Treatment For Emperor
Of Japan Divides Allies
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
WASHINGTON", July 31 (VP)
Allied councils are divided
sharply over the treatment to be
accorded Emperor Hirohito of
Japan.
The difference of views,
which, spreads among groups
within the United States govern
ment as well as among other
governments, is understood here
to have been the basic reason
why the Potsdam ultimatum to
Japan omitted all reference to
Hirohito or to the monarchy as
an institution.
As a result, the way still is
open for the Japanese to try to
save their emperor as the pin
nacle of their government. How
ever, American officials say they
are hurting their chances by de
laying inevitable capitulation.
Althoueh Premier Suzuki's re
jection of the Potsdam demand
is described here as something
of a poker move in the hope of
winning higher stakes, there is
at the moment a lessening hope
of any immediate surrender on
the part oi ioKyo.
There are those, however,
who take a brighter view. They

Theodore Roy Kaake, 19, of

The motorcycle was thrown

a broken collarbone, head injur
ies and body, bruises.
Passing motorists, called the
Klamath merchants' police am

cite first, the terrific beating
the Japanese are taking and sec
ond, the fact that there are pre
sumed to be within Japan po
tential leaders who really would
like to end the war. It is around
the ideas of these people toward
the emperor that much of the
controversy over Japan's su
preme, ruler has revolved.
A- check, of officials here
shows the situation at "the mo
ment to be this:
1. The British are reported
following the line that the Japa-
n e s e emperor should be pre
servedcertainly the institution
of monarchy in Japan primari
ly as a means of preventing
chaos and possibly eventual dic
tatorship in the war -wrecked
country.
2. At the other extreme, the
peoples' political council of
China has recommended to the
Chinese government that Hiro
hito be branded as a war crim
inal. Diplomatic officials here
say that recommendation will
have enormous weight in
Chungking.
3. The United States is fol
lowing a middle of the road,
"wait and see" policy. The the
ory is that if the Japanese peo
ple really want Hirohito they
probably should have a chance
to demonstrate the fact.
4. The situation has been fur
ther complicated by Australian
rejection of the entire Potsdam
ultimatum as being too lenient
toward the Japanese. The offi
cial view here is that while it
did promise them freedom of
government, religion and so on,
it actually laid down the frame
work of a "hard" peace.

industrial plant was sauarely

bombardment lasted only five
minutes, during which 90 sheila
