Japanese Now Plan Cities of Future To Replace Losses SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 9 (UP; Japan, spurred by allied air attacks on the homeland, is turn ing attention to Japanese "cities of the future." Tokyo radio, recorded by United Press, said the Nippon Times pointed out that "since enemy air raids are making pos sible extensive replanning of Japanese cities, no time should be lost in seeing to it this replan nig is done in such a way as to express most accurately the true character of Japanese social ideals." The Times agreed with home minister Genki Abe the "cities of the future" should not be allowed to have more than 1,000,000 in habitants. "Simplicity, restraint, chastity, beauty and appreciation of things" should stress the Jap anese spirit And anyway small er, less congested cities will al ways "render possible quicker evacuation" under air raids, To kyo added.
