Senate Delays Ratification Of Japanese Pact
The Senate put off a Wednesday vote on ratification of the U S Japanese security treaty after seven hours of debate. President Eisenhower’s signature and an exchange of documents with Japan remain as final steps amid rioting in Tokyo and questions about rioting coverage. Secretary Herter urged swift action during questions on U S information on the riots and the cancelation of Eisenhower’s visit. Johnson questioned why Eisenhower canceled the trip at the last minute.
