Union Says US. Aided
 In Revolt

Washington, July "A - (UP) - An official of the American Union accused the U. S. State De- partment today of making a "con- spicuous contribution" to the Bol- ivian revolt.
 The accusation was made in letter to Assistant Secretary of State Spruille Braden by Ernesto Galazra, chief of the Pan-Amer- ican Unions division of labor and social information.
 The assassination of Bolivian President Gualberto Villarroel and the overthrow of his administra- ton, Galarza said, brings to a suc- cessful conclusion the campaign Waged against the Villarroel regime since it's establishment
 "A conspicuous contribution to this campaign was the charge made by the Department of State that the revolution of December, 1943, was foreign inspired and Nazi in character and intention" Galarza wrote.
 Subsequent, and, believe, sim cere efforts of Villarroel to im- prove conditions of life and labor for the working masses of his coun- try did not apparently impress off, clal opinion in the United States. Indeed, 1t would appear that the progressive labor policies of Villaro roel only increased his unpopular ity with the (statel department"

Occupation Of Japan Moues Successfully:
 To Sign Treaty Soon

Tokyo, July 24-UP)-Allied oc- cupation of Japan has developed so successfully that a final peace treaty may be signed next Spring and the original occupation estimate of from 5 to Is years radically reduced, it was believed today in high Allied quarters.
 The chief remaining bar to sig nature of a final peace treaty in the opinion of high Allied quarters was said to be the question of repara- tionS.
 Supreme Allied headquarters here does not deal With separations ques- tions but 1t was believed that there might be differences of opinion with Russia on separations which might block efforts to sign an early Jap- anese peace treaty.
 Early Consideration Seen
 In the view of the high command here. it was said, the separations is- sue should be taken up at an early date. The reports of President Tru- mans emissary, Edwin ". PauIey, it was thought, would provide a basis for consideration of reparations es- inmates.
 It was said here that if repara- tions can be fixed and if no other inter-Allied differences arise there should be no reason why a final peace treaty could not be signed possibly as early as 20 months after the July 26 anniversary of the Pots- dam declaration.
 That would mean a peace treaty next Spring.
 One stumbling block on the repar- ationS issues was said to be the status of machinery and other ma- terials removed by Russia from Manchuria and Korea. Russia is said to regard these supplies-valued at hundreds of million of yen-as war booty" rather than separations.
 May Set Time Limit
 Once the peace treaty is signed it was said that the matter of fur ther occupation of Japan might be settled much more rapidly than or iginally supposed. In some quarters it was thought time limit on the occupation might even be set before the end of this year.
 Allied officers were said to believe generally that the bulk of the occu- patton forces should be withdrawn as soon as feasible. They believe that the difficulties of any military occupation increase in direct ratio with the length of the forces stay in the occupied land.
 They point out that there has been no indication of any extensive ef- fort by the Japanese ultra-nation- alists to re-establish themselves and that the Japanese have shown great willingness to accept the fact of their defeat and seem to be inter- ested in re-establishing themselves as nation worthy of international respect.
 Public Order Excellent
 They note that Allied troops have had little to do in the way of main- taining peace and order since dis arming the Japanese military forces and that public order throughout the country is excellent
 In their opinion the vast majority Of Japanese, including Emperor Hir- ohito are trying to cooperate in good faith With the Allies and to abide scrupulously by the terms of the Potsdam declaration.
 It was pointed out here that Jap

Crossroads
  Radio Doses

Aboard the U.S.S. Appalachian in Bikini Lagoon, July 23-(UP)-Four men participating in the Operation Crossroads project have been ex- posed to radioactivity above the lirn- 1t of human tolerance but none has suffered i'll effects, it was disclosed today.
 Col Stafford Warren, radiologieal safety adviser. said one of the men had received -four times more ex- posture than we thought anyone would be able to stand, but he is still on the safe side"
 That man, Warren said, was a radioactivity monitor who went aboard the Japanese cruiser Sakawa before she sank after the Able Day explosion July l. He was halfway across the SakaTa's deck before his Geiger counter registered the area as unsafe. He received four tenthS of a roentgen, a unit used to mea- sure radioactiVity.
 A pilot in drone aircraft which went too close to the atom cloud on Able Day received three-tenths of roentgen while two other monitors were exposed to two-tenths each.
 A sailor aboard a small craft fell in radioactive water the day after the burst and swam around for half an hour before he was rescued.
 He was panic-stricken," Warren said.
 We took him to a hospital ship and physical check showed he suf- fered no ill effects. We treasured him that the quantity of radioactiv- ity to which he had been exposed was not dangerous. He was quite a hero when he returned to his ship"
 Warren said that the greatest danger in the atom tests was that from radioactive sodium in the wa- ter. This radioactive sodium-one of the elements of Salt-drifts with the current and makes the sea unsafe a great distance from the scene of the atomic burst.
 He said he expected millions of tons of water to contain radioac- tive sodium,
