Fine, cold wind.
Meijima in Camp.
With Steve pm.
Black-out.
Final assault on Hall floor. ((Barbara Anslow explains: The flooring in the Married quarters and American quarters, a few others, and the prewar Prison Officers' club, had parquet wooden floors. When internees prised them up they burned merrily, being used to cook rice flour concoctions etc in their rooms. Alas for those living in the Indian Quarters, for they had stone floors. We Redwoods burned all the parquet in our room, but the tarry base beneath the parquet was very uncomfortable to bare feet.
One night the entire parquet on the large communal hall disappeared. From Mr Jones' diary today, he was obviously part of group who removed the flooring.))
