1t is the contention OF my colleagues
that this endangers the national
safety Of japan.
ut is the japanese contention that
this plan has been evolved from a
fallacious premise. japan holds that
the inclusion of ships under construc-

reasonable. For Japan is construct

America has, l believe, eighteen ships

effect upon the al tonnage from

the expert revealed.
my nation does not plan an Of

Of naval technology, japan must have
a navy of offensive strength to wage
