Marine Gets
Citation For
3 Campaigns
Pvt. Duter Served
On Guam, Iwo Jima
For meritorious service on several
Pacific Islands, Rex T. Duter, now
with the Marine detachment at the
University, received a Marine Corps
citation this week.
The citation, signed by Maj. Gen.
G. B. Erskine, U. S. Marine Corps,
commanding officer, reads: "For
meritorious service while serving
with a Marine infantry regiment at
Bougainville, British Solomon Islands
from November 6,1943, to January,j
1944; at Guam, Marianas Islands,
from July 21, 1944, to August 15,
1944; and at Iwo Jima, Volcano
Islands, from February 21, 1945, to
March 16, 1945."
The citation continues, "In the
first of these three campaigns Cor-
poral Duter served as a radio oper-
ator; at Guam, he was a radio op-
erator; and at Iwo Jima he served
as a radio operator. Throughout
these periods of repeated action a-
gainst the enemy, his unflagging zeal
in the face of extreme hardship and
danger, and his outstanding devo-
tion to duty, were an inspiration to
all who served with his. He made
a material contribution to the suc-
cess of these operations. His exem-
plary conduct was in keeping with
the highest traditions of the United
States Naval Service."

Duter, whose home is
kee, Wisconsin, joinedt

THINK IT OVER, NIPPON:
Text of Potsdam Ultimatum
EDITOR'S NOTE: Reprinted here is the text of the Potsdam declaration all the
provisions of which the Japanese find adequate. Missing from the declaration is a
definite statement as to the status of the emperor. This, according to late dis-
patches is the point the Jap government wants clarified before accepting peace
terms.
The ultimatum contained these points:
1. Elimination "for all time" of the authority and influence of those
who led Japan into her career of conquest.
2. Occupation of points in Japanese territory to be designated by
the Allies until a "new order of peace and security" in the world is
assured.
3. Limitation of Japanese sovereignty to the main Japanese islands
of Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, Shikoku and a few ninor islands.
4. Carrying out the terms of the Cairo Declaration which would strip
Japan of all her conquests.',
5. Complete disarmament of Japanese Armed Forces.
6. No enslavement of the Japanese nation.
7. Stern justice for waa criminals.
8. Removal by the Japanese government of all obstacles to a revival
of democracy, freedom of speech, religion and thought.
9. Permission for Japan to retain such industries as will sustain her
economy and permit reparations in kind.
10.. Access for Japan to raw materials and world trade.
11. A promise to withdraw occupying Alfied forces when Japan has
established a peacefully-inclined government "in accordance with the
freely expressed will of the Japanese peqti 4.o
'MUSIC OF SPEECH'
Linguistic Institute To Hear
Pike at Rackham Wednesday

Sun Goddess, a "Son of Heaven.",
But to the Western world, the
124th emperor of Japan was not even
a regal figure. Middle age found him
pudgy, short even for his race,
stooped, his mustard colored uniform
a little too tight in the wrong places.
He carried his head thrust for-
ward as if to get his myopic, thick
lensed eyes as close as possible to
whatever there was to see.
Some authorities close to Hirohito's
court said he would have been a man
of peace if he had had his way and'
would not have gone to war withl
the United States had lie actually
held a small part of the power at-
tributed to him.
They held the opinion that he hadI
no real chance to prevent Japan's
entry into World War 11 on the side}
of the Rome-Berlin axis, assuming
that he wanted to, for the fate of
Japan, of his dynasty and of himself
was in other hands.
Actually his personal views made
little difference for he was a figure-
head, the vast powers of the throne
always wielded in his name by a
group of his subjects strong enough
to seize control.
For a decade prior io Pearl Har-
bor, the dominant group was com-
posed of generals and admirals,
and Hirohito had to do their bid-
ding. That group used the mys-
tical authority of the emperor to
regiment and dragoon the people
into war.
Whatever his personal inclination,
Hirohito dutifully played the role ex-
pected of him by the real rulers of
Japan - the generals and admirals.
In the imperial rescript proclaim-
ing Japan at war with the United
States and Britain, Hirohito called
on the "hallowed spirits of our im-
perial ancestors" and "the courage
of our subjects" to achieve victory
and make possible the preservation
of the "glory of the empire."
He repeated Japan's argument that
the United States and Britain pro-
longed the war in China by aiding
the Chunking government, thus leav-
ing Japan "no other recourse but to
appeal to arms."
The late President Franklin .
Roosevelt sent to Congress a few
days later the documented story
of the peace talks that smoke-
screened Japan's sudden Sunday
morning attack on Pearl Harbor
to bring the United States to
grips with Japan.
His message characterized it as a
record for "all history to read in
amazement, in sorrow, in horror and
in disgust."
The late president revealed that
it was not until three days after the
treacherous attack on United States
ships, men and territory, that he re-

asking this cooperation in further
efforts to preserve peace.
This answer was to the effect that
the emperor's "cherished desire" was
establishment of peace in the Pacific
and that "his majesty trusts that
the President is fully aware of this
fact."
Japan's ambassador, Kichisaburo

Nomura, and special envoy, Saburo
Kurusu were still negotiating for
"peace" in Washington on Dec. 7
when the Japanese attacked Pearl
Harbor. Upon their return to Japan
some months later, they were re-
warded with a dozen bottles of wine
and other delicacies from the emper-
or "in recognition of their conduct of
Japanese-American relations."

Flood of Joy
Boils over All
Allied World
By The Associated Press
A mighty flood of jubilation boiled
up throughout the Allied world yes-
terday (Friday) with the news that
Japan had offered to surrender.
While caution checked celebrations
in the United States, rockets soared
skyward from far Pacific basesand
American soldiers, without waiting
for an official end to hostilities,
surged through the streets of London
cheering and singing.
Firecrackers exploded the length
and breadth of Free China, and the
canyon-like str.;ets of Chunking
were jammed with men, women
and children yelling their delight
at the imminent end of the "dwarf
devils" aggression.
America watched and waited.
Bursts of torn paper fluttered down
from New York's skyscrapers and
troops returning from Europe set
up a jubilant din when they heard
the report that led them to believe
they might be going home instead of
toward Tokyo.
New York's 14,800 policemen were
ordered to stand by for a demonstra-
tion far greater than the one V-E
Day. %w i ver the actual end of the
war should come.
Washington was quiet but tension
mounted hourly.
Ticker tape was showered down
from some buildings in Detroit
but most large cities, like the small
towns, awaited developments.
There was no such calm at Pearl
Harbor, scene of the sneak attack
that brought the United States into
