Japanese POWs to be studied in Huntsville for democratic indoctrination
The bulk of about 5,000 Japanese prisoners in the U.S. will be shipped home within six weeks. Two groups, including volunteers at Huntsville Texas, will stay for a psychological research project to measure reactions to democratic ideas. The study aims to adapt materials for Japanese newspapers and broadcasts and pass results from scholars to the broader prisoner classes. A storyteller among the prisoners may help gauge rural Japanese reception of the new ideas.
