Jupun's Evil Genius

WnlJe DearQ mas just cleo IN Japan
at the ripe age of ninety. . He was
Mitsuru Toyama, a personality little
known abroad until recently yet
long regarded at home as so power
full and dangerous that the japanese
press often feared to print his name,
referring to him by asterisks which
all would understand. This redoubt-
able individual was for generations
the incarnation of all that was worst
in Japanese political life. He rep
resented the tradition of violence
and assassination which has always
vitiated Japan's domestic politics
and he likewise played major part
in those schemes for world dominion
which eliminated in the treacherous
blow at Pearl Harbor. The Infamous
BLACK Dragon Society" which he
headed spread it's tentacles of espio-
mage and terrorism throughout al
most the entire world.
1t is interesting to note that Nit
suru Toyama's life exactly spans the
whole period of modern Japan, be-
cause he was born the very year in
which Commodore Perry opened the
former Hermit Empire to inter-
course with the Western world. His
youth was passed in the turbulent
transition epoch between the end of
the Shogunate and the establish
ment of a centralized government
run partially on Western lines. To-
yama early became "soshi," which
means political bully using gang
ster methods including murder. His
proficiency in this sinister profess
sion soon made him gang leader,
serving various political masters.
From childhood he showed an in
tense hatred of foreigners, and as
soon as Japan had the rudiments of
modern army and navy, he agi-
tated for warlike expansion abroad.
AS far back as the later 1905 he was
arrested for taking part in a con-
spiracy designed to force the gov
ernment into war with Korea,
though his political "pull' was big
enough to ensure his speedy release
without trial. Naturally, he was
prime mover in the war against
China of 1894 and of the war against
Russia decade later. Those vic
torious conflicts greatly increased
his prestige and power. Also, he
personally prof1ted by rich mining
concessions as his part Of the loot.
When Japan began to extend its
influence over China, disorganized
by the revolution against the Man
chuS, Toyama was the generalissimo
of the army of drug peddlers, brothel
keepers, Smugglers and swindlerS
that swarmed into China from
Japan under cover of extra-terri-
torial immunities, to take advantage
of the turmoil.
The apex of Toyamas sinister
career came in the quarter-century
between the two world wars. His
Black Dragon Society struck down
some of the highest figures in politi-
cal life, inspired the rising genera
ton of fanatics in the officer caste,
and paved the way for the military
dictatorship which now rules Japan
in its supreme struggle for limitless
domination. He has now died just
before his country has reaped the
whirlwind which he and his ilk have

Nazi Troop Distribution
By Mai. Georpe Fieldins Eliot

rison (Which has apparently been re-
placed by mere police troops; Norway
and Finland remain unchanged; Italy
has been somewhat reinforced zap
parently from the Balkans.
In Yugoslavia and Greece, however
the figures suggest an evacuation may
be in progress and this accords witt,
all available information from that part
OF the world. OF the l8 divisions re-
naming there, the division still in
Crete and the divisions in Greece are
probably lost; the fate of the II divi-
sions in Yugoslavia is problematical,
but good many may get back north.
AS to the western front, we should
not hastily draw the conclusion that
the 40 divisions available there are
half new troops. The proportion is
morely likely to be third. for it seems
likely that the Germans may in fact
have sent few new divisions to the
Russian front and replaced them in
the west with seasoned divisions from
the east. This also accords with front
reports. Also there are in the west
fnot included in the tables given above)
number Of divisions which are In
course Of training, the cadres being
provided by survivors of the 7th and
18th Armies.
There are probably 20 such divisions,
but they cannot really be called divi-
sions yet. They represent Germany's
last reserve Of manpower, and to use
that reserve she must have time. II
these troops have to be employed now
they will wither away in matter Of
weeks. for they are virtually unframed
and the cadres are very weak-not
enough to leaven the loaf by any
means.
It should further be noted that at
least five and perhaps aSmany as eight
OF the good German divisions in the
west are cut of in the western part
OF the Netherlands and the Dutch
Islands, and these divisions NAV very
possibly be lost, especially II the
weather IS anything like good enough
to permit the Allied air forces to keep
their communications under fire.
One subject for speculation which
the tables given above suggests Is the
Italian campaign. The Germans appear
70 be willing to keep on feeding rein-
forcements into this area, both in the
form Of additional divisions and re.
placements for those already there. It
Is to be hoped that some members Of
the present German high command
will survive to write his memoirs and
tell US why this has been 90.

Number of German Divisions Of all types:
Total

These figures will bear careful
analysis.
In the first place, some IS divisions
have disappeared altogether: Almost
a quarter of the total as of May l.
Where have they gone?
The answer is to. be found In the
tremendous totals ofsprisoners captured
in Russia and France. We know that
at least Is German divisions were wiped
out in the break-through Of the former
"Fatherland Line" in White Russia, IL
were lost in Bessarabia, Is were de-
stroyed in the fighting in France, up
to August Is. and were cut on in the
Atlantic ports and the Channel Islands.
That accounts for 66 OF the missing
divisions.
But it seems probable that Is to 80
additional German divisions have been
wiped out as well-some in Northern
France after August Is, at least three
in Southern France, at least three on
the South Russian front, and several in
Italy. That means that the Germans
have created about 20 new divisions out
Of the proceeds Of their general mobili-
zation, which began late in July.
Some Of these new divisions have
been encountered on the western
front and they seem to be pretty poor
stun as far as training goes: though
they fight hard, as one front report
puts 1t, they also die fast
There does not appear to have been
any major redistribution Of forces. A
few divisions have been shifted here
and there. but substantially the east
ern front has what 1t had on May /,
less divisions destroyed: the western
front likewise, plus the bulk OF the
new divisions and the Denmark gar

BEAUTY HINTS

The mirror is a very trust
worthy friend. 1t tells the truth.
Sometimes very bitter, but STILL
the truth! Gaze long and intent
ly into its unflattering depths,
for there lies a message for you,
there you may learn what your
closest companions hesitate to
tell you, that perhaps you are
already showing the fine line
Of worry or age, that you are
growing older. Gather together
the little aids that set matters
right and begin at once the work
of repair, With cleansing, slim
ulants and foods, you can do
much to bring yourself back to
the line of beauty. Don't bury
your head in the sand and dream
that you are a peerless beauty,
but face facts and be wise. Eter-
nal vigilance is the price Of beau
ty.
