~'Tide of Japan' Column; "Domestic Scene: Tur~ulent Summer" by Masashi Kiyo-

~Text ~ Aiming at 'Tomorr~w'
, It is rather late to be surprised now at Zenko Suzuki~s remarkable ability.
"It may be said that there is no one witt~in the party who excels this man in
the accuracy with which he reads the intra-party atmos~here or in the shrewd-
ness wittt which he moves the political situation as he gradually builds up an
outEr moat."
While saying this, a close associate of the prime minister admires in parti-
_ cular the ability to manage the political situation which Zenka Suzuki, the
most unexpected of unexpected prime ministers and presidents, is actually
sriowing. Also, he smiles with satisfaction, saying "if it continues as is
without accident, all roads lead to the road toward reelection as president."
At the oui.set Prime Minister Suzuki did not stand at the summit of power as
a result of having accumulated a training to be prime minister from early on.
In any event, regardless of whether such a top leader is right or wrong for
tr~ people, he is truly a unique prime minister in the sense that those within
the party could actually feel that the seat of power was unexpectedly within
reach, thinking that "if Zenko can fulfill the duties of prime minister and
president, so can I." It is ironic that, as for the current within the party,
this prime minister has begun to show signs of "long term pol~tical power"
apart from his own plan or that of those around him. Of course, there are
many "].ying-in-wait" factions waiting for the opportunity to undermine and
grab onto at a moment's notice the weak points and mismanagement of the Suzuki
administration. The present situation is that their chance to undercut has
been rlearly blocked and they are at a loss. But of course, 01Zong term politi-
cal power" is not altogc~ther firmly fixed. The famous line of tfie late Masa-
,jiru Kawashima, "sekai wa issun-saki wa yami~' ("The pol3tical world knows not
what tomorrow may bring") is poignant for no one less than the present prime
minister. And then, the prime minister's tactic ofl prudently buildin~ up
an outer moat and the contest of wits by the "sma11 fry" commanders who aim

Pr~me Mintster Suzuki~s Determ~nation
With Prime Minister Ohira's sudden deatfi and decis~ve victories by members of
both Houses in elections held the same day as the background, it is said that
when he suddenly had the top seat, Prime Minister Suzuki resolved, "I will
never follow in Ohira's tracks." While Ohira was alive, Prime 'Minister Suzuki
was always "chief of staff" of the Ohira faction but was not always on the
same track with Ohira's political actions. As for the track trea3 by Ohira,
he blundered--~in terms of the party~ he lacked fiarmony with ~ukuda and Miki,
both of whom had been prime ministers, and his intra-party management was a
series of bitter struggles, and in terms of policy, his tenacity at "rebuild-
ing the economy must be handled by me alone" was too direct and he was badly
burned wrestling head-on with the general consumption tax problem.
As for what kind of iiurdles there will be in 1981 for the Suzuki administra-
tion which began its political power in any event in a situation that has to
be described as groping, there are three points.
The first point is that nothing happens to Kakuei Tanaka and Takeo Fukuda,
who continue to maintain as strong a control as ever over the party, not to
mention their own factions, even after stepping down as prime minister, and
who are the two mainstays of the Suzuki regime. The second is that the Tanaka
and Fukuda factions do not crash head~on over the pr.esidentail primary election
system. And finallyy that he 3s not driven to a large tax increase in the
preparation of the JFY1982 budget.
Getting over these hurdles is nothing less than not treading the late Ohira's
tr~ck. When the prime minister's handling of the political situation until
now is analyzed, the fact that each political phenomenon is concerned with
getting over these hurdles slowly but steadily appears as the real image.
Factional Balance
The fact that "intense good fortune" uncannily never leaves him can be cited
as one more essential element supporting Prime Minister Suzuki's present posi-
tion. If former Prime Minister Ohira had not died suddenly, there would not
have been a Prime Minister Suzuki. One can go so far as to say that that in
itself is "intense good fortune." Early in January, the report that "Former
Prime Minister Tanaka collapses" instantly shocked the Nagatacho vicinity,
and Prime Minister Suzuki heard this xeport overseas (on a tour of the five
ASEAN nations). Similarly in the past, Prime M~nister Eisaku Sato, on an
oversease trip, quickly returned home upon receipt of the news of tfie sudden
death of Shigeru Yoshida, his beloved mentor. But, in the dimension that
these extraordinary events directly concern the political power structure,
it could be said that this recent event was a far more momentous unexpected
event.

