contact with the western world.
Undoubtedly, the Japanese knew
after Potsdam that the Russians
would come In on the eve OF victory
to be in on the kill. That was in
evitable. And the Russians did
! come in five days before the end
late enough SO that 1t did not hurt:
early enough to get some benefits.
What the Japanese could not know
was who would reach them first,
the Russians or the Americans.
Americans are a rough but good
natured folk. They will bomb a
country and then send in hundreds
OF millions OF dollars to feed the
dispossessed population. They will
fight to a finish and then srater-
nize With the enemy, particularly
the young ladies upon whom will
be showered the largesse OF a be-
nevolently reared people. Not only
that, the japanese saw how we con.
quered Italy and then became that
country's defender. II is smarter
always to gamble on the assump-
ton that in due course, Americans
will forget politics and hates and
pursue q doctrine OF live and let
live.
The Russians are different. They
are heavy-footed. Wherever they
come, they stay. It is astonishing
to read so-called experts and to
listen to that curious breed OF re-
tailers called radio commentators
speaking OF the Russians taking
back their own Port Arthur, Dari-
en-. the Chinese Eastern Railway,
etc. Actually, none OF this was Rus
sian. They stole most OF 1t from
China and held 1t for little while,
when the Japanese stole 1t from
them. But it was Chinese, not Rus
sian.
And the Russians always play
politics. Whether Czarist Russia or
Soviet Russia, the Russian devo:es
himself to politics. The State Is
everything and the people are just
a narod, a mass, who should be
grateful that they are permitted
to live and serve the State. And
the Russians play politics not only
in their own country bu: in all
countries and not only through
their own nationals but through ma
tives whom they either convert to
themselves or bride into treachery.
There has for years been a Com.
munist Party in Japan. 1t used to

Russia, but sometimes came to
China. / met him once and have

CHAPTER TwENTY-NINE

UNDER THE line Of supple pop
lars a lacy pattern OF sunlight and
shadow fell across the brown dirt
road. Terry and Ran rode their
horses in silence.
Leaving the cool protection Of
the estancla trees and coming out
to open fields, the sun was hot on
their backs. Stretching boundlessly
to the west, the sea OF wire grass
and thistle rippled in the wind. The
line Of the distant horizon was I'M
broken except for legion OF wind
mills that marched like gray skele-
tons to meet the sky.
Several times, as they rode side
by side, Ran threw a furtive glance
toward Terry. He noticed that the
laughter had gone out OF her eyes.
He noticed. too, how lovely she was
in the sunlight. A bright yellow
scarf around her head, wisps OF cop

where the scarf didn't cover. The

Your Health
Fatigue May be
Danger Signal.
Find The Cause

By HERMAN NJ. SUNDESEN. NJ. I
MANY persons who come into
the doctors Office have just one
complaint. They are fatigued or
tired out. They have no pep. They
have 10 drive themselves 70 go to
work. All such people want their
vitality restored over night, but
this is not always an easy matter,
for there are many causes for IA
tigue, and until the cause is found
and removed the fatigue is likely
10 remain, and even then it takes
time to restore them TO full health.
Unfortunately, according TO
Doctor Walter c. Alvarez, of
Rochester, Minnesota, in many in
stances the fatigue is not due to
any actual disease, but is often
the result of some mental attitude
or state Of mind. In such in
stances, the fatigue is usually
present in the morning, the pa
tent wakes up with il, and il
gradually wears of in the late aft
ernoon.
Feels Better
About three or four o'clock in
the afternoon, the patient may be-
gin to feel so much better that by
ten o'clock at night he is ready for
activity of various types. OBJ
viously, this fatigue is not due TO
a hard days work because, il it
were, it would most likely develop
at night. Many of the tired peo-
pie are somewhat frail and sickly.
1t is not possible to make these
people over, but their lives can be
so adjusted as to avoid mental and
physical strain insofar as pos
sible. Many women are tired be-
cause they are unhappy and full
of worry, and these worries may
be of various types, of course, such
as financial troubles, etc. In such
instances, the matter of relieving
tiredness is one Of readjusting the
persons attitude toward his diff
cultieS.
Actual Disorders
Among the many actual dis
orders which can contribute to
tiredness which is not due to men,
tai attitudes, are high blood pres
sure, hyperthyroidism, that is, ex-
cessive secretion from the thyroid
gland, and hypothyroidism or lack
Of thyroid secretion. Heart dis
ease is a less common cause for
constant fatigue. Often an attack
Of influenza will leave a person
tired for weeks or months, but
this, as a general rule, clears up
sooner or later. In older people,
occasionally, a small hemorrhage
into the brain will occur, which
may cause some tiredness together
with mental confusion and other
symptoms.
The fatigue, however, In some
instances is, according to Doctor
Alvarez, a sign of nervous break
down or psychoneurosis.
In each instance, then, the prop
er thing to do is to find the cause
behind the condition and to relieve
it by such means as are available.

MANILA, Aug. 29.-~More than
5000 Japanese on Morotai and
Halmahera Islands south of the
Philippines have surrendered to
the esd (Negro) Division, head
quarters announced today.
The surrender occurred on Moro
tai, where Maj. Gen. Harry w.
Johnson of Texas received two high
ranking enemy officers, a 1t. Gen.
Ishi and Navy Capt. Fufita.
Gen. Ishi effected the surrender
of 3,170 army troops and Capt. Fu-
fita 5000 navy personnel.
The Japanese are turning in their
weapons and are being billeted in a
concentration area. This was the
first sizeable surrender completed
in the Southwest Pacific areas.
Negotiating in Philippines.
Meanwhile, American officers, low
cred by ropes into precipitous
mountain valley to meet Japanese
surrender ENJOYS, relayed to the
disabled enemy commander de-
mand for surrender of his Southern
Luzon forces. Negotiations also con-
tinued with 1t. Gen Tomoyuki
Yamashita, for surrender of his
10000 Northern Luzon troops.
American negotiators at the
bizarre conference in the steep little
gorge maintained contact with their
headquarters by wigwagging signals
with japanese battle flag.
The conference, in rugged noun
tains % miles east of Manila. lasted
several hours. Maj. Gen. Sunni,
chief of staff to 1t. Gen. Yokoyama,
commander of Southern Luzon
forces, insisted repeatedly he could
not surrender without higher au-
thority. Gen. Yokoyama had
sprained or broken an ankle and
could not appear as scheduled at the
meeting Gen. Sunni said.
He was told bluntly that unless
Gen. Yokoyama's southern forces
capitulated within six to nine days
after the final surrender signing in
Tokyo they would be treated as
outlaws. 81
Three of the conferring Amer
leans, led by Col. William E. Lobit,
Galveston, Tex, carried firearms.
The party included Maj. Richard F.
Jeffers, Cincinnati, Ohio; Maj.
Frank E. Haas, Conklin, Mich, and
1t. A. T. Nicei, Bakersfield, Calf,
for the 38th Division.
The Americans were lowered by
ropes into the tiny valley for the
meeting in bamboo shelter the
Japanese erected. The table was
supported by American mortar shell
cases. American c rations and Jap
anese tea were served for lunch. AS
one japanese explained, they had
been eating ''camotes, nothing but

who accompanied the party, became
from his companions

edly encountered six japanese wash
ing messkits in a stream.

them said Hello, how are you?"

Americans to be an overnight guest
