Ja ps Want To Adopt American
Police Order, State Official Says
EAST LANSING, July 16-(IP)--
Japanese police officials would like
to study American law-enforcement
methods, Commissioner Oscar G.
Olander of the Michigan State Police
said here today.
Olander, who just returned from
a four-month survey of police forces'
in Japanese cities of less than 50,000
population at the War Department's
request, said that post-war Japan
'should have a more democratic police
force providing greater service to the
people'.
He was accompanied on his trip
by Capt. Harold Mulbar of the State
police.
Bowed To Police
Before the surrender, Olander said,
the Japanese police were "Arrogant
and discourteous and the people were
subservient to them. They had to
bow to the police on the streets."
His recommendations, he continu-
ed, were made to General MacArthur
personally and while they must be
released only by the supreme com-
mander, Olander said that generally
they provided for "modernization" of
U.S., Russian,

Held As Spies
Called 'Clandestine
Operatives' By Yanks
FRANKFURT, Germany, July 16:
-(P)-American and Soviet armies
in Germany engaged in a strange un-
dercover clash of intelligence services
ionight.
The Rusians were believed to be
holding two American officers in-
So n mu n icado in Soviet territory and
the U.S. Army said it was releasing
to the Red Army three Russians.
rfP'icially described as "clandestine
operatives in the U.S. Zone of Berlin."
The two Americans believed held in
the Russian zone are Capt. Harold
Cobin of New York and Newark, N.J.,
and Lt. George Wyatt of Oklahoma
City, OkIa., missing since they were
ceen boarding a train for Oranien-
burg in the Soviet zone July 4.
U.S. officers declined to deny there
was any large-scale espionage activ-
ity in Gemany. As speculation grew
on the extent of spy activity, officers
at army headquarters in Frankfurt
refused to say whether they suspect-
ed extensive Russian intelligence
operations in the American zone.
Likewise, they refused to deny or
confirm rumors that arrests were
made in addition to the three sus-
pected Russians operators, - who,
dressed as civilians, were picked up
two weeks ago in the American zone
of Berlin.
the Nipponese forces including a new
training system, additional equip-
ment, selection of recruits on a high-
er plane and elimination of non-
police duties,
Morale Low
He described Japanese policemen
as "under-paid, ill-equipped, poorly
uniformed and with low morale" but
that considering those handicaps the
force is doing "a very good job" of
carrying out General MacArthur's
directives.
Officials who were closely connect-
[d with the Japanese military-in-
^luding the feared "thought police"
-have been eliminated, Olander add-
ed, as a national organization, the
Japanese police had many military
characteristics, he said, and perform-
ed many functions which do not fall
to American law-enforcement offi-
cers. There are between 91,000 and
93,000 policemen for the home
islands, selected by a semi-civil ser-
vice process, who live for the most
part in "watch boxes" scattered
throughout the countryside. Salaries
start at about $20 monthly and range
upward as allowances are made for
families.
Diffiult Job
"Because of the overcrowded con-
ditions on the islands, the lack of
modern equipment, and the terrific
damage caused by bombings, their
job is very difficult," the commission-
er commented. "They suffer particu-
larly from lack of communication
facilities."
"In every vicinity," he continued,
"they were willing to give us any-
thing we asked for and I thing they
were sincere. Likewise, while we did
not come into contact with many
civilians, when we did they treated
us with every respect and I could see
no traces of resentment.

roof, the back porch, the study, all
began to burn . . . There was no
way of escape in any direction . . .
At last our family became separated.
If only I was to be saved, I must try
to save my life! I jumped into a little
concrete basin, containing water for
fire-fighting . . . It was about two
feet long and one foot wide . . . I
made myself as little as possible, put
even my head into the water and
stayed there about three hours and
a half with a bucket over my head
... the water in the basin in which
I crouched warmed up almost to the
boiling point, it steamed away . . .
when I had slowly gotten back to out
home . . .there was nothing left of
the house .
" . . . The terrible happenings of
only half a month ago have gradual-
ly become hazy and now seem to
have occurred a year or even two
years ago, like things in a dream.
For our children's sake, I prayed that
at least one of us might live through
the raid, but now I am beginning to
think once more of the things I
owned, thinking, 'Too bad that was
burned, too bad this is gone; it was
too bad to lose that; if only we had
that, it would be nice' . . . I have
recovered enough to think once more
about such things."
"Now that both of us are alive,
there is nothing that I should be
more thankful about. Also, now I
am deeply thankful that we had
sent mother and our grandchild into
the country. If they had stayed,
there would no doubt have been three
more dead within our gate..."
CONDEMNED TO DIE AS TRAI-

