DEFENCE Sub-Committee's Appeal For Realistic Attitude

Washington, Apr. 8.

A House Armed Services Sub-Committee to- day called on Japan to take a "realistic attitude" toward rearmament with the objective of taking over its own defence eventually.

"The United States cannot be expected to defend the Japanese islands indefinitely," the Sub- Committee said.

The recommendation was one of many included in the Sub-Committee's report on a trip it took last Autumn to the Far East and over much of the rest of the world. The Sub-Committee was headed by Re- presentative Leroy Johnson (Republican, California).
