Higashi-Kuni said mere recovery

insufficient, asserting, 1--WE intend
to build completely new and peace
full Japan; we intend to build q
country Of high moral principles
and culture. I think it will require
years for us to complete this task.
"All our internal inconsistencies
will be brought to light as a result
Of Japan's defeat. The conflict be-

POONA, India, Sept. l4.--sAsaf Ali
member of the All-India Congress
Party Working Committee, said to-
day he expected the next six months
would find India well along the road
toward self-government.
Any British offer which falls short
of Sir Stafford Grips 1912 proposal
that the Indian people be given an
opportunity to attain self-govern-
ment after the war, Ali said, would
"fall like an atom bomb"
Ais statement came at the end
of two-day session of the COM
mittee which debated proposal to
boycott the forthcoming general
elections in India because of dis
satisfaction with electoral pro-
cedures. A canvas OF the committee
men indicated majority believed
the party should enter the elections,
seek to capture as many seats as
possible and attempt to liberalize
the franchise later.
Ali asserted the British govern
ment's decision to hold elections In
India was the first step toward
summoning a constituent assembly.
This assembly, chosen from repre-
sentatives in the lower houses of
the provincial legislatures, would
have the task of framing India's s
permanent constitution, Ali said.

A well-mannered youth, Horblit allegedly explained to police he woke early this morning and at- tackled his wife and baby while they lay asleep.
 Because of their inability to talk with Horblit, police summoned a sign language interpreter before attempting to obtain a full confess sion.
 Formerly a resident of Boston's West End, Horblit was a regular performer in New England rings a year ago. However, he was barred from fighting for a while and after his last fight-May 26-the Massa- chusetts Boxing commission said he would not be permitted to fight again.
 Tn that final bout, Horblit was technically knocked out in the fifth round by Schoolboy Jerry Berthiaume of Montreal.
 About two years ago.. Horblit reached the finals of the National Amateur Boxing tourney at Boston Garden. The Horblits came here about 10 months ago and he was employed in the Korn Leather co. plant.
 Unable to hear the bell when fighting, Horblit was patted on the shoulder by his seconds when a round started. At conclusion of . round, the referee would step be- tween the mute and his opponent and signal that 1t was time to rest.

without specific congressional ap- proval in each case.
 Connally said he was ready to face that question and predicted that any such reservation would be defeated.
 The State Department completed its technical testimony on the char ter yesterday with Green Hack worth, legal advisor, as the closing witness. He described provisions for the proposed new international court of justice.
 AS legal expert on international treaties, Hackworth issued a warn- ing against careless approach to the question of reservations.
 The question of reservations was raised by Sen. Eugene D. Millikin, R., Colo, who explained that he was merely seeking information" 1" and not proposing a reservation.
 Recalling the constitutional pro- vision that only the Congress can declare war, Millikin asked what would happen if the senate att tacned a reSerVatoln requiring con- gressional approval in each specific case where the council decided U. s troops should be used to pre- vent aggression.
 Such a reservation certainly would violate the spirit of the char ter if not the actual provisions of the charter" Connally replied.
 Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg, R., Mich, like Connally delegate to the San Francisco conference where the charter was drawn, agreed. He contended 1t likewise would violate the Constitution to write in such a reservation in view of the constitu- tional provision that the Presi- dent may employ troops to protect national interest.

planes that blasted a vast stretch of the KaI1to Plain surrounding Tokyo. Admiral Chester w. Nimitz's Pa cific fleet communique reported that American airmen had won complete mastery of the skies over Tokyo by noon yesterday, seven hours after the assault began. By nightfall, there still was no sign that the Jaapnese had been able or were willing to rally their air and sea forces for counter blow.
 Two Planes Downed Two lone Japanese scout planes sallied out over the Pacific late yes- terday, but both were sent down in flames before they reached the scores of carriers, battleshipS and supporting men o'war that made up Halsey's task force 38-commanded directly by Vice Admiral John s. Mccain.
 At least one American carrier moved within about g miles of the Japanese coast, but up to late hour yesterday there was no sign of the Kamikazi plane squadrons or the battered Imperial fleet that Tokyo boasted would defend the homeland to the death.
 Fires leaping through Tokyo and the 30 airflelds surrounding the city testified to the havoc wrought in the opening hours of the at- tack.
 Nimitz' communique said prelim- mary reports listed 152 Japanese planes destroyed or dana ged aground by the Navy raiders, in addition to the two scout planes shot down. There was no airborne opposition. A few attacking squad rons spotted Japanese planes aloft, but the enemy turned tail and fled without a fight.
 ''The third fleet achieved tacti- cal surprise and by noon, local time, the enemy had offered no determined resistance in the air" Nimitz' communique said.
 Another 19 enemy planes were bagged by a flight of 100 Army Mustang fighters that flew up from Two lima to join the Navy strike. They hit the Kobe area south of Tokyo, wrecked the Kawanishi Air craft plant, destroyed 13 grounded Japanese planes, damaged five more and shot down an outmoded h. terceptor that rose to challenge them.
 The Army iers also sank three small ships and damaged g others, while Navy bombers proving the enemy coast smashed up another seven vessels. Eight more Japanese ships sunk or damaged by planes of Gen. Douglas MacArttur's com- mand raised to 359 the enemy's shipping losses for the past IT days. |
 Macarthur was disclosed to have assumed operational control of all Army air forces in the Ryukyus, presaging intensified air blows on Japan from the New Okinawa bas- eS.

