1t appeared unlikely that the
three leaders would heed the
plea to desert Mr.. KiShi. But
any change in allegiance would
make Mr.. Kishi's position even
tougher than it is now, al

way he could be forced out of

his ground.
The security treaty was rati-

Saturday despite the agonizing

The actual exchange of off,

The Socialists, leaders in the

battling for weeks to maintain
Japan'S military links with
America.
Mr.. Kishi's ruling Liberal
Democrats struck back early
today with quick approval in
parliament's upper house of
legislation to adjust present
Japanese laws to confirm with
provisions in the new treaty.
Taken by Surprise
The legislation caught the
Socialist opposition by surprise.
None was present when the
voting took place. The Social
lists and other opposition groups
have been boycotting parlia-
ment, but the Socialists had
promised to wage a new fight
against the legislation.
The ratification documents,
bearing the signatures of Mr..
Kishi and Foreign Minister
Aiichiro Fujiyama, were sub
mitted to Emperor Hirohito.
The Emperor is expected to at
test them tomorrow or Wednes-
day.
Demonstrations persisted.
About 800 students of the
Communist inspired Zenga-

at least three talks he will make
outlining the approach he

take on various issues.

Mr.. Nixon and his advisers
are we'll aware, of course, that
Republicans have been hurt in
this upper Midwest area by the
decline in farm prices in recent
