Japanese People
Kept in Ignorance
Of Peace Moves
Tokyo Radio Hints
Grooming Of Prince
As New Emperor
Ey the Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. Ii
The japanese people were kept
in ignorance that their leaders
were suing for peace, but Tokyo
newspapers appeared today to be
paving the way for a surrender
announcement and Japan's boy
Crown Prince suddenly was ush-
cred into prominence.
Suggesting the possibility that
Hirohito's only son, 11-year -old
Akihito, Is being groomed to succeed
his father at some date not too
distant, a program of publicity
seemed to have been launched in
his behalf.
The Tokyo radio announced to the
world that Saturday morning news
papers carried pictures of the crown
prince and told Of his interest-and
anxiety over the air raids-in the
war.
Endeavoring to picture Akihito as
democratic, one broadcast said the
boy dressed and carried on the same
activities as his classmates at the
peers school.
"His imperial highness even joins
in cleaning the classroom, Domei
news agency reported.
The broadcast was one of many
recorded in the United States by
the Federal Communications Com
mission, but OF the daily outpouring,
the FEC reported that at no time
were the Japanese people informed
that their rulers were trying to quit
the war.
The newspaper Yomiuri, in an ed
itorial broadcast to Asia, seemed to
be preparing the way for a surren-
der announcement when it said, "A
nation does not have the right to
commit suicide"
It added that "the highest duty
OF nation is to continue her exist
ence."
Meanwhile there was q sharp
stunning UP Of home front policies
when it was announced that the
japanese cabinet had taken from
the army and navy control Of the
Peoples Volunteer Corps, which
was set up as a civilian suicide or

Declared 0utmoded
|By DeadIier New One
By the Associated Press.

GUAM. Sunday, Aug. 12-Brig
Gen. Thomas F. Farrell, commander
of Americas atomic bomb opera
tions in the Pacific, declared yester-
day that the bomb which struck
Nagasaki packed more punch than
the first one dropped on Hiroshima.
Gen. Farrell said the second bomb
not only was more potent. but made
the first obsolete and was less diff
cult to construct.
And as the United States Army
Strategic Air Forces announced that
30 per cent of Nagasaki had been
destroyed in the mission Thursday,
Maj. Charles w. Sweeney, North
Quincy, Mass. pilot of the Great
Artist, B-29, which carried out the
attack, said:
THE turbulence from the blast
at Nagasaki was greater than at
Hiroshima"
Nagasaki Was Second Target.
Maj. Sweeny had a thrilling story
to tell of bad weather and low gaso-
line supply which could have meant
failure.
bad weather kept us from drop
ping the bomb on our primary tar
get and cut down our gas supply" "
he said. "We had just enough gas
to make one bomb run on Nagasaki
If we carried the atomic bomb be-
yond Nagasaki we wouldn't have
had enough gas to carry it back to
the base and would have had to drop
it in the ocean.

by instruments, and in the last

ganization to defend the nation
against an Allied invasion.
There was no explanation Of the
move A month ago Tokyo boasted
that the corps numbered 1000, 900
persons in each of the 46 japanese
prefectures.
The Tokyo radio quoted Nip
pom Times editorial admission that
Japan's food situation at this de-
cisive stage of the war;" presented
new difficulties" but that united
production efforts of "the govern
ment and the people" were solving
the problem. p
The newspaper said American
conquest of Okinawa had seriously
interfered with transportation of
needed cereals from China and
Manchuria. And had necessitated
the recent 10 per cent cut in Jap
anese food rations.

Atom Bomb Bursts
High Above Ground
For Maximum Result

The new atomic bomb is de-
tonated in combat "at such
height above the ground as to
give the maximum blast effect
against structures, and to dis
seminate the radioactive prod
ucts as a cloud" the War De-
partment revealed yesterday in
a special preface to its latest
report on the development of
the bomb.
Practically all the radioac-
tive products are carried up
ward in the ascending column
of hot air and dispersed harm
lessly over a wide area" the
preface added. without giving
any details as to how the bomb
is dropped.
This statement, although not
framed as an answer, followed
japanese reports saying the
first bomb was dropped by a
parachute.

reth, this was the dearest spot on
earth to Jesus. Thither He went for
rest from the turbulence of the big
city. Therein He found true affec-
ton and congenial company.
Our story is of two kinds of saints
Martha, the elder-patron saint of
housekeepers-put food and COM
fort first. She cared for her guests
physical well-being. Mary, her sis
ter, was of the mystical type, who
gave the guest sympathetic fellow
ship. She would rather sit at His
feet in spiritual communion than
serve in kitchen or at table. And
Jesus commended her. He desires
less our gifts than our fellowship. 1t
needs both Martha and Mary to
provide the perfect hospitality for
the one whose presence blessed the
Bethany home.
Our lesson passes from the Beth
any incident to Paul's familiar poem
of love. This is the greatest poem OF
love ever penned-and it was writ
ten by a man who was either a
bachelor or widower. The 18th
chapter of I Corinthians is the
charter for a happy home. 1t should
often be read aloud at meal time
until every member of the family
has memorized it.
In the authorized version the old
word charity" is used in the trans
lation of the Greek word love
Charity is only one aspect of love
And love is one word that is synony-
nous with God.
