The president's declaration that Japan will have no chance to obtain revenge for Its defeat came in response to a reporter's question.: The reporter said most Jap incse radio pronouncements lince acceptance of the surrender terms seem to indicate the Jap anese are planning a military come-back in the future. - Usual FUng Nearly every defeated people lelt that way about it, the presi dent remarked. But, he added, he did not think the Japanese ever would have a chance to ob tain revenge, . There was nothing, the presi dent added, likely to come out of this that the reporters would have to break an arm for in getting to the telephone. Some white House reporters have been injured recently in scrambles to break war news. When a reporter asked what was to be done with the three large plants that make up the Manhattan project where the major work is done in produc ing the atomic bombs, the presi dent said that its up to congress. Atomic Uiei In the long run, he said, the atomic energy developed for use in these devastating bombs can be employed for the welfare and benefit of the world instead of Its destruction. He hoped, -the president said, that congress would cooperate in peacetime development of the atom splitting project. He said the work is continuing mean while until congress makes a decision. Previously Mr. Tru man had urged congressional establishment of a commission which would control production of atomic energy and direct its Tired Kidneys Often Bring Sleepless Nights Doctors ny TonrlrMiM contain If mOea erf tiny tubes or filter which help to purify tha blood and keep you healthy.

That surrender won't be complete, he added, until an estimated 2,000,000 Japanese lay down their arms. Discussing foreign affairs gen erally, the president said there had been tulk at the Big Three meeting in Potsdam of the Korean situation and it was his belief that the Cairo declaration which ultimately would make Korea a free and independent state would be carried out. There was no talk at the Pots dam meeting, he said, of the future fate of Hong Kong, Brit ish crown colony which was seized by the Japanese early in the war.

Gasoline coudoiis and blue ra Hon points are in the waste bsslcet. People knew a little better where they were bound and what the goals were." And through it all ran solemn statements like these: ' From Reconversion Director John W. Snyder: 'The greatest single danger to an orderly re conversion lies in the threat of inflation. We cannot and must not repeat our folly after Worm War I." From Price Administrator Chester Bowles: "After World War I, economic fumbling de layed orderly peacetime recon version for more than two vears ." From Stabilization Director William H. Davis: "We cannot afford to risk an unstable, ruin ous economy such as we had aft er the last war." Then Davis, broadcasting last night with Snyder and otner of ficials, recalled what happened after Armistice Day in 1918: Price controls were dropped. In the next few months, as indus try shifted, there was a short lull. Prices sagged. The danger of inflation seemed over. Workers with new peacetime jobs rushed to stores to spend their savings. There weren't enough goods. Storekeepers and manufacturers started a "w i 1 d scramble" to buy everything the? could. P r i c es skyrocketed. Then came the collapse. People could n't pay the high prices. Prices crashed. Bankrupt businesses numbered 110,000. Jobless peo ple numbered 5,500,000. More than 400,000 farmers lost their farms. ; Snyder, : terming the nation "at the cross-roads," urged man agement, labor, farmers and gov ernment to work together with the same, spirit that enabled them to wln-the war. " . .' Churchill Credits Atomic Bomb For War's Sudden End - (Continued From Page One) army surrendered on May 8 and the Russians declared war on August U is no mere coincidence, but another example of the fi delity and punctuality with whicn Marshal Stalin and his valiant armies always kept their military engagements,"- Church ill said. The house cheered. "We were in the presence of a new factor in human affairs powers which were irresistabie," he said - of the atomic bomb. "President Truman and my self at Potsdam approved the myself at Potsdam approved the military plans to unchain the dread forces." Cites Criticism -The chunky, 70 -year -old statesman declared that "there are voices which assert that the atomic bomb should never have been used at all." But, he added bluntly: "I cannot associate myself with such ideas. Six years of total war have convinced most people that, had the Germans or the Japanese discovered this new weapon, they would have used it upon us to our complete de struction with the utmost alac rity." Cheers sounded from both sides of the house. TlefWlasI sii Then always use this JFJfll Si Canada Dry'a when you're ...-.... ' you'll hear-; . "i81 . SJf rluidsposll n FAMOUS !

