It's a Good Thing U.S. Troops
Didn't Try to Take the Bonins
(Editor's note: American troops
advancing across the Pacific in
World War II bypassed the Bonin
Islands. 500 miles south of Tokyo.
H'8 a good thing they did. U. S.
units, which took over peacefully
at war's end, found some strange
things in the Bonins. including a
good-sized community named Yan
keetown. Here's a look at the is
lands today and people who live
there.)

And though native features are
Oriental, accents are predominant
ly New England heritage of Mas
sachusetts pioneers who settled the
island chain more than a century
ago.
Before World War II, the popula
tion of the . islands was around
5,000. Men Oped from the fertile
ocean and the lush island fields.
There's not much farming done
today, but the fishermen still put
to sea in colorful outriggers, and
depend on the American Navy for
the rest of their supplies.
American Names
Although the natives look like
Japanese, most of them carry
names like Savory. Washington,
Robinson and Gilley, which mark
their antecedents almost as strong
ly as their broad A's( twangy Eng
lish and the name of Chichi Jima's
principle settlement, Yankeetown.
The Bonins the name is the cor
ruption of a Japanese term mean
ing "empty of men" was convert
ed into an impregnable fortress by
the Japanese, who closed the island
group 500 miles south of Tokyo to
the rest of the world in 1935. Caves,
tunnels with vault-type doors, and
fortifications ringing Chichi Jima's
deepwater Lloyd Harbor have con
vinced some military men that Iwo
Jima, which cost the United States
2X1.000 casualties, would have been
a picnic by comparison.
Taken Peacefully
Actually, Chichi Jima was taken
over peacefully in December. 1945.
Advancing American units by
passed it while the war was on.
The accepted theory was that the
island was readied for use as a
refuse for the Japanese imperial
family and state papers if the war
went badly on the homeland.
War did come to the Bonins.
however, in 1944. when one U. S.
air raid alone lasted 14 hours with
one break of 20 minutes. By that
time most of the island population
had been evacuated to the Japan
ese home islands and only a few
fishermen remained to lupply
troops.
Through the years since 1830,
when Nathaniel Savory of New
Bedford, Mass., led the original
white settlers to the islands, Japan
ese schools, intermarriage and cus
toms have had their influence on
the inhabitants. But they were nev
er able to erase the Western in
fluence. Celebrated July 4th
Japan annexed the Bonins in 1875
but for generations Yankee de
scendants on the islands secretly
celebrated the 4th of July. During
World War II those who had not
been sent to Japan cheered from
underground shelters as American
bombardiers did their best to level
Japanese fortifications.
Three years ago. the islanders
petitioned the United States for
citizenship, an appeal acknowl
edged "with deep interest and ap
preciation" but little more. Japan
wants the islands there are three
large ones although Chichi Jima is
the only one inhabited now
returned to her.
At the moment, the island eco
nomy is just about what it was
when old Nathaniel Savory and his
hardy pioneers landed there. Fish
is marketed cooperatively through
the Island Trading Company and
each family purchases its necessi
ties through the company.
Council Rales
It is governed by a council, under
Navy supervision. Everything on
this and. except for each family's
plot of ground and small truck
garden, is community-owned
wood, fruit, wild hogs and goats.
Police Chief Wilson Savory, old
Nat's grandson, sets a day when
everyone can gather wild oranges.
He also gives permission to cut
bamboo and go hunting and hunt
ers must give away three-quarters
of their kill for distribution among
the islanders.
There are three major problems
on the islands: A fast-growing
shrub-like tree introduced by the
Japanese for camouflage which is
fast taking over arable soil: the
giant African snail, brought to the
island as an emergency food sup
ply but multiplying too fast for
comfort, and matrimony.
Closel- Related
The business of finding suitable
mates is a tough one because so
many of the inhabitants are closely
related The Navy finally allowed
young men to go to Japan to find
wives, but as no Japanese male
may. under Navy regulations, imi
grate to the islands, girls of mar
riagable age find the future bleak.
One American sailor wanted to
marry a Chichi Jima girl, but was
transferred. He's reportedly on his
way back to the islands as a civil
ian to marry the girl.
The occupying force of Ameri
cans consists of three naval offi
cers and 14 enlisted men. All ex
cept three have their wives and
children with them.
It's an isolated spot with two
radio contacts a day from Guam,
a visit from a small cargo ship
every three weeks, and a once-a-month
visit from a seaplane en
route to or from Japan.
The Navy's job is to maintain
Wheat Prices
Keep Sliding
CHICAGO UP) With the har
vest now rapidly approaching in
the southwest, wheat prices con
tinued to slide downward on the
Board of Trade this week.
Wheat carried rye down with it
and the brown cereal sold at the
lowest price in about 11 years.
Wheat closed the week 6 to 10
cents lower, corn tt-1 H higher,
oats 4 lower, rye 4 4-5 v4 low
er, old crop soybeans 4 i-9 V high
er, new soybeans S 4-4 4 lower
and lard 10 cents to 12.10 a hun
dred pounds lower.
Lloyd Harbor as a fleet anchorage
and to supervise the islanders.
There are indications, however, the
United States may consider the is
lands as a possible advance sub
marine fcfase.
National Protection
Since 1951, the commanding offi
cer and executive officer have been
submarine men and submarines
coming to or leaving Japan stop
off there. Natural defenses, not
ably the sharp cliffs and deep
water of the harbor, make the
bonins a natural for such pur
poses. Navy men, aided by the island
ers, are busy maintaining electri
cal, water and refrigeration sys
tems, building roads,- operating a
garbage collection route, radio sta
tion, hospital, school, weather sta
tion, recreation hall and supervis
ing the building of homes for the
islanders.
Life in the Bonins today is not
much different froan what it was
a century ago except that the U.
S. flag now flies unchallenged.
Ceremony Due
For Pioneers
Of Dirigible
ATLANTIC CITY (INS) A
special ceremony in honor of the
aviatiph pioneers and their gray
kitten mascot who made the his
toric first attempt to cross the
ocean by air in the 228-foot dir
igible "America" will be held
next October 15 at Atlantic City.
That date in 1910, the "Amer
ica" took off from Atlantic City
for Europe with a crew under
the command of Captain Walter
Wellman. Chief Engineer Melvin
Vaniman took with him a gray
kitten.
Although the dirigible set a rec
ord for a sustained flight of 1,
008 miles, the "America' was
forced down at sea due to me
chanical trouble. A steamship
rescued the crew and mascot,
carrying them to a triumphal
welcome in New York City.
The airship, which had been
built in Paris and flown by Captain
Welloian on polar expeditions,
1907-1909, drifted away and was
never seen again. It was the first
aircraft to carry wireless equipment.
Stock Market
Surges Ahead
NEW YORK (jf Stocks surged
ahead in a major bull market ef
fort this week and established new
high records.
On one day the market made its
greatest advance for any session
of the past two years. At the end
of the past week it was at the best
levels of the past 24 years.
The boost ahead was given by
good earnings reports and increas
ed dividend payments.
The Associated Press average of
60 stocks was ahead $1.90 on the
week, one of the better gains of
the year. At the close on Friday
it stood at $121.70. a new high for
the year and the best level for the
average since April 26, 1930.

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) Po

youngsters had for a frolic does
n't spread. The five, from 7 to 12
in age, broke into -.n automobile
warehouse and started driving
cars into each other. Estimated
damage: $4,000.
