FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 1945 1 With The AST This week marks the ending of a five-year tour Of active duty for Lt. Col. Guy G. Mills who has served with the US Army Reserve for the last 25 years. His military career, began with the last war when Mills was a first lieutenant and captain with the Second En gineers Battalion at Fort Belvoir, Va. Prior to his returning to ac tive duty / in this war, Lt. Col. Mills was state adviser on occu pational deferments for the Ohio State Selective Service System, in Columbus, Ohio. Coming to State College-May 15, 1941, the lieutenant colonel was assistant professor of military science and tactics, becoming pro fessor on the death of Colonel Ar dery. Lt. Col. Mills was command ing officer of the AST Unit un til the recent addition of Colonel Taliaferro to the military staff. Lt. Col. Mills expects to continue his residence in State College.

Difficulty American occupation troops will have "little or- no difficulty" in keeping the rank and file of Japa nese under control, according to Dr. Carroll D. Champlin, professor of psychology. "Once the war lords are from power," the education prMes sor says, "the great majority of Japs will be only too glad to settle down to a peaceful exlstence." Because they are child-like and long-accustomed to Obeying orders, the Japanese present a much easier problem for occupation offi cials than .the • Germans, Dr. Champlin claims. The Japs, he in sists, are "too naive and provin cial" to attempt underground ac tivities. Sel-government in Japan, he adds, "will be utterly out of the question" until an entirely new generation has been educated. Al lied control of the education pro cesseg in that nation will be neces sary, he thinks, for the next 50 to 75 years.
