WILL JAPS COLLAPSE?
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.
