Japan - Communist Bloc: The Japanese Ministry
of InternationO Trade and--Industry reportedly has
developed proposals for a sweeping liberalization of
Japan's trade with Communist countries.
the ministry claims that its proposals, if adopted
soon, could lead to a doubling of Japan's 1964 exports
to Communist areas, currently projected at $320 mil-
lion.
Under these proposals, the Japanese Government
would: apply COCOM list restrictions only to weapons,
equipment, and materials directly usable in war; free
Communist business travelers from special entry con-
trols; encourage the establishment of Japanese trade
offices in Communist countries; and extend the same
deferred payment terms to Communist buyers as are
now offered to non-Communist countries.
The US Embassy comments that the proposal re-
garding the COCOM list is "utterly unrealistic" and
that the other proposals would be drastically modified
before the government would adopt them. At present,
according to the report, they are being circulated
quietly among top officials of the ruling Liberal Dem-
ocratic Party to obtain political backing before they
are presented to the cabinet.

Strong elements of the LDP favor expansion of
trade with Communist China, which would be a par-
ticular beneficiary of a more liberal policy. Prime
Minister Ikeda, who maintains a I If orward- looking"
stance toward closer relations with mainland China,
might therefore find it expedient to go along to some
extent with a liberalization program. .1

Argentina: The revival this month of a nation-
wide agitation campaign by the General Confederation
of Labor (CGT) may set of a prolonged period of
labor unrest.
This campaign, which the CGT postponed in
March, calls for brief and sporadic "occupation" of
various production centers by workers between 18
May and 19 June, A nationwide "occupation" lasting
24 hours is planned to take place between 15 and 18
June,
The CGT argues that the government has not,
made "satisfactory" progress toward resolving such
problems as the high cost of living, unemployment,
and the need for minimum wage legislation.
The decision to renew the campaign presumably
was timed to bring pressure on Congress, which
opened its regular session on 1 May. President Illia,
who has already ordered,-some steps to meet labor's
complaints, recommended a minimum wage measure
in his state-of-the-nation message.

might ease its pressure if the Congress satisfies
some of its more urgent demands.
US Ambassador McClintock comments.that the
CGT is againt:on a collision course with the govern-
mente He adds that many labor officials--who see
danger in so provocative an approach- -have little
enthusiasm for the "occupation" plan, The CGT
