them from feudalistic, war.like tradition centuries old into the Democratic pattern of the new world.
 The Japanese, on the other, are making an obvious effort to hood wink the Americans, persuade them that a real change of heart has tak- en place, and bring about an early end of occupation so they can re. vert to their old philosophy.
 Much of the news material which has been coming out of Japan Is good evidence of the Japanese plan of action. Until MacArthur clamp- ed down hard on the official news agency Domei and individual news papers, the Japanese were insolently spreading anti-American propagan. da, including false stories of rape and footing. The people were not told that they had lost the war, or even that they had surrendered. The point was hammered home that the war had been ended by the graci- ousness of the Emperor. The idea of a resurgant Japan was subtly stressed.
 Propaganda
 This propaganda was going over the air waves to the United States until MacArthur stopped 1t. At the same time, even some Allied cor- respondents unwittingly played the Japanese game by excessive enter prise in reporting for home con- sumption the whole-cloth viewpoint obvious war criminals.
 The result has been to confuse American opinion on how the Japa- nese are reacting to defeat, and what the real Issues of occupation are. Not enough emphasis has been laid on the treacherous nature of Japans leaders.
 There was considerable criticism | of MacArthurs procedure until he felt able to take somewhat sterner | measures, and explained his posi- ton. MacArthur made 1t clear that he considers his job to be military and temporary; that the long-range of Japan is Q matter of policy to be decided by Washington and the other Allied capitals. An- nouncing that he felt able to keep Japan under physical control with about 100000 regular army troops within six months, he said signif- ,antly:
 "The questions involved in this natter are entirely independent of he future Japanese politico-gov- srnmental structure on Q national md international plane. This problem is one the ultimate solu- lion whereof awaits completion of he military phases of surrender. t is one which unquestionably will pc determined upon the highest diplomatic level of the United Na- Ions.
 Political Future
 It is evidently not MacArthurs ob to undertake the future politi- al reform of Japan, which may involve control for 20 years or more. The problem may be more difficult han that of Germany, whose vest 'rn psychology the Allies under. tAnd better Yet, regarding Ger. many, one of Britains top political VeritaS, had this to ay after visit to the Reich:
 The Allies cannot hope to SC. ure sanity in European affairs un. ess they face the unpalatable fact hat they must continue to control iermany for at least 20 years after c few years we lose interest nd begin to withdraw, can see o hope"

Grace No Factor
SAYS Macarthur

ons ito brand Negro combat troops
as failures and towards, may back
of rumors that the publicized 93rd
division had been broken into port
battalions and other labor units be-
cause it's reported cowardice at
Bougainville resulted in heavy cas-
ualties in the white division next to
| it, Mr.. White said.
"In the first place the 93rd has
never been assigned as yet my
beachhead action anywhere. The
assault on Bougainville took place
late in November and early in Dec
ember in 1943. The 93rd was not
ordered to Bouganville until the fol
lowing April Even Japanese air
activities over the beach had then
been stopped to such an extent that
movies were being shown on the
beach. There were still then and
now many Japanese troops on the
loldlld do tCCnt 0OAlllIlu It-
veal but the enemy had been driven
back into the interior.
Thus the 93rd did not fail in a
beachhead action since it never
participated in one nor did Tn
white or any other color of soldier
or officer receive a pin scratch be-
cause of the 93rd. The division did
not run anywhere because there was
no need to run. Incidentally none
of the stories told against the Ne
gro division take into account the
fact. that when troops land on a
beach there is no place for them
to run except back into the ocean.
ARTILLERY COMMENDED
Instead of failing in the assign
ments given it the 25th Combat
Team of the. 93rd Division, roughly
one-third of the division, which
was the only part given combat dut
les, performed in such icreditable
fashion as to elicit high praise from
officers and enlisted personnel of
the American and 37th Divisions.
This was particularly true Of the
93rd's artillery. Brigadier General
w. G. D%unckel, commanding the A
merican artillery at Bo~ugainville,
in a written and official commend
alton, declared of the 593rd Artil-
! lery Battalion of the 93rd Division:
Your occupation and construction
of position areas has been effic-
iently accomplished, and initial re-
suits of your registrations and fire
on Japanese troop movement have
been very successful. My observ-
ers report that your adjustments
have been very accurate, a fact that
implies that your personnel has been
, well trained in the technique of the
arm and can apply that training in
its first combat service---My only
regret iS that Won did NOT iOin nc

earlier in the Battle OF Bougain-
willie. I know that in the future,
all officers and men OF this unit
will welcome, gladly, the opportun-
ity to serve with the 593rd.'
saThe End Battalion Of the 25th
Combat Team Of the 93rd was as
signed to lake three days after ar
rival in Bougainville a strongly
fortified Japanese position Of rive
concrete pill boxes. 1t did its JOB
with such efficiency and prompt
ness as to cause Brigadier General
Leonard r.. Boyd to declare that the
End Battalion's accomplishment was
'commendable even for a veteran
outfit outstanding for a unit in It's
first action
The only incident revealed in the
Army record which could possibly
come under the heading of criticism
is the act brought out in Mr..
Whites report On the disorganiza-
ton which wollowed a directive Civ
en- BY a white company commander
who ordered his three Negro lieuten
ants to "deplory their men around
the inside of the horseshoe" When
the officer assigned to the further
most point with fifteen men found
themselves outnumbered and sur
rounded he asked instructions by
radio of his company commander
and was told to dig in and remain
there 1.-The officer" say White.
Lieutenant Oscar t. Davenport Of
St. Louis, Mo-. and eleven of his
fifteen men were killed. Disorgan-
ization followed as the company
commander LED the retreat to the
command post in the rear"
NEW COMMANDER
"A better day for the 93rd is fore
east in the appointment of Major
General Harry H. Johnson, new
commanding general responsible
for the units combat efficiency.
HE is doing everything possible"
stated Mr.. White, ITO stop the prac
tice Of assignment to the card Of
white officers who are prejudiced
against Negroes or who failed in
other divisions. He opposed pro
motion Of such men over competent
officers already in the division, es-
pecially colored officers.
THE card is General Johnson's
ed and led overseas the End Calvary
Division early in 1914"
