Nimifz' Speech At Capitulation Aboard USS Missouri, Tokyo Bay, Sept. 4 W.P Following is the official text of remarks made by Fleet Admiral Chester V. Ni mitz at the surrender of Japan Sunday: On board all naval vessels at sea and in port, and at our many island bases in the Pacific, there is rejoicing and thanksgiving. The long and bitter struggle which Japan started so treach erously on the seventh of De cember 1941 is at an end. I take great pride in the Am erican forces which have helped to win this victory. America can be proud of them. The officers and men of the United States army, navy, marine corps, coast guard and merchant marine who fought in the Pacific have writ ten heroic new chapters in this nation's military history. I have infinite respect for their cour age, resourcefulness, and devo tion to duty. We also acknowl edge the great contribution to this victory made by our valiant allies. United we fought and un ited we prevail. The port of Tokyo which was first opened by Commodore Per ry in 1853 is now crowded with United States men o'war. The process of bringing Japan into the family of civilized nations, which was interrupted, when Ja pan launched her program of conquest, will soon begin again. Today all freedom-loving peo ples of the world rejoice in the victory and feel pride in the accomplishments of our combin ed forces. We aiso pay the trib ute to those who defended our freedom at the cost of their lives. Now we turn to the great tasks of reconstruction and res toration. I am confident that we will be able to apply the same skill, resourcefulness and keen thinking to these problems as were applied to the problems of winning the victory.
