Opposipton Leader
Churchill spoke as leader of the
government's Conservative opposi-
tion, a position to which he was
relegated by the July election. He
yielded his position as a Big Three
leader late in the Potsdam confer-
ence to Prime Minister Clement Att-
lee.
Generalissimo Stalin was inform-
ed that "we coptemplated using an
explosive of incomparable power
against Japan,” he said "It is to
thia atomic bomb, more than any
other factor, that we may ascribe
the sudden and speedy ending of the
war against Japan." .
He credited the atomic bomb with
saving a million American and a
quarter million British lives which
he said would have been the price
of an invasion of Japan itself.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.—President Truman said today
he does not think the Japanese people will ever have a chance
to obtain revenge for their defeat in this war.
In his first peacetime conference the President declared
that if Congress goes along, the discoveries which made

MANILA. Aug 18 —Scattered
fighting continued in Northern Lu-
zon's mountains today.
American commanders spurred ef-
forts meanwhile to inform all Isolat-
ed Japanese of Emperor Hirohito's
surrender and to persuade them to
lay down their arms.
The Luzon reaction is being view-
ed by military leaders here as an
important test of whether the Jap-

the field will obey the Imperial
mandate.

At least two instances in,which
bomb carrying paper balloons land-
ed in Texas were recalled as re-
laxation of censorship permitted
details of that bizarre and ineffec-
tive Japanese attack against the
North American continent.
One such unmanned balloon,
wafted on air currents to this
country, spilled three bombs in
north Brown county before falling
near DeLeon in Comanche county
early this year. Another balloon
landed in Erath county, in the
same west central part of the state.
A crater was burned by one of
the bombs whiah exploded after
burying eight feet in red clay in
a Brown county pasture. Another
exploded in the air; the third bur-
led six feet, but did not explode.
More than 200 of the balloons
were landed by the Japs ip North

One other imperial action of the day was the naming of
royal Gen. Prince Naruhiko Higashi-Kuni to become premier
succeeding the resigned Kantaro Suzuki, putting a descend-
ant of the emperors in charge of the government for the first
time.
Hirohito’s message to MacArthur was recorded by the
Federal Communications Commission.
The message advised the Allied supreme commander
that the order ending hostilities had been issued as he di-
