RADIO PROGRAM No. 62 - What Gratitude Can Do

James C . Brown

On this program James C . Brown of Hong Kong, China, told of his own experience, as follows:

I was living in Hong Kong when the Pacific War broke out, and I was an electrical engineer in the Public Works Department. So I was one of about two thousand five hundred Europeans interned by the Japanese Army in January, 1942.

Apart from the general discomfort, the shortage of food and the complete change in diet caused the most trouble. We had a sudden switch from foods we had been eating all our lives to a diet that lacked the food elements that a European is used to. Twice a day we had a small soup bowl of rice, sometimes combined with chrysanthemum leaves or a thin-leafed water spinach. As a result, the camp was continually full of cases of nutritional diseases, such as beriberi and pellagra or wounds that wouldn't heal.
