Tokyo officials try to cool simmering trade conflict
**YOU MAY ONLY REDEEM ONE COUPON PER PERSON.
**YOU MUST HAVE A RED SPRING 1994 FEE STICKER ON YOUR KUID TO RECEIVE YOUR TICKETS.
**WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR STOLEN COUPONS
TOKYO — As Washington turns up the heat with charges about closed Japanese markets, Tokyo officials are playing it cool, apparently worried that harsh words would raise the likelihood of a damaging trade war.
**WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR STOLEN COUPONS.
After U.S. Trade Representative Mickey Kantor used harsh language in accusing Japan of breaking promises to open its cellular phone market, the word for the day in Tokyo yesterday was "reise" — literally "cool and quiet."
"From the standpoint of preserving and developing friendly U.S.-Japan relations, our country believes both Japan and the United States should react coolly and quietly," said a statement by telecommunications minister Takenori Kanzaki.
Kanzaki disputed Kantor's accusation Tuesday that Japan had not lived up to a 1989 pact to give Motorola Inc. access to its cellular phone market.
But chief government representative Masayoshi Takemura said Tokyo would do nothing until the United States decided on specific sanctions on Japanese products because of the phone dispute.
About the farthest Japanese officials said they were ready to go was to appeal any U.S. retaliatory steps to the world free trade body, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.
The Motorola case was separate from the broader talks that collapsed Friday over Japan's refusal to accept a demand for numerical goals to measure success.
Japan continues to reject that demand. But Prime Minister Morihiro Hosokawa said yesterday that Japan had the responsibility to take the initiative in trimming its nearly 860 billion trade surplus with the United States.
"We would like to find the way toward a compromise as quickly as possible." Hosokawa said.
That surplus still is getting bigger, according to figures announced yesterday. Japan's overall trade surplus in January rose 17 percent over the same month a year earlier to $6.11 billion.
In Washington, congressional sources said they expected the administration to announce today that it was resurrecting a lapsed U.S. trade law allowing for retaliatory tariffs against countries deemed to be "unfair traders."
Robert Fiske met with U.S. District Judge Stephen Reasoner and later told reporters "it made sense" to empanel a special grand jury "because of the importance of this investigation and the importance of doing it as quickly and as thoroughly as possible."
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The prosecutor in the Whitewater investigation asked a federal judge yesterday for a special jury to look into President and Mrs. Clinton's real estate investment.

After the 40-minute meeting with Reasoner, Fiske said he hoped the special grand jury could be formed "as soon as it reasonably can be."
Fiske noted that a grand jury currently at work in Little Rock, Ark, meets only two or three days a month.
A new grant jury would work exclusively for up to 18 months on Fiske's probe of Whitewater Development Co. and the failed Madison Guaranty Savings and Loan.
Fiske said his investigation had been under way since late last month — and that three lawyers had been on board for the past two weeks.
"I will be in position, I believe, by Tuesday to make an announcement" of a staff that will total between five and 10 lawyers, he said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.
