wo at lS INDIANA EVENING GAZETTE, SATOlOAY, AUGUST 18, Today By DEWTT MACKENZIE AP Foreign News Analyst Steed Is Just A Yank Cow Pony JAJPAN BEATEN BUT NOT CONVINCED President Truman's remark, that ht doesn't expect the Japanese to be able to seek revenge, presumably covers a United States, determination to see that they it already looks like a matter far different from that of Germany. After World War 1 the Germans cried that their army had never been beaten, that other factors forced them to break off the war; given a fair chance, their army would have won, and next time it would win. It almost did. In Japan there is an army estimated at 2,250,000 men which has not been beaten in this war, and already the Japanese are saying that they were forced to surrender by material and scientific power; that it is temporary; that the course for Japan is to bow to present' circumstances and build for the future. The emperor admits only that "the was situation has developed not necessarily to Japan's advantage." They speak of regret for dragging down their "Allies," presumably the puppets they set up in the lands they overran.

Just before Hirohito broadcast his surrender rescript, Lt. Gen. Reikichi Tada, president of the Japanese Board of Technology, was on the air saying that "at this time the national feeling is no doubt a desire to rise anew and in the years to come to advance science to the point where some weapon superior to the new type bomb may be devised in revenge." He went on to say that they mustn't feel that way and, instead, must liquidate the military. That's one way to plant ideas without seeming to contradict your emperor while he's making peace, and without gettin glnto an Allied jail. In a recent issue of the "Infantry Journal," a "Major General" Tada was quoted as saying: "The divine mission' of Japan puts her above treaty breaking because what would be wrong in the rest of the world is right in Japan.

For Japan, any means justifies the end." The Tadas are numerous in Japan, though not so numerous as the Smiths of America. But it seems immaterial whether "Lt. General 1 and "Major General" Tada are the same. It's the idea that counts. Emperor Hirohlto's famous white horse, which Admiral Halsey said bed like to ride in a victory parade in Tokyo, is just an American cow pony of pinto stock, according to Dewey H.

The War Production Board today 'unfroze" vast quantities of steel, topper and aluminum for civilian Stern Note Gets Prompt Tokyo Reply (Continued from Page 5) A spokesman said the Japanese' credentials would be examined that night, but that the conference with MacArthur would not start until Monday. The flight to Manila will require to 6 hours after whatever delay is involved in the le transfer and takeoff.

Japan's long delayed flight schedule MacArthur originally instructed the envoy to reach le yesterday enroute to Manila was radioed at 6:44 P. M. today, on the designated frequency. That was 87 minutes earlier than Japan had promised the information in a message which also said another frequency would be used. Tokyo said the envoys would depart in two planes from Kisarazu airdrome, southeast of Tokyo, at 7 A.

M. (6 P. M. Saturday, Eastern War Time.) MacArthur had specified that one plane be used, and that it should depart from Sata Misaki on the southern tip of Kyushu Island. Tlie new Japanese message said the two twin en- gined, single winged land attack aircraft would fly over Sata Misaki and gave a detailed schedule for the flight from that point to le Shima.

It said the planes would bear "markings designated by crosses on a white background. The Japanese apparently also were using different type planes than the one MacArthur designated. "Zero type, model 22-L2D3." The general however, had said they could make such a change. While MacArthur, flanked by newly arrived British, American, Australian and Chinese military leaders, had awaited Japan's reply to his "without further delay" ultimatum for the envoy schedule, the Japanese many hours earlier had reported that their representative would leave Sunday, without designating any hour for departure. Then the official channel fell markedly silent for a long period.

The Japanese said the envoy planes, after passing over Sata Misaki, would proceed via Nakano, Takara and Tori Islands to le. They will fly at 6,000 to 0,000 feet altitude. The message also gave their plane's call signs and radio frequency and asked for le's call sign and frequency. Meantime, preparations continued under unusual for holding the momentous preliminary peace conference in this army city. Head- qiiijrters continued to decline to reveal where MacArthur would meet Nation-Wide Road Program Is Readied By WILLIAM E.

