But they did not go as far as the state department would have liked. The Siamese affair has a direct bearing on the slowly-

developing foreign policy of the United States. It indicates a tendency -te cham- « pion the cause of the smaller peoples, as against continuance of the old colonial and imperial system. : Although Siam Fx was a free state, * Washington felt # that its future in- * " dependence was A". being “threatened. * fTheattitude taken toward

If the same principles are applied’

vigorously toward Korea, IndoChina, the Dutch East Indies, Burma; India, Palestine and other areas, it is evident that the United States will be regarded by the mil lions of people involve@“asg a true champion of human liberty in a re-made world. The smaller countries are watching closely. Any inconsistency shown by the United States might prove a seri- | ous estback to confidence in the! United Nations Organization, whose first assembly is set for next week.| In its present course, the United| States is following a difficult path.

GEN. HOMMA'S TRIAL STARTED

Witness Says Save’ Camp 500 Yards From Death March.

By WILLIAM C. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent MANILA, Jan. 3.~Lt.. Gen, Masaharu Homma maintained - his headquarters only 500 yards from the rdad along which American and Filipino soldiers were forced on the Bataan death march, the first witness testified today at his war crimes trial. Homma, who commanded Japanese forces in the Philippines in 1941-42, had pleaded innocent to charges that he was responsible for the death march and scores of other atrocities in the Philippines. Apparently to show that it would have been impossible for Homma

infamous march, the prosecution called Maj. Gen. Tushimitso Takatsu, who had been one of Homma’'s staff officers, to describe the { location of headquarters.

not to have been aware of the

afternoon session after the U, 8. military commission trying Homma had denied a defense motion for dismissal of the case on the grounds that the court lacked jurisdiction. The commission also denied a subsequent defense request for a 10day postponement to permit additional preparations for the trial. The prosecution introduced copies of The Hague pact on laws of war, the Geneva Red Cross convention and the Geneva pact of 1929 regarding treatment of prisoners of War, All were signed by Japan and ‘the prosecution indicated it would charge Homma violated all. Homma was charged specifically in the indictment with responsibility for 80,735 slayings and tortures— 20,000 more than Gen; Tomoyuki Yamashita who. recently was convicted and sentenced to death by hanging. Deaths included "those in the wanton bombing of Manila after Gen. Douglas MacArthur’ had declared it an open city.

BLAZE AT PACKARD PLANT A fire this morning in the base-

ment of the Packard Mfg. Corp. warehouse, 117-119 N. Noble st., was {caused by an overheated furnace.

: Takgtsu began testifying at the | Little damage was reported.

SHIP GOAL TO 20 UPSTATE TOWNS

W. G. Stockton, district manager of the solid fuels administration, said that 30 to 40 carloads of emergency coal would be shipped to 20 northeastern Indiana communi ties today. The emergency shipments will be the first of the winter, Mr. Stockton said shortage reports from dealer have slacked after the break in

the cold weather and that the situation was “much better than last

year.” Communities to receive shipments include Elkhart, Peru, Kokomo,

Monticello, Albany, Anderson, Lowell, Wanatah, Moreland and Hartford City. At Hartford City, coal dealers were rationing coal at the request of Mayor W. H. Gardiner. Two carloads will be shipped to the city today by the SFA. Rep. Forest Harness (R. Ind) told Mayor Gardiner the problem probably was an administrative one and promised to appeal to federal

authorities if the shortage per-|

sisted.
