THE Emperor of Japan, Yoshihito,

THE Emperor of Japan, Yoshihito,
IS in immediate danger of death
Official announcement of the Mi
l,ado's death would have tremendous
bearing on world affairs, especially
the relations between Japan and the
United States
For the japanese believe that the
Mikado is descended fro the
gods that created heaven and
earth He has supreme power over
his subjects and can declare war
without consulting anyone. Cabi-
net, parliament and party leaders
have no control no say, except by his
sanction.
Hence a change of emperors would
be very important. Much will de-
pend on the whims and views of the
new emperor.
