must learn to walk before we
can run.
THIS practical realization has
crept into the discussions at
San Francisco and into the de
cisions that have been made.
It is reflected in the charter that
has been written. That is what
makes San Francisco Impressive.
fUT of the realm of hope for
a more perfect future the
war news brings us back with a
bump to the realities of an inv
Derfect present.
On Okinawa the bodies of
Ushijima, Jap commanding gen
eral, and Cho. his chief of staff.
are finally found. Their
stomachs were slit Their throats
were cut.
They had committed harl kirl.
A CAPTURED Jap. who had
" been Ushijima's cook tells
the creepy story.
He prepared a ceremonial din
ner, with food and wine. The
two generals appeared in full
field uniform, their medals pin
ned to tnetr Diouses. tneir Doots
hiehlv polished, their aides and
the members o' their staff fol
lowing them. They knelt with
bowed heads on a white sheet,
symbolic of death facing the
Pacific ocean, because the nar
rowness of the ledee whereon
they knelt orevented them from
facing to the north toward the
imrjeriai oalace.
Let's tell the rest of it in the
words of Al Dopking, AP cor
respondent on Okinawa:
"An aide held two knives,
each wraDped in white Hoth, Art
adjutant with drawn saber stood
on Ushijima' right. Both gen
eral. bared their abdome". As
Ushijima plunged a knife into
his stomach the adjutant swung
his saber downwards, severing
the general's spinal column. He
tumbled forward dead. Cho
went through an identical cere
mony." THINGS like that are whv we
mustn't LOSE OURSELVES
in the rosy clouds of planning
fo- a brighter future.
Before there can be a brighter
future for the world and the
oeoo'e who live in it the IN
DOCTRINATION process that
produced what happened on that
led Mnawa must be
LIQUIDATED. '
Ou- job now is to do the
liquidating.

To Handle All
Communications
SAN FRANCISCO, June 27
(IP) The Japanese government,
readying the home Islands as
an invasion battlefield, decided
today to use its new dictatorial
powers to take control of all
military and private communi

corded by the federal communi

tal, telegraph, telephone and ra
dio facilities would be affected.
Tokyo's domestic broadcast
told the Japanese people the
"extraordinary measure" would
go into effect early in Septem
ber, but the overseas broadcast
set the date as the start of July.
