Is Preparing To Replace American Forces

Washington, Jan. 13.

America and Japan have agreed that Japan should increase its present security force from 110,000 men to 350,000 men and build up a small naval force and a jet air force, according to American diplomats.

Estimates of the strength needed to protect Japan against possible Russian or Communist Chinese aggression range as high as 1,000 planes.
