while we
were under navy control. Con
ditions improved a little bit
when the army took over," Wing
added. They .were completely
isolated and neither man re
ceived word from home during
internment. Their relatives first
heard from them in January,
1945.
Jap Cruelly ' '.":.
Two incidents of Japanese
cruelty to prisoners of war
which took place in their group
are receiving attention in con
sideration of the case against the
Japs In their treatment of pris
oners. One concerned an Amer
ican internee who was jailed and
died while in jail because he had
made a coat out of a blanket
when he was cold. The other
was of a prisoner who wasn't
able to work because he was ill
in the hospital. As a result, he
was kicked to death by the Japs.
Red Cross food parcels which
arrived at the camp were kept
by the Japs, but when the army
took over they occasionally gave
the prisoners one parcel for
every three men. . ... V.
. Cigaret Ration
They were given a cigaret ra
tion of two cigarets per day but
...there were frequent periods of
as long as 70 days when they got
none.
While in Japan they were Im
prisoned in four different camps
and forced to work on Japanese
military installations, leaving a
camp in Nagasaki six weeks be
fore the atomic bomb devastated
that area.
On August 15, the American
internees, after months of wait
ing and hoping, heard that the
war had ended in an allied vic
tory. i
"My biggest moment was
when they got Red Cross food
parcels containing K and C ra
tions to us after the war was
over. We heard the army didn't
like them, but after a rice diet
we really went for them," Wing
stated.
After the war's end the Ameri
cans set about regaining their
. health while they awaited trans
portation to the United States
where "we're catching up on all
me tilings we've missea,"

THIS is the point:
In our cxcitemciit-craving
modern existence we pay no
great attention to the simple
narratives of peaceful existence.
As long as the couple next door
remains loving and ORDINARY,
we pay no heed to them, but
when thev staee a spectacular
fight and break windows and
throw dishes and pull hair we
cot a 1 twittered ud about it.
It is just possible, you see,
that we have been hearing all
about the world's troubles and
little if anything of the CON
STRUCTIVE progress that is
probably going on all around us.
Maybe it's a BETTER world
than we think.

"The only difference I can see
between these men and those
corpses is that here they're still
breathing."
Not Eaten
All said they had not eaten in
two days. Four were brought in
on stretchers. A few wore hos
pitalized immediately and fed in
travenously. The rest, after a
light meal, filled out a question
naire on their treatment by the
French.- Then they were de-
loused, given blankets aim as

earlier batches totaling 1323.
