1. The program "War Trial Reports" presenting testimony and evidence of the progress of war trials, has been in effect since the Yokohama trials began. In June, 1946, this program was switched to cover the Tokyo trials for a twenty minute period daily except Sundays, on which days time is devotad to trial observations by representives of leading Tokyo newspapers.

2. Concurrently, the "War Trial Summary", presenting a summation of highlights of trials for the week and ?????? of testimony, with commentaries by competent trial observers, is broadcast every Saturday night except during court recesses.

3. During the Yokohama trials semi-weekly recordings through the "Man On The Street" program have been presented, to give the "average man" in attendance the opportunity to express his views of the trials.

4. In addition to these programs an undetermined numbers of references, examples discussions, roundtables and news items have been presented. Each has been concered with direct quotations of, or reference to, Japan's war guilt, or indirect reference to the trials or the defeat which ultira-nationalistic leaders brought upon Japan.
