Japanese have moved in artillery around the hospital & are firing at Corregidor. The return fire occasionally sends fragments into our area. Hope that Corregidor remember that we have a hospital in this area. The Japanese soldiers are still living in our headquarters. We are eating red rice twice daily. Nutritional edema showing up in many of the patients. No one leaves the area for fear of roving bands of soldiers. Now can get no news of any kind.
