Only Jap Democracy
Can Take lis Place in
World, Grew Says
BY me Associcted Press

Japan can attain an honored
place in the family Of nations only
through democracy. Joseph C.
Grew said today.
Japan Is at the crossroads. :"
said the former American Ambas-
sador to Japan.
One road leads back to 1.-The old
military feudalism which brought
about Japan's downfall" he said.
Another leads to communism
But there is another road. the
only road which. in the world as
it is built today. can lead
Japan once more to resume her
proper and honored place in the
family of nations. That is the
road of democracy built on high
Christian principles and q high
moral code"
Purpose Is Outlined.
Speaking to the Japan Interna-
tional Christian University Foun-
dation at the Hotel Washington,
the one-time Ambassador and for
mer Undersecretary of State out
lined the purpose of the university
which japanese Christians and
Protestants in the United States
and Canada plan to build in ia
pan.
Referring to Japanese youth,
Mr.. Grew said. Our purpose must
be to give them the truth that
shall set them free, to help them
correctly evaluate facts and wisely
steer their future course :"
Mr.. Grew. who was in Tokyo
when the Japanese attacked Pearl
Harbor, said the foundation is
launching a campaign in the
United States and Canada for $40
million to build the university at
Mitaka. II miles from Tokyo. He
said United States and Canadian
Protestants already have given
81 100000 to the drive and that
japanese have contributed about
$430, 1000.
Mr.. Grew estimated two years
would be required to obtain the
rest of the funds.
Non Christians Help.
He told the foundation that 95
per cent of the Japanese who have
contributed to the drive are non-
Christians, which gives us the
deepest encouragement"
Mr.. Grew said that Hisato Ich-
imada. governor of the Bank of
Japan, declared when making his
contribution: II am not a Chris
tian. However. I have come to
the conclusion that nothing but
Christian philosophy underlying
Japan's democracy will ever put
us through"
Secretary of State Acheson and
Gen. Macarthur. supreme Allied
commander in Japan, have in
dorsed the university project, Mr..
Grew said. He added that "other
leading citizens in both the United
States and Canada" are assisting
in the campaign.

Cherry Tree Donor
10 Arrive Today for
Week S Visit Here

DR.. Yukio Ozaki, elder japanese
statesman who presented Wash.
ington its Towering cherry trees
is scheduled to arrive here today
for weeks visit.
A lifelong crusader in the cause
OF world peace, the 91-year- old DR.
Ozaki is visiting the United States
under the sponsorship Of the
American Council on Japan, q
group working for the permanent
cementing of American-Japanese
relations.
His trip to Washington is a kind
OF climax to DR.. Ozaki's trip. He

as Mayor Of Tokyo, he sent as q
gesture of friendship to the Amer.
ican people at the end of the
Russo-Japanese War in 1905.
DR.. Ozaki points out that that
war might have ended disastrously
for Japan if it had not been fol-
the efforts Of President Theodore
Roosevelt In negotiating a settle
ment of the dispute.
World Peace Spokesman.
After the attack on Pearl Har-
Dor. the japanese press reported
that the trees had been cut down,
DR.. Ozaki recalls, but he did not
believe them.
A frail, Sad-eyed little man, DR..
Ozaki has achieved a reputation
as a spokesman for the cause of
world peace in the Far East almost
equal to that of the late Mahatma
Ghandi. AS a continuous member
Of the Japanese Parliament which
he helped to form in 1890. he con-
sistantly fought the rise of intense
japanese nationalism, often at the
risk of his own life.
While in Washington, he will
stay at the Shoreham Hotel. He
Is accompanied by Eugene H.
Dooman, vice president of the
American Council, and former
counselor at the American En-
bassy in Tokyo.

