* Are Reported Ill. (Continued From Page One)

Hugh Crumpler quoted American officers on Okinawa who had just returned from Atsugl airstrip as saying that a medical representative of the Japanese imperial headquarters had reported there were

416125 allied war prisoners, including

417 hospital cases, in two camps within a radius of 10 miles of the Atsugi airstrip. Plans were being made to evacuate them Thursday in C-54 transports.) Badger immediately assigned Omdr. Harold E. Stassen to .direct naval relief, and to rush all hospital ships into the area and quickly classify all the prisoners. Complementing the prisoner of war investigators, carrier planes flew over the compounds again and

It was estimated that 8000 Americans are among the 34,000 prisoners reported. Hospital Ships Ready Three great white vessels of mercy, the U.S. 8. Benevolent, U. 8. 8. Solace, and the Dutch-manned British-owned. Tjitjaleneka, were anchored among the hundreds of rim allied warcraft in Sdgami bay ate yesterday and all through last night their brilliant floodlights shone like rescue beacons for the thousands of prisoners in Japan. Junod arrived in Japan from Moscow, via Manchuria, aboard a safe-conduct Russian ship. He reached Tekyo on Aug. 9. He saw Lt. Gen. Jonathan M. Wainwright and Lt. Gen. A. E Percival, British commander at Singapore, and Gov, Gen. A. W. L. Starkenborgh Stackouwer of the Netherlands Indies in their Manchurian prison camp. He reported their quarters were fair, food poor but conditions “adequate.” Upon his arrival in Tokyo, Junod said he found the Japanese attitude “coldly unco-operative.” Information was bad and the transportation system had collapsed. Plans are being rushed to establish an evacuation center at Yokosuka and begin the task of sending prisoners home to the United States. _ Adm. William PF. Halsey has worked out a plan for the imme{diate evacuation of prisoners, sick lor well, and it goes into operation {the instant that the marines ocicupy the Yokosuka naval base.

PARIS PAPER BARES NAZI TRIAL NAMES

(Continued From Page One)

Aug. 8, France, the United States, Britain and Russia were to publish the list simultaneously in their respective capitals tomorrow (late today, Indianapolis time). Despite France's pledge, L'Humanite jumped {the gun by a day. L'Humanite claims: that its list, which is accompanied by the charges to be leveled against the { Nazis, was handed out by the “in- | ternational documentation agency,” | founded recently by Henri D’Astier de la Vigerie, brother of Emmanuel, formerly interior minister of the Al-

ceremony aboard the Missouri. Wainwright accepted. Members of Wainwright's staff and Lt. Gen. A. E. Percival, the British commander who surrendered Singapore, also will attend the ceremony as MacArthur's guests. All were liberated from a Japanese prison ‘camp in Manchuria and flown to Chungking yéSterday. Rear Adm. Oscar C. Badger, com-~ mander of the Tokyo bay task force, revealed the final timetable for the sea-borne landings to correspondents aboard his flagship, the cruiser San Diego. Fifteen minutes after a marine battalion takes over the three fortified islands on the approaches to Yokosuka naval base tomorrow, a picked crew from the American battleship Iowa will go aboard the wrecked hulk of the Japanese battleship Nagato just outside the base at 6:30 a. m. (4:30 p. m, today, Indianapolis time). Though the Nagato is half-sunk, her 16-inch guns still may be useable and represent a potential menace, Badger said. Only after the Nagato and the three ° islands have been secured can the fleet enter the Yokosuka base, he explained. “The Japs outwardly are exhibiting a co-operative spirit,” he said “They have obeyed all the demands submitted to them so far. However, we are not modifying in any way our intent to land fully armed and prepared. “The realities remain to be seen.” He said 300 Japanese officers and 1000 enlisted men and workmen with special identification armbands would remain on duty temporarily at the naval base until the allies take over.

Badger Enters Today Badger said his flagship would enter the base and tie up at 10:30 a. m. (3:30 p. m. today, Indianapolis time), under the present schedule. Other sea-borne infantry will land on the shores of Sagami bay only a

few miles south of Atsugi. Plans for the air-borne landing call for the first waves of airkorne troops to clear a specified area around the airfield in preparation for the arrival of MacArthur and bis staff about noon (11 o'clock tonight, (Indianapolis time). MacArthur probably will set up temporary headquarters on the airstrip in buildings formerly occupied by a Japanese suicide squadron. Later he and his staff will move to the Hayama-Zushi area, south of Atsugi and site of Emperor Hirohito’s summer palace.

