TOKYO. Aug. "a (AP).-
Prime Minister Hayato Ikeda
pledged today that Japan will
faithfully discharge its obliga-
tions" under the 10-year secu-
rity treaty recently concluded
with the United States.
He said a visit to Japan by
the President of the United
States would promote friendly
relations between the two coun-
tries. And he said fatty. refer
ring to the riots in Tokyo that
forced cancellation of Presi-
dent Eisenhower's visit in June:
Il won't have that kind Of
social disorder again"
However. Mr.. Ikeda said in
an interview that he has no
specific plan for extending an
invitation now or after the elec-
ton of a new president in
November.
Kishi Negotiated Treaty
The security rteaty was
signed and put in force by the
previous japanese government,
headed by Prime Minister No.
busuke Kishi. The treaty's
principal sections stipulate:
/. American Military bases
will remain in Japan for at
least 10 years. At the end of
this period. either government
can terminate the agreement
with one years notification.
2. The United States will de-
fend Japan in case of attack.
3. The United States will con-
suit with Japan before making
any major changes in the arma-
ment or the strength or move
ment of American forces sta
toned in Japan.
The Tokyo riots broke out
during the debate over rati-
f1cation of the treaty. Mr.. Eli
senhower's visit was cancelled
when it appeared that the gov
ernment could not guarantee
his safety.
Discusses Riots Cause
Mr.. Ikeda implied that the
riots took place because the
previous government did not
have the full support of public
opinion in Japan with respect
to the security treaty. He said:

mistakes. These led to other

unless he can establish a stable
currency. But If he succeeds in his
bid for an independent currency
he could dominate the Congo tur-
bulence.
Printing Currency In Switzerland
Evariste Kimba, designated by
Tshombe as foreign minister OF
Katanga, revealed in New York
that Tshombe is printing his OWL
currency in Switzerland.
KINDA said Tshombe's govern
ment was printing money in Swift,
zerland and passports in Katanga's
capital of Elisabethville.
The Congo's wealth is concent-
rated in Katanga, and Tshombe
has been successful in keeping the
provincial government tightly I'M
der his control.
Determined To Obtain Autonomy
Although the Katanga premier
recently has taken a conciliatory
attitude toward the central Con-
golese regime of Col. Joseph Mob
utu, Swiss informants say the Kat
anga leader remains determined to
obtain autonomy for his realm.
The Swiss sources believe Tsh-
ombe is playing for time while he
sets up a government backed by a
sound currency and supported by
full-scale administration and pub
lie service.

Congo Gold In
Swiss Banks

Zurich, Switzerland (ANP) -
Local banking circles have report
ed the Katanga, Province has
struggled a gold hoard estimated
at $50 Million to this country.
According to the sources, the
smuggled gold is being used to
support an independent Katanga
currency. Informants described
Katanga Premier Noise Tshombe's
gold smuggling coup as "one of the
most spectacular adventure stories
to come out of the Congolese
chaos"
While details are being withheld
pending sterilization of the Con-
golese turmoil, it is understood in
Switzerland, however, that Tsh-
ombe received assistance, official
or otherwise, from the Belgians.
Gold Transferred To Switzerland
1t is reported that the gold
hoard apparently was flown to Bel
GUM from the large Belgium base
Of Kamina, in Katanga, and then
transferred to Switzerland.
Katanga's gold is a product of
the PROVINCES copper and uranium
mines, reports indicate that the
Katanga premier intends to in
crease gold output to bolster back
ing for Katanga's currency.
The Swiss informants believe
in fact, Tshombe himself believes
that the Katanga premier will
stand or fall according to his sue
cess in establishing an independent
gold-backed currency for his prov.
ince.
Should Tshombe succeed, he
could emerge with the only Con
golese currency with international
acceptance. The Congo franc i:
now virtually useless in interna
tional exchange.
The outcome has been that while
the PROVINCES fabulous copper anC
uranium mines continue nearly nor
NAL production, all other economic
life in Katanga is paralyzed BY
the need for stable currency.

A fanatic was blamed today for
an explosion which blasted the

dozen homes in Atlanta's north

1T was the work of q fanatic.
Of that we are sure," said Police

special subversive section In the
detective bureau.
ALI available men in the po-
lice department were, taking
part in the intensive investiga-
tion. FBI agents and q ademoli-
ton team from the Sd Army
entered the case on a co-opera-
tive basis.
Blast Particles Studied
Investigators were still trying
to determine the type of explo-
sive used. Particles picked I'D
at the scene were being tested
in FBI laboratories and at the
Sd Army's nearby Fort Nc
Pherson.
First reports said a bundle of
dynamite. containing from 3 to
20 sticks, was hurled at the side
entrance of the l,600-pupil
English avenue elementary
school at 2:40 am. yesterday.
No one was injured by the blast.
Later, investigators said there
was a possibility a liquid type
explosive. such as nitroglyc-
crime, was used.
The blast damaged the school
auditorium and two clasSroorns
and showered neighboring Me-
gro homes and parked cars with
fiying stone and debris. DR..
