JAPANESE DIET COMPLETES WORK SAN FRANCISCO, March 25.— (/P)—The reconvened session of the Japanese diet was reported by Radio Tokyo Sunday to have wound up its one week of work and to have scheduled closing ceremonies for Monday. Premier Kuniaki Koiso appeared before the House of Peers and “clarified the resolute attitude of the government to carry out force ful measures without delay.” This came on the heels of the premier’s order for formation of a people’s volunteer army in which the en tire populace will be enlisted in anti-invasion and other war work. Tokyo said the diet during the week ‘ carried on serious debate with regard to taking the indis pensable steps toward strengthen ing the domestic front for the de cisive battle in view of the new phase of the war created by the fall of Iwo Jima.” The Japanese radio also reported that the entire cabinet met wi> Koiso Sunday in special session to talk over “current problems.” __v RADIO fWMFD Wilmragtoa 1400 ICC MONDAY.

THIRD ARMY BRIDGEHEAD, March 25. —(JP)— supply trucks, jeeps, tanks and imbulances rolling forward through newly conquered German terri tory toward this new outpost of American occupation pass a 100 mile-long panorama of war’s af termath and German reactions to ward defeat. One of the most striking fea tures is the number of prisoners moving rearward. The jeep in which Pvt. Paul Poisson of Flint, Mich., and this correspondent traveled toward the front passed 1,000 of Hitler’s soldiers standing dejectedly in an open field—with out barbed wire—quietly awaiting the next move to the rear. From there on to the bridgehead, it almost seemed as through there were more German soldiers than Americans on the road winding through picturesque mountains, valleys and streams. I counted more than 100 trucks, each carry ing 60 prisoners, in a few hours. German civilians watched them pass begrimed, dust covered, close packed in open trucks. In every village, women and children were out trying to catch a glimpse of a remembered face, and tossing cigarets, fruit, cookies and ether small gifts toward each truckload. In towns relatively untouched by bombing or artillery, the phe nomenally mild spring weather heightened the impression the war was over and peace really was here. The dominant expression on civilian faces in such towns was relaxation and relief. There were other places, how ever, where the war was still too recent, traces still too gruesomely evident, for relaxation of the long strain. Roads cluttered with the wreckage of German transport, the torn carcasses of horses, dead German soldiers in fields and ditches told the story of the whirl wind of wrath that passed. But in many peaceful fields far ther on, spring plowing was in progress. At many intersections along the route, elderly men with white armbands—civilian police appoint ed by the military government — were helping American MP's di rect traffic. Old women and children dominat ed the German scene everywhere. 15,000Believed Murdered In ConcentrationStockade By LOUIS P. LOCHNER NATZWEILER, Alsace, France, March 25.—(A*)—Until France's lib eration by the Allies Heinrich Himmler’s Gestapo added Twen tieth Century efficiency to medie val torture methods at the Stru thof concentration camp atop a Vosges mountain peak just above this village, French officials said today. Statistics found by the French when they overtook Struthof show ed 19.103 persons of various na tionalities were domiciled in 15 barracks on August 20, 1944, Their compound was surrounded by elec trically charged barbed wire so that only one person, a Russian, ever escaped. Dr. Alain Dubourg, a French sanitation officer now in charge of the health of the present in mates, consisting chiefly of French collaborationists, estimated that from October, 1941 some 15,000 persons had been cremated. French officials give this ac count: Russian and Poles were hanged from two gallows within sight of all inmates. Inmates of other na tionalities if condemned to death were either gassed or shot through the neck. Bodies were hauled to the ground floor, in the center of which was the cremation oven. The Gestapo did a flourishing business with ashes—selling them in two types of urns to relatives. Earthern urns were cheaper than metal urns. In another section of the barracks was the lethal chamber. Condemn ed victims were placed in there 32 at one execution. The Gestapo offered premiums to the young SS men who did the killing. For each they received six extra cigarets, one pint of schapps and 60 grams of sausage. After killing 10 they were given a two day furlough. The torture chamber resembled those of the Spanish Inquisition, except the modern tile bathtub in one corner which enabled the Ges tapo to throw a tortured person FLYNN MEETS ITALIAN ROME, March 25.—{&)—Edward J. Flynn, personal representative of President Roosevelt, conferred yesterday with Italian Foreign Minister Alcide deGasperi. into icy water until he revived. Dubourg said cancer was giver, as the cause of death “in hun dreds of cases.” The biggest execution day ap pears to have been September 2, 1944. That night 392 bodies were cremated. RYUKYU INVASION FEARED BY TOKYO SAN FRANCISCO, March 25.— yp)_Radio Tokyo predicted Sun day that American forces “will shortly try to land” in the Ryukyu Islands, between the Japanese homeland and Formosa. The broadcast, beamed to Ger many and recorded by the FCC, specifically named Okinawa as a possible landing point. It boasted that landing forces would “indeed experience the ferocity of the for ces manning our inner defense lines.” Tokyo added that a Ryu kyu invasion would be met by Japanese air forces based in China, Formosa and on Kyushu island, southernmost of the main Japanese chain. Tokyo asserted that “our air force units stationed on Kyushu and Formosa have maintained their unshatterable fighting strength.” The U. S. Pacific Fleet officially announced Saturday that American warships shelled Ryukyu coast lines while carrier planes blasted the islands last Friday and Sat urday, Japanese time. Philippine based bombers have been hitting Formosa army and navy air bases daily for many weeks. -V Benedictine Priest Dies After Working 40 Years On Christian Dictionary LONDON, March 25. — (/P) — For more than 40 years the Rev. Henri le Clercq, a Benedictine priest, pored over ancient manu scripts in the British museum reading room compiling a diction ary of Christian archeology. Once he -hold friends: “They say I will never live to write the end, but I reply ‘I have a contract with the Bon Dieu to let me wrj,te finish to volume Z.’ ” The French scholar, 76, died Friday, shortly after his publish ers in Paris had acknowledged receipt of the last pages of the monumental work. Father le Clercq’s efforts had been recognized by the French Legion of Honor and the British Academy. -V Canadian Corvette Sunk With One Dead, Six Lost OTTAWA, March 25. — (/Pi — The Canadian corvette Trentonian has been torpedoed and sunk with one officer killed and six ratings listed as missing, Navy Minister Angus Macdonald announced to night.
