Hirohito May
Abdicate Throne
TOKYO, (#*) — Both Japanese
and foreigners speculated Satur
day on whether Emperor Hirohito
would make a gesture of some sort
in sympathy with his former ad
visers, seven of whom were sen
enced to hang yesterday and 18
ko prison.
There have been consistent ru
mors since Japan surrendered
that the Emperor would abdicate
in favor of a regency for his son.
Most observers felt, however, that
the Emperor would stay where he
is—on the throne.
No date for the execution of the
Japanese war leaders has been
set. The list of those to be execu
ted is headed by former premier
Hideki Tojo. They have until Nov.
19 to petition Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur for clemency, who may re
duce sentences but not raise them.
The president of the court that
convicted the 25 Japanese leaders
Friday, Sir William Webb of Aus
tralia, censured the Emperor as
the leader of the Japanese in the
war and said he could not escape
responsibility. The Emperor was
granted immunity.
