Memo of Jinnaka written 11 June 1947 - Nakashima, Yoshisada. Director of Attached Hospital of Medical Faculty, KIU from 1944 t o 1946. He was particularly perturbed as to how to help the hospital from an air raid. Hirao is the husband of Nakashlma's daughter. Despite this, Nakashima states that Hirao never told him about it, until after the war, and he (Jinnaka) thinks that Nakashima then asked Hirao to resign. In the spring of 1946 Nakashima received an anonymous letter that if the latrines were not cleaned at the Hospital, the writer would inform the Occupation of the Allied PW operations, according to information Jinnaka received from Mrs. Nakashima. Similar letters were sent to the dean and the newspaper after the war. Nakashima thought that it was done by the Communist group on the Faculty. After the newspaper disclosed the operations someone left a letter on Nakashima's desk which stated: "The letter about the PW operation case was written by our group. But now I am outside the group. I must apologize that we troubled Mr. Nakashima so much by the nameless letters." |
