FIRST PICTURES! OCCUPATION OF JAPAN
Under the terms outlined by General MacArthur, the Allied forces of occupation move into Japan.
The powerful U. S. 3rd Fleet lifts anchor and steams into Tokio's lower bay, where Jap pilots board our vessels to assure safe conduct through the enemy waters. Admiral Halsey on his flagship, the dreadnaught Missouri, welcomes Admiral Nimitz aboard.
From Okinawa, huge air transports, including the "Tokio Trolley," bring the 11th Airborne Division to a landing at Atsugi Airfield, 18 miles from Tokio. Jap officers turn the field over to the Yanks, and the Stars and Stripes are raised over the enemy homeland. Jap soldiers become more bewildered as overjoyed Yank soldiers are freed from prison camps. The field made ready, General MacArthur arrives in his plane--the "Bataan." Sporting his corn cob pipe, he is soon whisked away by car to Yokohama, where after driving through the ruined city he sets up headquarters at The Grand Hotel.
U. S. Marines land at Futtsu Saki and fleet units enter Yokosuka Bay to take the surrender of the huge naval base there, from (illegible text) by the harbor lies the shattered bulk of the 18,000 ton battleship Nagato--symbolic of the depths to which the (illegible text).

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.
