TAKE A WAR JOB TODAY! Help meet
MinnesOta's most critical manpower emergency!

Sure, you can take a job at GopherI
Because no other work is so urgent, so
vitality important at this time to our
fighting men. Sure, you are needed!
Because unless thousands of men and
women turn out for emergency work
right now, Americans may fall and die
for lack of ammunition.
Think it over. If you are not now in
essential war work, what's keeping you
away from job at Gopher? Is it lack
of experience? No experience is needed
to get a Gopher war job. Is it age or
physical handicaps? Every day we're
hiring men and women-old and young,
many with physical disabilities. You'll
find good pay and fine working condi-
tons at Gopher. You'll find the work
simple and interesting. And you'll get
the priceless satisfaction of knowing
that you are doing top priority war
work Of the most critically important
kindl
Yes, think it over. Think of the
urgent need today for more and more
workers at Gopher. Honestly-don't
you belong out here on the job with the
rest of these good Americans?

entirely sincere-they are still moth
ing but sentiments. Recognizing
this, Hirohito himself declares that
"he will deliberately refrain from
giving too many promises regarding
the future of the country at this
moment, as he realizes that 1t Is
deeds and not mere words that really
matter" This is perhaps the most
significant point in all his answers
If the Emperor speaks in good faith
there is reason to be hopeful. For
his authority and prestige are OBJ
viously great in the eyes of his sub
jects, and If he himself really means
what he says, he can do much to
make Japan truly peaceful, trust
worthy, law-abiding land by direct
ing the japanese as a whole to live
up to the things their leaders are
now protesting.
Evening star., 1945-09-27
Hirohito's S Views

While the world is waiting to
hear what he had to say during
his unprecedented social CALI on
General MarArthur, Emperor Hiro-
hito is already on record-in his
written answers to two American
interviewers-in support of ideas
previously expressed by Premier
Prince Higashi-Kuni and Vice Pre-
mier Prince Konoye. He favors the
installation of a free japanese press
as rapidly as possible. He says his
country is in urgent need of food,
clothing, shelter and fuel. and he
hopes other nations will sympa-
thetically cooperate in this problem.
He wants Japan's educational sys-
tenn revised ito foster a search for
truth, initiative, broadmindedness
and the correct kind of world out
look" Although he opposes an i'm
mediate revolutionary change, he
desires and intends that his people
be made to appreciate the value of
democratic government and even
tually have one. He asks the Allies
to watch his land closely, because
now it is on new peace footing,
and he will employ every means at
his disposal so that it will prove
itself equal to membership in the
family Of nations.
It is difi1cult to find fault with
these sentiments, but however sin
eere they may be-and they may be
