Caption Description Chijoji Nakagawa, former Mayor of Uwajima City, Japan, visited United Nations Headquarters today and presented Secretary-General U Thant with a personal gift of a small bronze replica of the Japanese peace bell which stands in front of United Nations Headquarters. The large bell had been cast from coins collected by Japanese school children in a plan originated and organized by Mr. Nakagawa.
Here, Mr. Nakagawa is seen striking the large bell, after having asked permission to do so. The bell which was given to the UN in 1954 by Japanese UN Association was last struck on 4 October 1966 by seven children from the UN International School on the First Anniversary of the visit of Pope Paul VI to the UN.