his third four-year term. The
position carries no salary.
Mr.. Schwab said he accepted
the reappointment, but added
that he did not anticipate any
great pleasure out of it," because
of the many headaches" attached
to the job, particularly those in
volving segregation.
The Commissioners also desig-
mated Budget Officer Walter Fow-
ler as their personal representa-
tive on the board for another year.
Mr.. Fowler has served in this
capacity since the board was
created. Godfrey Thornett, secre-
tary to the Commissioners, was
reappointed as Mr.. Fowler's alter
nate.
A Washington real estate man,
Mr.. Schwab has resisted drastic
changes in the segregated pattern
OF the Districts Fairgrounds. He
has insisted many times that the
difference between the Interior
Department and his views on ra-
cial segregation is a matter of
timing.
Mr.. Schwab has pointed out
that Interior is pledged to i'm
mediate elimination of segrega-
tion, while his stand is that it is
not the right time to break down
all the ng-establshed barriers.
When the Recreation Board last
year eliminated the ban in it's BY
laws against interracial play
grounds and programs, and prom
ised to eliminate segregation as
fast as possible. Mr.. Schwab sup
ported the change.
Mr.. Schwab, along with Harry
S. Wender, Recreation Board
chairman. has been active in the
Recreation Boards fight to gain
control of recreation units oper-
ated by the Interior Department.
Early this year, the board and
the department signed a basic
agreement giving the local body
control of practically all Interior
units except swimming pools.
The board recently refused to
take over the pools on a biracial
basis and the Interior Department
is going ahead with plans to open
them in June with no racial bans.
At the May meeting of the Rec
reation Board, Mr.. Schwab made
statement condemning the In
terror Department for it's reported
attempt to purge him.
He said he was aware that In
terror did not want him on the
board, but added that if the Fed
eral agency "is to run the Recrea-
tion Board, I want no part of it. >"

HickenIooper Charges

DES MONIES, Iowa, May 81 (P).
Senator Hickenlooper, Repub-
lican, of Iowa said today that Gov
eminent documents specifying
wartime locations of American
fleet units were among items
seized in 1945 raids on the New
York Office of the magazine
Amerasia.
Senator Hickenlooper made the
assertion in a telephone interview
from Mason City, Iowa, with the
Associated Press covering what
he called "the vital Importance
of the current investigation of the
Amerasia affair"
The Senator is a member of a
Senate investigating subcommit-
tee which is inquiring into charges
that Communists are working in
the State Department.
Amerasia's Offices were raided
twice in 1945-f1rst by agents of
the Office of Strategic Services
and next by the FBI.
In these raids they found doc
uments of great Importance be-
tween our State Department and
its foreign representatives" Sen
ator Hickenlooper said. "They
found important war plans They

Senate Probers Hear
Two Officials OF FBI
On Amerasia Case
BY Cecil Holland

Senate investigators today
are hearing further testimony in
the 1945 Amerasia magazine case
this time from agents of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The Senate Foreign Relations
Subcommittee, investigating
charges of communism in the
State Department, called in Louis
B. Nichols, assistant FBI director,
and D. Milton Ladd, assistant to
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover,
for closed meeting.
Mr.. Ladd directed the FBI in
vestigation of the Amerasia case,
which involved the alleged theft
of secret Government documents,
including many from the State
Department, and the arrest of six
individuals.
AS the Senate subcommittee
headed by Senator Tydings, Dem
ocrat, Of Maryland, continued this
phase of its inquiry, Senator Nc
Cathy. Republican, of Wisconsin
formally demanded that it sub
poena the six persons arrested in
the case to testify under oath.
Raided by OSS and FBI.
"As have previously pointed
out" Senator Mccarthy said in
letter to the subcommittee chair
man, "the Amerasia case is, in my
opinion the key to the Communist
fifth column in the State Depart
ment."
1t was Senator McCarthys
charges of Communists, fellow
travellers and security risks in the
State Department that led last
February to the current Senate
investigation.
The six persons arrested in the
case we're John S. Service, veteran
State Department career officer;
Philip Jaffe, editor of the maga-
zine; Kate Mitchell, co-editor;
Mark Gayn, a writer; Andrew
Roth, then lieutenant in Naval
Intelligence, and Emmanuel S.
Larsen, a State Department anal
yst.
The arrests resulted from raids
by the wartime Office of Strategic |
Services and the FBI on the maga-
zines New York Offices and the
recovery of hundreds of classified
Government documents.
Two Paid Fines.
A Federal grand jury here re- /
fused to indict Mr.. Service, who
was subsequently returned to duty
in the State Department; Miss
Mitchell and Mr.. Gayn. Jaffe
and Larsen drew fines and charges
against Roth were dropped.
Senator Mccarthy revived the
mysterious case when he accused
Mr.. Service of being pro- Com
munist." The State Department
official, now undergoing a new
loyalty check. has denied this. i
The wisconsin, Republican said
the magazine. no longer being pub
lished, was established for the pur-
poses of influencing State Depart
ment policy in the Far East and
syphoning documents out of the
department. Saying it was sue
cessful in both undertakings, SEN
ator Mccarthy asked the commit
tee chairman for permission to
croSs-eXamine the six persons.

