Then loose earth was pulled down from the les of the hollow to cover the mu- ted bodies.” ~\ In answering inquiries at the Jap- anese War Office, Lieutenant Colonel Hata, told the ‘Associated Press cor- respondent that the number of Jap- anese troops employed inthe Chien- tao affair was 5,000--not 15,000. Vil- lages had been burned, he said, but only in ¢ases where the majority of inhabitants ‘were known to be in lea- gue ater the outlaws. — Referring to the charge that. an or- ganized attempt was made “to wipe out the whole Christian community,” Colonel Hata said that it was possible that a majority of those who had been execnted were Christians ‘but they told the people that tho officer said: were pag punished for their religion but \for banditry and rebellion. No charge was made against the mission- aries. ! Colonel Hata, while admitting that arsh measures had been adopted, said bad conditions .had existed in that district for a long time owing:to the: unchecked activities of Chinese bandits, Korean outlaws and Russian Bolsheviki. He said he was confident had not been -guilty of the birbarities with which they had been charged. 7 GARLAND MILLIONS PILE UP INTEREST terest while Charles Garland still de- clineg_to accept it and seeks a way to live without money.
