One of the major facets of a political about-face was the creation of six political parties from the wartime Dai Nippon Seijikai, the political association of great Japan, a totalitarian party which replaced the imperial rule assistance association.

Another was abolition of compulsory military training. Chinese sources charged that Japanese political manipulations were designed to create the semblance of a democracy so the length and severity of Allied occupation would be lessened. Broadcasts heard by United Piess at San Francisco and by the FCC, reported extensive cabinet changes and the decision to dissolve the political association as well as other sweeping changes. Final decision In abolition of the political association will be taken at a plenary session of the lower session of the lower house of the diet hastily MacArthur to Land Next Tuesday Along With Airhorne Forces 3.

Henceforth, enlisted men will be screened out below 75 points and 37 years of age so as not to endanger any man's chance of early release and to avoid wasting shipping space. Meanwhile, the air forces also disclose dthat officers whose retention Is no longer a military necessity will be released on a basis of three factors their service point scores, their desires and their efficiency index. Now eligible for release when their services are no longer required are flight officers with point scores of 36, second lieutenants with 42, first lieutenants with 58 and captains and higher ranks with 70 points. Officers with these scores may be discharged on request as soon as their services are no longer needed. Those who desire to remain will be chosen on the basis of their efficiency index which is gauged by their performance and record.

Anderson said the scaling down of the scores for enlisted men going overseas was based on the probable supply of men with low point scores.
