New Jap Constitution Reduces
Hiro to a Symbol, Bans Wars
TOKYO, March 6—(PP—A new
Japanese constitution renouncing
war for all time and prohibiting
tie maintenance of armed forces
was announced today.
General MacArthur, reporting
that it was drafted with his full
approval, emphasized that "the
foremost of its provisions X X X
that abolishing war as a sovereign
right of the nation X X X renders
(Japan's) future security and very
survival subject to the good faith
and justice of the peace loving
peoples of the world."...
Hirohito, who will be re-
luced from “a sacred and in-
“violable" emperor to a symbol
of state with very limited for-
mal functions, issued a special
rescript stating:
"It is my desire that the con-
— stitution of our empire be re-
vised drastically upon the ba-
sis of the general will of the
people and the principle of re-
spect for the fundamental hu-
man rights.

wish their best efforts toward ac-

(MacArthur's approval of the
constitution, maintaining the Mika-
do as a symbol of state, presumably
ends any possibility of his being
arrested as a war crimes suspect.)
The proposed constitution vests
sovereignty in the people and
strips all governmental powers
from the emperor.
It replaces the powerful
house of peers with a house of
councillors who must be elect-

It renounces “war as a sovereign

Wataru Narahashi, chief cabinet
secretary, told a press conference
the constitution "is one of the
drastic steps the government must
take" and he "hopes it will be a
bloodless revolution.".

bers of the present cabinet
may be forced to resign when
a new extension of the Mac-
Arthur-ordered political purge
is announced in a few days.
The document vests sovereignty
in the people and says the em-
peror is "a symbol of state," de-
riving "his position from the sov-
ereign will of the people." He
"never shall have powers related to
the government."
The new constitution also limits
the emperor's state functions to
such specified acts as proclaiming
elections and convoking the diet
and says these functions may be
delegated as provided by law.
It specifically states that main-
tenance of land, sea and air forces
“as well as other war potential
will never be authorized. The right 1
of belligerency of the state will not
be recognized."
The document was formulated
after intensive study and consul-
tation with allied headquarters of-ley et uxforeclosure

undertaking. For wherever those rails
touched, progress followed in their
