Prisoners confined in the prison itself and not taken to the torture chambers, however, received gener ally better treatment than in other war prisons.

Mi-J Value of Manila Slight, Japs Say After Fall By Associated Press Dismissing the military worth of Manila as "of almost no value," a Tokyo broadcast today said "our force is about to take definite bleeding tactics against the enemy." The radio said Japanese forces on Luzon had "completed the es tablishment of lines for our main forces in three districts, namely, in the mountainous area northeast of Lingayen Gulf, the vicinity of Clark Field, and in the high land area east of Manila. 'The coming of the enemy to Manila is exactly what our side waited for, and our bleeding tactics. which are our aim, will now enter the positive stage." A Domei agency broadcast described American losses in the drive on Manila as "unprecedented in the world's war annals." "There is no question," Domei said.

Feb. 6 t.

Some 2.200 American planes staged one of the greatest mass raids on Germany today, attacking Leipzig, Magde burg and Chemnitz, the latter less than 30 miles from the Czecho-Slo vale border. More than 1,300 Flying Fortresses and Liberators flew in the 250-mile long sky train which broke into three sections. Possible Haven Blasted Leipzig, 5 miles south and west of Berlin, is a possible haven for Nazis fleeing Berlin. Industrial Chemnitz is 40 miles farther south east. Magdeburg is 70 miles west and south of Berlin.

Several other towns in central Germany also apparently were hit. A preliminary announcement said the targets were industries and communications. About 850 Mustangs and Thunderbolts flew escort. The raid on Chemnitz, 35 mile from Dresden, represented a round-trip flight of 1,300 miles.

Bridge Blown Up The German High Command communique declared the Nazis had blown up a central Oder bridge near Furstenberg, 14 miles south of Frankfurt.

The communique declared the So viets had broken into the center of by-passed and surrounded Poz-nan in Poland, where perhaps 20,000 Nazi troops were holding out. Zhukov's right wing was striking northward toward Stettin, but was maintaining radio silence on Its progress. This right flank was one of his most important areas of operation, however, and Moscow dispatches said the tank spearheads might already be relatively close to Stettin and behind many German-held cities. The Russians also were shelling Lebus, midway between Frankfurt and Kustrin, and Furstenberg particularly heavily. The German communique said the German engineer who blew up the Furstenberg bridge was killed in the act.

Crossen, farther up the Oder, also was under bombardment. Weather Stays Warm Weather still comparatively warm hampered Zhukov's communications, but all night Russian vehicles moved up in the mud and slush. German planes repeatedly hit at Zhukov's transports, and numerous air battles swirled over Germany and Poland. Against this background of continuing victories, the Moscow radio declared in effect this morning that Nazi Germany is being set up for the kill. "The Red Army is stepping up its blows," this broadcast said, "Decisive blows are awaiting Hitler's Germany from the west, as well." Commons Passes Fair Wage Standards Bill LONDON, Feb.

He is Edwin Rose, 65, of Toronto, Canada, who said he had "heard all the shooting and knew the Americans had arrived," but thought they were there to stay so he simply turned over in his prison bunk and went back to sleep again. Rose, who was a purser on a ship plying the Singapore to Hong Kong run, and was caught at Manila when the war broke out, declared he awakened the morning following the Rangers dramatic midnight rescue tc find "Cabanatuan all my own."
