I wasn't one of those who fought their way to Japan, Island by is land, stepping atones of bitterness. No Japanese sniper ever fired at me. I never stayed awake all night in a Pacific ditch worrying whether a little brown man would creep up and slit my throat. All my memories of Japan are pleasant. I Invaded it In comfort In the late summer of 1945. It was the dryest-footcd amphibious landing ever made. I was with a bunch ol Okinawa-trained Marines assigned to take an island In Tokyo Bay. The Japanese had already wavea the whit eflag, but there were three old gun positions on this island. , And somebody decided that the is- land ought to be secured against the possibility that the Japs might pull a trick and try to sink the U. S. Navy. So. cussing and praising the shores of Tripoli, the Marines load ed into the Higgins boats and roar ed off toward the island. The first object that carne in sight was a bare-footed old Japanese lady prowling the beach with a basket of clams. She heard the buzzing motors turned and there were the U.S. Marines rushing across the waves straight toward hej, guns loaded. The old lady put her basket ol clams on her head and ran for dear life. I will never iorget her . amazed fear. "This is Japan?" said the Marine next to me as we waded ashore. I guess it was quite a letdown for a man who'd fought on Okinawa. Well, we went into Yokohama. Tokyo, looked down in awe from turrets of the battleship Missouri as Gen. MacArthur signed the sur render terms. The Japanese were furtive, frightened, or overbearingly polite then. . They weren't sure what their conquerors might do. But on the third dav of our stay iu hotel in Tokyo, the room boys started bringing us presents. Flowers. Just an old Japanese custom, but rather unuervtng un til you understand it. I went to Japan again in 1950 shortly after the outbreak of the Korean war. The Japanese were as polite as ever, but no longer frightened. They had learned how to deal with our occupation forces patiently. There had been considerable bribery through entertainment of Americans by highly placed Jap anese. There had been considerable needless throwing-around of-weight bv a number of Americans, sud' denly eating higher on the hog than they ever had at home. But, by and large, it must have been one of the lightest military occupations in history. The Jap anese accepted it with such grace and dignity there really wasn't much to make an issue over. They never lost their polite smile. There have been a lot of friend ships made between Americans and Japanese over there in the last seven years. Some are solid, and will last a long time, because it is easier for different human be ings to understand each other than differing nations. But Japan will seem strange now to one who never knew her before the last war. The subtle change of power will be there. The Utile giant 13 free, loose In a wide world again, for better or for worse. All that will be the same will be the smile. In Japan thai never changes. I suppose that one of the first things we'll have to do Is go back to calling Emperor Hirohito by his proper title. The U.S. occupation troops always cheerfully referred to him as "Charley." Somehow "Charley" had a friend ly sound. I hope the echo lasts- $amM SYlahbiv ABC's NEW YORK I A record number of Americans are exnect- ed to travel to torelgn lands tills summer.

Senator Talk won Illinois over whelmingly against Harold Stassen, the only other candidate on the ballot. General Eisenhower took Pennsylvania, Taft collected close to isio.dod write-ins. Taft s percent age of the Illinois vote was 73, against Eisenhower's 11 oer cent. Ike's share of the Pennsylvania Re- puDiic total was 76, against Tait's 13 per cent. Both write-in showings were cred itable under the circumstances. There was more surface evidence of campaign effort behind Ike's Il linois write-in than behind Taffs in Pennsylvania. But not all campaign work meets the eye, and it is pos sible some pretty earnest vote- . jul.'i'a...ww.'.'i'i..fiijmi,.w.AiiiiMiii . m TIME FOR FIGHT KLAMATH FALLS Frank Jen kins recently commented on the apparent desire of the people for knight in shining armor, and he seemed to be indulging the same in support of Eisenhower. JJow I looked favorably on the general too until Senator Mors nm nut for him. Considering the Senator's recora, n is reasonable to assume that he thinks Ike would be Tru man the Second. Now is he indulg ing in wishful thinking, or does lie know 7 For instance, would Eisenhower deliberately bust his own Wage and Price setup by throwing the whole power of the government into han ding a segment of the people un fair advantage for political support and on phoney arguments? "In Cuba they have Batista: . He grabs power In his fist-a: Here, Truman, in a hurrv. Hands his to Phillip Murray." It is high time for a knock-down and drag-out fight against the vest ed Interests oi the Fair Deal by the forces for free private enter prise. Taft will get in there and slug. Will Eisenhower run off to wards the left goal with Morse? It is time he came home and let us know. I sympathize with Ike. Re Is In an impossible position and liable to get his ears batted down through actions oi nis own supporters. John C. ('leghorn Z19 High drumming was done by the Taft forces in Pennslyvania. CONCLUSION The only fair conclusion to draw is that Illinois proved itself good Taft territory and Pennsylvania showed solid Eisenhower leanings. It is too bad these two candidates were not actually matched on the Dauoi in com stales, since a tau test would then have been had in two most populous sectors of the country. Eisenhower was kept off the Illi nois ballot because his campaign leaders considered it an unfavora ble state. Taft was held off the bal lot in Pennsylvania lor much the same reason. We may discount the senator's statement that he staved out be cause the result of the popularity test was not binding- on ripWat. Neither is it In Illinois, New Hamp shire or West Virginia all states I Taft chose to enter. Illinois and Pennslyvania do not quiie cancel each other. Taft won 59 of 60 GOP delegates in Illinois, because the officially unpledged "Miners