For six months, the Japs held Robert BelIaire prisoner in a Tokyo lnternment camp. They brought great pressure to bear on him, in the hope that he would serve as their radio voice, direct ing propaganda against the United States. Bellaire headed United Press bureaus in Shanghai and Tokyo, and is we'll known as a writer and lecturer. Here he presents his views on the pOssi- bilities of permanent peace with Japan.

of the real thing. Through Is
months packed with high-speed
training activity he worked, stud
led and waited for one thing -
marching orders.
An order came, but not the one he
expected. Major Leclaire was re-
called to Canada for training pur-
poses. His promotion to lieutenant
colonel on his return failed to dull
the disappointment. There were
further promotions. At 43 the
ex-gunner of the last war be-
came brigadier of this one.
"Of it, but not in it." the feeling
persisted. Dieppe, later the vivid
North Africa show, and other vio-
lent actions added to that feeling.
In Canada, Brigadier ]. A. Leclaire
was just plain unhappy, with an un-
happiness that one day eliminated
in an open demonstration.
Wet Me Out Of This''
The result is reported in an official
army release: "At his own request
he was allowed to resign his COM
mission so that he might re-enlist
in the ranks for overseas service.
Private Leclaire, ex brigadief,
sailed for England. Soon he was
headed for the Mediterranean.
Twelve weeks from his resignation
he was in action in Sicily.
The army knows a soldier when
it sees one. This Private Leclaire,
for instance. Certain amount OF
ability there. Better give him stripes.
See what he's made Of.
Whatever it was the army want
