bomb involved the use of uranium,
a metallic substance found IN SOUTH

Principle Of the new explosive
lies in splitting atoms the tiniest

EUROPE:
New Developments

With America now committed to

Foremost recent developments in

cision to grant occupied Germany a
larger measure Of local independ.

Austria from the Reich, and plans
for the determination Of a new gov.
eminent in Yugoslavia.
Declaring that it was up to the
Germans themselves to re-establish
their country in the eyes of the
world, General Eisenhower an.
nounced that local trade unions and
political parties would be permitted
to function wherever the Allied mill.

ing that the winter ahead would be
hard. Eisenhower urged the Ger.
mans to repair damaged properties
now. gather cordwood for fuel
since coal will not be available, and

crop.
In determining to separate Aus.
tria from the Reich, the Allies
planned for the creation Of an indie.
pendent state in free and open cleo
tons. before which the country
would be divided into four occu.
pational zones under U. S., British,
Russian and French military com.
manders. The U. S. zone constitutes

Later, the Swedish foreign
office revealed that the Japs
had asked it to transmit their
request for cessation of hos
tilities to the Allied powers.
Under terms Of the unconditional
surrender drawn by the U. S., Brit
ain and China at Potsdam, and
later subscribed to by Russia, the
Japs were required to:
1. Eliminate the influences Of
those who have directed jap
conquest;
2. Submit TO occupation Of
designated points in the home
islands until world peace Is as
sured;
3. Limit Jap sovereignty to
the main islands Of Honshu,
Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku;
4. Give up all foreign con-
quests;
S. Disarm all forces;
6. Remove all obstacles to
freedom Of speech, religion and
thought.
In return, the Potsdam terms
promised Japan retention Of all in
dustries to maintain the civilian
economy and provide for repara-
tons in goods; access to raw mate
rails and free trade. and withdraw
al Of occupation forces upon organ
ization Of a peace-minded govern
ment in conformance with the
wishes Of the people.
In first indicating the Jap decision
to give up the fight. the Tokyo radio
declared that the Nipponese had ap-
preached Russia to act as inter-
mediary in peace negotiations with
the U. S., Britain and China several
weeks ago at the request Of the en-
peror. Having failed to establish
contacts. however, the government
