JAPANESE BATRE B FORES FRE Rumor 100 Kill, 1,000 Homes Burned—Wires Down Tokyo, May 31 UP—Japanese resi- dents of ‘Southern Saghalien Island fought teday for their lives and their homes against fores, fires which were believed to have killed 300 persons and burned more than 3,006 houses. Dispatches to newspapers, acant in details, led to fears that there had been a major disaster. Communica- tions on the island were badly crip- pled. Railways were blocked, and telegraphs and telephones were down, and only meager reports were obtainable. A dispatch to the newapaper Asahi Shimbun, from Maokgthama, & village near Esutorl, said Maoka- hama had been wiped out and that there were 100 dead and 1,000 houses burned. The newspaper Nichi said 30 bodies had been recov- ered, A shift in the wind carried the fires away from Esutori and teward Maokahama. Survivors were -suffer- ing from hunger and exposure with their sole provisions scorched pota- toes from the fields or ‘burned over farms, “Disastrous ‘fires have- swept throughout the island,” the dispatch said. “The dkies are black with smoke obliterating the sun.” It added that the blaze was spreading from Esutori . toward Ohira, two mmiles to the south, where fighters were trying desperately to save & coal mine.
