A compromise on a sharp dispute between Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger and Secretary of State George P. Shultz over a strategic arms treaty was being worked on by President Reagan, White House officials said. Mr. Weinberger and Mr. Shultz differ on whether the United States should continue to adhere to the six-year-old strategic treaty with the Soviet Union that has never been ratified.
The Soviet Union will not attempt to match the U.S. program to develop space-based defenses against nuclear missiles, concentrating instead on building cheaper offensive nuclear missiles that could overwhelm the “Star Wars” shield, Colonel-General Nikolai Chervov said in an interview with the Washington Post. Chervov, the equivalent of a four-star general and a senior department head on the Soviet general staff, also suggested that the Kremlin has concluded that the U.S.-Soviet arms control process is on the verge of collapse.
Hungarians voted today in parliamentary and municipal elections under a new law requiring at least two candidates for each seat. Voting was not compulsory, but much pressure was brought on the 7.5 million electors to vote. Polling stations reported a heavy turnout. Results are expected late Sunday. Elections have been uncontested in Hungary since 1949, a year after the Communist Party consolidated power. Apart from Poland, which has introduced a similar system to Hungary, this is the only Soviet bloc nation to offer its people a choice of candidates for every seat.
A judge in Milan, Italy, has absolved American Archbishop Paul Marcinkus and two other directors of the Vatican bank of involvement in a fraudulent loan, legal officials said. Marcinkus, 63, president of the bank, formally known as the Institution for Religious Works, and two of the bank’s directors, Luigi Mennini and Pellegrino De Stroebel, were formally notified in February, 1984, that they were under investigation for suspected embezzlement resulting from a loan, then worth $70 million, made to the Italian property company Italmobiliare in 1972.
By some accounts, it is little more than a trivial issue, involving something like 50 cents a day for the average worker. But the referendum this weekend on Italy’s system of wage indexing has become a major political test for both the Government and the Communist opposition. Prime Minister Bettino Craxi went so far as to announce this week that he would resign in ”one minute” if his side lost. The fight is over the Craxi Government’s policy to cut back on automatic wage increases that Italian workers get under what is known as the ”scala mobile,” or ”moving staircase.” Voters on Sunday and Monday are being asked to vote ”yes” or ”no” on a Communist proposal to restore four points cut from the scale by the Socialist-led and Christian Democratic-dominated Government.
Arsonists poured gasoline on two cars belonging to U.S. military personnel and set them on fire in separate suburbs of Athens, police said. The vehicles were owned and parked outside the homes of Air Force Sgt. George Carter of the U.S. Hellenikon base and Navy petty officer Daniel McGuire of the Nea Makri communications base. U.S. officials said the attack brought to five the number of cars owned by U.S. personnel stationed at U.S. bases in Greece that have been destroyed in 10 days.
Four of the 23 Finnish soldiers held by the Israeli-backed militia in southern Lebanon were released yesterday as a “good-will gesture.” The release was ordered by General Antoine Lahd, the commander of the South Lebanese Army. General Lahd, however, said that until 11 South Lebanon Army militiamen in the hands of the Shiite militia Amal were returned, he would not free the rest of the hostages. He also ruled out deals with the Beirut-based leader of Amal, Nabih Berri.
Iran said it bombarded Iraqi territory today in ”a massive attack” in retaliation for Iraqi air raids, and Iraq said its warplanes raided targets in five Iranian towns. The Iranian press agency, monitored in London, said reports from the war front indicated that ”flames and smoke from burning oil tankers and ammunition dumps could be seen for hours.” The agency said the target of the shelling was a 43-mile strip of territory west of the Shatt-al-Arab waterway, including the southern port city of Basra. Tehran said earlier that its aircraft had raided targets in Baghdad, after a ground attack on the southern Persian Gulf war front Friday night in which hundreds of Iraqi soldiers were killed or wounded. Iraq denied both incidents.
A Soviet armored column smashed through the last guerrilla lines and relieved the besieged Afghan border town of Barikot after two weeks of fierce fighting, rebel officials said today. They said that Soviet commandos were battling Afghan guerrillas on nearby mountains today. Barikot stands at the head of the Kunar Valley near the border with Pakistan. Guerrilla forces have besieged it for months at a time for the last four years, and it has had to be resupplied by air for the last year. A senior official of the guerrilla alliance said Soviet tanks and armored personnel carriers reached Barikot late Friday night. He said the armor headed a force of about 10,000 Soviet troops that launched a major offensive three weeks ago to seize the Kunar and lift the siege at Barikot, the site of an Afghan Army garrison. ”But we are not finished,” the official said, adding that the rebels ”are still strong.”
