CONQUERED LANDS
MUST BE CLEARED OF JAPS
Rec. 1.45 p.m.
LONDON, August 6.
"It will not be_ sufficient to beat Japan herself and bring the Japanese Government to heel," said Sir Edward Campbell, formerly a British Vice-Con-sul in Java and now Parliamentary Private Secretary to Sir Kingsley Wood. "No peace with the Japanese Government must be contemplated until every individual Japanese in any island conquered by Japan has been killed, taken prisoner, or forced to return to Japan. "If they are not removed from those islands before peace is signed it will be impossible to deal with them afterwards, and -they will remain in the islands as a perpetual cancer in the sides of Britain, America, and the Netherlands, and, sooner or later, cause an infinite amount of trouble. "It is of paramount importance that measures should be taken to deal with this situation before it is too late." i
