AUGUSTA, Ga.—Edward Yar borough, fprmer Augustan, and his wife, have just returned to the United States after three years of internment in the Philippines. Until January 3, 1942, Mr. Yar- b- cugh was acting manager of the office of the International Busi ness Machine Company in Manila. Working with him was an office staff of thirty-four people—thirty- three Filipinos and one Chinese— with whose help he was able to keep the office operating for al most a year after he was interned. In January, 1942, Mr. and’ Mrs. Yarborough were interned at Santa Tomas University and at the time of their internment were sepa rated and were not reunited until almost eight . ~nths later. After eighteen months at Santo Tomas, Mr. and Mrs. Yarborough were transferred to another internment camp. For the more than two thousand internees of this camp, the period of internment was a battle of nerves and hunger, Mr. Yarbor ough revealed. Those civilians who were belligerent or who ridiculed the Japanese were physically harmed, but always there were the threats and the exasperating rules and regulations. Husbands and wives were not allowed near each other because of the “demoralizing effect on the Japanese guards.” There were orders to keep eyes downcast when American planes appeared in the sky over Manila. And always there was hunger. The greatest diet deficiency was . Established 1869 CENTRAL GARDEN FLORIST PHONE 3-4464 WALTON WAY AT HEARD Augusta, Georgia Best Wishes Feeders and Growers Exchange.

Georgia in proteins, Mr. Yarborough stat ed, so the internees ate anything that would supply them. Those who were fortunate enough to h ve money and native friends, could, 'or exorbitant prices (corn ed beef at $25 a can) buy food to supplement their vermin infested rice diet. Four hospital ships we .eeded to return the unfor tunates from this camp. For ma y days before the Amer ican troops arrived, the forests surrounding the camp were bomb ed to clear the way for liberation. Evidence of American occupation rumbled through days and nights, and the Japanese made prepara tions to evacuate the camp. Early on the morning if February 23, this year, Mrs. Yarborough was working in the compound when she heard planes overhead. Al though there were orders that no one was to “look up”, each inter nee had his own camouflage for seeing what was going on in the air. Mrs. Yarborough sought her hidden observation post and saw tiny black objects dropping from the planes above. At first she thought the camp was being bomb ed, but when parachutes opened she knew this was the day for which thousands of people had waited three years. These were American paratroopers. That was at 7 a. m., and it was learned that the Japanese had planned to burn tfca barracks at 9 a. m. The next day the internees were moved to Bilibid, still two miles behind the Japanese lines, but time passed and the Yarboroughs found themselves on a ship head ed for home. Born in Augusta, Mr. Yarbor ough is the son of Mrs. Henry Yar borough, of Denver. His mother was before her masriage, Miss Kate Gasquet, of Columbia, S. C.
