Rusk Fails to Secure Japanese Backing on Vietnam War
Secretary of State Dean Rusk concludes a three day visit to Tokyo amid tensions over Vietnam policy and China.

Japan maintains trade ties with Communist China and resists UN admission for Beijing. Rusk agrees to study Okinawa civil administration return to Tokyo.
