Ahh, Deming was working under MacArthur I believe.
Perhaps he cold have accomplished the same thing if MacArthur had decided to give into the popular sentiment and punish the Japanese but I doubt it. Deming just didn't have that war hero status to pull it of AFAIK. I am sure he had the smarts to do it, but possibly he would not even have been there if MacArthur had not made it possible.
