Motorists Warned
Thdt Traffic
Deaths On Upswing

Montana Highway Patrol Su-
pervisOr Charles L. Sheridan,
today warned all motorists to
exercise extreme care in their
driving and walking.
so far this year, there have
been 80 persons killed in traf-
fiC accidents. This is only 2
less than at the same TIM
last year. Several severe acci :
cents during the months OF
March and April increased the
number of dead for those
months by 50 percent moro
than the same months of 1886.
Sheridan said. One thing that
every motorist and pedestrian
can do as his share of the load
in reducing this terrible toll, is
to keep in mind that accidents
are not things that just hap
pen to other people, but rather
that he might be the next one
killed., Sheridan continued.
IF this increase in deaths
continues, there will be well
over 200 persons killed this
year in traffic accidents"
Sheridan concluded.

BY the Assoeioted Press

TOKYO, Dec. 26-Hideki TOTO
Premier of Japan at the time ot
Pearl Harbor, took the witness stanc
at the wa crimes trial today ano
defiantly declared, in a IS 65,000-Woro
deposition. that the war was fought
in self-defense.
The voluminous statement, read
by his japanese attorney, Iichiro
Kiyose, asserted that "our decision
to make war was made only as a
last resort A war of self-existence
was our only alternative. We staked
the fate of our country on that de-
cision-and lost"
The 63-year- defendant took
full responsibility, as Premier, for
Japan's defeat, but he added:
Never at any time did I ever
conceive that the waging of this
war would or could be challenged
by the victors as an international
crime"
Tojo's appearance on the stand
capped 10 months of rather dull
testimony and documentary evi-
dence seeking to prove that Is Japa-
nese political and military leaders
conspired to wage aggressive war
fare as early as 1929.
His statement will require at least
two days of steady reading. Then
will come prosecution cross-exami-
nation-probably among the most
searching in the history of jurls-
prudence.
TOTO professed to be unable to
the American position
from beginning to end. He regarded
American policy in the Far East as
evidence of an increasing ''un-
attitude, and viewed
military preparations as a
direct challenge to Japan.
As for the surprise attack on
Pearl Harbor, Tojo's deposition
he trusted fellow de-
fendant Shigenori Togo. then
foreign minister, to deliver adequate
advance notice.
"It was matter of great regret
to the japanese government on
learning subsequently that the
actual delivery of the note was de-
layed." he added.
Tojo told his story in chrono-
logical order. Some of the high
lights:
He denied he had precipitated the
China incident" in 1887 with a
telegram from Manchuria saying
the rear of his Kwantung army in
Manchuria should be secured by a
blow at Chang Kai-shek's regime
He denounced United States-British
aid to Chang, saying it was the

primary reason why Japan was un-
able to settle the incident.
TOTO admitted he approved the
tripartite pact with Germany and
Italy because ut is my sincere be-
lief the purpose of the treaty was
to improve the international posi-
ton of Japan" He denied there
was any intention of dividing up the
world with Hitler and Mussolini, or
that Japan co-ordinated its military
policies with its Axis allies.
AS for expansion to the SOUTH"
which precipitated the Pacific crisis
in 1941, TOTO declared Japan's orig
inan intention in stationing troops
in French Indochina was to cut off
supplies to Chang both through
Indochina and Thailand.
He contended the United States and
Britain meddled in both Thailand
and Indo-China affairs and pre-
vented Japan from getting needed