It was reported that ~x'~.me M~ni.Stex Suzuk~ cou],d not ~peak ~o~ a~oment at
his overseas location; former Prime Minister Tanalca'S cond~,tion stabilized,
- so the prime minister was able to go on wi�thout any proble~m. It goes without
saying that those supporting tEie Suzuki regime are tfie three 1ead~ng factions
of Tanaka, Fukuda and Suzuki, but a mishap for Tanaka or Fukuda could become
the trigger for mobilization of the existing factions ~rTthin the party. This
would have important relevance for the Suzuki regime. It may be safely said
that the fact the new leaders (tfiey have lost some of their fresfiness), Shin-
taro Abe (Fukuda faction), Noboru Takeshita (Tanaka faction), Ichiro Nakagawa
(1'Jakayama group) cannot move at all originates in the control by these Dons.
If this composition callapses either from Tanaka or Fukuda, it is possible
that even those beneath the prtm~: m.in~ster may b2gin to confer about escape
from control of the old men in ~pite of a fuction~l reocganization.
_ ~iotline witl~ T~ukuda lteported
As for former Prime Minister Fukuda, in one sense, he wields power as the key
to the birth oF Suzuki's political power. It is rumored that in comparison
to former Prime Minister Tanaka, a weight of "7 to 3," not "6 to 4" is at-
tached to former Prime Minister Fukuda. There is rumored to be a Fukuda-
Suzuki hotline, especially on diplomatic questions.
In the past Prime Minister Sato, setting up a two wheel "Tanaka-Fukuda"
structure, built a strong long term political power; and Prime Minister Suzuki
also closely resembles the Sato political power from the time when he took over
the seat of political power, succeeding the previous regime's mishap. It is
true that Sato built up a Tanaka-Fukuda two wheel rivalry within his own fact-
ion, and besides that erected a solid castle with the influential men called
the five magistrates. In comparison, Suzuki's base is far weaker. It is all
the more necessary for him to be quite sensitive about riding both wheels
in his position in which Tanaka and Fukuda stand at the top and still command
strong factions. Balancing the two wheels which can sometimes be jerky,
whet' a"6 to 4" or "7 to 3" relationship, will be Prime Minister Suzuki's
unrivaled task.
It can be sairi that former Prime Minister Fukuda's comment on Suzuki, "Prime
Minister Suzuki has no self-interest," is quite laudatory. Returning from his
trip to the U.S. in late March, Fukuda immediately held talks with the prime
minister; of course, there was the suggestion for a Japan-U.S. summit confer-
ence, but also a rather detailed exchange of opinions on long~standing questions
of domestic politics. Concerning the cabinet reshuffle question which is one
~ of the focuses of the post-summer political situation, in the middle of April,
Fukuda displayed a viewpoint which so much as said "a November reshuffle is
common sense." Certain rumors that the Meij~ro area (Tanaka's residence) is
in a rage about the reported Fukuda~Suzuki hotline fly about off and on in the ~
Nagatacho area. But in reality, whether this is really his mind or not is a
different story. For example, the prime minister is satisf~actorily taking
the "rock throwing" from the Mei~iro direc*.ion with his trump card of cabinet
member and party officer personnel appointments.

kawamoto Fac[ion Shut O~it
As for the direction of the pres~dential primary election, he finally succeeded
in making it "exist in name but disappear in re:.lity," a~}d solved th3.s hurdle
as extremely small. As for former Prime Minister Fukuda~ he was a hardline
advocate of freezing the presidential primary election because of his past
bitter experience of having been defeated and having his plans upset by Ohira.
- Accordi.ngly, the Suzuki regime was wary of confusion over the official election
regu~ations. Even former Prime Minister Fukuda chose to maintain the Suzuki
regime; and the Suzuki regime is now "settling down" without strife. Converse--
ly speaking, for Kawamoto, minister of the Economic Planning Agency and one of
those aiming at "tomorrow," this resulted in his one weapon---~the presidential
primary election----being stripped from him. This was the same as having one
troublesome opponent who threatened the pri~?e minister's "tomorrow" eliminated.
Despite the fact that large numbers within the party already were inclined to
havinfi the election "exist in name but disappear in reality," the Kawamoto
faction screamed "opposition" with no other alternative left. But wlien the
fighting ring is narrowed, it is common sense to exercise immediately the
ne:ct plan to gain power; the. political style of Kawamoto who is limited in
his ability to adapt to circumstances over and above the tragedy of the Kawa-
moto ~action not being blessed with staff is not a troublesome enemy for Prime
Ministec Suzuki.
Timing of 'Administrative Reform'
As for the f inal hurdle, the Suzuki-style staging is no~a at its peak concern-
ing the preparation of the JFY1982 budget. What surpris,ed the political world
was the excellent timing more than the intensity of the statement, "I will
give political life to administrative and financial reform" which the prime
minister made reference to at the Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry meet-
ir.g on March 18.
With the approved JFY1981 budget acquiring a firm footing, his technique of
driving hard for a resolution of the 1982 budget to the point where most saw
that "next caill be the direction of important budget related bills" was extr_a-
ordinary. It seemed that it was like a rocket bomb whose timing the prime
minister had continuously gauged deep inside himself, so much so that even .
Chief Cabinet Secretary Miyazawa, his right hand man, made a dubious express-
ion, "Hm, political life..." It is said that the prime minister's calculation
of "the compilation of the 1982 budet will be a major victory or defeat with
either a large tax increase or a cut in expenditures" was very quick. At
the end of last year when the preparation of the 1981 budget was finished---
this was the first thing the prime minister dealt with~---what recurred deep
inside the prime minister was "how to complete the 1982 budget." This is
no trivial matter. At the beginning of January~ he began secretly drawing
_ up the scenario of "a policy of subsidy cu:.s in an administrative and financial
reform---moving up by one month the decision on the 1982 budget ceiling (the
framework of estimated requests)~-~in the fall, dealing with a.bill on subsidy
cuts in an extraordinary session of the D~et on administrative and financial
reforms.

