Radio division, on the basis of
nationwide survey conducted by
his company's marketing analysts.
Several factors will contribute
to the highest postwar radio sales
in the states history, Truesdell
declared. These will include: the
number of new homes to be es-
tablished as a result of war mar
riages; increased preference for
better quality sets including fire.
quency meditation and radio
photograph combinations; de-
finite trend toward ownership of
supplementary radios for kitchens,
recreation rooms and bedrooms
and the substantial projected in
crease in rural electrification.

Talomo "Heartbreak" Trail after
two months, of the toughest fight
ing his company of the 167th In
fantry Regiment has seen in a year
and half overseas. Martz' rifle
company charged one ridge four
times in a rain of Jap grenades. A
strip of ground large enough for
planes to drop sorely-needed sup
plies was to be the prize, but
when infantrymen reached the top
they found only another ridge. The
elusive clearing finally became
known as "The Phantom Drop
Strip. 1t was days later that
they found suitable field. After
81 days of living on X rations,
Martz, whose wife Ruth lives in

This Is Okinawa-Island He'll Hole
Latest Japanese Stronghold To Fall
BY LIEUTENANT BEN PRICE
public Relations Officer, USMC)
EN- ROUTE TO OKINAwA de chic

chief crops are sweet potatoes,
sugar cane and rice.
According to last-known reports,
there is one political party, the all
powerful Imperial Rule Association
the japanese equivalent of the
National Socialist Party of Germany.
The natives are permitted to vote
for Diet, or Congress, but their
candidates are selected for them.
And no matter what the Diet elects
to do, the governor has the power to
veto.
AS a means of controlling the pop
ulation, the Imperial Rule Associa-
ton dominates the six daily and %
weekly or semi-monthly newspapers.
Radio sets are few and can be turned
only to government stations. The
natives, as a result, are almost com
pletely ignorant of the United States.
What little information they have
leads them to believe that Americans
are just one cut above apes.
Religious Freedom
About the only freedom granted
the 445, 900 people in Okinawa is re-
ligious freedom. In 1888, there were
1886 Shintoists, 22,208 Buddhists and
1907 Christians The proportion of
Christians to population is higher
here than in Japan.
Centuries of being kicked around
in the game of power politics has
produced a polygot race. Probably
the first inhabitants were Anus and
Kemasos, the same people who first
lived in Japan, but other racial
strains also are present-Malayan
Korean, Chinese and japanese. The
result is a short people with dark
hair, sometimes wavy and sometimes
straight, and with olive skin.
Okinawans have an ancient his
tory. About $50 years before Col
umbus discovered America, the
Chinese recorded emigrations to
Nansei-Shoto. And it was some
where about this time, too, that
the first king of the island, Tin
sunshi, Grandson of Heaven" first
began his rule. Tinsunshi's de-
scendants ruled until overthrown by
Shunten, the renegade son of the
Japanese Minamoto family.
Fails to Help Japs
In 1872, China demanded and re-
ceived tribute from the kingdom.
While acknowledging Chinese dom
mace, the ruler somehow managed
to keep his friendship with Japan's
overlords. This arrangement contin-
ued until the end of the Sixteenth
Century, when the king failed to
help the Japanese against the Kor-
cans, thereby cooking his goose.
After settling the Korean business,
the Prince of Satsuna descended on
the islands and forced the king to ac-
knowledge Japanese rule. He did,
but continued paying tribute to
China.

EN- ROUTE TO OKINAWA Ode
layed)-This is our target: 1t is a
hell-hole ridden with malaria, lep-
rosy, dengue, plague, typhus filariasis
and virtually every skin disease
affecting mankind.
Two of the worlds deadliest snakes
infest Okinawa in large numbers.
A walk in any wooded area is dan
gerous; both snakes are tree climbers
and often strike from above.
Wild bears are plentiful. Though
not dangerous until aroused, they
can rip a man to pieces in few
minutes.
The climate is worse than any pest
hole in the tropics. The tempera-
lures approximate those in the south
ern regions of the United States, but
the extremely high humidity makes
living highly uncomfortable. The
annual rainfall averages 100 inches.
We expect six inches our first month
ashore and nine the next. Each year
five or six typhoons rake the island.
Nerve Center of Jap's Asia Defense
Our landing on this NANCY, leprous
island was necessary. Okinawa is
the nerve center of Japan's defense
in all Asia. We have opened the
East China Sea, heretofore Jap lake
and refuge of the Imperial fleet.
With Okinawa in our hands, Japan
will be hard pressed to send planes
or troops outside the homeland. No
longer will she suck the wealth of
conquered territories over her mari
time routes to the south. Radio
and cable communications to For
mosa, China, Manchuria, Indo-China,
Malaga and the Dutch East Indies
are disrupted. Her carriers and sub
marines will have to train elsewhere.
Much as we dislike the thoughts
of Okinawa, the natives apparently
like it even less. In the past few
years, some 10000 have migrated to
Japans inundated islands, adm to
Hawaii and Brazil. Economically
and politically they are virtually
slaves
Centered around the islands
largest city, Naha { Pop. 65,765), are
hundreds of sweatshop factories and
workshops specializing in the distil-
lation and brewing of liqour and
beer, the manufacture of lacquer
ware, pongee and panama" hats.
Here also are large canneries and
sugar refineries.
In 1910, machine tool operator
earned 81 cents day, a woman tex
tile worker, nine cents.
Farm Acreage Small
Most of the population is engaged
in sub-sub-standard agriculture.
Some ,595 farm families are de-
pendent for livelihood on what
they can exc out of an average of
1.55 acres of land. This acreage, in
cidentally, is about half the average
of farms in the home islands. The

This state of affairs existed un-
til 1879, when the Japanese-opened
to the western world 20 years be-
fore-began consolidating the nearby
semi-independent kingdoms into the
Empire. China protested, but got no
satisfaction. When Japan crushed
China in the war of 1894-5 and took
over Formosa, China's last claim
disappeared.