One guerrilla official said of today’s news from the Kunar, ”It looks like a big victory for the Russians.” Thousands of villagers were fleeing the valley, trying to cross the mountains into Pakistan, the rebels said. The Afghan Government radio said in a broadcast monitored in Islamabad tonight that villages in the Kunar were holding meetings to express support for the Government. The broadcast was the Kabul regime’s first comment on events in Kunar.
President Reagan prepares for the visit by Prime Minister of India Rajiv Gandhi. The United States and India are scheduled to announce a joint space effort next week that will include the launching of an Indian astronaut in 1986 along with American astronauts, Administration officials said today. Details of the venture on the space shuttle are to be disclosed during the visit of the Indian Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi, to Washington and to the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center in Houston. The visit by the Indian leader is designed to ease strains with the United States, reach a series of space and technology agreements and open a nationwide cultural program, the Festival of India. A highlight of the visit, Administration officials said, will be a series of announcements on joint efforts in space, science and technology. These include plans to put an Indian payload specialist on the space shuttle next year and the launching of a satellite on the same mission that is partly designed to expand the uses of radio and television in Indian villages.
Indian troops and police fired into battling crowds of Hindus opposing government caste policies, killing four people and wounding 20. It was the second day of violence in Ahmedabad and Baroda in Gujarat state in western India, where there were calls for a general strike to protest policies that reserve college places and provide rapid civil service promotion for low-caste Hindus. Police used tear gas and placed central Ahmedabad under curfew to curb the fighting.
Vietnam’s official radio said today that United States hostility ”would only do harm to efforts seeking Americans missing in action” in the Vietnam War. The Hanoi radio broadcast said allegations that Vietnam had tortured American captives and forced them to work in labor camps were groundless. The United States authorities say 2,441 servicemen and 42 civilians are listed as missing in Indochina. Hanoi has repeatedly said that it holds no more American prisoners of war. President Reagan said Thursday that Vietnam must give the ”fullest possible accounting” of American missing in action before normalization of United States-Vietnamese relations can be considered.
China accused the United States of “groundless attacks” for threatening to trim U.S. contributions to a U.N. population program because of reports of forced abortion in China. Zhou Gucheng, head of the National People’s Congress health committee, said Peking opposes any coercive practice, including forced abortions, and that population policy is each nation’s sovereign right and Washington is violating this principle. U.N. officials have said that their work in China involves contraception, education and research and not abortion.
The Philippine military ordered a stepped-up hunt for Communist guerrillas in Manila after the capture last week of a ranking official of the New People’s Army wounded in a shootout with police in a Manila slum district. The rebel was identified as Alexander Birondo, 35, head of an assassination squad operating in Manila.
President Reagan makes a Radio Address to the Nation on Nicaragua. In his weekly radio talk today, President Reagan appealed for new aid to the rebels. ”In the House, some claim that the U.S. plans to become militarily involved in Central America,” he said. ”Well, no such plan exists.” Mr. Reagan said Representatives Robert H. Michel of Illinois and Joseph M. McDade of Pennsylvania, both Republicans, and Dave McCurdy, an Oklahoma Democrat, would present a House bill on Wednesday to provide $27 million to the rebels. But the House is expected to bar the C.I.A. from managing the funds.
The Nicaraguan rebels, under prodding from the Reagan Administration, are expected to make a new effort next week to project a more democratic image, according to Administration officials and Congressional sources. The officials said the rebels would issue a ”constitution-like document” or code of conduct designed to insure civilian control of the rebels’ military arm and to soften the group’s identification with the regime of the deposed dictator Anastasio Somoza Debayle. The goal is to reduce the power and lower the profile of the rebels’ military leaders, who had closer ties to the Somoza dictatorship than did the rebels’ political leaders. Rebel leaders and their supporters in the Administration assert that Congressional opinion is swinging somewhat in their direction, and they want to reinforce the momentum.
Dr. Josef Mengele lived in Brazil between 1961 and 1974 and died in Sao Paulo in 1979, according to testimony given by a Hungarian immigrant to the Brazilian police. Gitta Stammer said the man who managed her family’s farm admitted he was Dr. Mengele after she confronted him in 1962 with a newspaper photograph of the Auschwitz camp doctor.