 MT. Truman's party sailed from Newport News on July ' for a round trip that will total more than 10,- coo miles. He will be the first American President to visit western Europe since Woodrow Wilson went to Paris for the 1919 peace confer ence.
 The trip was memorable for MT. Truman for another reason. It marked his first Atlantic crossing since he returned from France af- ter World War I.
 The Presidents party also in- cluded his military aud naval aides, Brig. Gen. Harry H. Vaughan and Capt. James K. Vardaman, Jr., Benjamin V. Cohen, assistant to Byrnes; Charles E. Bohlen, State Department Russian expert and in- terpreter at other Big Three meet ings; H. Freeman Mathews, direc- tor of the State Departments office of European Affairs; and Captain Alphonse McMahon, a Navy physi- clan.
 For the most part MT. Truman has enjoyed excellent weather on the trip thus far and his curiosity has tawen him to virtually every rart of this cruiser. The Augusta is skippered by Capt. James H. Fos- kett of Strafford, Pa. The cruiser Philadelphia, the other vessed in the special two-ship task force, is commanded by Capt. Robert L. Boil Ter of Bremerton, Wash. Rear Ad- nliral Allan R. McAnn commands the task force.
 Aside from his conferences, MT. Truman's schedule aboard ship is essentially the same as his White House routine-up a little after six each morning, a nap after lunch and to bed before midnight. On Sunday he attended church services with the crew.
 He occupies the flag admiral'S suite on the command deck. When he is not at work there, he spends much time on deck in shirt sleeves and tweed cap.
 MT. Truman spent part of the day Monday touring the ship, in- cluding the hot engine and boiler rooms and the sick bay where he chatted with ailing seamen.
 The President had lunch Monday with the officers in the wardroonn mess and yesterday with the war rant officers. He will eat with the chief petty officers and enlisted men before the trip is over.

 The union said its members got no sick pay and fin many cases the sickness Is brought on by occupa- tional hazards of the business. Dur ing 1914, the union paid $1S,400 to members under sick plan.
 The union said 1t asked that the employers bear some of the cost of pensions, which it listed as $42,090 in 1914. It also listed union death benefit payments of $23 900 last year.
 Under the proposed welfare plan, the union said, "the employer is to contribute 3 per cent of his weekly payroll into a fund for the purpose of providing the employees and their families the benefits of hospitaliza- tion. life insurance, health insur- ance, old age pensions and the like, the details of which shall be worked out between the publisher and the union.

 Signing of the city assessors bill will result in the engagement, as chief assessor for Waterbury of Aldro JenHs, member of the state tax commissioner office. MT. Jenks is said to await only the bills sigma ture before his resignation with the state department becomes final. The post will pay $7,500 and according to terms of the bill eliminates the presnt f1ve-man board of tax com- missioners.
 The city charter change bill will provide that employees of certain salary range will receive the $500 cost Of living bonus heretofore denied them. The payment will be made re- troactive to January, 1945. The bill also provides that entrants to the local police department must be no more than 30 years of age instead of the 40-year level now prevailing.
 The resolution of the Young Re- publican Club members last night was tabled for a special session of the members in the near future, only after a bitter debate ensued A committee of three was appoint ed to study the proposed pension plan and Republicans J. Warren Upson and Francis Summa will be asked to address the special meet ing.

 As reported her previously poli- tical efforts are being made to make of the bill highly controversial is- sue for this years fall elction.
 Divergent Figures
 Mayor Monagan's statemnt of to- day relative to the bill follows:
 Recent public comment concern ing the proposed pension law re- vision for the City of Waterbury has contained variety of widely divergent figures as to cost. At no time, however, have the available reports and statements made clear certain basic facts. Without these facts 1t is not possible to make a satisfactory analysis of the cost of this or any pension system.
 These factors are. I. A pro- lection of probable annual cash dis bursements to pensioners over a period of years to ascertain the maximum yearly payment. 2. An actuarial estimate of the pension cost which will accrue during the year 1946. A. A reasonable ac- tuarial basis for computing pensions.
 Tn order to obtain this informa- tion, I have requested Russell O. Hooker, the actuary employed by the Pension Commission, to make a study of the new law and our present group of employees. He will
