THAT STILL LOOKS LIKE A SNAKE TO ME J NEW YORK, 0J.R) Vice Ad miral Marc Mitscher predicted Monday that thousands, perhaps millions, of Japanese will be or dered to fash themselves to ex plosives and blow themselves up in the path of American forces when they invade Japan. The former commander of task force 58, writing in American magazine, said that some of the Japanese "will be lashed to dyna mite. Others will be steering bombs or torpedoes.''. "The Japanese army has in structed the '200,000,000 people' of Japan to halt all invaders of their homeland by 'death-defying charges' and by 'bodily attacks against tanks,' " Mitscher wrote. "A body can ston a tank only if it is attached to dynamite. . . . Japs take calls to suicide very seriously." Mitscher said, however, that mass hari-kari will not materially lessen or postpone the Japanese defeat. Defense against the self-destroying kamikaze has been so ef fective since its first organized appearance off Leyte last Octob er that only one in 100 suicide pi lots now crashes into an Ameri can ship, Mitscher said.' No kami kaze has yet sunk an American carrier, battleship or cruiser, he said, and one destroyer was still afloat after six direct hits. Mitscher has had plenty of per sonal experience with the "divine wind," Kamikazezs have bombed him off two carrier flagships.
