...potential as political dynamite in Japan, Sato will retain enough public support to avoid reopening negotiations. If neither nation demands new talks, the pact will continue automatically.

Supposedly nonaddicting substitutes are exultantly reported almost every year by research chemists, and are found just as regularly to be addicting in proportion to their effectiveness. Aspirin remains the most widely useful and, for most patients, the safest of analgesics, despite its limited potency...