are actually pro-Tan organ ization candidates. ANOTHER STORY It's another storv in Peimslv. vania, where Governor Fine and orunoy-uwiett organization control some 60 of the unpledged delegates and have not yet committed them to any candidate. Despite Ike's vic tory, iau still may come out with a Dig chunk of that delegate strength. Elsenhower's paralled triumph' in New York Is of a slightly different order. He has been conceded the great bulk of New York's 96 dele gates all along, though Taft people have now and then claimed as many as iu. lice supporters won all but a few of the 11 dismiterf hoi-ihv and thus the general will have close io u aaauional votes at Chicago. Fairly it may b sold that pnn. sylvania and New York ran trim In form. They brought the GOP race closer to the decisive stage, but they did not actually tip the scales either way. Stalin Hears (J.S. Using War Germs By KDDY GILMORE MOSCOW Lfi Generalissimo Slalin. looking much as usual, re viewed the annual parade of Soviet labor and armed might Thursday from Lenin's marble tomb and heard one of his marshals publicly accuse the United States of germ warfare in Korea and China. The 72-year-old Soviet leader halted once on his way up the Ions flight of steps, waving to Russian spectators and foreign diplomats looking up at him from the sunlit stands. Then he turned and" climbed the rest of the way to the reviewing tribune, closely attended by 50-year-old Georgi M. Malenkov. a deputy premier and member of the Politburo. (After the lavish celebration of Mnlenkov's birthday last January, many western observers believed he had been picked as Stalin's successor.) THREAT Marchal Leonid A. Govorov. war time commander of the Leningrad army, made an anti-Western speech to troops massed in Red I Square. He said the Soviet armed torces will deal a "devastating blow to any attempt of imperialist aggressors to interrupt the peace ful and creative labors of the Soviet people." Standing by Stalin, he asserted: "In a mockery of mternational agreements, the American barbar ians are carrying out the greatest crime against humanity making use of bacteriological weapons in Korea and China." Until now, no marshal of the Soviet Union had accused the United States of germ warfare, al though Moscow newspapers have made the charge repeatedly. DENIALS (The United States has repeated ly denied the Communist charges and proposed that the Interna tional Red Cross make an investi gation in Korea and China but the Communists have derisively re fused the proposal.) i ne Anglo-American Ham P. Hllred. director general of the International Air Transport Association, tears. INCREASE He predicts that the new low-faro tourist anrvlce across the Atlantic which the airlines start Thursday will bring trans Atlantic passen ger this year to 600.000 as against 310.000 last year. "The procedures of customs, health and Immigration inspectors will be entirely new. and probably Irksome to them." ho says. He thinks the 11 airlines on the transatlantic route will llnd It easier to transport this flood ol new travellers than to soothe their tempers during the checks and delays of border crossings. And he pleads for streamlining. A businessmen's group the United Slates Council of tho In ternational Chamber of Commerce agrees. It appeals to government offi cials, legislators, businessmen, far mers, workers and the general public to pressure governments everywhere to remove unnecessary red tape. The council hits ideas about what should bo done. A passport should be all the Identification needed it says. Entry visas should be abol ished wherever they are still used. Police certitlcales of good con- duct, are Just meaningless paper work, the council adds. Nor should governments continue the common practice of insisting on surrender of passports to government offi cials. The period of vaccinations, in noculuttons and certificates ol health should be standardized. Some government won't accept a small pox vaccination as valid after one year, and some up to three years. SIMPLIFICATION Some of the complexities of for eign travel and trade are being attacked In a customs simplification bill which the U. S. House has passed and sent to the Senate. ine trouble importers nave wun present U. S. customs procedure is noted today in the May survev of the Guaranty Trust Co. of New York. For example: "Customs officers do not simply levy duties on the value stated In the consular Invoice." the bank says. "Rather, they must ascer tain the 'foreign value' the price at which the merchandise is freely offered in the country ol origin and also the 'export value' the price at which It Is freely1 offered for export and then use whichever is higher In billing the Importer." The bill before the Senate Fin ance Committee eliminates foreign value" as a criterion. The bank thinks there's a good chance the Senate will pass Is this summer. Gifts for i .. vim onherday G.N.

If he lacked that safe dis card, he would simply meld out without asking any questions. When you aren't sure that your partner Is that dependable, you cannot afford to refuse permission. rou must seme tor a neaitny pro fit by allowing him to meld out. The profit, after all, is bound to be pretty good. The opponents will lose 800 points for their red threes and about 200 points (conservative ly) for the cards in their hands. While they are golns 1000 points In the wrong direction, you will be get ting 300 points for a canasta, 100 points for melding out, and about 200 points in cards. The total gain on the hand will be about 1600 points In spite of the fact that you are caught with a count of 160 points. If you give up this sure 1600 polnt profit, you must consider the possibility that the hand will devel op soon into one of the ordinary hands in which you make only a few hundred points. The opponents might even meld out before your side does, and thus gain a few hundred themselves. Against this, what is the chance that you can make a real killing by keeping the hand alive. The chance is good if you and your partner both have Dlentv of cards and if both are good players. With a aouDitui partner, by all .means settle for the bird In the hand.
