The five of us attended a religious meeting in Manila to hear some instructions given to us by some of the leaders of the religious section of the Japanese army. Our liberties have been curtailed again, and visiting is prohibited during the week. We have to make out reports on our denomination, churches, pastors, missionaries, and all meetings and activities. Much red tape, but I guess it is necessary. Were told that if the reports were not in regularly our privilege of having services would be canceled. Much talk of all the Protestant Churches uniting. Must give our opinion.
