Japan is now engaged in a major
military program in view of the
steady buildup of Soviet forces in the
area, Aviation Week & Space Tech
nology said Monday.
Meanwhile, U.S. Defense Secret
ary Harold Brown, from Washington
urged Japan to increase its defense
spending and aid to Pakistan because
of the Soviet invasion of Afgha
nistan.
The weekly said the U.S. Defense
Department “is encouraging Japan’s
military expansion and moderniza
tion” and “has asked Japan to assume
responsibility for helping the United
States keep open vital sea lanes out
to the vicinity of Guam. ”
Clarence Robinson Jr., the maga
zine’s senior military editor who
went to Japan to study Japanese de
fense capability, wrote in the first of a
series of articles from Tokyo of a “sig
nificant shift” in Japanese public atti
tude on military matters.
“The Japanese government Self
Defense Force and U.S. military
officers here all agree that changes in
military attitudes are leading this is
land nation toward a new role of
leadership in East Asia,” he said.
Brown said, “It will be useful if
Japan gives aid to Pakistan.”
Other U.S. government sources
said Japan intends to more than dou
ble its economic aid to Pakistan from
$58.3 million to about $137.5 million
in 1980, beginning in April.
Prime Minister Mag Ayoshi Ohira
expressed hope that the Afghan
question will be solved through
efforts by the United Nations, and
Japan would cooperate, government
officials said.

issued a four-line bulletin saying,
“Despite temporary improvement,
the desired effect has not been
achieved.”
But the bulletin said Tito’s general
condition is good and he is recover
ing normally from the operation on
the blood vessels of his left leg.
There was no indication of what
further treatment might be needed,
nor were any details of the operation
given.
The only authoritative statement
giving some details of Tito’s ailment
was made before the operation by
American cardio-vascular surgeon
Michael DeBakey of Baylor Medical
College in Houston.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil — A
mob of 300 people chased two ban
dits for nearly a mile Monday, caught
them and kicked, beat and stoned
them to death, police said. One
account said a whole soccer team
took part in the attack.
Police said two men robbed a bus
fare collector of $10 and fled, and
were pursued by a growing crowd in
the tough Rio suburg of Belfort Roxo
shouting, “Stop thief! Kill!”
also divided and eventually caught
both. The crowd attacked the young,
men with metal bars, sticks and rocks
and then piled the two bodies in the
street.
The newspaper O Dia reported
that even the “Pequena Familia

by field abandoned its game and took
up the chase.

“It has got to be like this,” one
resident told reporters. “There is no

BEIRUT, Lebanon — Libyan
leader Col. Moammar Khadafy cal
led on Americans residing in Libya
to march on their embassy and turn it
into a “people’s” office, the state-run
Libyan News Agency said.
The agency quoted Khadafy as
telling at a news conference late Sun
day, he would be “ready to receive
the U.S. Charge d’ affaires once the
embassy in Tripoli is turned into a
people’s office.”
The leader also denied any dispute
between his country and the Pales
tine Liberation Organization.
He said the conflict was “one
sided” and the PLO’s mainstream
group, AI Fatah, was “responsible
for it.”
“It’s Fatah who should remove the
causes of such a dispute,” Khadafy
said.
He stressed that his country was
“the one which adopted Fatah, sup
plied it with arms and money and
provided it with offices and radio sta
tion.” He insisted that Libya will
continue to help the Palestinian re
volution “on the path of the armed
struggle.”
The conflict with the PLO, as far as
it is publicly known, erupted when
some of the estimated 40,000 Palesti
nians residing in Dihya set up what
was called “popular revolutionary
committees” in response to Kha-
dafy’s proposal early in December on
the International Day for Solidarity
with the Palestinian People.
In a speech marking the occasion,
Khadafy urged the Palestinian guer
rilla movement to attack Israel from
“all fronts,” destroy the Suez Canal
because “it was being used by
Israel,” and to blow up the Arab oil
fields and block the strategic Gulf of
Hormux strait — the sole entrance
to the Gulf waters.
The PLO’s news media launched a
barrage of attacks against the Libyan
leader, escalating them even further
by announcing he had failed to meet
financial commitments to the PLO
since 1974 and that all his financial
and military contributions went to
his allies in the Palestinian move
ment — the radical guerrilla fac
tions, not members of the PLO.

AM/FM STEREO RECEIVER
When other companies design a low-priced stereo receiver, their big
concern is how much they can leave out. When Pioneer decided to build
the SX-450, they wanted to see how much they could put in.
There's continuous power output of 15 watts minimum RMS per chan
nel at 8 ohms from 20 to 20,000 Hz with no more than 0.5% total
harmonic distortion.
The FM section uses a phase-locked loop
multiplex circuit —just like the most expen
sive tuners — for great stereo separation. And
there's a special integrated circuit to keep sta
tions from interfering with each other.
For operating convenience, the SX-450 has
a dual-function tuning meter, tape monitor
circuit five-input function selector and even a
Vjriicrophone jack.
