1:19:00
to swallow a whole new
constitution in one gulp.
1:19:02
Their cabinet
will never go for it.
1:19:04
The old cabinet wouldn't, but we've
yet to hear from the new prime minister.
1:19:09
And may I congratulate you on your
appointment, Mr. Shidehara.
1:19:12
Thank you.
1:19:14
General, I extend to you
my gratitude...
1:19:16
for the penicillin your medical
services made available to me.
1:19:21
It aided me in recovering
from a serious illness.
1:19:24
Happy to be
of assistance.
1:19:27
Diseases are conquered,
sir...
1:19:30
even very old
epidemic diseases.
1:19:35
Yes?
Sometimes, though...
1:19:37
the cure is slow
and painful.
1:19:42
Yes, of course.
1:19:45
Is there some
particular difficulty?
1:19:54
General,
our new constitution...
1:19:56
must forbid any military
establishment in Japan whatsoever.
1:20:02
There must not
be an army...
1:20:04
a navy or an air force.
1:20:07
We must renounce now
and forever...
1:20:10
the use of force as an
instrument of national power.
1:20:22
- Mr. Prime Minister, I can only...
- Please. Hear me out.
1:20:25
Of course.
1:20:27
In this way...
1:20:30
and only this way...
1:20:33
can we eliminate forever...
1:20:36
the power of
the militarists.
1:20:39
Only in this way...
1:20:41
can we reassure the world
that Japan...
1:20:45
no longer has warlike design
against any people.
1:20:52
We are a poor country...
1:20:55
with 70 million person
to feed and clothe.