Afterwards, the prime mini.ster casually commented, ~'zf one asks which will be
chosen, a large tax increase budget or an expenditure cut budget~ isn~t the
(party's) answer already dec~ded?" But the secret of h~s cleverness at build-
ing an outer moat is perhaps in his conception that "~a full year is necessary
to effect the latter (expenditure cut)."
Cabinet Reshuffle--~-When
Well, while getting over the three hurdles is steadily progressing, the cabi-
net reshuffle is raising its head. At the same time that the reshuffle is
one major trump card for maintaining political power, it is also a"demon"
suddenly changing to a dangerous object weakening the cabinet if one mistake
is made. It can be said that surmounting this reshuffle which will definitely
be carried out this year is one of the final elements of the road to reelection.
But there are many dangerous aspects. Because the reshuffle is not an easy
operation, given the pressure from the Tanaka faction which increased to 102
members and the problem of ho~a to continue to skillfully maintain a contain-
ment of Nakasone, minister of the Administrative Management Agency, and Kawa-
moto, minister of the Economic Planning Agency. At first, a report of a Nov-
ember reshuffle was launched by the Tanaka faction administration, but actually
this was a"curve ball" based on the strategy of proposing an early stage re-
shuffle immediately after the Ottawa summit in July. As it was circulated
that there are 26 candidates for cabinet minister in the Tanaka faction alone,
the early assimilation of the cabinet minister's list was an issue for the
Tanaka faction. It is common knowledge among political circles that Ni-
kaido, chairman of the Executive Council, is the behind-.the-scenes secretary-
_ general, but the probl.em of whether he will be put in the position of secre-
tary-general in name and in reality or will enter the cabinet as he so dearly
wishes has expanded, and so the Tanaka faction's countermeasures are a crucial
point for the prime minister.
With the report of a"November reshuffle" coming one after another from Secre- �
tary-general Sakurauchi, former Prime Minister Fukuda and the Tanaka faction
leaders, the viewpoint that "from a common sense standpoint t'ne Cabinet re-
shuffle is probably right" is hardening within the party. For the prime mini-
ster's camp whose tactic must certainly be "even is we're silent, the reshuffle
vi~~w will burst forth within the party, especially from the direction of Mei-
,jiro. 5o we'll wait for that and after calmly pulling it to ourselves...,"
his free hand has apparently been snatched away. The way I read the prime
minister's feeling is that even with such a situation, those around the prime
minister would rather not abandon the early reshuffle in July. This is based
on the logic that if the road to the compilation of a no tax increase 1982
budget is completely established by June~ it will be alright to renovate the
system with a cabinet reshuffle. There is no doubt that the prime minister
will employ decisive action with a timing in which his leadership can be fully
displayed to the end, not a decis~ve action on the reshuffle as a result of~
being pushed by the winds within the party.

