...Japanese who has good reason to loathe Japan's ruling militarists is handsome Ken Inukai, 53, four times a Diet member. In 1932 a group of young officers murdered his 77-year-old father, Premier Ki Inukai, potent Seiyukai Party leader, whose wily political opportunism brought him the nickname...
Last week the world heard reports that the Premier's son Ken had been trying to do as he had been done by. The unconfirmed reports came from the Korean underground by way of Kilsoo K. Haan, Washington agent of the Sino-Korean People's League. They said that Ken Inukai was in a Japanese jail charged with aiding the attempted assassination (TIME, Aug. 24) of Premier General Hideki Tojo and onetime (1936-37) Premier Koki Hirota, a leader of the sinister militaristic Black Dragon Society. Ken Inukai was also charged with aiding Eurldan, a Korean terrorist group...
Even concentrated there the defenses were not enough. Last week the R.A.F. kept at the Ruhr, hit Saarbrüken (pop. 131,000) with 200-300 planes in what the conservative British Air Ministry called a raid "of outstanding success." Another night the heavy bombers swung farther east to Karlsruhe, on the upper Rhine, unloaded 200 or more bomb bays 450 miles from home, on one of the Reich's great locomotive-building centers. Still another night, Bremen, one of the targets of the three 1,000-plane raids of early summer, caught it hot & heavy...
...pages. It is the story of cold, glittery Amanda, an ambitious historical novelist, and Julian, the cold, glittery millionaire publisher whom she lures to a marriage bed with no more than "her usual annoyance at the damage to her permanent." It is also the story of ever-maudlin Ken, a kind of tame Venus's-flytrap, whom Amanda keeps around less for biological than for decorative reasons. Ken might have gone on being a tame cat indefinitely but for a quiet little country mouse named Vicky ("I like furniture and houses all warm and used and kind"), who gobbled...
Bill Davison stands by the old Chicago tradition of using a cornet instead of a trumpet, but that hardly precludes comparison with James. Bill may not rake in the shekels, but he plays good music far more consistently. Those who have been attracted to the Ken by Pee Wee Russell's fame and clarineting have invariably stayed to hear Davison. On the basis of tone alone, or ideas alone, he is undoubtedly a top-ranking musician. James may play more obviously difficult pieces, but Davison occasionally gets off some amazingly technical stuff himself, and this always in good taste...
