One denial involved changing 2150 Rockford Road SW from R-2 to M-1 for a trucking garage with a parking area, opposed by area residents. A second petition to rezone 2866 Mt. Vernon Road SE from B-1 to B-2 was denied amid concerns of strip zoning.

Japan and China drift toward no formal ties
In a dated report, Tokyo cites strained relations with Beijing labeling them unfortunate while noting Japan remains China's top trading partner. China’s past demand for normalizing ties calls for cancelling the Taiwan peace treaty, a move Fukuda rejects as unilateral. Also referenced is Roosevelt’s 30 years earlier lend-lease pledge to Iran and Iraq.