Road to Reelection
The Nakasone and Kawamoto camps who aim for "tomorrow" have headaches on how
to cope wi.th the Suzuki regim~'s constant alert management of the political
situation. As for the group of leaders aiming at the "tomorrow" after "to--
morrow," they rely on others waiting for a"misgovernment" which can make
matters worse. Nakasone is hedged in under the flag of administrative reform,
just as the prime minister planned in the first cabinet formation. Can he
(Nakasone) bind himself to Tanaka or Fukuda, in particular to Tanaka, or will
he resort to cooperation with the Kawamoto camp. There is almost no chance
of victory as long as he does not bring ei*_her Tanaka or Fukuda over to him-
self. If so, would it be advisable for him to get into the three faction
structure and, after getting into one of the real mainstream factians, wait
for his opportunity; i+ith precisely everything�going against him, he must
think before taking the plunge.
Likewise, the Kawamoto faction is at a loss on how to give a telling blow, .
except for commiting themselves to the current of the majority within the
party. "Increasing their support power within the party" continues to be a
major weakpoint co~non to both of them. In such a situation, the possibility
is far greater that they will seize the opportunity, tenaciously continuing
supportive activities for the triple Tanaka-Fukuda-Suzuki factions in a battle
of cooperation for the Suzuki regime rather than opposing the Suzuki regime
in the form of an alliance with one of the present three mainstream factions,
making a Nakasone-Kawamoto cooperation the axis.
Past administrations have corroborated that the most powerful men unexpectedly
fall into a pit at the point in time when'confidence becomes excessive. Will
the pitfall for Suzuki be the administrative and financial reforms calling for
subsidy cuts or the cabinet reshuffle? What kind of trap is waiting for him
next year at the end of his present term of office? Indeed, it cannot be
denied that the path to reelection is still very much in flux.

THORIUM REACTOR DRAWING ATTENTION
Tokyo NIKKEI SANGYO SHIMBUN in Japanese 20 May 81 p 10
[Article: "Coupling of Accelerator and Reactor for Abundant Fuel and High Level
of Safety"]
[Text] A new nuclear reactor which combines an accelerator and a molten salt
breeder reactor is presently drawing considerable attention. This is a nuclear
reactor which uses as fuel the element thorium which is said to be 4 times as
abundant on this earth as uranium, and its development will represent a giant
step forward in resolving the energy resources problem, Director Kazuma
Furukawa of the High Temperature Molten Materials Laboratory of the Japan
Atomic Energy Research Institute who is one of the innovators said, "By investing
5-6 billion yen over the next 15 years, I believe we will be able to realize the
development of a practical reactor." Policy research groups of the Liberal
Democratic party have initiated study on this sub3ect.
Liberal Democratic Party Initiates Study
Thorium 232 is an element which is slightly lighter than natural uranium. It
will absolutely not undergo nuclear fission in its natural state, but once it
absorbs a neutron, it is transformed into uranium 233 which can undergo nuclear
fission ~ust as uranium 235 or plutonium 239.
This is why by the use of an accelerator to convert thorium element into uranium ~
233 and burning this product in a molten salt bath to generate electric power
is the process envisioned in this new concept. A molten salt reactor of the
type which proposes the use of thorium as fuel was researched in the past at
the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the United States, but the maj~r feature
of this new concept is the coupling together of an accelerator with a molten salt
nuclear reactor.
The innovators are part of a group at the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute
h~aded by director Furukawa, Prof essor Koshidan Tsukada of the Nippon University
Atomic Energy Laboratory, and principal investigators at the Japan Atomic Energy
Research Institute.
The mixture of the fluorides of thorium, lithium, and beryllium is known as a
molten salt, and this salt turns into a liquid melt with properties similar to

water when heated to about S00�C. Th~.s molten salt is placed within a large
container made of graphite and is bombarded with protons ~hydrogen atom nuclei).
This irradiation converts the thorium in the melt to uranium 233 which then enters
into nuclear fission with the evolution of heat which th en can be used to
generate electric power. This is the overall concept.
Now, when just a single accelerator-m~lten salt breeder reactor is involved, the
- electrical energy generated amounts to just about that sufficient to operate
the accelerator, so the plan proposes surrounding the accelerator with about
ten mplten salt reactors, and the excess uranium 233 created by the accelerator
is burned by these peripheral reactors to generate electric power.
Director Furukawa has come out with a specific concept according to which the
accelerating energy developed at the accelerator is of the order of one
billion electron volts and 300 milliamps. The fluoridzs of lithium, beryllium,
and tliurium present it~ Llie mol ten salt are used. The thermal output of the
reactor is of the order of 1.2-2.0 million kilowatts. Roughly 600,000 kW is
expended to operate the accelerator.
This accelerator-molten salt breeder reactor is provided with the following
characteristic features. 1) Since the reactor core is a molten pool, the
net result is a simplified reactor core construction can be employed. 2) There
is no radiation damage on materials and molten salt. 3) Chemical treatment is
readily applied, and maintaining atmospheric pressure within the reactor at
normal barometric pressure greatly enhances the safety factor. It is possible
to scale up in order to conduct the experiment frem the small scale experiments.
These are some of the precautionary items which need to be promoted.
The major problem is how to develop molten salt reactors which Japan has had
very little exposure thus far with regard to any possible dangers and proton
accelerators. At the present time, basic research is being conducted as the
successive development of the experimental reactor and test reactor increase in
size, and it is anticipated that the sought for goal will be attained in about
15 vears.
When director Furukawa announced this concept to the general meeting of the
Nuclear Energy General Meeting, policy research gro ups of the Liberal Democratic
party were gi~eatly interested because of their great interest in the energy
probleta and initiated studies on just how to implement this concept. Research
and development costs for nuclear power have ballooned during the recent years
making difficult atlocation of funds, but there is considerable thought being
directed at just how to put into practical shape this new type nuclear reactor
concept which was develop~.d by domestic technology.

