Monday.—There Is evi dence that Japanese soldiers ate the flesh from the bodies of American i and Australian dead and that of their fallen troops, the official Aus • tralian report on Japanese atroci ties disclosed today. The Australian report, released in London by Foreign Minister H. V. Evatt and prepared by Sir William Webb, the Australian chief justice of Queensland for the United Na tions War Crimes Commission, said it was apparent that the Japanese : forces practiced cannibalism in New !

"In many cases the flesh j was removed and, in a few cases, it was found in Japanese mess kits ; —some over fires. Where the, flesh was found in mess kits the Japanese ; were short of food and. in many cases .on the point of starvation, if not starving." ■ One enemy soldier admitted that when they ran short of rations they devoured their own kind, the re port said. ■ Another who was sent to collect 1 enemy dead admitted that on Jan uary 10, 1943. at Buna, he ate hu man flesh for the first time and said it tasted "comparatively good." "On the evidence of numerous eye witnesses. including an Australian major general, an American briga -1 dior general, an Australian briga j dier general, an American colonel j and several other responsible offic ers.
