Surplus Plants Soon to Turn Out Civilian Goods Washington Aug. 18, (JP). Hundreds of government owned war plants will be taken over by private industry during the next lew months. Government officials directing disposal of some $10,000,000,000 of surplus plants and equipment predicted today that sales and rentals up to now only a trickle will increase substantially be' fore long. These officials, anonymous at their request, forecast also that private enterprise will put these facilities into civilian production quickly enough to absorb thou 1 sands of released war workers.

They expressed confidence that peacetime uses will be found for most government war plants, "Industry undoubtedly has a lot of ideas for those plants probably a good many we haven even thought of," said one offi cial. The job of disposing of around 1000 government plants and fed' erally owned additions to private holdings had scarcely begun when the war ended. At the start of this month only 18 sales and leases had been completed. Negotiations for 11 other properties were in an advanced stage. 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 use smokeless powder plants, for example. These consist of hundreds of small buildings spread over thousands of acres. This land, it was sug gested, may be turned back to agriculture. Declaration of a plant as sur plus 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 up by Congress. U. S. Aides Expected To Hire 5000 Swiss Bern, Aug. 18, Swiss sources said today that the United States would employ from 5000 to 10,000 Swiss citizens as functionaries in the American occupation zone in Germany.

Jap Hospital Ship Brought to Port By Marine Crew Manila, Aug. 18, (P) The Japanese hospital ship Yasukuni Maru, which tried to smuggle Japanese soldiers and munitions through the Allied Southwest Pacific blockade under the insignia of the Red Cross, was brought into port here today by a Marine prize crew.

There were 1500 Japanese aboard. The hospital ship was boarded and searched by a detail from the U. S. Seventh Fleet in the Banda Sea Aug. 3.

The searching party found the supposed patients on the ship were mostly bandaged unwounded and that crates labeled "medical sup plies" and marked with the Red Cross contained arms and ammuni tion. The listless Japanese were sent to a central Luzon prison stockade wearing GI shoes and khaki shorts. The Marine guards said the ships crew and "patients" had been utterly despondent and showed no interest in events for the last "week. En route to Manila from the Banda Sea, the "patients" were unloaded at an Allied port and attempts made to clean up the ship, But, officers of the prize crew said, all attempts to remove the stench from the vessel were vain. American soldiers redeployed from the European Theatre were landing at a nearby pier while the prisoners were debarked and herd ed into the troop train.

British King Praises Troops on Victories London, Aug. 18, (JP).

The monarch also sent victory congratulations to President Tru man and to the leaders of Russia. China and France. His message to Mr.

iruman conveyed "heartfelt congratulations" on the vie tory, and pledged "that co ODera tion which has served us so well in time of war will continue in the days of peace to benefit not only our two peoples, but also tne nations of the world."

The military services havebeen taking about 17 per cent, of the Nation's food supply. Reduction, in military needs al readv has ended rationing of panned fruits and vegetables. It may permit lifting of meat ra tioning the fall, possiDiy in September. Th 5n ner rent, reduction in miiitarv food reauirements will apply until January 1 when needs will be reduced anotner cent, for the January Marcn quarter. Reauirements are expected to drop another 40 per cent, for the March June quarter and 50 per cent, for the July Septemoer neriod.

Military requirements for Oc tober, 1945, through September, 1946, will average about 42 per cent, below those of the corre sDondine average about 42 per cent, below those or tne corre sponding period of 1944 45, offi cials said. These planned reductions are in line with Government plans to release of upwards of 7,500,000 men from the armed services in the next 18 months. So far this year, Army food purchases have averaged about $400,000,000 a month. Before tne surrender of Japan, the Army had planned to buy at the monthly rate of about 000 for the remainder of 1945, The rate now will be reduced to about $240,000,000, with further cuts coming up in 1946. One of the first evidences of reduced military requirements will be Army withdrawal from the butter market in September.

The Army had planned to take about 20 per cent, of the Sep tember butter output. It now plans to take none. It built up reserves during the spring and summer season of flush produc tion. The Government soon will an nounce a reduction in set aside requirements of canned fruits and vegetables for the military serv ices and will end, probably in September, set aside orders for meat. Military purchases of poultry will be scaled down dur ing the fall marketing season.

Jap Premier Believed Able to Handle Army Pittsfield, Aug. 18. (JP) A Pittsfield missionary who spent 14 years Nagoya believes that the new Premier of Japan, Prince Naruhiko Hagashi Kuni, "a hard boiled and heavy drinking cus tomer," will be able to handle the Japanese military situation and halt fighting on all fronts. The Eev. Floyd L.

Roberts, pas tor of the South Congregational Church, said in an interview last night that he lived on the same street as the new prerier, and mat tms uncle of Emperor HirO' hito's wife is a disciplinarian who will be very impatient with Japa nese military stuffed shirts. Roberts said he believed Haea shi Kuni will have little trouble with generals, but pointed out that military leaders in smaller com mands usually do not consult their superiors before ordering an at' tack. Because of this, he added, itmav almost oecome necessary "to whisper into the ear of every buck private in the army to surrender." Don't Trust Japanese, Filipino Paper Warns Manila, Aug. 18, (JP) Emperor Hirohito's rescript was issued with "much mental reservation" and the Allies must remember "the Japanese are the most unreliable people on earth," an English language Filipino newspaper com mented editorially today. Other Filipino and Chinese Manila newspapers took similar views.

The Chinese Commercial News said care must be taken not to let the defeated Japanese forget that it was "brought on them by Japanese militarists" following a pattern from Mukden to Pearl Harbor. The Manila Courier asked if the Japanese really surrendered, since the believes they have not been made to surrender but "merely lay down their arms" for "mutual prosperity." "We shall accept her surrender but we shall demand justice for we have not forgotten," the Manila Chronicle said. shall not acquiesce to 'So sorry please' apology." Several Yanks Hurt In Street Fighting London, Aug. 18, (JP). Several Ameriqan servicemen were injured and 23 persons arrested early today after two hours of street fighting near Piccadilly circus between white soldiers and group of Negroes.

Pistols and knives were used in the melee which started with an argument between a white sol dier and a Negro civilian at the entrance of a club frequented by Negroes. Witnesses said the Negro ci vilian told the soldier: "Why don't you get back to your own damned country?" The ensuing argument soon be came violent and the Negro was joined by. others from the club. The white soldiers in turn found ready reinforcements in the throngs cf servicemen always about that area at night. Resolution Adopted Prague.