LOWELL WASHINGTON, Aug. Anytime Congress gives the word, a nation-wide highway program is ready for launching. Not even an appropriation is immediately necessary. All Congress needs to do is say that the war- created emergency no longer exists. Congress already has authorized expenditure of a billion dollars a by the federal government, to be matched by an equal amount from the state governments, during the first three years after the war.

This, Congress said, will begin a system of national, inter-state highways. In addition it provided $37,500,000 a year for forest roads; $4,250,000 a year for park roads; $10,000,000 a year for parkways and $6,000,000 a year for access roads to Indian reservations. And it said $17,000,000 of earmarked federal aid a balance from previous appropriations, will be available for use when the emergency is ended. For every $100,000,000 expended in road building, the Public Roads Bureau estimates that 19,350 man- years of direct employment and 43,120 years of indirect employment will be required. Indirect employment includes labor in manufacture of machinery, steel, cement, tile and various other construction material.

Allotments to the states for the first year the federal program is in effect include $24,973,006 for Pennsylvania. Individuals Taking Over WASHWGTON, of government-owned war plants will be taken over by private industry during the next few months. Government officials directing disposal of some $10,000,000,000 of surplus plants and equipment predicted today that sales and to now only a increase substantially before long. These officials, ananymous at their request, forecast also that private enterprise will put these facilities into civilian production quickly enough to absorb thousands of released war workers. The job of disposing of around 1,000 government plants and federally-owned additions to private holdings had scarcely begun when the war ended.

So far none of the government's huge aircraft, aluminum, magnesium and synthetic rubber plants actually have been sold. These, together with vast steel plants, make up the lion's share of the government's holdings. Officials expect that some special purpose war plants may turn out to be "white elephants" with no peacetime powder plants, for example. These consist of hundreds- of small buildings spread over thousands of acres. This land, it was suggested, may be turned back to agriculture.

Declaration of a plant as surplus does not mean, of course, that it's ready for civilian production, even when there is a buyer immediately available. Plants must be cleared of munitions equipment and negotiations must proceed through channels set up by Congress. Companies operating the plants have, in most cases, option to buy. When that period has expired they have another three months to meet the best offer made by any other prospective purchaser. In addition, sales of plants costing more than $1,000,000 must be cleared by the Department of Justice to make sure the anti-trust laws are not violated.

On disposal of properties valued at $5,000,000 or more Congress must be consulted. But the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, designated to handle disposal of government plants, is confident these restrictions will not hold up sales to any great extent.

Soviet armored columns closed in on the key city of Harbin today as Japanese forces in Manchuria continued to resist despite an ultimatum to surrender by noon Monday. An indication that the Japanese front might be cracking was seen, however, in Russian reports that 20,000 of the enemy had laid down their arms.

The Russians drove -a three-sided assault on Harbin, Central Manchurian city of nearly a half million population and scat of large war industries. Enemy strongpoints were melting away before the relentless armored assaults of the Red army. One force captured Chalatun, a major bastion guarding the communications center of Lungkiang (Tsitishar), 75 miles southeast of Chaluntun and 170 miles from Harbin. Columns pushing forward from the west stormed Wutancheng, Kailu, Tungliao and Kaitung, the latter a defense point on the rail line leading north to Lungkiang and 180 miles southwest of Harbin, Russian naval forces operating in Eastern Manchuria captured Poll on the railroad leading south to Korea and apparently were attempting to outflank Tanguan, river strongpoint guarding Harbin, Russian troops have seized Tumen on the northern border of Korea and an early juncture of these army men fcith marines and sailors in the Korean port of Seishin, 90 miles away, was foreseen. Quinine For Civilian Use 8.

A limited quantity of quinine is being released from the Government stockpile 'for civilian anti-malarial and other essential medical needs, the War Production Board announced today. Authorizations for the present will be limited to the use of quinene for filling physicians' prescriptions and for the manufacture of capsules, tablets and other dosage forms of quinene. Deliveries will not be authorized for the use of quinene in combination with other medical ingredients. Stolen Car Local police reported this morning that they were looking for a 1934 black Plymouth sedan, license No. 30V90, and belonging to Gray Buterbaugh, of Clymer, which was stolen from the American Legion parking lot at sometime between the hours of 8 and 11 last night.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. (ff) Maj. Luang Kovid Ab- haiwong of Thailand and his entire cabinet yesterday submitted their resignations to the president of the regency council, the Japanese Domei news agency reported today in a broadcast heard by the Federal Communications Commission. The dispatch said the regency council last Thursday announced that King Ananda Mahidol had proclaimed that the declaration of war on the United States and Great Britain was "null and void and not binding on the Thai people." In another dispatch on southeast Asia, Domei reported that Viet Nam, Japanese puppet kingdom established recently from the French Indo-China protectorate of Annam, had taken steps to merge all parties in its battle to remain free of French rule. Domei reported yesterday that Viet Num would reject peace if it meant return'ng to French control.

