Jap ‘Liberals’

TOKYO-—The so-called “Liberal” party of Japan, now strongly represented in the new government, headed by Kijuro Shidehara, makes no bones about playing ball with some of the most feudalistic and reactionary elements of the country. This is the conclusion to which I have come after an interview with Ichiro Hatoyama, the leader . of what is termed the “New Japan Liberal Party.” : The 63-year-old Hatoyama, dressed in a tweed jacket and speaking English, reclined on a western-style davenport in front of a life-size western nude. painting and smoked American cigarets, as we talked, in his comfortable residence in a Tokyo suburb. Displaying amézing candor, or naivete, I could not decide which, the gray-mous-tached Hatoyama said that his “Liberal” party would follow the policy of “hands off” the monopolistic “Zaibatsu.” These big-shot industrialists, bankers and financiers constitute the principal control of Japans economic life, in the four huge Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo and Yasuda combines,

BARON SHIDEHARA, the new “Liberal” premier, is a son-in-law of the Iwasaki family, which owns These four main commercial houses, unhampered by anything such as the Sherman antitrust laws, are widely criticized in the United States for working part and parcel with the Japanese militarists in the Olympian scheme of colonial expansion, designed, in their cunning little minds, to give Japan control of the whole world, in time—if all went well. Partly by paying starvation wages to Japanese coolie labor they were able to saturate the world with ridiculously low-priced commodities, which brought

IN REPLY to those optimists who visualize the quick development of a defense against the atomic bomb, I can quote what one high-ranking officér in the Manhattan district, the army organization which controls the atomic bomb project, told me: There is no defense against the atomic bomb. Yesterday I pictured the kind of nation that scientists believe we would become if the world em-

barks upon a super-armament atomic bomb race-—cities abandoned, the population scattered

uniformly over the countryside, factories and government offices located in tunnels under the Rocky mountains. You can, of course visualize the sea coasts and boundaries of the nation protected by a ring of radar stations whose invisible electric beams constantly swept the sky for enemy planes or rockets. Associated with them would be great batteries of anti-aircraft guns using shells equipped with the new radio proximity fuse that proved so effective in world war II. There would also be great fiying fields with underground hangars, ready at an instant’s notice to send their pursuit planes into the air,

Air Power Developments YOU MAY likewise imagine that the next few years will see many improvements in defensive weapons and in the range of airplanes. This is, of course, quite reasonable. In a press conference a few days after the.surrender of Japan, Gen. Henry H. Arnold, commander

back billions of yen, used to help finance military expansion. But the “Liberal” leader Hatoyama defended them today on the grounds that “they worked hard for the war effort.” ) At present there are only 35 “Liberals” in the Japanese, diet. Hatoyama estimated that only 10 out of this number had remained faithful during the war. The rest turned collaborationist. He hoped to have 150 members in the new diet after the January elections. Since the total diet membership is 464, it will be

necessary for the “Liberals” to combine with labor

if they are to attempt to control the diet.

Diet Control

LABOR at present has 12 members in the diet, Hatoyama said, only four of whom rejected the temptation to turn collaborationist. He expects labor to have perhaps 50 seats in the new diet. The labor and “Liberal” parties combined will have only 200 out of the 464 seats, even if Hatoyama's estimates are fully realized. He thinks that 200 will be enough for control, however, because he expects splits in the old totalitarian gang, who ruled the war as a party called the “Imperial Rule Assistance Association.” Hatoyama said that the totalitarians, many of whom are trying to turn “Liberal” overnight, now have no acknowledged leader. The fact, however, that Hatoyama expects a sizeable percentage of the old gang in the diet, even after the new elections, is a commentary in itself. Even if Hatoyama’s “Liberals” should gain control it would seem in many ways to be a mere change of party labels—except that the “Liberals” are professedly anti-militarist, while at the same time blithely condoning the feudalistic economic system, which many outside Japan blame as one of the precipitants of the war, ; Copyright, 1045, by The Indianapolis Times and The Chicago Daily News, Inc.

of the army air forces, disclosed some of the new developments in air power. One was a super-bomber with a range three times greater than that of the B-29. Another was a method of controlling and directing bombs by means of television, The third is a new guiding device by which rockets will be drawn to their targets by the reaction of the rocket to light, heat, or metal in the target. Gen. Arnold told the conference, “Against the supersonic planes and the highly developed guided missiles of the future, it is probable that a defense in the form of missles automatically seeking out these planes and missles and destroying them or some of them in the air, or stratosphere will be developed.”

Atomic Bomb Race BUT WHATEVER improvements you may visualize, in defensive warfare methods in the next few years, you will have to keep in mind one important fact: The difference in. destructive power between the atomic bomb and the biggest block-buster used in world war II, If New York were attacked by the equivalent of 100 B-29’s all carrying block-busters and if the defense knocked down 99 of the 100 over the Atlantic ocean, that 100th plane would do relatively little damage. But if the 100 planes carried atomic bombs, that 100th plane would be enough to account for the total destruction of New York' City. That is the difference in the situation today. Once the atomic bomb race is under way, our military establishment will have to maintain a 24hour, 365-day a year alert, never knowing what second will be the signal for the atomic equivalent of the sneak attack at Pearl Harbor,

that if he cries he will be fondled. Cries Mean Something

Crying is baby’s most useful method of attracting attention—he uses very distinct cries for different things, That harsh, persistent cry, peated with such fervor that the only time baby stops is when he has momentarily lost his breath, simply means he is hungry, according to the Illinois State Medical society, He distinctly wants you to know it’s meal time. The healthy, thriving baby whose mother follows the doctor's’ advice about when and what to feed him usually does not cry for food unless mother is a little late with the meal. Should he start the hunger cry well ahead of meal time or after he has been fed, ask the doctor whether baby needs bigger or more frequent feedings. Don’t just feed him every time he cries.

Cry of Pain Is Sharp

The cry of pain is usually sharp and agonized. If the baby draws his knees up and holds his thighs close to his stomach, it may mean he has colic, The colic cry generally comes at a regular time of day or night. The pathetic cry may also be caused by earache, In either case or whenever the baby’s cry seems to be a disturbing one of pain, a doctor should be called. A wall or whimper,
