Japanese Prime Minister
PIedoes Hiqher Production

TOKYO, Jan. % P).-Japan today
promised strengthened economic
measures and increased industrial
output in response to an American
pledge that priority would be given
| to putting this vanquished nation
on her financial feet.
The Socialist Prime Minister,
Tetsu Katayama, set the nations
sights at an immediate 40 per cent
increase in production OF key IN
dustrial essentials and 10 per cent
raise in food production in policy
speech before somewhat unruly
session Of the Diet.
Opponents of both left and right
wing political groups heckled Mr..
Katayama continually during his
lengthy address. They declared he
was offering nothing new.
cit would be idle just to go on
begging the world for pity" said
the Prime Minister, calling for in
tensive efforts to prepare for the
peace conference on Japan.
Japanese newspapermen said OPP
position politicians received the
speech with a general air OF In
difference" because they are more
concerned with manipulations for
political power. Y
But Mr.. Katayamass address re-
fected the growing optimism at Al
lied headquarters that Japan's In
dustrial economy is reviving.

Farm Group Sues 10 Halt
zoners' Order 10 vacate

District Court was asked, in suit
filed yesterday, to stop the District
Board of Zoning Adjustment from
forcing the National Farm Commit
tee to vacate its Offices at 1707 N
street NV.
The board, the suit contends, has
ordered the committee to abandon
the N street house as offices on
grounds that the block is classed as
a residential area.
The suit contends the committee
is an educational organization which
seeks to advance agricultural inter-
ests and that it is nonprofit outfit.
As such, the suit contends, the
plaintiff, Ralph w. Moore, secretary
and Washington representative OF
the committee, has right to main
tain offices at the N street address.
Mr.. Moore is represented by At
torney James r. Kirkland.

|SeIf-Sufficiency Aim
In Japan Called Hint Of
New Marshall Plan
BY the Assoeioisd Pres.

Speculation mounted today that
an industrially revived Japan might
be made the center of an eventual
Marshall plan" for the Far East.
Some diplomatic authorities said
privately they regard this as among
the reasons for the newly stated
American determination to speed
the time when Japan becomes self
supporting and can make It's proper
contribution to the economic re-
Mobilization" of the world.
Just as the United States has
committed itself to restoring West
ern Germany to the point where 1t
can play a major role in the re-
covery program proposed for 10
other European countries, they saw
a parallel in the policy decision laid
before the Far Eastern Commission
late yesterday.
Asks Lifting Of Burden.
Mai. Gen. Frank r. MCCOY, Amer
lean member of the FEC, told the
group the $3.50, 000, 000-a-year bur-
den on American taxpayers to sus-
tain Japan's civilian economy must
be lifted.
He added that this country wants
other members of the 11-nation ad.

anese people but also to provide
raw materials, spare parts anc
other items required for the resto.

| The idea of Far Eastern recov.
cry program is known to be under
consideration.
Japan Is Work Shop"
One top official discussing a $780,
600, 900 item in President Trumans
recent budget message for other
foreign aid, including China" told
reporters:
There are situations in the Far
East which may need looking into,
the same as the 16 nations in
Europe"
Japan long has been regarded as
the work shop" of Asia just as
Germany has been so considered
for Europe. Hence officials say that
any recovery program for the Far
East would be difficult to carry out
without the help of Japanese In
dustry.

|Spaak May Reshufne
Belgian Cabinet 10
Overcome Criticism,
By the Asseeis,sd Press

BRUSSELS, Sept. 29.-Clouds are
gathering on Belgium's political
horizon around the coalition gov
ernment of Prime Minister Paul
Henri Spaak. =
An imminent reshuffiing Of the
cabinet is being discussed. Although
some hint at general cabinet
crisis, the general opinion seems to
be that the skillful Mr.. Spaak will
tailor his administration to meet
the main objections Of his critics.
Belgians have an acute realization
Of the dangers of the current inter-
national situation and apparently
few want to see the present coali-
ton of Socialists and Social Chris
tians Progressive Catholics) thrown
out and replaced by another ad-
ministration OF the same type.
What good would that do?" they
ask. I'VE don't want to get like
France"
Smaller Cabinet Possible.
One suggestion from Socialist
circles, which also seems to have
met with some approval among the
Catholics, is for the scrapping Of
what have been called "the useless
ministries"
These are the Ministry of the
Budget (Socialist), Ministry of Food
and Supplies (non-party), Ministry
of Economic Coordination Social
ist) and Ministry of Coal and Fuels
(Socialist).
Such a reduction in the number of
government departments. 1t Is felt,
would suit the views Of Prime Min
lister Spaak himself, who always
has favored q small and compact
cabinet better able to make quick
decisions.
with the growing unpopularity
of the present combination, 1t is
time to give the younger ministers a
chance" a prominent Socialist said
in an interview. 1T would give pub
lie opinion psychological jolt which
1t badly needs"
Criticisms Outlined.
The main criticisms against Mr..
Spaak's 18-month-old government
concern high taxation, its education
policy (the Catholics want larger
subsidies), the slowness of the post

war housing program and its di-
Wded attitude toward the possible
restoration Of King Leopold III To
the throne.
The Prime Minister and some Of his
colleagues have declared themselves
uncompromisingly against a public
plebiscite on the royal question. On
the other hand, the Social Christian
members of his cabinet favor q
plebiscite. Liberal and Communist
views have not crystalized and their
attitude. thus far reserved, may play
an important part In coming de-
cisions.
