Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Hiroshima, 25 years after being struck by the first atomic bomb set off to kill, has become a planned and strangely unattractive city of shacks and concrete multi-storey boxes, says Star writer Mark Gayn, who visited there in 1945 shortly after the surrender of Japan in World War II.
