Eiepats" Cond Gripe Over Filthy Living litidns In Land Of Rising Sun ' Br DUANE HENNESSY XJRAGA, Japan, Dec. 10 VP) tn the stench-ridden halls of the filthy barracks in which Jap anese civilians returning from the United States are housed, one of those who renounced his American citizenship hurried over and said: "This place Is terrible! Why can't tho American army disin fect these buildings? Why didn't they do It before we arrived?" , "It's tough, brother, but the American army has nothing to do with this place. You are un der the Japanese government now," I told him. "They are running this place. These are the buildings they picked for you." He said his name was Robert Tsuida, that he was born In Hawaii, had been a cook in Chicago, and had worked in Santa Ana, Calif. "This It Terrible" "We never thought we were coming back to anything as bad as this," he complained. "This Is terrible!" The "welcome" in Japan for the repatriates who asked to be relieved of their American citizenship is indeed a harsh revelation. Once they leave their American ship, they are completely under the care of the Japanese government. Uraga Caml, at the mouth of Tokyo bay, is even off limits for allied military personnel. Civilians trudged for a mile up a muddy, rutted road to reach the camp a half-dozen weather beaten, unpainted barracks. Windows were broken, letting a chill wind whip through the bar ren rooms. Rotting and untended since the Japanese army moved out, the buildings had not been cleaned for months. Halls were littered with old tin cans, ashes dumped from charcoal burners, and cardboard boxes of refuse and junk. No Beds There were no beds, just worn, woven straw sleeping mats. Each man was issued four dirty blankets, presumably salvaged from the Japanese army. "At least, they could have cleaned the blankets," Tsuida said. "They even smell bad. Living here is miserable!" "Not like Japanese relocation centers in the States?" he was asked. "There's no comparison. I sure wish I had an. American meal right now, but I guess it will be a long time before I get that kind of food again." He was told the American army is not feeding the Japanese people, and that henceforth he would be on the standard Jap- Former KF Girls Friendly Rivals In Queen Contest "Friendly enemies" Crescent City.

Dr. Lawrence Noall, ortho pedist affiliated with the Shrine hospital in Portland, examined 60 children the two days he was here. He recommended built-up shoes in some cases and will send back reports to family phy sicians who will supervise exer cises and care 01 patients be tween clinics. - Dr. Claude Kampner, speech specialist with the state crippled children service, was here one day and examined 17 children, Mrs. E.

Three children were brought over from Lakeview to attend the clinic and one from Medford. One was broueht over from Al- turas, Calif., for consultation service.

At least 300 of the repatriates were waiting in the mess hall, a place of unmopped floors, with pools of water here and there on the uneven cement. Each per son was served one saucer of rice a plate the size of an American coffee saucer and one apricot, shriveled to the size of a walnut. Then they all returned to their quarters, shivering. There was no heat anywhere in the camp. That's what they came back to, from America. 8 For Your 1 Christmas yW I I Portrait f 1 A gracious Christmas gift '"j TP. $ S that only you can give. fajj ; jjj 1 Pictures taken on or be- ' "'" mm t'' . f I fore Dec 16th will be f ready in 8 days for de- r livery.

All through the campaign, much was made over the fact that the girls both came from Klamath Falls and are now liv ing across the street from one another. It was the target of many jokes and made for close contesting. Alice Tosio, a life time resident of Crescent City, was the winner.