Synthetic Rubber Output
Now 100000 Tons a Year
BY the Associated Press

The Governments synthetic
rubber plants are turning out syn
thetic rubber now at a rate of
100000 tons a year, the Recon-
struction Finance Corp. reported
yesterday. This compares with
100000 tons-a-year rate in Jan
uary.
In a progress report on efforts
to put standby" plants into
operation and boost output to
meet defense requirements, RFC
Vice Chairman Edward Rowe said:
/. Two of these plants, in Texas,
already have gone into operation.
Production is to start in about
two weeks in three plants in Cali
fornia, two in Kentucky, one in
Ohio and one in Pennsylvania
Shortly after the start of 1851,
one West Virginia and two LouiSi-
ana plants will begin production.
2. The present rate of output
will be pushed above 100000 tons
a year by the end of 1850 and
the production rate of 100000
tons ordered by President Truman
should be attained in the early
spring.

President Truman will open the
doors of all American nurseries
when he calls the Midcentury
White House Conference on Chill
dren and Youth on December 8.
Already, two weeks before con-
ference delegates assemble in
Washington, there has been con-
siderable peeking through nursery
keyholes.
More than 1900 community
committees have been working for
year and a half to provide us
with data about the Nations chill
dren," the conference director,
Melvin A. CHASER, says.
I'm addition we have been
gathering information from scien-
fists, doctors and teachers and
from the young people themselves.
Aims Are Defined.
For this will be a different
gathering from the four previous
White House conferences on chill
dren which have been held at To-
year intervals since 1909.
This time we will know exactly
what we want to accomplish when
the conference begins"
And what will this be?
Mr.. CHASER explained:
Briefly. we will try to close
the gap between what is known
to need doing and what is being
done in all areas where children
are concerned.
"The physical problems Of
youngsters are largely licked to-
day, or well on the way to being
licked.
But what has happened? Most
of the questions now being brought
to doctors and teachers have no
relationship to physical findings.
Parents are asking such things
as how can I get Johnny to eat
his Spinach?' or why won't he
play with the other boys?"
Personality to Be Studied.
"It is in the field of healthy
personality development that the
least work has been done"
"It is here, therefore, that the
conference will lay It's greatest
emphasis"
This matter Of personality de-
velopment crops up over and over
again in the area reports already
received by White House confer
ence staffs. Take, for instance,
the survey Of Philadelphia chill
dren's needs. If they are a fair
sample, the children of the coun-
try should have better housing.
There is lack of adequate foster
homes and day care services. And
in metropolitan areas particu-
larly, there is a dire need of facil-
tiles for Negro children, particu-
larly adolescent Negro girls.
The Philadelphia report goes on
to point out that adoption laws
should be re-examined and fam
lily living education" expanded. /
A homemaker service is another
suggestion. and facilities for the
care of borderline dull children
who could profit from some train
ing" The need for facilities for
psychiatric diagnosis and treat
ment also is emphasized.
Needs Are Analyzed.

a bridge impossible. What are
we waiting for?" asked the chair
man. The committee took off theil
coats. repaired the bridge ano
erased at least one local need from
their report.
This is an example Of the way
things are done in a democracy,
the conference director points out
In a totalitarian state men are
taught to follow the party line
with no independence of thought
Here we must raise our chill
dren to accept a variety of de-
mands and pressures. Only In
this way can they acquire the
maturity needed to keep q
democracy alive"
