most bitter American-hate inside
Japan.
1t was not always so, however
At one time he was great friend
of American naval officers, just as
Admiral Nomura was a great friend
of FDR when Roosevelt was Assis-

Yamamoto was aide to Admiral
Togo, the great hero of the Russo
Japanese War, and shortly after
that war, U. S. Admiral Uriel Sc

to Admiral Togo. Vice Admiral Will

then young lieutenant just out
of Annapolis and Admiral Sebree's
aide
Admiral Yamamoto also was a
young lieutenant just out of the
Jap naval academy, trimming over
with enthusiasm, and apparent
friendship for Americans. He spoke
excellent English, struck up a
friendship with young Glassford.
After a full day of naval cere-
monies, Yama moto approached
Glassford with this proposition:
What's the use of your going
back to Yokohama and the fleet
tonight. Why don't you stay in
Tokyo and I'll take you to the

that Admiral Togo desires his pres

that Admiral Sebree is very anxious
to visit the club
Thus it was arranged Mel n Ell
Admiral wanted to go to the Maple

Togo thought that if Admiral Sc

be hospitable; while Sebree thought
that if Togo was anxious to have
him come, he should be polite and
accept the invitation.
A big banquet ensued, at the END
of which Admiral Togo was so in

man of tremendous stature, simply
