(Copyright, 1946, by Ely Culbertson}

Tokyo, Oct. 2 (UP).-Ambassador George Atcheson, Jr., of the United States to-day told the Allied Council that the Soviet assertions that Gen MacArthur was supporting "a camou finged Japanese General Staff" were false.

The Council Chairman's remarks were made after Lt-Gen Kuzma Derevyanko, Soviet member, read a long statement in which he suggested that Gen MacArthur might be accused of gross negligence in per- mitting the Japanese Government to allow former Imperial Navy, Army and Intelligence Operations officers to function on the Demobilisation Ebard.

Mr Atcheson said the Board's func-. tion was solely to assist SCAP, and. former officers of Japanese armed services were used only because, thoy: were best qualified.

He remarked repeatedly that if any member of the Council had any specific information impilcating any members of the Japanese board in war crimes or other illegal actions, General MacArthur would be glad to receive it.

Regarding

Gen Derevyanko's "great anxiety" about the Board's work, Mr Atcheson bluntly said, "The only anxiety I have felt is because
