what she has never had before: Ample
sources OF oil, rubber, iron and tin.
plus vast reservoir OF slave labor
The only possible force which can in
terfere with this program Is the Amer
lean Pacific feet, and we will begin
by knocking that force out"
Since these were the Japanese calcula-
tions, the result has been a progress
sive decline of naval prestige in Japan.
1t must have seemed impossible to
Japanese naval spokesmen in the dis
cussion of 1941, and especially after
Pearl Harbor, that in the spring of
1945 the whole vast structure of Japans
conquests would be destroyed and the
American Navy parading UP and down
the seacoast of Japan without a shot
being fired at It, Yet SO 1t has turned
out, and herein lies the great oppor-
tunity for the army clique If only they
can get off without an actual Allied
occupation OF the home territory.
If only they can say, THE navy
failed us, true, but the army was never
beaten and the enemy made peace
rather than face that army in decisive
battle" the legend can be preserved,
the japanese military clique will have
saved face. 1t cannot be preserved If
the whole of the Japanese homeland
is occupied by Allied forces. 1t would
be impossible to convince any Japanese
who saw Allied troops march into his
home town that his army had not
been defeated.
We have fresh in our minds the
Hitlerian legend Of the ''undefeated
army" based very largely on the fact
that there was no general Allied mill
tary occupation of Germany after the
World War. A token" occupation of a
few key points, or the mere temporary
presence of an Allied control COM
mission, will not produce the same
effect as a general occupation Of the
whole country. We have only to recall
the Nazi propaganda after Hitler's rise
to power to realize how readily such
things can be explained away-to those
who have not actually seen and under
stood them.
What may, therefore, be at stake in
all this is the future standing with the
Japanese people of the military group
which now rules Japan. To Say this is
not to say that the acceptance of un-
conditional japanese surrender is not
worth while, even if the Japanese agree
to this only on our assurance that we
will not occupy their homeland in force
A Japan completely disarmed, deprived
Of all its overseas possessions and sub
mitting to the demilitarization of its
industry might be rendered helpless for
a long time to come even if, mean
while, the legend of an undefeated
army were being taught to its youth
in preparation for war of revenge.
But If we agree to anything like this,
we must do so with our eyes open, with
clear understanding of just what it
is that we are permitting, and that
we are saving American lives now with
the grim determination to maintain
such state of future vigilance with
regard to Japan as shall render i'm
possible any translation of japanese
military legend into military action.
tCopyrirht. 1a45)
Evening star., 1945-07-25

In many OF the rumorS now current
concerning possible surrender terms for
Japan, the question of Allied military
occupation OF the Japanese home islands
Is mentioned There is Of course no
way of being certain about the point,
but 1t is entirely conceivable that the
Japanese leaders-if they are consider
ing surrender at all-are trying to avoid
such an occupation.
From our viewpoint. therefore, we
may have to consider whether 1t is
worth while to continue the Japanese
war until the Japanese are ready to
surrender without our agreeing not 10
occupy their sacred soil" In full force.
1t is not difficult to see why the
military bosses of Japan might wish to
avoid Allied occupation. Up to this
time there has been no actual invasion
of any of the four main islands of
Japan. None of the inhabitants of those
islands have seen an armed American
soldier, though they have seen plenty
of airplanes and those in coastal areas
have seen plenty Of warships. 1t is
still possible for the military caste, the
japanese army leaders, to maintain in
tact--for future use-the legend of the
undefeated Imperial Army. They can
begin right away teaching the rising
generation Of japanese school children
how the navy was defeated. and how the
demands of the navy for aircraft pre-
vented the proper development of the
armys air forces. But the army itself,
they will say, was never beaten, though
many of its garrisons were cut off and
destroyed due to the failure of the navy
to do its job.
This would be line OF argument
which would be consistent with the
bitter feeling that has long prevailed
in Japan between the higher ranks of
the army and navy-long before this
war began. The army consistently
maintained that Japanese expansion
must take place first Of all on the Asiatic
continent and that not until China had
been reduced to vassalage and the
Russians at least driven west of Lake
Baikal could the Japanese regard their
basic position as sufficiently secure to
permit further expansion to the south
ward. The navy has taken the view
that the seizure of the sources of fuel
and raw materials in the Netherlands
Indies and Malaga was an absolute pre-
requisite to the prosecution of full-scale
war by Japan. AS it turned out, the
army lost a certain amount of face"
in not being able to wipe out Chinese
resistance in five years of war Cup to
194D and in the sharp defeats which
it sustained in trying out" the Russians
along the Siberian frontier.
Therefore, in 194l. when the japanese
estimated that the Russians were about
to be decisively beaten by the German
armies (then at the gates of Moscow
and that Britain was in no case to
intervene effectively in the Far East,
the opportunity was ripe for those who
favored southern expansion-the navy
scheme-to try 1t their way 1t was
easy for spokesmen of this viewpoint
to say:
THE cause OF the long delay In China
Is obviously lack of suficient raw mate
rials to speed up our industrial output.
Now is the chance to assure Japan Of
