Korea urged to extend voting rights to people
Military governor in Korea urged the Korean legislature to grant voting rights to the people at the earliest practicable moment. He compared this push to aid Greece and Turkey receiving U.S. support only with representative government, citing efforts by Lt. Gen. Hedge and motions for a general franchise law. A planned revival of the Chungking provisional government was noted as a potential issue. In Los Angeles, Rev. Joan Johnson died at 64 after lengthy illness, former president of the Union of Evangelical Christians in America and Canada, and former editor of The Gospel Word.
