Laugh Il Off,
Jap Suggests
Gay General Urges
I Sporting Handshake

STOCKHOLM, Aug IL (UP)-
Mai. Gen. Makato Onodera, Japa-
nese military attache in Stock
holm, said in an interview today
that the atomic bomb was the
main reason for Japan'S capltula-
tion offer and suggested that the
Allies now shake hands with Japan
as if they had played a tennis
match.
Onodera insisted he was mot
speaking as a general because
defeated generals shouldn't talk"
His views were those of Mr..
Onodera, he said.
ENJOYS OWN WIT
The japanese attache often in
terrupted himself 10 laugh at his
own remarks. His biggest laugh
came after he said. in the future
the United States and Japan will
fight only on the golf course"
Onodera, short and lively dis
played a row Of protrudiHg teeth,
but betrayed no physical sign OF
emotion except for an occasional
nervous twitch
He thought that in view of the
present military situation peace IS
most appropriate solution" and
said "the peace negotiations were
speeded up by the atomic bomb
rather than by Russian entry into
the war.
SHOWS NO REGRETS
Onodera, who participated in
the war in central China in 1898
and 1899, attached 10 Field Mar
shall HataS' staff, showed no regret
for Japan's aggreSsionS. War he
defined as sporting match
mingled with heroism.
He regretted that the atomic
bomb had revolutionized warfare.

IF YOU HAVE fruits In your

Watch at Harvest Time for Fruit Diseases

Control of the disease includes
hand picking and careful disposal
OF all infected fruit Spraying
with Bordeaux mixture Is another
control measure, the number of
sprays and the time Of first ap-
pncation depending largely upon
weather conditions.
Extremely important as a con-
troll measure Is general sanitation

This should include removal Of al

NEGROES IN COMMAND

WASHINGTON, July 10 (ANP)
A complete transition in the COM
plexion of the personnel identified
with the Goldman Field air force
base and the 477th Composite
group stationed there is being eff
fected under the command of Col.
Benjamin 0. Davis, Jr., it is
learned here.
Col. Davis assumed command of
the group on June Fl and of the
base on July l. Immediately after
these transfers of authority had
been made, white officers holding
down command and administrative
posts at Goldman began being shift
ed to other assignments, at Fort
Knox and elsewhere.
Already substantial number of
Negro officers from the Tuskegee
Army airfield have arrived at Cod
man and have taken over admins
trative positions formerly held by
whites. Others are expected to fol-

Milton Romeo" Shockley, and

tant role that runs all through the

of a chief petty officer.
Other men expected to be as

Martin Wilkins, Napoleon Whiting

other directional duties are expected
to be assigned to George Webb.

Mildred was chosen for an
bit, but the other girls are
to be use in various at

Negro WACs numbering 80 ar
rived at the field also and are now
handling the clerical work for the
base and the group. These jobs
were formerly held by white civil
ians in many instances. Col Davis
is reported to favor the use of as
much military personnel as possi-
BILE. An even larger number of
WACs are expected to follow the
first ones.
The table of organization at God
man still calls for a complement
that included lieutenant colonels
and majors. 1t is to be expected
that qualified Negro officers will
not fill those ranks and carry the
responsibilities that go with the
jobs.
