One of the most interesting questions involv ed in the war with Japan, although rather un pleasant, is what is to happen to the Japanese civilians? Some of the Americans who have lived in Japan as missionaries or business people may think they know, but the Japanese are facing something they never faced before—death and destruction from the skies and some more of the same from the sea and from the land. Are these people, men, women and children, going to have to be exterminated before the war closes or are they going to collapse? If their'morale disintegrates like that of the Ger mans in 1918, their armed forces will be throu gh, because an army and a navy cannot exist without the home front. What might cause their morale to collapse? Starvation and exposure. As Japanese civilians flee from bomb-riddled Tokyo, martial law is exercised in that city. Approximately half of Tokyo’s population of seven million has fled into the rural areas without food and supplies. In the rural areas they will find no housing facilities and no extra food supplies. The Japanese soldier has been taught that it is dishonorable to surrender to an enemy and that if he dies for the emperor’he will go to the Japanese heaven. Do the civilians feel the same way about it? Will they watch their children starve to death or be blown to bits when they know safety and food supplies lie just beyond the line of surr ender? Only time will answer the questions, but they are interesting to think about.
