 Route
 En route, the planes will pas! over Nakano, Takara and Tori is lands in the Dyukyus, Tokyo said Macarthur already has announced tIht American fighter planes vii escort the Japanese aircraft from Kyushu.
 At Ie, the Japanese emissaries will transfer to an American plane for the flight to Manila.
 The Japanese note said that the Japanese aircraft will fly from Kyu- shu to Ie at 5000 to 5000 feet and circle the landing field at 10000 feet or below cloud layer until joined by the American escort.
 It also gave details of the Jap anese aircraft's radio call letters for communication with Ie airfield and escorting American planes.
 The Japanese flight originally had ben set for yesterday, buA Tokyo pleaded for more time and MacAr- thur consented. When the Japanese began pickering over the exact duties of the mission. however, Mac Arthur brusquely ordered yesterday that the emissaries should proceed without further delay"
 More Arrangements
 At Manila, arrangements were proceeding speedily for the arrival of the Japanese delegation. If, as planned, the American plane takes of from Ie with the mission imme- diately after the delegates arrival, they should arrive at Nichols Field on the outskirts of Manila about [ p. m. tomorrow Go a. n., EWT.)
 The Japanese vii be taken imme- diately to their quarters in a large apartment building in Manila, but 1t appeared unlikely that the surren der conferences will begin before Monday morning.
 Pull military courtesy and pro- tection will accorded the emissaries in accordance with international re- Quirements. Once they have been given the Allied terms, they will be rushed back to Japan as fast as pos- Ghlc in order to clear the way for &Ae actual signing of the terms.
 3 Advisers
 The principal Japanese delegate wiil be accompanied by three ad- v,sers, one each from the Army, Navy and Air Forces. Macarthur specified the latter should have knowledge of airf1elds in the Tokyo area. hint that first American troops may move into the enemy capital by air.
 British, Chinese and Australian missions already have arrived at ElacArthur's headquarters for dis cussions. Others were expected from Russia, France and the Netherlands.
 Meantime, other Japanese mis- slans - members of the Imperial family - were telling Japanese tsoops in Manchuria and China oi the Epreror's cease-fire orders. The missions left Japan yesterday and II probably will take another four CT live days for them to reach all units.

but a Japanese battleship was sunk by an American sub in November, 1914, at night. This was believed to be the Kongo.
 Aircraft carriers-On Dec. ', 1941, the Japanese had seven aircraft carriers. Since that time they have built six or eight carriers and about six light carriers. They now have approximately five or six af all types left, of which three are prob ably damaged (two possibly seri- ously). At least 15 have been sunk or put out of action. Six were sunk by Navy planes and Subma- rines in 1942 and nine in 1914.
 Heavy cruisers-On Dec. T, 1941, the enemy had 18 heavy cruisers. They did not add to this category during heSwar. Today all but one, two or possibly three have been sunk or put out of action.
 Light cruiSerS-the Japanese had about IT light cruisers and three lightly armed training light cruis- CTS at the beginning fthe war. They built only four or five during the war and the spokesman said he would be surprised if they have two or three left.
 Destroyers-The Japanese start ed the war with about 100 destroy CTS and built an additional 70 or 80 during the war. The spokesman said he would be surprised if they have 40 left.
 Submarines-On Dec. ?, 1941, the Japanese had between 30 and 90 submarines and they built about 100 during the war. They may have from 50 to 60 left.

 Secret Until Now

The Navy report requested by Walsh was completed last year but was marked top secret" and not published. A similar "top secret Army report was completed at the same time.
 Shortly after the official investi- gations were finished the services is- sued statements asserting that on the basis of evidence then available no courts-martial would be held for Adm. Husband E. Kimmel and It. Gen. Walter Short. Pearl Harbor commanders on December ', 1941.
 Earlier, a report by commission headed by former Supreme Court Justice Owen J. Roberts branded Kimmel and Short guilty of derelic- tion of duty. The Roberts report was accepted by the late President Roosevelt and both men were re- lieved of their commands have not been reinstated. though both have requested public hearings.