Nine Jews Are Seized
By Outlaw Polish Bands
WARSAW, July 16-(P)--Nine Jews
were reported today to have been
seized by outlawed NSZ bands as
hostages for nine Poles executed Sun-
day for participating in the July 4
pogrom at Kielce.
The reports did not indicate the
fate of the nine Jews, although ad-
vices from Kielce, where they were
abducted, said they were threatened
with death at the time of their
seizure if the lives of the nine Poles
were taken.
University Will
Offer Refresher,
Term For Vets
A four week Refresher Course will
be offered this summer by the Uni-
versity to enable newly returning
veterans to review their formal know-
ledge and accustom themselves to
academic work before the beginning
of the regular fall term, according
to Prof. Clark Hopkins, associate
director of the Veterans Service
Bureau.
The course will only accommodate
1800 students, Prof. Hopkins warned.
He suggested that students know-
ing veterans planning to enter the
University next fall tell their friends
about the Refresher Course. Applica-
tions should be submitted by August
1 and the four week term will begin
August 15, he said.
"Recommendations by the 900 vet-
erans who took the course last spring
have been used as a basis for making
a number of improvements," Hop-
kins declared. "Adequate academic
counseling will be made available to
the veterans in this course."
A number of program changes
have been made at the veterans sug-
gestions according to Prof. Hopkins
which include the addition of sever-
al engineering courses and altera-
tions of te Survey Course lectures
which are designed to aid the vet-
erans readjustment to academic
work.
Vocal Recital Planned,...
Yves Tinayre, French baritone, will
present the first of two recitals on
vocal music of the Medieval and Ren-
aissance periods at 8:30 p.m. Sunday
in the First Presbyterian Church.
Isolationists Jolted By Loan Bill,
Stassen Victory' - Prof. Slosson
Isolationism in the United States
has received two major blows in as
many weeks, Prof. Preston W. Slos-
son said yesterday in his weekly lec-
ture series analyzing the news at the
Rackham Building.
The first defeat was last week's
election of the Stassen-backed candi-
dates in Minnesota; this week, he
said, the passage of the British loan
by such a-great margin in the House
of Representatives was an extremely
emphatic assertion of international-
ist forces.
Interesting points connected with
the heavy vote in favor of the loan,
Prof. Slosson asserted, were its last
minute jeopardization by strong
United States resentment of Bri-
tish arrests in Palestine in connec-
tion with the Jewish problem and
Hopwood Awards Offered
In Four Fields of Writing
Hopwood Awards for creative writ-
- ing will be pr'esented this summer in
four fields of writing-drama, essay,
fiction, and poetry, it was announced
yesterday.
To be eligible to compete in the
contest, students must be regularly
enrolled in the summer session, must
be doing work of passing grade in
all courses, and must be enrolled in
one course in English composition in
the English department or in the
journalism department.
There will be eight awards, one of
$75, and one of $50, in each of the
four fields. All manuscripts must be
in the Hopwood Room by 4:30 p.m.
Friday, August 9. Distribution of
prizes will take place at 5 p.m. Thurs-
day, August 15.
the fact that several members of both
the Republican and Democratic
parties made speeches favorable to
the loan, based not on economic is-
sues, but upon grounds of interna-
tional politics.
If a Russian loan should come up
in the future, he pointed out, the
same argument would not be pos-
sible.
Commenting on other items of do-
-mestic interest, Prof. Slosson was
unable to report any progress in the
question of OPA revival.
"It looks as though the deadlock
between the President and Congress
simply continues," he remarked.
Touching on the fate of Gen. Mi-
hailovic in Yugoslavia, Prof. Slosson
asserted that here is a complicated
and very tragic story of a clash be-
tween kliberators. Prof. Slosson put
the causes of the general's fate to an
undoubted personal rivalry between
Gen. Mihailovic and Gen. Tito and
more important, the concern of each
with the political future of their
country-Gen. Tito representing a
republican dictatorship with Soviet
leanings and Gen. Mihailovic backing
the restitution of royalist conser-
vative forces. This is not the first
time in history, he pointed out, that
two liberators have perhaps resorted
to dealings with the enemy in con-
flict with each other.
