JAPANESE PICKETS PROTEST USE OF AIRPORT FOR WAR
In an effort to block U.S. use of Itazuke airport as a base for B-52s in the war in Vietnam, the Fukouka Prefectural Congress Against the Revision of the Constitution and Nuclear Arming began picketing the airport August 25,
About 100 members sét up a barricade of six wooden frames, each about 5 feet high and 13 feet wide on a highway near the end of one of the runways. They ran up 20 red flags on 23-foot poles attached to four cars. Airport officials feared these would interfere with planes.
Police sought to remove the barricades. The leaders of the demonstrators, all Socialists, resisted and were arrested. They said that the demonstration would go on indefinitely.
