FOUR DOWN

Admiral Shimada is the fourth top
Japanese naval officer to be dismissed
or disappear since the beginning of
the war.
Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, com

who was said to have boosted once

White House, met mysterious death
repeatedly in a plane accident-in

Mineichi Koga, also met mysterious
again repeatedly in a plane ac-
cident-in April, 1914.
Then there was Admiral Osami Ma
