Wall Street Chatter New York-HM-The rally in defense-related issues as a re sult of the summit debacle is coinciding with improved technical patterns for quite a number of other well-deflated stocks, according to Prentice-Hall, Inc. The publishing firm says that if you want to go along with this trend, it's wise to confine new purchases at this time to (1) primarily defense issues, like aircraft and mili tary electronics; (2) other strong growth areas like office machines, electrical equip ment, drugs and glass; and (3) defensive situations like elec tronic utilities, natural gas, soft drinks, food, finance and retail chains. The Alexander Hamilton Institute is convinced that while an indefinite period of adjustment lies ahead for the oil companies, with the prob ability of mergers for some of the weaker or strictly do mestic producers, purchases of stocks in the major com panics at current prices should prove safe and attrac tive holdings for the patent investor.

Y 1 Japan Kishi 'Prisoner' In Parliament For Over 12 Hours Two Million Persons Join Demonstrations By TONY KASE United Prut International Tokyo - 0.TD - Nation-wide demonstrations against the US. - Japan security treaty spread alarm in the Japanese capital today. Police estimated that about two million persons joined in the demonstrations, which in Tokyo took on an anti-American character. Thousands of angry demonstrators besieged Premier Nobusuke Kishi in the Parliament Cuilding, and marched past the American Embassy shouting "Yankee, go home," "Stay home, Ike," and "American imperialists, stay out of Asia." More than 1,000 police were placed around the embassy to keep the demonstrators from breaking in. The demonstrators in To kyo,' estimated to number a mou t 200.000. kept Kishi "Imprisoned" in the Parlia ment Building for more'than 12 hours while they shouted demands for his resignation. Policemen Hurt Kishl's sedan finally raced out a back entrance to the building while thousands of leftist students of the fanatic Zengakuren Students Feder ation showered stones on po licemen guarding the struc ture. At least 30 policemen were injured, five seriously. There were no indications that any students were injured. But in Himeji, outside of Kobe, 13 students were in jured when about 500 of them clashed with police while staging antitreaty demonstra tions. It was the seventh straight day of antitreaty demonstra tions in the capital. Members of the student federation warned the demonstrations woud continue "every day until Kishi resigns." The left wing opponents of the U.S. - Japanese security treaty - equipped with Com munist party sound trucks -shouted demands for "Kishi resign" and for Eisenhower to cancel his June visit. After passing the American Embassy the huge throngs be gan streaming toward Tokyo's main railway station many blocks away where they plan ned to disperse and board commuter trains that would take them back home! By then more than 100,000 had thronged. Students Stona Police Kishi remained in his office and looked nervously out the window from time to time as a roar swelled up from the crowd for him to resign be cause he had aligned Japan with the United States in the cold war. The streaming, fanatical students outside yelled for Eisenhower to stay home and for Kishi to scrap the defense alliance. He had no intention of doing so. The students milling out side the Parliament Building began stoning police when they found 'hey could not break through the cordon. Police said 10 police were Injured, two seriously, in the first volley of stones from the fanatical Zengakuren Stu dents Federation. I stood behind the police cordon at the main gate while stones rained onto police ranks. Facts Spurt Blood I saw two policemen just in front of me who were hit by huge stones. Their faces spurted blood. Tens of thousands of Com munists and leftist demonstra tors, many carrying red Hags or banners demanding "stay home Eisenhower," streamed into the area forming a danc ing, shoving, s couting mass. Japanese policemen, used to wild demonstrations, blanch ed. One collapsed next to me sobbing and shaking. "I'm going home," he cried, and some of his fellow police men carried him away. 10,000 Police on Duty At least 10,000 policemen manned strategic spots, block ing off the entrance to the Diet compound and the adja cent official residence of the premier. But in contrast lo the crowd of demonstrators the police force seemed puny.

Ike's Japan Trip May Be Postponed Because of Riots Japan Must Assure Safety of President Washington-HTI-U. S. offi cials said today President Eisenhower's trip to Japan next month might be post poned unless the Japanese government gives assurances soon that his reception will not be endangered by political turmoil. According to informed quar ters, a decision must be made in Washington within a few days on whether to go ahead with plans for the trip to Japan and Korea. If the trip goes off as sched uled, it will be expanded to to include the Philippines and Formosa, and possibly other Far East countries. Some official quarters said the state department had sug gested a postponement until July. In Tokyo Wednesday night, Chief Cabinet Secre tary Etsusaburo Shiina said Japan was not considering recommending a postpone ment. Arrangements for the Presi dent's long swing across the Pacific are going forward, of ficials said, despite continued anti-American demonstrations by left-wing elements in Japan. Students, socialists and some labor union members have been demonstrating for six days against pro - American Premier Nobusake Kishi and the new U. S. - Japanese se curity treaty. 1,825 Degrees to Be Awarded at OSC Corvallis It'PD A total of 1,825 degrees, including a record 332 master's degrees, will be conferred June H by Oregon State college at its 91st annual commencement exercises.

Nelson A. Rocke feller's announced availability for a draft for the Republican presidential nomination caused hardly a ripple today among COP leaders. Although he bowed out five months ago before he ever be came an announced candidate, Republican leaders generally assumed that Rockefeller wanted the nomination and would take it-if offered. Hence they were not sur prised by his statement at Al bany Wednesday that he was available for a draft. But Rockefeller himself conceded this was only a remote possi bility. Sprague Elected Chairman of Advisory Group Salem -HTD- Former Gov. Charles A. Sprague Wednes day was elected chairman of Gov. Mark Hatfield's 17-mem-ber advisory committee on re organization of state govern ment. Former Gov. Robert D. Holmes, Portland, was named vice chairman. Hatfield said he felt the three main objectives of the reorganization plan to be sub mitted to the 1961 Legislature are strengthening of related programs, possible reduction of the number of state boards and commissions and reduc tion in the number of inde pendent elected officials -1 maKing inem appointive. Among the tentative pro posals are making the posi tions of attorney general, labor commissioner and sup erintendent of public instruc tion appointive instead of elec tive. Another proposal would have functions of the board of control taken over by new integrated agencies. Freeman Holmcr. state fi nance director, said the gen eral outline was to try to re duce the 171 agencies of state government to 91. Twelve committee members attended the first meeting.
