JAPS’ LEAFLETS FAIL ON BATAAN

Tokyo Tried Everything— Letters From Home and

Nude Pictures.

By FRANK HEWLETT United Press Staff Correspondent GEN. MacARTHUR’'S HEADQUARTERS IN AUSTRALIA, April 25.—Japanese propaganda, sometimes seemingly crude, played an important role in the Bataan cam‘paign from mid-December until April 7. They never tired of plastering Filipino soldiers with propaganda leaflets dropped from airplanes. Almost certainly they had able Filipino advisers in their propaganda department, because they knew the Filipino love for home life,

Letters from Home—by Japs

Every night, the Japanese-con-trolled Manila radio played soft sentimental music; an announcer, whose .. voice fairly dripped sympathy, read appealing letters from home. Then Japanese planes would come over and drop pictures. of naked women. Towards the last days, they didn’t overlook the fear element, but em-. phasized the failure of the Unifed States to send reinforcements. Considering the desire of Filipino ero to see their families, they dropp¢d leaflets that included letters from Filipinos to their fathers and sons in Bataan. Morg and more Japanese planes dropped surrender tickets—later renamed “tickets to ing which guaranteed kindly treatment, providing the man who wanted to surrender came toward the Japanese lines waving a white flag and with the strap of his gun over his left shoulder with the muzzle; pointing ‘down. . Printed on the back of the tickets in Japanese was a message from headquarters to Japanese officers and men, insisting that the provisions on the ticket be carried out to the letter, because the Japanese were being closely watched by the Filipinos and Americans and mis‘treatment might endanger the program. « / A War of Badios Besides propaganda, they brought many radio technicians to the Philippines. | Manila had not long

Commercial Users Seek

- Purchase Certificates as Ration Prelude. By LOUIS D. ARMSTRONG

Commercial users of sugar in the city, wholesalers, retailers and tradesmen, were filling out applications for sugar purchasing certificates today in the first step of OPA’'s nation-wide sugar rationing program. The forms were obtainable this morning until noon at all city high schools, and will be available all day Monday at both city and county high schools. ‘Actual registration of commercial users will be held Tuesday and Wednesday. At this time the forms will be turned in to high school registrars and signed by a responsible member of the firm. The application forms were issued in advance because of the time required in filling them out. Seek Inventory Data® Figures must be submitted on past inventories of sugar, and past sales. On these figures will be based the amount the commercial users will be allowed under the rationing program. Commercial users are urged to deal with their nearest high school. On Tuesday and Wednseday the seven high schools in Indianapolis and the seven outside in Marion county will be open from 8 a. m. to 9 p. m. to handle the registration. Users may obtain applications on these registration days also but Alex Taggart, chairman of the local rationing board, suggests that it would - expedite matters if they would obtain them ahead of time and have theth ready to sign on the registration days. Application forms are also available at the rationing board's office in the War memorial today and Monday. : Sales Stop Monday !

WILLKIE MAY HAVE won at Chicago but it hasn’t helped his popularity among party members in congress. Informal polls show Republican congressmen, heavily isolationist before Pearl Harbor, are 9 to 1 against Willkie. Many say Chicago resolution was victory for no one; credit Senator Taft with political error in criticizing it, making it look as if his side lost.
