garded by japanese intellectuals,
was the first newspaper to feel
the wrath Of censors who moved
into Tokyo offices only after the
press persisted in publishing in
flamatory stories.
The newspaper was a model
with the rest Of the press yester-
day morning in condemning the
'regretful atrocities committed
by Japanese, on helpless prisoners.
and accusing the military of start.
ing the war.
But for three days previously,
MacArthur's headquarters charged
it had been SOOTHING off the atrocity
stories and accusing the United
States itself Of violating interna-
tional law by unleashing the atom
ic bomb.
Asahi in one editorial said the
atrocity report was put out to over.
shadow Japanese press reports OF
outrages committed by some of
the American soldiers in Japan"
Army authorities have never
been able to substantiate such re-
ports, and have styled them propa-
ganda.
Asahi also declared that the JAP
anese found the atrocity reports
Unbelievable because moral
character always had been
stressed among their soldiers. It
added that, Japanese soldiers were
such good fathers and sons at home
that 1T cannot be believed" they
committed such cruelties on the
unarmed masses" in the Philip
pines and elsewhere.
If the Japanese lost their chance
to win over the Filipinos by their
outrages. Asahi declared this
point applies also to the Allied
forces now in Japan"
Another editorial declared tn e

the atomic bomb ,"and attacks on
hospital ships are violations of in
ternational law more than the use
Of poison gas"

All this, with propaganda-tinted
headlines and slanted foreign
news, Macarthur headquarters
held, violated orders against pub.

tive criticism and articles disturb
ing the public.
The rest of the Tokyo newspa.
pers yesterday lashed out at TOTO
and other warmakers, accepted
MacArthur's recent designation OF
Japan as a fourth-rate nation, and
deplored atrocities and those re-
sponsible.
Yomiuri Hochi charged that the
present government had taken no
step toward fostering free speech.
nor support Of democratic politi.
cal parties.
In fact, the newspaper declared,
the government even had stalled
on disarming the Army and Navy |
