MANILA, Dec. 5.-A five-general
American military commission re-
cessed to ponder the fate of 1t
Gen. Tomoyuki Yamashita today
after hearing final summations in
which the prosecution demanded the
death penalty and the defense
pleaded for American Justice
acquittal."
It promised verdict Friday,
Maj. Robert M. Kerr, Portland
Greg, chief prosecutor, declared that
"in view of the aggravated nature
of the crimes and in view of the
measures of the crimes, we recon-
mended that the sentence, If death
be carried out by hanging"
Maj. Kerr charged that every
reasonable doubt has been shat
tered by devastating witnesses
against the Japanese Army COM
mander, who is accused of condor.
ing innumerable atrocities by his
troops in the Philippines.
There is no doubt of his respon.
sibility and negligence, Maj. Kerr
said in asking a verdict of guilty
and the death sentence.
Col. Harry Clarke. concluding
Yamashita defense arguments
asked the commission to "exemplify
the concepts and standards of Amer
lean justice, the keystone of Amer
ican democracy, by returning a
finding of not guilty."
The commission heard more thar
200 witnesses and received more
than 100 documents from both sides
in the 32-day hearing.
Defense attorneys closely followed
this argument:
/. Yamashita did not permit afro
cities
2. He did not condone, nor did he
know of, their commission
Capt. Adolph Reel, Boston. Mass,
touched on charges of i'll treatment
of prisoners of war and internees
at Santo Tomas and Los Banos
camps and of mass executions at
Palawan. He argued that there was
no connection of these instances and
Yamashita's command; that in each
instance other commands were re-
sponsible.
Capt. Reel concluded:
when we judge him (Yamashita)
We must put ourselves in his place
and say unless we are ready to
plead guilty before the world to the
charge of hypocrisy, to the charge
that we sublimely succumbed tc
mob desire for revenge, then we
must find Yamashita not guilty"
Yamashita, visibly moved, took
Capt. Reel by the shoulders and said

Loan Of $50 Million
Made France; British
Credit Still Debaiiedd
Hy the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Frances rehabilitation pro-
gram was bolstered today by
$3.50, 900 900 loan from the United
States as Anglo-American nego-
tiators sought early agreement
on a credit about seven times as
large for Great Britain.
French negotiations with the Ex-
port Import Bank ended success
fully when Ambassador Henri Bon
net signed a contract enabling his
country to use the fund to purchase
goods requisitioned when lease-lend
was in effect.
Meanwhile, British and American
officials entered the 18th week of
their conversations, optimistic that
they were close together on the
terms for a loan of $500, 900. 900 to
s4 900 ,ooo,o 900.
A British official described the
conversations as mot quite settled
yet" but added that differences in
outlook were being steadily re-
duced." s.-
To Repay in 80 Years.
France pledged to repay her loan
within 80 years at 23s per cent in
terest. Indications are that Britain
will pay about per cent over So
year period, with special provisions
canceling interest charges in depres-
sion years.
The contract signed yesterday
stipulates that Frances loan must
be spent entirely in the United
States for American products.
Britain probably will be allowed to
spend her money anywhere, because
of her heavy debt to members of the
empire and other nations in the
sterling bloc area
British Debt Factor.
Most of the last-minute talk be-
tween American and British officials
centered around the question of
what Britain should do about the
estimated 5000, 900 900 she owes to
these countries.
| British officials were reported to
be seeking complete freedom of
action in determining whether. and
how individual creditors would be
willing to scale down the size, of
Britain's Indebtedness.
| American officials were inclined to
regard Britain's sterling debt as
strictly British problem. but in
sisted they needed some indication
of future British plans.
