TREATMENT OF PRISONERS
JAPANESE PROPAGANDA COUNTER-ATTACK. WILD CHARGES AND THREATS. (By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.40 p.m.) WASHINGTON, September 22. The Office of War Information stated that American revelations of Japanese mistreatment of prisoners had spurred the Tokio radio to attempt a propaganda counter-attack. A Japanese language broadcast said the United States treatment of Japanese nationals would go down in history as a smear on the claim of American humanitarianism, and also broadcast a threatening editorial of the “Shanghai Times,” urging that British and American nationals in Japan and occupied China should be herded together and driven into the interior, where there are no modern facilities.
