--effective security cover for such installations," the announcement said.
LONDON - The British government announced yesterday it would send troops into Northern Ireland to reinforce "key points" following new violence in Londonderry, where Catholics, Protestants and police engaged in widespread street brawls this weekend.
There was no indication immediately how many troops would be sent to Northern Ireland, nor when they would arrive.
The move by the British Cabinet followed a confrontation between some
Task unit sighted
TOKYO — An influential Japanese newspaper said yesterday its staff airplane had spotted the U.S. aircraft carrier Hornet and six destroyers entering the Sea of Japan from the south, apparently the vanguard of a Naval task force assigned to protect U.S.reconnaissance ships and planes.The report of the mass-cireculation Asahi Shimun was the first that placed U.S.warships in the area since North Korean jets shot down an unarmed Navy reconnaissance plane last Tuesday with 31 servicemen aboard.
The report coincided with the disclosure by Japan Foreign Office sources that the United States has promised Japan not to use U.S. fighter planes stationed at Japanese bases to protect the reconnaissance flights.
President Nixon said in a speech broadcast nationwide Friday that the United States would resume reconnaissance flights in international airspace off North Korea under protection, presumably by air and Naval escorts.
BONN — Chancellor Kurt George Kiesinger and Foreign Minister Willy Brandt were split yesterday over whether West Germany should sign the treaty banning the spread of nuclear weapons.
Brandt, leader of the Social Democratic party in the government coalition, fears failure to sign the agreement will harm forthcoming nuclear disarmament talks between the United States and the Soviet Union.
Kiesinger, the leader of the Christian Democratic party, admits that Brandt's argument is possible but gives the U.S.-Soviet talks little chance of success anyway.
German leaders split on treaty
Sources close to Kiesinger feel the talks will bog down because the United States and the Soviet Union abandoned the principle that the superpowers submit to the same universal inspection as the smaller nations.
Brandt is said to see the signing of the so-called Nonproliferation Treaty as a key to further talks with the Soviet Union or relaxing tensions and perhaps as a way to break the deadlock in attempts to open a dialogue with the Communist rulers of East Germany.
Brandt believes more delay in signing would undermine what he considers promising prospects for East-West negotiations on European security.
Neither side seems prepared to make any compromise when the Kiesinger-Brandt dispute comes to a head at a cabinet meeting Wednesday.

"The fleet was sailing in the East China Sea at a speed of 15 knots some 65 miles southeast of the South Korean island of Cheju and 67.5 miles west of the Goto Islands off Japan's Nagasaki prefecture," Asahi Shimbun said.
It said its staff aircraft had sighted the task unit yesterday afternoon. The location given would place it off the southeast tip of South Korea and at the mouth of the Korea Strait leading into the Sea of Japan.
The United States said the Navy EC121 Super Constellation crashed into the Sea of Japan about 95 miles southwest of the northern North Korean port of Ch'Ongjin, killing all 31 men aboard.
10,000 Roman Catholic demonstrators and 500 police in Londonderry, and an explosion that damaged the Newcastle Waterworks and put Belfast on water rationing yesterday, UPI correspondent Donal P. O'Higgins reported.
Nixon said that about 190 such flights had been carried out previous to the attack this year,
A Defense Ministry spokesman said last night that "in response to a request from the government of Northern Ireland, her majesty's government in the United Kingdom has agreed to make military personnel available for guard duty at key public utility installations."
Some 5,000 British Army troops already are stationed in Northern Ireland under the Belfast command.
Protection increased
There was no immediate indication what installations would be covered under the new order.
O'Higgins said only hospitals and other vital points in the Northern Ireland capital were exempted from water rationing.
However, spokesmen in London said there was "no question of the use of troops to control crowds or demonstrators."
Correspondent O'Higgins said the explosion at the waterworks in Silence Valley on the outskirts of Belfast early yesterday had resulted in "apparently a lot of damage."
An announcement from the Ulster office in London said, "The Cabinet reviewed the arrangements already in operation for the protection of certain key installations and decided that in view of the outrages which occurred Saturday, the list of such installations afforded protection must be substantially increased."
Much damage
In Londonderry yesterday, a force of 500 riot police who had seized a Roman Catholic area of the city withdrew before an advancing crowd of 10,000 Catholics armed with Molotov cocktails, clubs, lead pipes and bicycle chains.
The "substantial increase" in British troops in Northern Ireland was ordered "to provide
