Several of the Mispillion's officers and crewmen visited Nagasaki, Japan, and saw the city which will long be remembered as the target of one of history's first atomic weapons of war. Most of the large city has been rebuilt, but still many ruins stand as mute reminders of that August morning in 1945 when the atomic explosion rendered chaotic havoc to Nagasaki. A sign labovei serves as further reminder of that not-to-be-forgotten day of the Second World War. Children laugh and play where once radio-active rays dealt death and destruction.

This fabulous metropolis of the East, be- sides being one at the largest inter- national trading centers in the world, is also the melting pot of all races, languages, and customs of the world mixed together in the heart of an- cient China.
