bomb about August 8.
In swift succession. the Japa-
nese radio broadcast news the
japanese government would ig-
more the Potsdam proclamation.
THE Allies took this as q rejec-
Ition which destroyed hopes
raised by intelligence reports
that the japanese would sur
render.
On July 28. Stain informed
his allies that Moscow had re-
lceiyed q second japanese pro-
lposal to send a delegation to dis
Icuss means Of bringing the war
Ito an end. Stain said that al
though the proposal was more
definite than an earlier peace
feeler on July Is. he was turning
lit down.
Before leaving for the Potsdam
conference. President Truman
told his war cabinet that one OF
Ibis objectives would be to get
from Russia all the assistance
lin the war that was possible.
Admiral Ernest j. King, then
Chief Of Naval Operations, told
the President that regardless Of
the desirability Of the Russians
entering the war "they were not
indispensable and he did not
think We should go so far as to
beg them TO come in." the re-
port said.
Admiral William d. Leahy. q

who said that unless the allies
obtained unconditional surren-
der. the war win have been lost.

lD0tu Exonerutes
Roosevelt Role,
Douglas Says

Senator Douglas. Democrat d
Illinois, said today that docu-
lments released by the Defense
Department ''seem to exonerate
President Roosevelt's decision at
Yalta to bring Russia into the
war against Japan
Senator Douglas said that the
papers showed that Gen. Mac
Arthur. Gen. Marshall. other
military leaders and Secretary Of
War Stimson all urged that Rus
|sia be brought into the war in
order to reduce American losses
In attacking the Japanese main-
land.
1T should also be remembered
that at the time Of Yalta (Feb-
Iruary, i945) We did not know
that the atomic bomb would be
successfully developed" Senator
Douglas added. ''Under these
circumstances, it was but nat
lural that President Roosevelt
should have taken the advice Of
his military leaders"
The Illinois Democrat said
that while it developed later that
Tic was not necessary to get Rus
sia's cooperation against the
japanese and that she was Of
little or no help, those facts
could not have been forseen at
the time Of Yalta.
"The net effect Of these docu-
|ments win be to clear the repu-
|tation in this matter Of Franklin
ID. Roosevelt" Senator Douglas
said. HE has been called Q
traitor for agreeing to Yalta.
nc is now shown that he merely
acted on the best military
advice"

There were indications only
that the Japanese would be al
lowed TO establish o peacefully
inclined government and the
question Of the Emperor's future
status was left open.

preferred to go through with
unconditional surrender and
destroy the military might Of

He suggested o double cross Il

of this project.

Judith Stewart, Lillian Scheel,
William Poore and Jeffrey Meyer.
This 1907 goal idea, as every
Cuyahoga citizen knows, has two
meanings. One Of them is the full
amount assigned in advance to the
school - so many dollars. The
second is something no matter
how small - given by each child
To many administrators. these two
goals are of at least equal impor-
tance. 1t is felt, too, that a lot is
gained by asking child to sacri-
flee something in order TO make
his contribution to the Chest drive
something that he would otherwise
spend on himself.
A Mayfair boy fell down and
knocked a tooth lose. The quarter
he got for having tooth out,
which he usually spends for him
self, he gave this time TO the Fund.

East Cleveland youngsters are

where last Spring things moved so
smoothly that $50 children were
vaccinated in twelve minutes, the
procedure is so thoroughly organ
lied that they had rehearsal or
"run-through" of the mass inocu-
lation last Friday afternoon, with
austere sixth graders standing in
for the doctors and nurses. Every
child found out just when to hand
over his registration card, and con-
tinued after the inoculation into
"re-assembly" room, where he
waited until all of his classmates
had arrived for the return upstairs
with their teacher.

it might be hard to stop. Rozelle

shots, and by the time the team of |
doctors and nurses finished there
they were pretty footsore and
weary. Lo, here came Miss Cam

"shots" for them - coffee and |

So Rozelle was again scheduled /

mentary schools for this final
