"A month has passed since Japan

a few preliminary measures to
eliminate for all time, as the Pots
dam declaration puts it, "the au-
thority and influence of those who
have deceived and misled the peo-

whether this means that We are
not going to do what we said we
were going to do, and that General
Macarthur moderate an dcau-
tious methods are leading to a
soft, that is to say an inconclusive,
peace.
There is as yet no evidence, it
seems to me. for thinking this.
There is, on the other hand, very
good reason to think that he is
being deliberate and cautious at
this stage precisely because ne

TODAY and TOMORROW
By WALTER IIPPMANN -------
Macarthur In Jdpdn

| troops for the full occupation OF
japan were in the western Pacnlc
when the Japanese government
agreed to surrender a month ago.
That is the basic explanation OF
what is happening. General Mac
Arthur is conducting a military
movement several months ahead OF
the schedule of preparations for it.
1t might be said, too, that Con-
gress and the public have not made
it easier for Macarthur to move
faster by their own pressure to de-
mobilize so fast that the efficiency
of all our forces has been consid-
erably reduced.
Until our forces are in full occu-
patton, which will still take some
time, and until the Japanese army
has turned in its arms and been
disbanded, the surrender will be
unconditional only on paper and
not yet as a matter of fact. At
this stage General Macarthur must
be the Judge of what demands ne
can make of the japanese authori-
ties and be sure of being obeyed.
For though the shooting has stop
ped. he is still in the midst of a
military operation which must be
concluded successfully before the
political operation can really be-
gin.
The fearful blunder in Korea is,
however, warning signal to the
supreme commander and to the
administration here at home to
perfect their political plans with
some of the same care and fore
thought that have gone to making
our war plans. General directives
are not enough, though for Korea,
which is a testing ground of lib

seem to have been even general

clearly, has been to get the Jap
anese Army disarmed and dis
banded as he builds up his own
forces and places them at the stra-
tegic points of the four japanese
islands. Until that was done, there
has been no use issuing political
orders which might be obeyed-
might quite conceivably have re-
suited in a fanatic rebellion, or a
prolonged guerrilla campaign in
the mountainous interior, and
the mountainous interior, and the
massacre of allied prisoners of war
in the vast reaches of the japanese
aggression.
The occupation of Japan has to
precede the reform of Japan.
Otherwise we cannot be sure OF
enforcing our terms. 1t is neces-
sary. therefore for us here at home
to realize how formidable mill
tary operation it is to occupy ia
pan. It is, as matter of fact, a
bloodless version of the invasion
Of Japan. To say that it is blood
less does not mean that it is like
landing a party of tourists. The
army has to 60 in fully prepared
for battle. It must take possession
of the points it would have had to
fight for in order to paralyze Jap
anese power to resi- t, and to make
secure its own positions and its
land and sea communications.
If General Macarthur and the
United States government were
being taken in by the meekness of
some of the japanese, they would
not be carrying out the occupation
in such a tnorough-going military
fashion.
That the procedure is slow is
too bad. But it has been unfavor-
able, and the disadvantages are a
small price to pay for not having
to invade Japan. The first landing
in Japan had been set for Novem-
ber, and it was to have been a
relatively small operation-name-
ly the seizure of the southern tip
of the southern island of Kyushu
in order to obtain close-in airfields
for the main invasion. That was
to have taken place in the Tokyo
area some months later. On this
timetable only a fraction of the
