NOT YET CURED OF WAR
Impression of Japanese Rec. 12.30 p.m. SINGAPORE, Sept. 10. "The Japanese grasped the atomic bomb as an opportunity to get out of the war, but they are not yet cured of war," said the spokesman of Admiral Mountbatten's staff at a Press conference.
"The Japanese army, particularly in this theatre, consider themselves undefeated," he said.' "They are totally unconvinced that they didn't deserve to win."
The spokesman added that Japan at present is back where she was in 1866, and the possibility of her again rising militarily depended on what foreign support she received.