Admiral Nimitz disclosed 133 warships made up the allied naval force which knocked out nearly 3000 Japanese planes and more than 1600 vessels around Japan in the last 10 weeks of the war. The greatest British East In dies naval and carrier force was on its way to hammer the ap proaches to Singapore when halted by Tokyo's capitulation. The southeast Asia command said Japanese commanders would face the firing squad if they didn't hand over military installations intact. Admiral Nimitz indicated the formal surrender might take place aboard his flagship. Ma nila dispatches had indicated the surrender would be at Mac Arthur's headquarters. Jaoan'i once swaggering Kwangtung army headquarters appealed to the soviet forces to halt their conquest of Man churia. Tokyo reported the puppet government at Nanking in oc cupied China "is being dis solved." It would be the first Tokyo-controlled government to fold up. Shortly after the mikado's "cease fire" order was reported issued, Admiral Nimitz disclosed that more than a million tons of fighting ships made up the great allied sea force which roamed the shores of Nippon from July 10 until the mikado capitulated. Score Told An undisclosed number of supply ships operating in the rear made it possible for these forces to continue sending their 1500 planes against Japan up until the last minute. After they had been told the war was over Yank airmen shot down 26 ene my interceptors in self-defense, running their week's score to 1175 planes. On the last day they knocked out 31 enemy vessels, including two submarines, and raised more havoc with transportation, which Tokyo said was so badly crippled Japan would continue to. evacuate its bomb-burned cities. .. . . While the theoretically ended war was tapering off on land fronts, China showed signs of renewing her' pre-war conflict between Chiang Kai-Shek's na tionalist troops and communist forces. China Goal Both have their eyes set on occupying north China. The communists' - announced - their troops were near Feipmg and unofficial reports said they were moving on all key north China cities. They rejected an ulti matum from Chiang to with draw and appealed to allied powers for recognition. To the north, soviet armies drove deeper into Manchuria, rapidly engulfing wide areas.

The "cease fire" order was spread throughout Burma where 350,000 Japanese have been killed, but British forces were told to reply if Japanese con tinued to fight. Pamphlet Shower Another 231 Nipponese were killed in the northern Philip pines yesterday despite pamph lets showered on them announc ing the war was over, The continued battling wus north of Manila where the mi kado's peace envoy is to surren der to General MacArthur, su preme allied commander. Mac Arthur expressed his irritation last night at the delay In Tok yo's reply, to his surrender in structions. Tokyo acknowledged receipt ot his instructions only after radio stations all over the world had joined in bombarding Nip pon with repetitious of his mes sages. Stinuon Waits Secretary ot War Stimsnn said half of the 5.000,000 Japanese soldiers who must be told, the war is over are outside Japan, scattered from by-passed mid Pacific islands to Burma. Prom ised reduction of American forces, he said, cannot be car ried out until they "make cer tain that the Japanese have ac cepted the sut render terms in good faith." Back-To-Work Move Denied By Union Men (Continued From Page One) leaving that matter up to the war labor board, A union press re lease said: ' "The union has no intention of returning to work until union shop is granted in all operations. The wage issue will be settled by the national war labor board and until a decision is made by that agency, the union is hold ing fast to all their demands. The release said that "so far, the operators have shown no in clination to negotiate on the union shop issue." Union shop agreement pro vides that every workman em ployed by a firm must either be long to the union at the outset. or join in a specified time. None or tne tirms nave sucn a pro vision in their present contracts. Advantage The advantage to the union of such a provision is regarded as especially important at a time when large numbers of men may soon be expected to be seeking jobs, such as returning service men. If union shop is in force, these men would be forced to join' the union to continue on a job. If it is not in force, non union and anti-union men might soon get into many jobs. Company spokesman, refer ring to service men, have pointed out their reluctance to take a step forcing these men to join unions to obtain or continue on jobs. ' ' ... The CIO headquarters here said that the international negotiating committee will meet in Portland Friday and discuss the Klamath Falls strike issue. It added that the strike com mittee of local 6-12 has gone on record' that district and local of ficials of the union shall sit in on all meetings between '.he various companies and the union plant committees, meaning that union officials will be in a posi tion to keep an eye on all talk between employers and employes.

Ho .added that there was no discussion at the Pots dam Big Three conference of how long Germany will be oc cupied. This was his answer to a reporter's, observation that a two year program of repara tions seemed to indicate the oc cupation period might last that length ot time. No Zones for Japs The president indicated Japan will not be divided into occu pation zones as was Germany. The situation there is different from that in Europe, he sold, and he saw no necessity for establishment of zones. Tho occupation forces will be drawn from all . the major allies, the president indicated, but these troops will be under the supreme command of Gen. Dt.uglas MacArthur.
