Recovering in Hospital

Takayama's would-be accomplice, now recovering in an American army hospital from the effects of the poison, told allied intelligence officers four days ago that Takayama had accumulated 104,000 yen (about $7000) to finance the assassination. : The tipster was not otherwise identified by allied headquarters. He said Takayama planned to attack the supreme allied commander while the latter, was en route from his headquarters to his‘ home in the. U.S. embassy. He] hoped to escape in the confusion of the May day celebration which is expected to attract 250,000 persons, : Tipster Released : The tipster will be released and under the watchful eyes of U.S. military police will circulate through the crowds tomorrow in an effort to locate Takayama, . All troops in the Tokyo area were placed on “white - alert,” ready to quiel any disturbances arising from tomorrow's celebration. Headquarters officials said Gen. MacArthur would allow no additional precautions taken to safeguard him. Asked whether’ he put any credence in the report, Col. Creswell “We always investigate such reports.” Other officials said that every such report is treated as though it was “the real McCoy.” American troops and 4000 Japanese police will co-operate in safeguarding order during the May day celebration. They will guard the premier’s residence, the diet building and public parks. : No Extra Guard
