from $685. 500 to $3,853, 500, re-

A United Press survey put the to-
tai at 102, 500 idle workers because

The big plane came down
through the clouds into brilliant

Hamilton Field runway.
The hatch was opened and the
Generals grey-thatched head pop
ped out. He took three steps down

The western defense command

nearly a full minute while on the

Then, followed by h i S chief of

pletely by surprise, as he had not

and armored vehicles came roar
ing into Their ruined capital for
Yesterdays historic flag raising.
Strange Occupation
That flag, which flew over
Washington's historic capitol on
the day of Pearl Harbor, hung
Imply today in Tokyo's humid
air after First Division cavalry
men placed it there at the climax
of one of history's strangest &C.
equations of foreign powers cap
ital.
Without fanfare or excitement,
the second squadron of the First
Division proud Seventh Regi-
ment and the 302nd Reconnais-
sance troops swept through To-
kyo's streets and threw a guard
around the American embassy.
There were few japanese in the
rags and rubble that American
bombers left of Tokyo, and they
glanced only briefly at the col
umns of armored cars, sef-pro-
PEELED guns and personnel car
riers crowded with troops.
Children on their way to school
bowed stifly o. waved. That was
the only Japanese reaction to the
unparalleled spectacle Of foreign
troops marching through their
capital.
A parade had been scheduled
but it was cancelled, possibly to
avoid excitement.
Even the divisions guidons were
not displayed as Maj. Gen. Will
liam c.. Chase jumped from a
jeep and led his first cavalry
units into Tokyo about 7 a. m.
(6 p. m. Friday, E.W.T0 by way
OF the city's southwestern out
skirts.
Tanks gathered at the perimeter
of Tokyo but did not enter tu
avoid damage to the streets.
Aside from the fact that the
battle-hardened First Cavalrymen
wore helmets and carried rifles
with fixed bayonets, the occupa-
ton OF Tokyo-to be completed to.
nlorrow-seemed more like an in
flux of tourists than a military
operation.
The troops rode in trucks and
all arrangements for their accom-
modations had been made before
their arrival. Their bivouac was
a parade ground where the EN-.
peror's own guardsmen used to
strut.
General Macarthur arrived in a
two-car convoy after refusing a
japanese offer to line the streets
with police as is done when the
emperor passes by.
At II a. M, upon his arrival at
the embassy garden, Macarthur
instructed 1t. Gen. Robert l..
Eichelberger of the U. S. Eighth
Army of occupation to have "our
country's flag unfurled."
AS it was hoisted to the top of
the pole at the chancellery, Mac.
Arthur, Eichelberger and Admiral
Halsey saluted.
While the simple, 10-minute
ceremony signified the occupation
OF Tokyo, it was done so quietly
that many of the city's oft-bombed
residents probably did not know
the Americans had arrived. No
Japanese we're present.
Elsewhere more American
troops were pouring in to augment
the occupation forces.
