Leftist Students Storm Japanese Parliament in 7 Hour Riot
A seven hour riot around Tokyo's Diet left one woman dead and nearly 500 injured as police used tear gas for the first time in eight years. The outbreak, four days before President Eisenhower's planned visit, was blamed on international communists aiming to topple democracy and derail Japan's U.S. treaty alignment. Thousands of Zengakuren members stormed Parliament grounds, burning vehicles and clashing with 5,000 police in a rain-soaked confrontation.
