juices, from which all restric
tions were lifted lust after war's
end. The demand for tomatoes,
for instance, has increased many
times, now that blue points are
not required. This firm said that
the call for these products was
draining the immediate local
supply, due to the fact that sup
ply was iaia in on a rauuiiuiK
basis.
Department stores reported
business just a little above nor
mal, although one store official
said that back-to-school business
doesn't appear equal to that at
the same time last year. This
may be due in part to an expec
tation that merchandise will be
regularly available from now
on, while last summer there was
a tendency to lay in a full year's
supply in fear of later shortages.

Ketchum said his organization
had not taken a stand on the
proposed measure but asserted
"if we have full employment.
the veterans problem will large
ly be solved."
Seniority Suggested
He said the VFW advocated
legislation granting statutory
seniority to veterans equivalent
to the length of their military or
naval service to be used in ob
taining employment.
"If there is to be some unem
ployment," Ketchum asserted,
"the burden should not be borne
entirely by the returning vet
eran who could hot accumulate
seniority and job protection
while in the armed forces."
Miller W. Rice, national serv
ice director of the disabled
American -veterans, expressed
general approval of the prin
ciples of the bill but stressed
what he called the necessity of
giving partly disabled veterans
preference in public and private
employment, and Increasing
benefits for wholly disabled
former servicemen.

by the hundreds of thousands of
troops and civilians of all na
tions, the food all tastes alike
but not like food. It makes no
difference whether you pay 18
shillings for it at the hot spots
or two and six at a run of the
mill place. It all manages to
taste the same.
. As everywhere in Europe, the
food is certainly better in the
country.
"TOMATOES (pronounced tom-
ah-tocs by most and tom-mat-toes
by quite a few) are not a
natural English crop and are im
ported in normal times, many of
them coming from the Channel
islands, some from France and
quite a few from Spain.
The English climate lacks the
sun and heat necessary to ripen
them. But because of their high
vitamin content they are import
ant in war diet. Since the whole
British food effort has been di
rected at adequate food to main
tain health, plus saving of ship
ping space, growing of tomatoes
has been one of the "musts."
They are grown - outside,
picked from the vines and rip
ened under glass. They are about
the size of a good Dig walnut,
but their flavor is good and the
British like this home product
so well that there is some
thought that tomatoes may be
grown commercially after the
war.
Potatoes are heavily grown as
a war "must," because of their
high food total per acre. Potato
growing will slump sharply after
this harvest.

Since our endeavors to build

observed Mainichi.
The Nippon Times noting

"A new political system must
be established in Japan, but it
must be a system evolved sin
cerely and soundly as a natural

that "we are going to have or

"There is no need to have any

Smith. "You can have all the

insecurity of jobs is to price this
lumber out of the market."
A. J. Voye, president of the

"price out of business the whole

creat the inflation will result?
(This Is inflation: When prices

But Davis reasoned:
1. Bosses who give raises will
do it voluntarily, understanding
they can't raise prices.
2. Even in normal times pay
increases don't necessarily mean
higher prices.
3. Although some wages are
increased, the nation's total pay

elimination of wartime overtime,

Withdrawal of Japanese
armed forces In tho territory
"within a line Unking tho east
bank of tho Knmo-Guwa river,
Chibu City, tho estuary of the
Tamagawa river, Fuchu, Huch
iojl, Ot.iukl and tho southern
end of the Izu peninsula" as
"promptly as possible" was or
dered by the Imperial commun
ique. The communique added that
two allied fleets will enter
Sagaml bay, which is the outer
waters off the Tokyo area, with
"one unit entering Tokyo bay if
conditions are favorable."
Time Blackout
Actual time of tho beginning
of the fleet movements was not
given In the somewhat vaguely
worded text but the commun
ique specified that "on August
28, using warships and naval
transports, troops will bo landed
In the vicinity of Atsugl and
Yokosuka."
The Japanese announcements
were the first disclosures of
plans for tho triumphal entry by
allied forces which will lead to
the formal surrender to General
MacArthur as supremo allied
commander.
MacArthur had announced
only that the occupation would
be carried out by the end of the
month.
Envoys Return
Tokyo's disclosures followed
an Imperial announcement that
the mikado's surrender envoys
had returned to Tokyo with ex
plicit Instructions of what the
Japanese must do to prepare for
occupation. The imperial an
nouncement, which is tradition
ally made public, was the first
word the Japanese people had
that their envoys had gone to
Manila at MacArthur's order.
Japanese general headquart
ers radioed MacArthur that both
white-painted envoy planes had
returned to Tokyo, after being
delayed by air mishaps.
Taxi Raltased
The text of the credentials
carried by Lt. Gen. Takashiro
Kawabc, head of the negotiators,
was released by MacArthur's
general headquarters today. It
ended any possible speculation
as to his authority to bind the
nation to his promises. In effect
lt meant unconditional surren
der. MacArthur's post-conference
statement yesterday made lt
plain that the negotiations de
veloped no concessions beyond
the original one of preservation
of the throne.
Tell Of Acceptance
- The Japanese, in a second
message on the subject to Mac
Arthur, urgently sought discon
tinuance of parachuting air to
prisoner ot war and internee
camps in the Japanese area by
small American groups. .
The Japanese said they had
accepted the offers of the Swiss
government and of the Red
Cross to represent tho allied gov
ernments; that the special par
ties were "unnecessary" and It
was impossible to guarantee the
safety of such groups.
Return of both the white
painted Japanese surrender
planes was delayed by minor
mishaps but Chief Emissary T.
Gen. Takashiro Kawabc reached
Tokyo at B:30 a. m. (Japanese
time; 7:30 p. m. Monday, eastern
war time) with the instructions
MacArthur's aides had handed
him In two days of strenuous
conferences at Manila.
Tokyo "Fearful"
Tokyo meanwhile professed
to the world that she was ex
tremely fearful many of her mil
itary men "without any exper
ience of actual defeat on the
field of, battle" would create
disorders the moment MacAr
thur and his hosts landed in
Japan.
