Love in the Diet

Delegate Kiyoko Miki, 27, the Japanese Diet's glamor girl, is somewhat bucktoothed, but Japanese connoisseurs say she has "something of the siren in her." Explaining her election in a hotly contested Osaka district, the Nippon Times said: "Whatever she lacked in political acumen she made up amply in sex appeal." Last week, Kiyoko was having Dietary troubles: she had fallen in love with a dashing fellow delegate, Kiyoshi Kawani-shi, 28 (heir to the Kawanishi Aircraft fortune). Kawanishi already has a wife, who refuses to divorce him. In the Diet, members proposed Kiyoko's removal on grounds that she is "utilizing the House for purposes not on the agenda."
