WASHINGTON m So Japan
is free. How will it be from now ou
between us?
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-

In a reasonably accurate sense,
Pennsylvania's presidential pri
mary was Illinois in reverse.
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-

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.

get his ears batted down through

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,

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

closer to the decisive stage, but
they did not actually tip the scales

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.