The French press agency (AFP) reported meanwhile that "French I troops and administrators are ready 1 to take Indo-China in hand again." French forces in Ceylon and China' will be supplemented by troops now in Madagascar and France, if neces- sary. AFP said. fO To 15 Million Homes To Be Built In Decade and local authorities.

Continued from page one In predicting an unparalleled building boom, Construction Co-or- dinator Potter said in an interview that all restrictions on the industry will be removed by Christmas. Many will go in a few weeks. Potter, whose home is in Houston, took over the job of construction chief a few days ago at the request of John W.

Snyder, recon- version director. He has a long background in the real estate and building business. Potter expects shortages of lumber and other building materials to continue for awhile. But he thinks controls should be lifted so home builders will have some incentive to get architects to go to work on plans. "There'll be a little scrambling for materials, sure, but that's good for American business," Potter said.

He predicted it will be possible to build at least 500,000 homes in 1948, and after that, 1,000,000 a year. Prospects for an early revival of building "should put a big dent in unemployment," Potter said. He predicted that when "things get rolling" four to eight 'million per- sohs will have jobs in construction. (The War Manpower Commission estimated that at the start of this year there were only around 700,000 workers on construction jobs.) On the food front, government supply agencies said that army requirements already trimmed 20 per be cut back progressively over the next few months. They will be halved by next July.

Agriculture Secretary Anderson, predicting the meat rationing program may end soon, said the outlook is brightened by reduced military buying and a heavier run of cattle to market. Noting statements by labor leaders that they expect no wave of strikes, some observers surmised the administration may have had labor-management promises of cooperation. The govern men t's new wage policy was expected to bring heavy demands for pay increases. That policy allows increases without government approval when price hikes will not result. WPB's move freeing steel, copper and iluminum which had been tagged for war production means that thousands of tons of these metals will be used for vacuum cleaners, automobiles and washing machines, instead of tanks and planes.

Reconstruction finance corporation officials predicted the trickle of sales of government-owned munitions plants would incerase substantially before long. Operation of the plants by private industry will have a significant role in reducing joblessness, they said. These were other developments in the return to a peacetime footing: Premium quality gasoline is on the way back. The government authorized production again of high- test fuel for motorists. And it's all right to send a con- graulary telegram.

Or to call the telegraph company for a messenger to deliver a package. Both bans are out the window. There are no more fancy priorities for plumbing, heating and cooking equipment. If you can find it, you can buy it.

Domei News Agency told the Japanese people today that their sacred homeland would be occupied by the Allied Powers after the final "cease fire" order was given, and that they must "extend all accommodations" to the conquerors. A Japanese language broadcast beamed throughout the Orient and recorded by the FCC gave the people for the first time a foretaste of what occupation would mean, including the loss of sovereignty. "By this cease-fire agreement," Domei said, "the four powers of the United States, Great Britain, Soviet Russia and China will land on our homeland, and we must extend all accommodations to the occupying forces, such facilities as transportation, living quarters and food supplies." But, Domei added, since the Allies would not land as "combat units" the "United States forces will not directly commandeer our food supplies, living quarters and such peoples' necessities, or seize funds in the banks.

It is needless to "hold any misgivings on these points." Domei gave no hint of the source of this alleged information. It declared that "now, the active fighting carried on by both sides in the Pacific theater has come to an end" but "until the cease-fire ment is signed" it did not mean under international law "that either side has entirely withdrawn itself from the status of Japan's new Premier, meanwhile, assumed his peace government duties with orders for strict military observance of the Imperial ordsr to ground arms, but there were official and press hints of lingering Nipponese ambitions in East Asia.
