Americans Reduce
Last Jap Pocket
In Manila
f MacArthur’s Headquarters, ,, , • ,
—American troops have compressed . , fought into SaarD
the enemy pocket in Southern Ma- d closecl UP to the Saar river
nlla to less than one-third of a
square mile and the trapped Japa-
J*»*ae are acting “with the greatest
...savagery” in their treatment of ci-
. ylllans and private property, Gen.
Douglas MacArthur announced.
I American heavy - artillery was
pounding the last center of Japa-
nese resistance inside the walls of
the Intramuros as the battle of
^.Jdanila entered its 18th day.
MacArthur announced that the
- fighting which raged around intra-
muros and grounds of the Univer-
sity of the Philippines was of the
“bitterest.”
The enemy's last pocket in Ma-
fiila, a city of 14 square miles, has
been reduced to an area of approx-
imately 1200 bv 800 yards—or less
■ i. than a third of a square mile.
M “A survey of Manila shows that
. practically all private possessions
> of any value were thoroughly loot-
ed during the period of enemy occu-
pation and ’apparently shipped to
Japan,” MacArthur said.
I. Front dispatches reported that
approximately one-fifth of the
"Pearl of the Orient,” included its
rich business and commercial cen-
ter, had ueen destroyed In the
fierce fighting or by Japanese de-
molitions.
Testifying to the savage fighting
in Manila, MacArthur disclosed
that Japanese casualties on Luzon
c for the week ending Monday were
24,000, raising the enemy’s total for
the six-week Luzon campaign to
more than 92,000. United States
casualties increased 3246 during the
’*^ame period, running totals for the
jpkampaign to 2676 killed. 245 miss-
ing and 10,008 wounded—a total of
ISAM.
The newest figures brought to
223.359 the total Japanese casual-
ties since the Philippine campaign
started with the invasion of Leyte
last October 20 and American loss-
es 34,146.’

A 60-year-old German who has

The order was one of the most
drastic decrees ever issued by the
Germans in their struggle. It w*s
issued, BerUn said, on orders from
Adolf Hitler and with the agree
ment of Henrich Himmler.
The German radio gave this as
the text of the decree:
“The hard struggle for the ex-
istence of the Reich demands of
every German fighting determi-
nation and devotion to the utmost.
“Whoever tries to evade his
duties towards the community, es-
pecially if he does lt from cow-
ardice or selfishness, must imme-
diately be taken to task with
necessary ruthlessness so that no
damage should arise to the Reich
from failure of an individual.