11th Airborne First

First to alight at Atsugi will be the 11th airborne division. After securing MacArthur's headquarters | area, the troops will move southeast into the Hayama-Zushi district to link up with the seaborne forces at Yokosuka, 20 miles away. Since only 200 to 250 transports a day can-land-at-Atsugi, the fnitial|

the Tokyo "area. Once sufficient strength has been built up, however, the troops will move into the city and MacArthur will establish permanent headguarters there. Thousands of carrier and landbased planes will fly overhead on the watch for any Japanese treachery. Guns of warships will be trained on the enemy shores and the occupation troops will be fully armed—just in case, Halsey Stands on Bridge Halsey's triumphant entrance into Tokyo bay came at 7:08 a. m. today (5:08 p. m.

lowed the command ship Teton, which * will serve as MacArthur's floating staff ship, the American battleships Iowa and South Dakota, the British battleship Duke of York, the American cruiser San Juan, and three hospital ships, the U. 8. S. Benevolent, the U. 8. 8. Solace and the Dutch-manned, British-owned Tjitjaleneka. Behind them stretched a seeming never-ending procession of ships seeking anchorage in Japan's last and greatest fortress harbor. Rear Adm. Kawaba, chief of staff of the Yokosuka naval base, and nine subordinates went aboard the cruiser San Diego, flagship of Rear Adm, Oscar C. Badger, commander of the Tokyo bay task force, for a final "pre-landing conference, Badger kept Kawaba and his staff waiting in the sun, however, while he conferred lengthily with two International Red Cross representatives, Dr. Marcel Junod, a Swiss who arrived in Japan Aug. 8. and Noto Hohara, a Japanese civilian, concerning allied prisoners. Meantime, MacArthur's headquarters in Manila announced that all Japanese forces on Morotal and Halmahera islands in the Dutch East Indies surrendered to Ma). Gen. Harry Johnson, commander of the American 93d division, last Monday and now were being disarmed. 8000 More Prisoners

American forces invaded and captured part of Morotai last year, but never landed on Halmahera. The bag of prisoners on the two islands totalled 5000 navy personnel under a Capt. Fufita and 3170 army troops under a Lt. Gen. Ishi. On Luzon Maj. Gen. William H. Gill, commander of the American 32d division, offered to provide food and medical supplies for holdout, starving Japanese troops if Lt. Gen. Tomoyuki Yamashita, the “Butcher of Bataan,” would surrender them. Yamashita already has expressed willingness to surrender once Tokyo has given him the necessary “authority.” Gen. Joseph W. Stilwell, commander of the American 10th army on Okinawa, ordered all Japanese commanders on the six main islands in the Ryukyus to establish radio contact with his headquarters as a preliminary to surrender. Leaflets containing the orders were dropped in Ishigaki, Anami-Ohun, Tokuno, Miyako, Kikisa and Iriomote islands. On long by-passed Mili atoll in the Marshall islands, 2400 Japanese prisoners were being rounded up following the island’s - surrender. The enemy troops were half-naked | and starved. { The Aleutians sent word that Vice! Adm. Frank J. Fletcher, command- | er of the North Pacific naval forces, | was gathering the greatest naval] armada seen in the area since Kiska | lio sail west to aid in the occupa: | | tion of Japan. The armada will include six car- | riers with supporting cruisers and | destroyers, 5

soup, roast beef, eggs, fish, and some kind of mixed salad that had cucumbers in it.” The Americans ate in what was formerly the mess for a kamikaze suicide outfit, but the kamikaze boys had either all committed harakiri or were eating their cucumbers somewhere else. Lackey said that a medical representative of imperial headquarters had reported that there were over 6000 allied war prisoners, including 417 hospital cases, in two camps within a radius of 10 miles of the airstrip. Col. James T. Pettus of St. Louis said: “There was a complete lack of animosity.” Lackey said Japanese photographers -and reporters were “thick as fleas.” Col. Charles T. Tench, commander of the party, was shown complete plans of the airfield’s defense. The senior officers in the American group were each given a room in the officers’ barracks with a bed covered with clean white sheets. Japanese naval ratings served as personal servants, and jumped to attention every time any American opened his mouth. Formal Introductions “When we first arrived at the field,” Pettus said, “Tench started | introducing the staff but the Japanese general through an interpreter said, ‘Oh, no, we've got a place for that."
