Interesting news Irom Tokyo:
In n unprecedented criticism of
an occupation agency, Yomlurl,
Tokyo's largest newspaper, said to
day Japanese Rio FEU UP with
nn American-ordered radio soap
opera on the deinocrallo way of
lite.
The program relates the experi
ence ol a "Mlu kirlko," a mythi

... It waa written by Japenone
UNDER AMERICAN SUl'BKVI
H10N . . . H tells the Japa how
WE think they oughl to live THEIK

I haven't heard It, but If It la
a.i nuiiiby-paniby and bluiied-ahirty
as aomo ol our propaganda stuif
I have heard I don't blame Uic
Japunene lor rebelling.
Personally, 1 doubt If democracy

V to work, democracy haa to come
up from the bottom. People have
to WANT It. II told at tue point
ol a gtui In the hands of conqueror
" that thev niual take It or eUe,
ihey may accept It outwardly but
Inwardly they'll rebel. That'e Juat
human nature.
It has aeenicd to me for quite
a while that we are trying to
force our brand of democracy un
the real of the world. I'm aure
that's mistake. The Swine have
a pretty good kind of democracy
and It haa served them well. Ob
viously, they LIKE It.
But If aomebody tried to FORCE
the Swiss wav of life on us we'd
tight bloody murder against It.
Our way of life came to us BE
CAUSE WE WANTED IT. Our
forefathers were fed to the ears
with the medlevsl mens In Europe.
Thry were willing to risk even
death to get what they wanted.
Coming to us In that natural, logi
cal way, our particular brand of
democracy has worked.
Incidentally, another Japanese
problem Is facing us. Our boys
over there era beginning to marry
Japanese Iris. They ara marrying
them by the thousands. They are
bringing their brldea HOME with
them.
Also, la many cases, their CHIL
DREN. These Japanese wives (and
- their children) ara coming to
- America under a temporary
' relaxation of our Immigration laws
which refuse; American cltlsenshlp
1 to Orientals. This temporary re
' taxation la due to expire soon. But
' H looks like Amerlcsn boys wtll
, be In the Orient (Including Japan)
, for a long time. If nature contln-
ties to take Its course, a lot mora
M thorn will marry Japanese girls.
What ara we going to do about

We're bow beginning to took
Upon lbs Japanese as our allies.
We're coming to RELY ON THEM
aa a bulwark In the East against
communism. We're expecting a lot
of them to die In defense of our
wsy of Ufa against communist ag
gression. As things are going now. It won't
be long before the Japanese are
going to want to know why. 11
THEY'RE OOOD ENOUOH TO
DIE FIOHTINQ BESIDE US FOR
THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE,
they aren't good enough to be
come American oltlaens and
SHARE In the American way of
life.
Especially the Japanese girls
who marry American boys and
bear children who are HALF
American.
It's a tough problem.
How are we going to answer It?
If we're going to run the world,
whlch'we are apparently commit
ted to do, we're going to face a
lot of problems like that. We might
as well be thinking about them
now. Some of our thinking la going
to have to run along this line.
If a guv la going to die beside

Spud Picture
Gloomy As
Dates Near
The polalo situation, left In a
state of confusion by the recent
Office of Price Stabilization celling
price order, still Is har.y and un
clear to buyers and growers.
In Washington, D.C., the govern
ment yesterday announced that re
tall prices for white potatoes will
be rolled bsck on Jan, 28 tp re
flect ' the lower ceilings at the
farm-shipper level.
The ceilings to the growers will
become ellectlve this Saturday,
Jan. 19.
Some buying was reported going
on litis week, but perplexed Job
bers report they-don't know what
they can legally do.
Scott Warren, Klamath grower
attending an OPS mooting In Wash
ington, DC wired here yesterday
that an adjustment on the price
ceilings which would roll back
present farm prices for spuds by
around 11.60 did not look too hope
ful. Warren asld that when' the farm
ers deal with the OPS, they are
"dealing with organized labor."
Agriculture, he ssld. Is up
against It.
The state department of agricul
ture reported this morning ship
ments the past two days were 15
and 18 carloads of potatoes per
dsy respectively. That Is a great
drop from peak shipments at the
end of November when one day
saw 101 cars shipped to market.
Shipments have dropped off
steadily alnce the OPS announced
the first of the year that price
ceilings would be imposed.
Potalomen reported this morning
Army buying waa actually the only
atlr on the market at present, and
that Is unatesdy. Inspectors report
ed a good portion of the shipments
reported this week were still the
"pre-OPS" contracts being ful
filled. Price Stabiliser Michael V. Dl
Salle said the order setting the
maximum retail price markups
will be Issued the next few days.
The markups, he said, will take
Into aocounl the "five to 10 per
cent cut In country shipping point
prices" ordered to take effect Sat
urday. OPS officials explained the retail
price action will give stores an op
portunity to dispose of potatoes
they msy have bought at prices
higher than the ceilings.
Oftlclala aald that after Jan. 28
retailers will be required to com
pute new prices weekly to reflect
the average costs In buying po
tatoes the previous week.

The second week's square danc
ing at Fremont school came off
"without a hitch" last night with
more than 180 persons participat
ing, according to Recreation Direc
tor Bob Bonney.
Otto Ellis was in charge of call
ers, who included Mr. and Mrs.
B. M. Antle; live music was sup
plied by Mr. and Mrs. Ernst Gert
land. Tulclake, playing manual
and electric guitars.
Bonney noted that the square
dancing crowd has apparently sta
bilized; last week tnere were but
few more on hand to open the
community wide square and folk
dance series.
More beginners were present
than advanced dancers, as last
week, Bonney said. The group de
cided to eliminate refreshments as
uie evening was not long enough
to include a refreshment break.
Lowell Collins was elected chair
man of a committee to set up an
"Old Fiddlers" contest to be held
at the dances, which are sched

at 8 from now until the demand
wears out.

A Russian proposal to move the
armistice talks from Korea to high
er levels in Paris previously had
oeen rejected.
Vishinsky said "unreasonable de
mands . presented by the Ameri
can command can give no hope for
successful conclusion" of the ar
mistice talks now going on at Pan-
munjom.
In a slashing speech before the
United Nations Political Commit
tee. Vishinsky called U.S. Gen.
Gen. James A. Van Fleet a "can
nibal" unfitted to conduct the
talks.
He also accused U.S. Secretary
of Slate Dean Acheson of not want
ing any form of atomic control
and doing his best to undermine
Russian attempts to get it.
Nevertheless, the committee sent
Vlshlnsky's atom program to the
newly created Disarmament com
mission for intensive study. The
vote on a British-French-American
resolution suggesting this course
was 53 to 5. with two abstentions.
The votes followed a two-hour
tirade by Vishinsky in which the
Soviet foreign minister, with
mounting fury, shouted that "only
hypocrites" could want to leave
the Korean truce talks in the hands
of Van Fleet and the U.N. military
leaders.

to connection with Foitras and the
other burglaries. Browne said,
Both have records as Juvenile
