Japan Peace Treaty Signed at Bay City
The 48 nation pact ends the war with Japan as sundered by Pearl Harbor and sets a framework for occupation withdrawal, limited reparations, and future cooperation. Gromyko's bid to reopen negotiations failed as Dulles and others framed the treaty as a peace milestone and a setback for Soviet aims. Japanese Premier Yoshida hailed the accord as fair and generous while critics accused Moscow of duplicity.

Russia Boycotts Pact Cries War Over Far East Peace
Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko denounced a U S led conference on Japan as a tool of imperialists. He argued the proposed treaty excludes the Soviet Union and China, calls the process ridiculous, and accuses the United States of plans to use Japan as cannon fodder for aggression. He defended Soviet sovereignty over the Habornai Islands and criticized U S policy on Korea and Sakhalin.
