6PEPORT from TOXIC is the
III long g-awaited book of for
mer Ambassador TO Japan Jo-
seph c. Grew, who naturally has
no illusions about the japanese
and who speaks with authority.
In his F'oreword. Mr.. Grew
sums up our great need-and
also our great psychological de-
ficiency-when he says, Know
your enemy"
In others words, II we As a
nation do not adopt more real
iStic view of tAe-~efld We tive
in we will be Pearl Harbored
many times.
The fundamental and irrecon-
cilable difference between the
United States and japan, as Mr.,
Grew points out, is that we be-
lieve in free and equal treatment
of all peoples and the Japs are
totalitarian by nature.
They also are, like the Ger
mans, messianic.
The gist of Mr.. Crews book
is that,
Utter ruthlessneSs is the chief
Characteristic of the Japanese
war effort.
In his first chapter, Return
from Japan" Ambassador Grew
contrasts this ruthlessness with
the placid assumption of many
Americans that Japan would
prove a push-over.
First and foremost AmbasSa-
dor Grew, therefore, calls for
the greatest national effort in
our history.

Victim Of Own Gun

NEWTON, Ga, Dec. 2l.-Tram-
nell Scott, 56, recently deposed
president of the Southern Baseball
Association, was found dead near
here yesterday from a gunshot
wound received while he was hunt
ing alone.
A coroner's jury returned a ver-
dict that he came to his death with
elf-infiicted gunshot wounds" and
Sheriff Claud Screws said he was
hunting at the time for turkey he
had wounded the day before but
had been unable to find.
Scott came here several days ago
as the guest of Robert w. woodruff,
and with others at Woodruff's plan
tation, had participated in the Sat-
urday turkey drive.
Veteran Of World War.
Before retiring Saturday night, he
told of having wounded the turkey
and of having been unable to locate
it, announcing plans to arise early
and go back for it, When he failed
to return several hours after the
breakfast hour, a search was started
for him, and one of the plantation
workers found the body nearly three
miles from the house near the tur-
key ground. Tracks over slippery
ground aided the finding.
Scott, who was with the 328th In
fantry, 164th Brigade, in World
War I and rose to the rank of
major, had served for the past five
years as president of the Southern
Association. Earlier this month,
however, his contract was not re-

in Atlanta on a train due to arrive
in Chicago in time for him to pre-
side at the meeting, but the train
was late. Directors went on with
the meeting, some members contact
ing Evans and persuading the ma
jority to hire him.
Scott arrived while later dinner

leagues was under way and took a
place. A tense moment followed
when he was informed Evans had
been named to succeed him.
A native of Dalton, Ga, Scott
