ル・モンド:惨事の写真は広島のものではない(ヘラルドトリビューン)
Le Monde says disaster pictures weren't of Hiroshima

By Doreen Carvajal             Published: May 13, 2008

PARIS: After the historian Sean Malloy found chilling photographs of Hiroshima bombing victims in the archives of the Hoover Institution of Stanford University, he vowed to resolve the mysterious origins of the film roll, which was found in a Japanese cave.

Instead, the new mystery is how academic researchers were duped into believing that grim photographs of the scattered remains of victims of a 1923 earthquake disaster outside Tokyo were scenes of the devastation from the first atomic bomb.

On Tuesday, the French daily Le Monde posted a lengthy correction after publishing two grainy black and white photographs Saturday of a pyramid of cadavers that it billed as: "Hiroshima: What the world never saw." The newspaper said the photographs, which were also newly published in the United States and Italy, were "probably not authentic."

"The first lesson of this is that archives make mistakes and historians make mistakes," said Malloy, an assistant professor at the University of California, Merced, who has published a history of the 1945 bombing, "Atomic Tragedy," that contained rare photographs from the Hoover Institution. "Hoover made a mistake and I did too."

Those photographs were part of the papers of Robert Capp, a former solider in the U.S. Army who donated the photographs in 1998 to Hoover with the explanation that they were part of a roll of film that he found in a cave in Hiroshima. He spoke about his discovery in a taped interview, imposing a restriction on publication until 2008.

Malloy sought to determine the origins of the photographer by posting an appeal for help that quickly spread through the blogosphere and brought new attention from researchers in Japan. They told Malloy that similar photographs had already been published from the earthquake, which devastated the Kanto region in September 1923, killing an estimated 100,000, and offered examples.

The Hoover Institution, a conservative policy research institute on the Stanford University campus in Northern California, had released the photographs on May 5. Michel Guérin, culture editor at Le Monde, said that the newspaper had published the photographs because it trusted the credibility of Stanford.

"We relied on the reputation of Hoover, which is part of Stanford University," Guérin said. "We thought that it was a serious reference. The question we have is: Why did they make the decision to release these photographs without necessary verification."

He said Le Monde first saw the photographs in an Italian newspaper and decided to publish. On the day Hoover released them, an anonymous e-mail went out to other newspapers, including the International Herald Tribune, promoting the publication of the photographs.

Later, Le Monde sought ask Hoover about the origins of the photographs but was told that information about the donors was confidential, according to Le Monde's article.

Malloy has since removed the Capp collection photographs from his Web site with a public statement raising doubts about the authenticity of the photos. He has asked his publisher, Cornell University Press, to include corrections in future printings of his book.

The Hoover Institution has removed links to the photographs in its digital archives, but a spokeswoman did not respond Tuesday to questions about the disputed photographs.

"If these had been in a cardboard box," Malloy said, "I would have asked more questions. But they came from a well-respected, nationally known archive. That explains why a lot of people should have asked more questions."
