added, however, that the supply is
not yet adequate to assure good
distribution without rationing con-
trolls.
The slaughter control program
went into effect last April when
the meat shortage became acute.
1t was designed to increase the
amount of livestock slaughtetered
in Federally inspected plants by de-
creasing the slaughter OF non-Fed-
orally inspected plants.
Meat from non-Federally inspect
ed plants cannot be shipped across
State lines. The objective of in

Only Children Pay Attention
To Yonks Occupying Tokyo
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
TOKYO, Sept. 8.-Only the chill
dren of Tokyo paid much open at
tention to American troops as they
moved in to occupy the capital of
conquered Japan today.
Groups of children on their way
to school stared at the passing line
of Americans. Some waved. Others
bowed stif1y A number held up
fingers in what appeared to be a
"V" for victory sign, but some
American experts said it was jap

The few people who were on the

Macarthur Avoids
Fanfare of Conqueror

TOKYO, Sept. s tP).-Gen. Mac
Arthur, stunning all fanfare as a
conquerer, entered Tokyo today with
fully armed troops of the 1st Cav
airy Division and officially signalized
the occupation of this war-wrecked
city with a 10-minute aag-raising
ceremony.s
The supreme commander of the
Allied powers was stern of visage
and firm of voice at the United
States Embassy grounds-within 5
minutes drive of Emperor Hirohito's
palace-as he ordered Old Glory
unfurled.
The general and his men, covering
the last mile of the long, hard road
from Australia, came as the first
foreign victors ever to enter this
heart of surrendered Japan. In their
hour of triumph, they we're all busi-
ness.
No Parade of Pomp.
There was no parade of pomp.
The word had been out that the
men would march from the Diet
Building to the Embassy.
Instead, they moved in SO unos-
tentatiously with their trucks, jeeps
and weapons carriers that the sight
of the f1ag-the one which flew
over the Capitol in Washington De-
cember 7, 1941, then in triumph over
Rome and Berlin-was the first
notice to many Tokyo residents that
tho Americans had cnnP

proud 1st Cavalry Division had a
huge sign ready, lettered list Cav
airy Divisiop-First in Tokyo" as
they waited at Chofu, on the south
west outksirts.
But they had to leave it hanging
on a tree at the roadside.
Even guidons were removed from
the armored vehicles in compliance
with Gen. MacArthur's direction for
simple entrance. An attempt OF a
group of Texans to fly the Lone Star
State flag brought sharp repri-
mand from Gen. Chase.
Get that down-no flags" he
said.
Tanks Left Outside City.
Tanks had rolled up to the out
skirts. They halted there. Gen
Macarthur chose not to bring them
in unless needed, to avoid further
damaging Tokyo's streets.
The raising of the flag over the
Embassy grounos-rather than over
a Japanese BUILDING such as the
Diet, in the gesture of an arrogant
conqueror-was impressive in its
simplicity.
Gen. MacArthurs face was OF
serious mien.
He arrived shortly before the II

Although the devastating ef-

we'll proven in Pacific opera
tions. the navy has just released
some data which shows what
they actually do. A five-inch
rocket has the explosive power
of a 155-mm. shell. A salvo
fired by plane has about the
same effect as a salvo from a
destroyers five-inch guns.
Rockets are fired without re-
coil. the plane being thus able
to stay on target. No special
installations are required for
firing The shells. They are
lighter and more easily carried
than bombs and are less ex-
penSive
Navy planes carry four rock
cts under each wing. They are
fired from the cockpit electri-
cally and are amazingly accu-
rate. When they hit, they
devastate a wide area. 1t. Tiff
