CHUNGKING, China, Feb. O.
Two defeats at Changsha-in which
the Chinese claim 100000 Japanese
fell-have proved too much for the
Japanese commander, Gen. Korech-
ika Anami, Chinese reports said yes
terday, and the sword-rattling little
general has killed himself.
Whether he committed true hara-
kiri in the traditional manner Of
Japanese noblemen and warlords or
chose some less conventional man
ner Is not certain.
Gen.. Anami commanded the in
vaders in the second and third bat
ties for Changsha, which turned into
debacles. The Chinese said 56,944
Japanese were killed or wounded
after the invaders were chased from
the central Human province city last

Ing the field, he was director OF per-

To have fulfilled to the letter the
tradition of formal suicide, Emperor
Hirohito would have sent the gen.
eral q jeweled dagger with q mes
sage couched In gracious terms,
suggesting that he die. A cere-
monial dias would have been built
8 to 4 inches higher than the floor
Of" his abode, covered with q rug
of rich red felt.
Then dressed In q special cere-
monial dress, the general, with his
second, would have taken his place
on the dais, surrounded by a semi
circle Of friends and officials. When
the weapon was handed him. the
general would have made many
obeisances to the Emperor, and
then would have plunged the dagger
into his left side below the waist,
drawing it slowly across to the
right.
The bloody dagger then would
have been taken to the Mikado as
proof Of the generals atonement.
None knows though-the general
may have shot himself.

Ludwi g Wants
Long Occupation
OF Germany

Los Angeles (JPS)--Emil Lud-
wig, noted German biographer,
wants Germany occupied by an
army of soldiers and an army of
school teachers after the war, to
assure the world that Germany as
q world menace will cease to ex-
list.
Ludwig stressed that the occu-
patton should be a long one and
that neither army should be COM
posed of any Germans. Asserting
that Hitler is Germany" the BIZ
ographer stated that I'VE can eff
fectively protect ourselves against
the war passion of the German
people only by taking out of their
hands for a certain time three
things left to them in the Yer
sailles treaty-arms, education
and government. With peace" he
added, every weapon inside the
German frontiers, every gun in
the hands of a soldier or a police
man, should be carried by a nom
German"
Further expanding his theory,
the writer declared that "educa-
ton must fall into the hands of
non-Germans who can speak Ger
man. Religion, history, philosophy
all teach principles foreign to the
German character and can only be
infused gradually-tolerance to-
ward other races and acknowl-
edgement that the spirit is super
ior to force.

The theme of Mr.. Shertok's adj
dress stressed the likelihood of a
prolonged war instead of a quick
decision arising out of General
Rommeps present stand at the
gates of Alexandria. He urged
that the Jews be given every OPP
portunity during this period to
make the maximum contribution
to victory.
Whatever the outcome of the
battle at the gates of Alexandria, %
said Mr.. Shertok, "the fate of the
Middle East will not be decided in
a matter of days. The weight OF
this part of the world in the gen.
eral conflict is far too great.
Control CT the Suez Canal, Pales-
tine and the oil fields must pro-
foundry affect the course of the

There is good ground to be-
lieve that all the power of the

this point. Reinforcements will
now flow increasingly for the ire
mendous battles to be fought.

hood of an immediate decision.

! HAVE been talking about the saving of scarce

servation that is just directly important, though
the materials you save aren't in themselves scarce.
Cotton Goods. for instance. There is plenty of
cotton in sight, but by no means plenty of cotton
mills, of the other resources that help produce
cotton cloth So every time you discard sheet or
dress unnecessarily, you use up in replacing it not
just cotton, but whole string of things spinning
and weaving capacity at mills needed for goods
fuel and lubricants for textile machinery steel and
machine making capacity to keep the mills repaired;
