Chinese Would Hang Hirohito, But State Department Regards Him As Puppet Of Militarists

been doing-he would have been as- sassinated or deposed. His 11-year- old son would have replaced him. Actual ruler then would be re- gent who would help to prosecute the war.
 SHINTOISNI MUST GO
 It is the institution of god- -Em- peror, and the general public be- lief in the institution, that must be destroyed before any semblance of liberalism and democracy can even begin to arise in Japan. In the pro- cess Hirohito presumably will go, but his departure will be only an incident in the long, arduous task of eradicating state Shintoism in Japan. We can approach that task with clear conscience because Shin toism is not religion in the ociden- tai sense.
 Presumably the Japanese will fight more fiercely than ever if they believe we intend to destroy the Emperor idea, ut Hirohito himself or any other individual will be pure ly incidental. Such fanatical added resistance might cost many Allied lives and dollars.
 The question we must face, ap- parently, is whether we are willing to pay that added price now, in hope that thus we can avoid an- other and even more disastrous war in the Orient at some future time.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-06-05

that if the Emperor idea were des- troyed anarchy would follow in Japan.
 Others equally well schooled in Nipponese politics are convinced that until the Emperor idea is cut by the roots, over a period that might involve a generation of mili- tary domination by the Allies, Ja- pan can not be trusted at all. So long as the god-Emperor remains a religious obsession among Japs, so long will the institution be used by militarists to promote their dis turbing projects.
 But where does this leave Hiro- hito? Will it help, or hinder, if we seek to destroy him now, or if we agree to China's demand that he be executed after the war as Asiatic War Criminal Number One?
 Experts say that Hirohito is es- sentially Weakling. If he were not, had believed firmly in peace-if he had so much as declined to deliver rescripts supporting what Japan has
