Clinton praises
steps taken by
Japanese leader
Hand jam
WASHINGTON (AP) — President
Clinton praised the “very strong steps”
taken by Japanese Prime Minister
Keizo Obuchi to revive Japan’s econo
my and ease a severe global financial
crisis. Both nations agreed on a pack
age of trade deals the administration
hopes will mean expanded sales for
U.S. companies.
But in a clear sign of rising trade ten
sions between the world’s two largest
economies, Clinton warned during
Obuchi’s visit Monday that a flood of
Japanese steel into the United States
must be halted.
“We will take action if steel imports
do not return to their pre-crisis levels
on a consistent basis,” he said, repeat
ing a threat he first made in January
that his administration will initiate cas
es to impose penalty tariffs on Japan
ese steel shipments to protect the U.S.
industry.
Obuchi, making the first official vis
it to the United States by a Japanese
prime minister in 12 years, said his
government is tackling the root cause
of rising steel imports into the United
States — a financial crisis that has
pushed one-third of the world, includ
ing Japan, into recession.
“1 explained to the president that
Japan is swiftly and boldly taking every
measure in order to address the diffi
culties we are facing,” Obuchi said at a
news conference with Clinton. He pre
dicted that those efforts will result in a
“major turnaround” that will pull
Japan out of its worst recession in 50
years.

LANDSTUHL, Germany (AP) —
Upbeat and safe at a U.S. military
hospital in Germany, three ser
vicemen released by Yugoslavia
were joyfully reunited with their
families on their first full day of
freedom Monday.
Army doctors pronounced the
soldiers in generally good shape,
but checkups also revealed frac
tured ribs and a broken nose, rais
ing questions about how they were
treated during their capture and
month in captivity.
The Army declined to comment
on how the injuries were sus
tained, citing the ongoing exami
nations and investigation into the
circumstances of their March 31
capture on the Yugoslav-Macedo-
nia border.
Before arriving at the Landstuhl
Regional Medical Center on Sun
day, the soldiers told reporters that
their scars and bruises stemmed
from their capture, but said they
