American was killed and two
were wounded in a 25-minute
running fight between two photo
reconnaissance B-32s and 14
Japanese Zeroes over the Tokyo
area today three days alter Em
peror Hirohito's announcement
of Japanese surrender.
It was the second attack In
two days on peaceful American
photo missions. Four planes of
the same bombardment group
were attacked yesterday without
casualties, and two formations
of P-38 photo planes met heavy
anti-aircraft fire over Kyushu
but escaped without damage.
American gunners shot down
two of the enemy fighters In to
day's fight. Both B-32s returned
to Okinawa bases, one of them
badly holed by the Japanese
guns which shot out one of its
four engines.
The Zeroes pounced on the
two American planes at 1:25 p.
m., Tokyo time, about 20 miles
south of Choshi.
Lieut. J. R. Anderson, Char
lotte, N- C, said he was flying
kt 20,000 feet on a peaceful photo
mission when the Zeroes swarm
ed in, knocking out one of his
engines with their first pass.
Anderson radioed the other
B-32:
"Can you slow down? My
number three engine is shot out
and I can't keep up with you."
One of the Japanese pilots cut
In and said in English:
"Yes, please slow down so I
can catch you and shoot you
down."
Anderson said his reply was
unprintable but "if that Jap
understands English as well as
he speaks it, his cars are still red
hot."
The Zeroes continued the at
tack, diving into the zone of fire
set up by the guns of the two big
bombers. They ' ripped huge
holes In the windows and fusel
age of Anderson's craft, killing
his photographer and wounding
one of his crewmen seriously and
another slightly.
fear; never missing a news
broadcast; afraid to read the
headlines and afraid not to. Nev-
er in their liftime will war be
associated with parades and
bands and synthetic glory.
And then from an older worn-1
man: "Well, now the war's over,
I can stay home and take care of ;
the kids. Not that my mother 1
doesn't care for them better
than I will, but I want to tend
to them myself. So now Bert :
and I are going to start building 1
ourselves some memories; now
that the war's over." j

Olive
Barber's
Letter
San Francisco, Aug. 18 uJ.R)
Japanese broadcasts said today
that the Japan Political associa
tion, Nippon's Totalitarian party,
has been dissolved, and that the
new cabinet members already
were planning extensively for
the nation's future.
Radio Tokyo, announcing the
end of the political association
which was organized to bring
"sure victory" to Japan pre
dicted that at least four parties
would emerge in the postwar
parliament, involving a "vast
and complete shakeup" in that
body.
Domci, the Japanese news
agency, said that Mamoru Shige
mitsu, foreign minister in the
new cabinet of Gen. Prince
Naruhiko Hlgashikunl, stressed
at a press conference Japan's
need for the world's sympathy
and understanding."
He also was quoted as saying
that "unfortunately, we have to
face the fact that we have been
defeated. This fact should be
admitted as it Is, and any over,
optimistic views should be
avoided."

Is taking her vacation while her
husband is on "leave" from the
South Pacific. "I doubt if she
comes back at all, now that the
war is over," so said another
girl. So sure do they feel that it
is over, already they are road
lusting their lives to a world of
pence. A world where a girl
wife no longer need to hold a
job until her man comes back
and they can have a home; yes,
and start raising a family. In
variably, that is included.
I must start collecting rec
ipes. Bob will soon be home,
now that the war is over. (Those
oft repeated words, rooted in
wishful thinking rather than
realty!) We wore married such a
little while, I didn't have time
to learn how Bob likes things
fixed." And then, perhaps be
cause we were alone, she said,
her eyes enormous, her expres
sion almost one of consternation,
"I'm scared as 1 can be!"
Another young woman: "Joe
will be home now that the war s
over. And since wo have our
plans made, we know where we
are going to live. So I went
down this week end and sort of
got acquainted with the place.
And I think I have a house! The
man who owns it practically
promised it to me."
One girl for whom the others
feel a secret pity is one who is
soon to marry a man who ex
pects to make a career of the
navy. They tell her how they en
vy her being married in Annapo
lis and how romantic It will be,
but one said in aside to me,
"Think of living your whole life
In an atmosphere of war!" There
was real horror on her face. War,
to most of these girls, will al
ways mean waiting in constant
