1.6elae people say that the . .orld 7.ar II type armspent would be unnecessary in the

A-bomb age, but I think that thin is an argument unworthy of consideration. This isbecause future warfare :agy be classified into the -following three eategories: 1)

1.414r2,::4.,24440,',.•- L•i4A14: total warfare in whicil nuclear Ixerpons are used, 23 local warfare of 1:Orld :.ar II, typei. levyhiciadoueleal . .napens4erarnotwateedpandtee4veRathiAg44kMarorletiemvor,wimOxi,war and as the latest disturbances inNungary and Sues show, we have to think that .waxy which fall under the latter two categories are more likely to break out.

7thether or not the Self-Defense Force is really *armed force' , has repeatedly..been discussed iA the List. In this connection, it is clear that, whatever sapiens-tion nay be given, the existing Constitntion does not permit the maintaining of WhatL.is generally acceoted-as altited foroos. In this sense, I demand an early amendmentof the Constitution.. I regard the Self-Defense Force in its basic character not ada boity fc2 Zull-fl3d7cd arnsmant but as a preparatory organ for the armament 441:Lohwil/ be establiehed eter to Constitution is amended. If so, it would be meaning.-leee to xlpend year after year the body which is not an armament, and T. think thatefforts shotdd be concentrated to build the groundwork for true armament.

Speaking . of ground forces for instance, if Japan trains 120,000 officers andnoncommissioned officers instead of keening 180i000 men, and attach iRportance to.educationand training of officers and N.0.0 t e. it will be easy for Japan to build upa necessary scope of armed forces at a bounce-uhen necessity arises in the future.As to the air force, Japan will be able to keep up, flexibly and efficiently, withthe incessant progress of weapons by laying major stress upon airbase facilities andtraining of personnel, instead of seeking to increase the nuMoar of Combat planoe,.and limiting the tepee and numbers of airplanes to those necessary for trainingpurposes for the time being*

It may -; necessary to keep a certain' number of naval vessels, but in view ofthe world sivation whermremarkehle changes are taking place in the types and

of naval vessels, I hiuk Japan should adopt a thoroughgoing '!emallvessel policy :). I am also afraid that a sevionadefect may be coined in Japantsdefense setup unless she rel:es strenuous an autonomous effects in the research onguided nissilos ar6 other wiw rreapone instezd of merely relying.upon the U.S. for the