NUMERICAL CONTROL DEVICE--An automatic numerical control (NC) device operable
by even an inexperienced worker has been developed by Yamazaki Machinery Works,
Ltd. According to the company, the new NC device is a decided departure in
concept from the conventional devices requiring much time and trouble, involv-
ing computer programming and operating care. The new device--Mazatrol T-1--
can be operated by almost anybody because once it is put into operation, it
_ asks for instructions in its TV-like display screen in an ordinary language
according to materials, products and their shapes and forms. The operator just
gives tY~e answers. Only a few specific working instructions will be needed in
special sophisticated jobs because the device remembers the majority of differ-
ent modes of work. Planning to market the innovational product the world over,
the company is developing many language versions of it. Already having devel-
oped a Japanese and an English language models, it will follow them up with
German, French, Spanish and Russian models during this month. [Text] [Tokyo

UNIQUE CERAMIC BAKING FACILITY--A unique ceramic baking facility has been com-
pleted by the Government Industrial Research Institute, Osaka, for the purpose
of developing revolutionary kinds of ceramic industrial materials, including
fiber-reinforced ceramic (FRC). According to the institute, it is known as an
HIP--hot isosratic pressure--system, and is capable of pressurizing materials
up to 2,000 atmospheres and heating them up to 2,000 de~grees Centigrade. The
HIP system is already well known, but even its best industrial system had been
limited in capacity to much less pressure and temperature. Its FRC research
envisages creation of a new super strength industrial ceramic material by im-
planting eitlier 5ilicon carbidc~ fibers or carbon fibers in a parent material,
silicon nitride. Even harder than silicon nitride, rated as the next hardest
to diamond, the prospective FRC will be completely free from the vulnerability
of ceramics to breakage. The principal aim is to develop extremely heat�-
resistant types of ceramic material for the government's new high-efficiency
gas turbine under its oil energy-saving Moonlight Project. [Text] [Tokyo

research, with collaborator rieiji planning to upgrade their development
efforts to clinical tests as early as 1982. The company chose the amnion-to-
interferon route, huping that it will create a new type of interferon with
different structures from alpha or beta type. Amnion is a thin, tough mem-
branous sac that contains a watery f luid in which a human embryo is suspended.
The interferon raw material can be thus obtained from a mother during or after
birth of a baby. The professor told an interferon meeting in Tokyo that the
interferon made from amnion should be effective when applied to human skin.
Besides the well known effect of interferon against viruses, he saidy the new
type of interferon is effective on cells infected by viruses. Meiji intends
to build facilities large enough to produce "a few billions" of units per month
so that the company, with assistance from the Kitazato professor, can use the
output for various tests. Initially, it will try to cultivate amnion cells.
Meiji is considering eventual possibility of producing "amnion interferon" by
means of genetic engineering technology. [Text] [Tokyo JAPAN EOONOMIC

INDUSTRIAL ROBOT LEASING--Japan Robot Leasing Co. will lease industrial robots
to foreign countries, possibly from this fall, in tie-ups with European and
American companies. The company was set up in April, last year by 24 industrial
robot makers, including Mitsubishi Electric Corp., through the good offices of
the Ministry of International Trade & Industry. Using low interest loans from
the Japan Uevelopment Bank and city banks, the companyi.s leasing robots to
minor companies at a cheap rate. During its first business year, the firm
leased about 150 units, worth 1,44 million. Robots for pressing valued at
about ~20 million or so are most popular. Foreign potential demand for
Japanese robots is so strong that the firm believes that its leasing contracts
with overseas interests will increase at an accelerated rate. It is now under
negotiations with the Export-Import Bank of Japan to secure fund for its leas-
ing to foreign interests. [Text] [Tokyo JAPAN ECONOMIC JOliRNAL in English
