Ten out of every 12 allied prisoners of war died of wounds, exposure and disease In the stinking hold of a Japanese hellship after the Japs denied them aid. PM 1c Lorene Stamp of Detroit told war crimes investigators Monday.

The Michigan survivor of the USS Houston charged that a doctor among the prisoners signed death certificates for 1,001 of slightly more than 1,200 prisoners who boarded the prison ship for the 20-day journey from Formosa to Japan.

One eyewitness said he saw two Japanese soldiers running for a tram when the explosion occurred. Shanghai still is under control of armed Japanese guards pending formal signing of the city's surrender. Accompanying General Stratemeyer were Maj. Gen. Douglas Weart, new commander of the Shanghai army base, and Chien Ta-Chun, Shanghai's new mayor.

They were enroute from an airport at the time, following their arrival from Chungking in a Flying Fortress piloted by Stratemeyer.
