--- University Daily Kansan, January 25, 1984 NATION AND WORLD Nakasone wants rise in defense spending By United Press International The Cabinet tentatively endorsed a Finance Ministry proposal last Friday for a 5.1 percent increase in military spending, the first April, but critics said that it too low. TOKYO — Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone has overruled a Cabinet decision and ordered Japan to spend at least 6.5 percent more on defense this year to satisfy demands by the United States, officials said yesterday. A final decision on the defense budget will be made today after Finance Minister Noboru Takeshita meets with the Defense director-general of the Defense Agency. Nakasone's order means that the 1984 budget would carmark about $12.5 billion. The defense issue will figure high in talks this week between U.S. officials and Japanese Foreign Minister Shintaro Abe, who leaves for Washington The United States has long demanded that Japan assume a greater share of the burden of defense in the Pacific, but successive governments have found the anti-military sentiment among post-war Japanese nearly impossible to dismantle. Japan's economy has also suffered from recession and finance officials are attempting to hold the line on non-funding of loans, giving a general boost of only 0.5 percent. Trade will also be a topic of discussion at this week's meetings. The Defense Department requested an increase of at least 7 percent to implement its five-year buildup program, which opened last year. The Nakasone defense budget would account for 0.99 percent of Japan's gross national product. The government has kept defense outlays within 1 percent of its GNP since 1971 because of opposition to a substantial buildup. U. S. Deputy Trade Representative Michael Smith, now in Tokyo for talks with Japanese officials, yesterday urged Japan to reduce tariffs and make its translation that could bar American computer goods from Japanese markets.

"We, at least, need at the Justice Department a credible lawyer with a reputation as such," Jackson told about 700 students at Georgetown University. 700 students at Georgetown University. "To have one with no creditability as a lawyer, whose reputation is that of a police officer, he succeeds the more authority of that office." "If he feels that there are no hungry people, perhaps he feels there are no civil rights violations," Jackson said. Meese, a longtime Reagan aide, was nominated by the president Monday to succeed Smith. jackson pointedly referred to Meese's controversial comment late last year that there were "no authoritative figures" to document the extent of hunger in America and that many of hunger were politically motivated As he customarily does, Jackson calls on students to come forward and request help.

"This is the most anti-union administration in history," he said. "To them, the term 'solidarity' is a word that exists in Polish, not in English. I believe in free unions, not just in Poland, but also in the United States." "Mr. Reagan put in OSHA (the occupational Safety and Health Administration) who won't protect you, and people on the National Labor Relations Board who won't respect you. He appointed a secretary of labor who won't even listen to you," he told the cheering delegates. "Mr. President, our unions broke their backs for this nation, and nobody in this nation has a right to break the backs of our unions. "This administration seems to be saying we need a union-free nation. I say we need a nation of free unions," Mondale said. He said the government had the legal right to force management to negotiate sooner during the Greymouth Bus strike and complained that it failed to do so.
