The Tokyo government, fearing that frequent complaints from foreign competitors whom the Japanese outhustle might help stir demands for another revaluation of the yen, is now trying to persuade the nation's employees to work fewer hours and take more holidays.

At the very least, it strengthened antibusing forces in the House, where prospects for the bill are cloudy.
