war crime trials against japanese

Eichelberger, 9Th Army COM

At the same time he disclosed that
the 9th Army had been assigned
to 1iberate all prisoners both in its
area of Northern Honshu and in
the Southern areas which cover all
japanese home islands and For
mosa, although the Chinese will
occupy Formosa.
Discussing what would be done
with japanese who killed and tor
tured American prisoners, Gen.
Eichelberger said that while 1t was
strictly a headquarters (MarArthur)
task, those accused would be tried
on court martial basis.
Problem Is Complicated.
1T is probable that many guilty
persons may have killed themselves
by this time Gen. Eichelberger
said.
He declared it wasn't a simple
problem and probably no action
would be taken for such things as
slapping.
Pilot Officer Geoffrey Raoul Lem
priere of the Australian Air Force,
captured on Rabaul in January
1912, prepared dossier against cer-
tain japanese officers at the Ashio
camp, 90 miles from Yokohama.
Gen. Eichelberger said Gems.
Wainwright and Beebe also had con-
siderable information against in
dividual Japanese who might be
tried for war crimes.
Asked if he had any word where
war Premier Hideki TOTO was, he
said no. adding that this was a gen.
eral headquarters job but IF it were
my job I'd like to know
Japs Get Stern Orders.
Gen, Macarthur, in a stern direc-
tive to the Japanese today gave
them 48 hours In which to provide
the names and locations of all Allied
prison camps as well as prisoner
burial places.

kin, home addresses, age, sex and
physical condition must be listed
Prisoners are to receive the best
medical care. adequate shelter,
Clothing and bathing facilities
Prison camp commanders must
relinquish their authority to the
senior Allied prisoner available.
With the arrival of $50 Allied pris-
oners here by train, plane and water
today the total thus far freed was
1858.
This number was expected to be
boosted during the next two days
with the arrival of 2,635 from the
Nllgata and Kobe districts.
Rescue Work Pushed.
CThe increased tempo of the rescue
work likewise was emphasized by a
Tokyo broadcast to Japanese COM
fmanders, briefng them on the
schedules for a number of exchange
ships arriving in their areas this
week
Four groups of prisoners will be
taken aboard one of the vessels to-
day at Onohama, l30 miles north
east of Tokyo. simultaneously
seven groups of prisoners will be
brought to Yokohama by other
transportation
Tomorrow three other groups of
prisoners are to board another ex-
change boat at Shiogama Harbor
north of Onohama. A third vessel
will land at Kamaishi Harbor. north
of Shiogama, and fourth ship will
take on three groups at Omori, near