Communists Weakened

 Norway is one of the few vest ern nations which has, agreed to fusion. Negotiations are under way in Denmark, Belgium and Holland, in Italy, despite the efforts of Pie- tro Nenni, socialist vice-premier, National Council of the Italian So- cialist party recently decided by a 70 per cent vote to accept the prin- ciple of Fusion. Since there are eight Socialists for every Commun- ist in Italy, Fusion would allow leadership to remain in Socialist hands.
 Holland, seat of the second In- ternational, is overwhelmingly So- cialist. Belgium shows no desire for Fusion, nor does Luxembough. Ger man Socialists have approached French Socialists and have also tried to contact the new British Labor government to insist upon their political independence. Ger man Communists are having a hard time living down the many years of unfavorable propaganda at the hand of Joseph Goebbels.
 Paris and London cannot hope to engage in political conflict in Poland, Czechoslovakia or the Bal- kan States, but are in position to keep Western Europe and per- haps Germany aligned with trans itional Socialism.
 Influence Spain
 The French Socialists action is likely to influence the restoration of the Spanish Republic. Leon Blum has hopes of clear-cut Socialist majority in the October elections which would bring a Socialist premier and cabinet. Such a gov- ernment would favor Indalecio Prieto and his followers over Liar go Caballero or Alvarez Del Vayo if the Spanish Republican move ment shifts its activities from Mexi- co City to France in the event that the Cortes cannot find a quorum in Mexico and a premier is not named in succession to Dr. Negrin. French Socialists can be expected, however, to approve and support any provisional Republican govern ment that the refugee Spanish Cortes might establish in Mexico City.

(COnClnueQ rom Page U of Yuki, Rashin and Seishin, 90 100 and 140 miles south of Vladi- vostok. The new seaborne drives apparently were aimed at expand ing the foothold and thrusting in- land to seal off the base of the Korean peninsula.
 Others Attack
 Almost 500 miles to the West, other Soviet forces struck hard to- ward the Yellow sea coast in a bid to complete the envelopment from that direction.
 The southern wing of Marshal Rodion Y. Malinovsky's trans-Baikal army captured the Jehol province city of Chihfeng, 150 miles west of the seacoast, after lightning, 120-mile advance from the outer Mongolian border.
 A thrust to the sea in that sector would cut off the Japanese in Man. churia from their forces in China.
 Malinovsky's northern wing made somewhat slower progress in its head-on drive for. Harbin, advarc- ing 20 miles to take the railway town of Kaitung, 210 miles southwest of Harbin.
 Many Prisoners
 The bulk of the 10000 enemy prisoners captured yesterday appar- ently were taken on that sector, where the Japanese were believd to f1o xryitI15y-o their main forces behind rear guard of Manchurian puppet troops.
 At the opposite end of the Man. churian' assault arc, the first Far Eastern army rolled ahead several miles west and southwest from the maritime provinces, capturing three minor road junction towns-Poli, Mingtua and Tumin. Poli is 180 miles east of Harbin.
 Simultaneously, the second Far Eastern army driving south from the Siberian frontier moved 12 1-2 miles past the river city of Kiamusze on both sides of the Sungari river.
 Moscow dispatches said confusion was spreading through the Japanese ranks, heightened by a flood of cease-fire orders from Tokyo which the Kwantung army's high com- mand apparently was ignoring.
 Tough Fighting
 Moscow accounts indicated that the tough fighting core of the Kwantung army in eastern and cen- tral Manchuria and along the Kor- can coast still was a long way from quitting.
 Front dispatches to the official Soviet government organ Izvestia said the Japanese were battling fer ociously at many points, using the same treacherous tactics their com- radeS in the Picific employed against the Americans.
 Izvestia said the now-familiar stories were pouring in of Japanese

 Chiang's crack new First Army of veterans of Burma was as- signed the task of taking over Can ton, first of the big Chinese cities surrenderd by the Japanese.
 Ocupied Since 1889
 Canton is the largest strictly Chinese city in South China cap tured by the Japanese. It is ex- ceeded in size in that area only by the former British Crown colony of Hong King. It was occupied by the enemy October 21, 1888.
 The northern cities of Shanghai and Peiping also probably soon will be entered by Chinese troops. pos sibly flown in by American planes. Underground radios said Chinese victory celebrations had begun in both cities without Japanese inter- ference.
 The formal surrender of all Jap anese forces in China probably will be signed at the Chihkiang air base in western Human province immedi- ately after Gen. Douglas Macarthur supervises the signing of general surrender.

 Tokyo hinted repeatedly, however. that the end of the fighting in Manchuria and Korea was immi- nent. Enemy broadcasts said an im- perial messenger was expected to reach Kwantung army headquarters today with a personal cease-fire order from Hirohito.

 About 5000 jobs are available at the U. s. Rubber Co. at the present time. The Naugatuck Chemical Go. and the Eastern Malleable Iron Go. have orders for about 50 workers each, while mills in the city need about 300 employees at once. Scores of additional mill jobs are expected to be opened during the coming week.
 The big three brass plants and the U. s. Time Corp, which faced the largest war contrac cancellations, are expected to start re-hiring as soon as reconversion work is par tially accomplished. The WING has estimated that the major part of the reconversion task may be com- pleted in six weeks.

 Grants Costly
 Due to the fact that only two Child Care Centers were operated throughout 1945 the budget for these facilities shows only 20,809 spent out of the original appropria- tion of $69,743, which is less than one-third. And child care revenues fees and government grants-have contributed greatly towards the ex- pense of operating the centers this year.
