The U,S, Forces gave Japan two weeks' grace to set food on Japanese mainland after Japan  accepted the Potsdam  Declaration. During these two weeks, some government officers had burnt a lot of documents, and some had privatized war materials. However, no looting was said to have taken place. People say that they  were deeply impressed to see the train coming into the station as usual. It seemed to be telling that peaceful daily life disrupted by the war would come back again. It is amazing!  Common people had restored their vitality not from pedantic speeches about democracy but  the real trains moving just as they did yesterday. The government has promised so called "children first" policy., but we should remember during the World War Two the Imperial Forces tried to organize elementary school kids to fight with "the enemies " which has introduced democracy. Don't take advantage of children! Don't manipulate persons!
