(95)
NEW YORK, N. Y. -- Thousands gather in a monster meeting to protest against Japan's Manchurian activities. Police keep a watchful eye while speakers exhort their audiences to action and demand peace for the homeland.

U. S. STRATEGISTS AT HAWAII
Commander-in-Chief, President Roosevelt convenes with General MacArthur, Admiral Nimitz and Admiral Leahy, after arriving from the mainland on a sleek, modern cruiser.
Their meeting is loaded with significance, as all attention is centered on a huge map of the western Pacific, with particular attention directed at the Philippines and Tokio.
On the parade grounds, the famous Seventh Regiment, heroes of the Aleutian outpost and the Kwajelein campaigns, pass in review.
YANKS ADVANCE IN GUAM
From their established beachhead, the Yanks attack Japs who are entrenched at Point Chonito, a high land. Mortar fire is particularly effective.
General Holland Smith, U.S.M.C., watches his men advance and capture their objective. Jap dead cover the ground in droves, and Jap installations are totally destroyed. One of the first tasks of the Seabees was the erection of a flag pole. The Stars and Stripes are restored to Guam.
YANKS ADVANCE IN FRANCE
We watch the Yank pattern of attack in France. Terrific bombing and artillery fire combine to disrupt Nazi ground transport, and to precede the advance of Yank infantry and tank units.
Town after town is found in utter ruins. Enemy equipment lies shattered everywhere and prisoners are secured in telling numbers. Jeeps race along, and the Doughboys march by in a celebrating mood.
DEEP SHELTERS
LONDON -- Buzz-bombs force Londoners to seek safety in their recently completed Deep Shelters. Life within their confines does not differ too greatly from normal life above ground.

ADVANCE INFORMATION FOR NEWSPAPER PUBLICITY AND EXPLOITATION
JAPS SIGN SURRENDER PAPERS
On the broad decks of the U.S.S. "Missouri," in Tokio Bay, the official Japanese delegation signs the formal surrender documents. Military representatives of each of the victorious Allied powers, then affix their signatures, and hostilities are ended.
General MacArthur, Supreme Commander for the Allies, speaks to the gathering, and to the world, stating that hostilities have ceased, and that with God's help, war will be ended forever.
THE PRESIDENT SPEAKS
In Washington, President Truman offers thanks for the Allied victory, and summons America to work as diligently in the post-war period as she did in the prosecution of the war.
TOKIO, THE DESOLATE CITY
As Yanks occupy the Japanese capital they see that Tokio is a ruined city. The antiquated Jap fire-fighting equipment was unable to save immense areas which were burned out by fire bomb raids. Yet, most of the buildings in the Mikado's compound are untouched.
THE AFUNA HORROR CAMP
The beatings which Yank prisoners of war took from Jap torture weapons was enough --but the continuous diet of low grade Jap food was too much. To be freed from such tortures produces a very happy lot of Americans.
