Document Signed 24 Years Ago Ended WWII
TOKYO (UPl)—The signing
of a surrender document on this
day two dozen years ago
officially ended World War H
and set Japan on a peaceful
course that has led to
astonishing prosperity.
Two Men Arrested
In Tear Gas Bombing
CUSSETA, Ga. (UPI)— Two
young men, who lobbed a tear c
gas bomb into a Negro home s
here Saturday, were arrested 1
Monday but authorities did not j
connect the bombing with two e
fires during the weekend.
Authorities dismissed the j
bombing as “malicious mis- c
chief” and released the two as i
ter levying a fine. Ohattahoo- j
chee County Sheriff W. D. Har- a
ry refused to Identify the men, v
but Mayor H. E. Hobbs said
one was a Ft. Benning soldier, j
the other a local teenager. a
Ft. Benning is only two miles 1,
from here. Harry said the tear t
gas was in a U. S. Army can- j
nlster.
Local Negro leader DeWitt r
Thomas said, “They let them
off with a fine. That’s too easy, t
We think the matter should go s
before the grand jury.” t

Training Suggestions
For the Tyro Footballer
By WAYNE G. —
BRANDSTADT, M.D.
About this time of year
preseason football training
takes its toll in the form of
heat stroke. Most such cases
can be prevented by observ
ing the following sugges
tions : Prospective players
should avoid summer work
in an air-conditioned en
vironment but should work
where they can become ac
climated to the heat. Drink
ing six to eight ounces of
fluid every hour will prevent
heat cramps. If sweating is
profuse, salt should be added
in the proportion of one tea
spoonful to six quarts of
water.
A player’s weight should
be recorded before and after
each practice session. If he
loses more than 3 per cent of
his normal weight during
practice, he is not drinking
enough water. Players
should report all headaches,
excessive fatigue, sleepless
ness and loss of appetite to
the coach. A critique period
after practice helps the play
er to relax and cool off be
fore his next meal. The
coach should shorten the
practice session if, in addi
tion to the heat, the humidity
is high. Rubber sweat shirts
should never be worn as an
aid to conditioning.
Q —ls there any way a
parent can detect whether
their children practice mas
turbation?
A—No. All children at one
time or another show an in
terest in touching or stimu
lating their genitals. False
ideas of the damage this
does to their minds or h.ter
development as solid citizens
and good marital partners
have led to needless worry
on the part of many parents.
For further reassurance, I
strongly urge you to send for
Study Guide No. 3 which
deals with this subject. It is
put out by SIECUS Publica
tions Office, 1855 Broadway,
New York, N.Y. 10023. The
price is 50 cents.
Q—My daughter, 5, fre
quently complains that her
stomach hurts. Could this be
worms or something more
serious?
A—Although most stomach
aches are not serious, a few
may be. If the pain is ac
companied by fever or
vomiting, you should call
your doctor. In the absence
of these symptoms, the com
monest cause is indigestion
(eating too much, too fast or
the wrong foods). Allow the
child to rest and give her a
light diet until she has re- i
covered. In some children a
food allergy is the urd -ly
ing cause. Worms are , pos
sibility and can usually be
diagnosed by closely ex
amining the child’s stools.

Delays School
In Emanuel
ATLANTA (UPI) — The Citi
zens Constitutional Committee
for Education gained at least a
temporary victory Monday and
the Emanuel County school sys
tem will not open today as
scheduled.
Judge Walter McMillan issued
the restraining order Monday
and predicted it would be at
least seven days before the sys
tem could open its doors for
classes. However, extra-curricu
lar activities, such as the foot-
la supplied by the United
States.
That treaty, already under
heavy attack from the left, will
be the big issue in Japan during
1970 when it is subject to
renewal.
Prime Minister Eisaku Sato’s
ruling, conservative and pro-
American government is deter
mined to extend the treaty next
June, regardless of political
cost.
Could Cause Collapse
The cost could include the
collapse of the Sato government.
Former Prime Minister Nobu
suke Klshi, Sato’s brother,
was farced to resign after
ball game Friday night, will not
be affected.
The committee sought a re
straining order after the Eman
ual County school board submit
ted a desegregation plan with
federal authorities which would
have involved busing a large
number of children to achieve
the required degree of integra
tion within the system.
McMillan said the committee
and the school board will try to
hammer out some sort of com
promise this week.

ramming the treaty through the
Diet in 1960.
The opposition parties, labor
unions and many students and
intellectuals are firmly opposed
to the treaty.
There is a nationwide student
rebellion on university campu
ses. The ultimate goal of the
most militant student radicals
is the destruction of the Sato
government and the abrogation
of the treaty.
Japanese soldiers are receiv
ing intensive riot training in
case they are needed to quell
violence prompted by opposition
to the treaty.
The treaty protects Jaan
from aggression and makes it
possible for the government to
spend less in its own defense
than other nations of compara
ble wealth.
What, then, are the objections
to the treaty?
Advocates Unarmed Neutrality
The Japan Socialist party, the
nation’s second most powerful
political force, topped in
political power only by Sato’s
Liberal Democratic party, ad
vocates a national policy of
unarmed neutrality.
me mutual security pact,
which calls for an armed
Japan, is in direct conflict with
this policy.
Critics of the treaty maintain
Japan needs no protection from
aggression. They contend the
Soviet Union and Japan are
now on good terms and that
Communist China has neither
the inclination nor capacity for
aggression against Japan.
Some critics of the treaty
who admit that Communist
China might some day be a
threat to Japan favor signing a
peace treaty with Peking. This
would be difficult, and probably
impossible, if the treaty with
the United States is maintained,
they argue.
The treaty provides for U.S.
bases in Japan andi Ok’nawa,
the Pacific island the Japanese
lost in World War n and now
demand the United States
return.
Those bases are an irritant to
many Japanese. Fifty per cent
of Japanese polled recently by
the Yomiuri newspaper thought
U.S. bases in Japan unnecessa
ry.
To Talk About Treaty
President Nixon and Sato will
meet in Washington this fall to
talk about the treaty and
Okinawa.
Sato, who is under criticism
from the left because of the
treaty, does not want to come
home empty handed. He would
like to return with a firm date
for the reversion of Okinawa to
Japan. Such a plum would
make it easier for him to
secure public acceptance for
extension of the treaty. Sato
could reasonably be expected to
explain all this to Nixon, who
also wants the treaty extended.
Unlike the Japanese who
signed that surrender document
on the decks of the battleship
Missouri 24 years ago, Sato has
a strong bargaining position.
The two-way trade between
the United States and Japan
has reached $7 billion a year.
The post-war relationship be
tween the two nations has been
profitable and the governments
of buui countries ao not want to finish over extending the
see it eroded by a fight to the treaty.
