Deserter’s Death Sentence Halted by Honor in Japan
In Tokyo a conscript deserter faced a drum head court martial and was to be shot, but officers halted the execution after he claimed to go home only to bid farewell to his wife and child. The man admitted drinking too much, and, spared, he is sent to the front under death sentence to be carried out by a Russian bullet, not by comrade fire. A brutal murder case drew no sympathy as a man hanged earned public praise for giving four yen to the war fund. An elderly samurai, owner of a priceless heirloom collection, plans to sell all but one sabre to aid the war effort, expressing pride in sacrifice and duty.
