Hagerty June declared, the treaty null and void. claimed the surprise parliamentary passage May 20 was illegal. SOCIALISTS BOYCOTT Kishi had put the treaty up to a vote in a lower house session expected to be devoted to other matters.
Socialist Parliament mombers blockaded the speaker in his office and had to be dragged away by police before the House, dominated by Kishi's could vote. The Socialists have boycotted Parliament since. But chief cabinet secretary Etsusaburo Shiina expressed gratification government. He said the treaty is "supported by the overwhelming majority of the Japanese people" and will contribute to peace and prosperity. Only ratification U.S.
so Senate and exchange of ratification documents, probably later this month in Tokyo, are now required to make the alliance effective. All Saturday 300,000 workers, students, Socialist and Communists mustered by. "the people's council against the security treaty" stomped, shouted, chanted and snake-danced through Tokyo under a waving sea of red banners. Some wore black arm bands and carried black-bordered banners in mourning. It was by far the most massive of repeated demonstrations mounted in an effort to force Kishi to dissolve Parliament before the ratification became final.
MINOR INCIDENTS But strangely, despite wide. spread expectations of violence, only minor, incidents were reported. Students stoned a police box near Parliament, smashing windows and forcing two policemen to leave. And other demonstrators broke a door in a metropolitan police department garage. invoke riot laws and call out Fear that the government would invoke riot laws and call out troops was obviously a restraining influence.
An army regiment, perhaps 2,000 men, was reported standing by to cope with any big trouble. U.S. Senate ratification of the new pact is expected shortly, possibly Monday. Then will come the exchange of ratification documents, perhaps June 27 or 28, to bring the treaty into full effect. This short, 10-article document replaces a 1951 agreement between the United States and Japan that leftists and neutralists charged left the Japanese on the short end of the bargain.
The new treaty, signed by Kishi and Secretary of State Christian A. Herter in Washington Jan. 19, provides that U.S. military bases will remain in Japan at least another decade. After that either party can terminate the agreement after one year's notification.
The United States will defend Japan in case of attack. The Japanese are to be consulted by the United States before deploying U.S. forces from Japan or moving in new armament.

John S.
Garrett will prevent re-registration by illiterates in some 25 parishes which do not have permanent registration laws. Garrett's amendment was tacked on with the blessing of the administrationn in a move designed to appease South Louisiana legislators who feared wholesale purges of some 45,000 registered illiterates. The amendment permits those now registered to remain on the rolls. The amendment says: "Notwithstanding any provision in this section to the contrary, the inability of an, person to read or write for any reason, who is registered to vote as of Nov. 8, 1960, shall not be grounds for removal of person from the registration rolls, by the" registrar, by challenge of other persons, or by any action of explicitly does, not say that illiterates who their registered status may re-register.
In 25 parishes, mostly North Louisiana, voters will have to begin re-registering Jan. 2, 1961, under the law which requires registration every four years. Under permanent registration voters in parishes with permanent registration simply have to vote at least once in two years. The 25 parishes have 3,405 illiterates now on the rolls, of whom 2,180 are whites and 1,225 are Negroes. Only one representative in these parishes voted against passage of the bill-Rep.
E. L. Bernard of West Baton Rouge. Four others in these parishes did not vote. The parishes and their total registration, according to the state board of registration, without a permanent system are: Caldwell 24, Cameron 130, Catahoula 83, Concordia 4, East Carroll 53, Franklin 49, Grant 327, LaSalle 70, Lincoln 2, Livingston 185, Madison 60, Morehouse none, Pointe Coupe, 505, Bernard Red River 190, 51, St.

The principal objection by foes of the alliance is that it antagonizes Red China and the Soviet Union.

The vote on the bill Thursday vas 63 to 19, with 19 abstentionism. Fields moved to have it reconsidered for the last time Sunday.
"I don't look for too much argument or con roversy," Fields said. "They'll either pass it or kill The governor already has gotten through the legislature several important pieces of legislation. His $60 million bond issue for capital improvements, which caught most lawmakers by, surprise when it was introduced, has finally been passed by both houses and is awaiting the gubernatorial signature. Also, the state sovereignty commission exactly as Davis wanted it--received uncontested approval of both houses and Friday was signed into law. The House last Thursday zipped through the lengthy general appropriations bill in two hours, and it's now ready for action in the senate finance committee.
Education forces tried without avail to have the education portion of the budget beefed up. They may try again in the senate-but well be for their constituents' consumption than for any real belief that it can be amended without Davis' okay. Rocketing through the legislative processes are a number of bills granting pay host of state and parish officials. With all of his own talk about economy and a state of financial emptiness, the governor has a serious choice to make on the pay raising bills. The senate will begin taking up the administration's series of eight bills replacing the constitutional boards of welfare, highways, institutions and wild life and fisheries with statutory boards whose members would have terms concurrent with the governor.

Gravel has previously warned that there might be trouble at the national convention when the Louisiana delegation arrived, but he later said he hoped the delegation would not be challenged. Still unsettled is a question on whether the national party will seat Booth or Gravel as Louisiana's national committeeman. Gravel shrugged off being replaced by Booth, but said the new appointees will have trouble being recognized by the national committee unless the state group holds another meeting and appoints them "properly."

I am confident he can be a very artiand able spokesman for Louisiana, and I know Mrs. Davis serve with dignity and ability." Taking a page from the Davis administration book, Gravel said his suggestion for the "proper" appointment of Booth and Mrs.
Davis "is really a peace and harmony move. I am anxious that no one comes to the convention and pleads surprise that the credentials of Booth and Mrs. Davis can not be confirmed." He said the state committee still "has an opportunity to take proper action, and should do so." Rumors continued to fly today that a special session would be called, but state committee chairman Charles A. Riddle Jr. denied any plans for another meeting.
Booth said in Shreveport that he is confident he will be seated at the end of the convention. "If there are any defects in my credentials, I know the state committee will take steps to correct them," he said.
