30,000 Police Patrol as Reagan Arrives : Unprecedented Security in Tokyo for 3-Day Talks

TOKYO —  With 30,000 police patrolling the city in the tightest security crackdown ever, President Reagan arrived today for a seven-nation summit in which economic issues will likely be eclipsed by worries about terrorism and the Soviet nuclear reactor disaster.

Reagan was greeted on his arrival by U.S. Ambassador Mike Mansfield and a host of Japanese dignitaries at a specially created landing area at the far end of Haneda Airport.

But the nighttime arrival ceremony was missed by the dozen or so American reporters and photographers who accompanied Reagan on his flight here from Bali, Indonesia. The press was prevented even from watching the President get off Air Force One and shake hands with Japanese dignitaries.

About 40 uniformed officers moved in as soon as the reporters emerged from the presidential jet, first blocking their view of Reagan and then pushing and shoving them away from the aircraft.

Traffic Halted

All traffic was halted as Reagan, in an armored limousine protected by motorcycle outriders and rooftop snipers, rode in a motorcade to the luxurious Okura Hotel, where the presidential party is to be housed for the three-day summit that begins Sunday.

Reagan will meet with leaders of Japan, West Germany, France, Britain, Canada and Italy during the summit, the 12th that has been held.

Checkpoint-controlled streets around the Okura and the New Otani Hotel, the summit headquarters, were lined with helmeted police and armored vehicles. Bomb-sniffing dogs roamed the corridors of several summit venues.

About 30,000 officers are to be mobilized daily to prevent attacks by radicals who have vowed to disrupt the summit. Radicals recently launched five rocket attacks on high-profile targets such as the U.S. Embassy.

‘Juicy Target’

Secretary of State George P. Shultz already had pronounced Tokyo a “juicy target” for terrorists. But presidential spokesman Larry Speakes said Reagan was “confident of his own security.”

Aides said the 75-year-old President was in “great shape” and taking in stride his 22,000-mile, 13-day Asian journey--the longest of his presidency.

Reagan and his wife Nancy left the airport in Bali in separate planes. They kissed each other twice, then Nancy blew him another kiss as the President boarded Air Force One. They will be reunited in Tokyo on Monday after the First Lady visits Malaysia and Thailand.

Asked whether the President was worried about his wife, Speakes replied, “He worries about her when she goes around the block.”
