Korean’s massacre story is viewed with reserve
CHUNGKING, China (AP) – American and British authorities viewed with reserve today the story of a Korean deserter from the Japanese Army who said he had witnessed the massacre of 154 American and British prisoners of war on Shikoku Island.
The Korean, who did not want his name divulged for fear of reprisals to his family, said that after the alleged massacre he was sent to China and surrendered early this year.
Allied authorities wondered why the Japanese would permit a Korean witness to such a massacre to be transferred to China where he might surrender or be captured.

Gracie Allen Reporting
By Gracie Allen
Well, as if westbound traffic hasn’t been heavy enough through in this country, a big insurance company now advises girls to head west if they want to get married. When this gets around, there’ll probably be a movement toward the Pacific Coast that will make the California gold rush of ’49 look like a conga line.
And a word of warning to you Western men. Lack of train space isn’t going to stop those man-hunting women. They’ll organize covered-wagon trains if necessary.
Only this time, instead of being pursued by the Indians, the womenfolk are liable to turn the tables and chase some of those handsome young Indian bucks right back onto the reservation. Yes, indeed, times have certainly changed.
