Kurusu Arrives In Washington Continued from Page 1 Japan is preparing for drastic action. The State Department assigned Joseph W. Ballantine, assistant chief of its far eastern division, to meet Kurusu at Washington airport. Brings New Approach It was learned from reliable sources that Kurusu is bringing a new approach to U. difficulties which have been discussed for months in "exploratory" conversations between Hull and Nomura.

Those conversations made some progress but had reached a point where failure appeared imminent when the new Tojo cabinet dispatched Kurusu. Those in a position to know Kurusu's instructions gave the impression that Japan is now prepared to make more concessions than Nomura was authorized to offer. Tokio Parliament in Session Tokio, Nov. 15 (U.P)-Parliament convened in special session today amid an unprecedented crisis, with the press suggesting that the United States is preparing for the "worst eventuality." The five-day meeting was generally described as "the most important" in Japan's history because of the necessity of taking action to meet the crisis arising from the conflict in relations with America. The initial day was devoted to routine formalities of organization and appointing committees.

Tomorrow the solemn ceremonial of receiving the imperial rescript from Hirohito will occur. The Emperor will deliver his message in person at a joint session of both houses. Emperor to Order Outlay The Emperor will command the Parliamentarians to approve the government's special request for extraordinary military of 3,800,000,000 yen ($874,000,000) and the other extraordinary legislation drafted to meet crisis. The main business of the session will not come up until Monday when Tojo, Foreign Minister Shigenori Togo and Finance Minister Okinobu Kaya speak upon the international situation, particularly relations with the United States, and upon proposed military and domestic measures. The press declared the situation is being "aggravated day by day" by the United States.