Juan Perón’s populist Government handed out bread and cider to the masses in the 1940’s. Nowadays, President Raul Alfonsin, who routed the Perónists 18 months ago, is distributing flour, sugar and corned beef hash. The distribution of food might have once seemed odd in a country where the bounty of cattle and therefore beef is legendary. But growing numbers of Argentines, especially children, are suffering from malnutrition. In the biggest government handout in the country’s history, Mr. Alfonsin is trying to cut the hunger by feeding some 16 percent of the population, or more than a million families, with monthly deliveries of 30-pound boxes of food.
The famine in 19 African countries continues to worsen, according to a United Nations report issued this week. In the Sudan alone, the number of victims will reach 11.5 million, or more than half the population, by the end of the year, it said. ”Sudan could witness a disaster even more devastating than Ethiopia’s,” a United Nations official said.
The leader of the insurgents who seek the overthrow of the Marxist Government of Angola says he has rejected an American compromise proposal for the withdrawal of some of the Cuban soldiers in the country. The Cubans back the government in Luanda, which the insurgent leader, Jonas Savimbi, has been battling for 10 years. In a speech and a news conference, Mr. Savimbi also said he expected government troops to mount a new offensive against his forces, which claim to control the southeastern third of Angola. Mr. Savimbi, leader of the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola, praised President Reagan for his stand toward the Soviet Union, but said he believed the State Department sought to undermine the White House with its policies in southern Africa.
Despite persistent objections from the United States Government, Cuba is expanding its activities in Africa, and Cuban officials say it is unlikely that their combat troops in Angola will be leaving in the near future. According to Giraldo Mazola, the Deputy Foreign Minister for Africa and Asia, Cuba has technical and medical teams in 15 African countries and is negotiating to send specialists in agriculture and public health to a 16th, Burkina Faso. United States officials say Cuba has up to 30,000 troops in Angola and about 5,000 in Ethiopia. There are also Cuban advisers with the Polisario guerrillas fighting Moroccan troops in the Western Sahara.
Three black men were killed and one was injured in South Africa during an attack on the home of a black policeman by a crowd of about 350, police said. They said the policeman and two guards opened fire on the crowd at Zwide, a black township near Port Elizabeth, an area that has had the worst of South Africa’s recent anti-apartheid violence. Black mobs have attacked police and other government workers, charging that they collaborate with the white minority government.
President Reagan, stung by controversy over Pentagon purchases, is expected to announce this week an independent commission to study defense procurement, a White House official said. The chairman of the commission is expected to have “extraordinarily strong credentials” in defense management, said the official, who asked not to be identified. Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger issued a statement saying he “fully supports the concept of a presidential commission.” But a senior defense official said the secretary privately opposes the commission because “it looks like he can’t manage his department.”
While unraveling what may be the largest espionage ring in United States history, Federal officials say they have discovered a new breed of spy. Both in the method of operation attributed to John A. Walker Jr. and the three men being held as his accomplices, and in the kind of damage they may have caused, officials say, this purported spy ring is unlike any other. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has charged in court documents and interviews that Mr. Walker, 47 years old, recruited friends and relatives around the world, coached them on spying and then, like a businessman visiting branch offices, flew in his own small plane to collect the classified material and sell it to the Soviet Union.
But what most concerns American officials is how people holding relatively low positions in the Navy, working together, may have enabled Mr. Walker to break through the system the United States uses to safeguard its most important secrets. ”You protect information by compartmentalizing,” one intelligence source said. That means the details of critical national security matters are spread among several offices so that almost no one has access to all of it. But the F.B.I. charges that Mr. Walker and his accomplices managed to penetrate a variety of facilities.
Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger says he will seek at least a 3 percent increase in the military budget for the fiscal year 1987 on top of an increase to make up for inflation. That budget is now being fashioned in the Pentagon. Moreover, Mr. Weinberger said, he plans to use the same tactics and arguments he has used in the last four years, primarily by citing what he said is the threat that the Soviet Union poses to the United States. In an interview Thursday in his Pentagon office, the Secretary appeared not to have been discouraged by his recent setback in Congress, whose members have made clear that they may not approve an increase in military spending for the fiscal year 1986.
Adoption of Republican policies by liberal Democratic governors continues as the country has become more conservative and as states have sought innovative ways to fill a vacuum caused by the reduction of Federal assistance. These governors have used what had been considered Republican practices – keeping taxes low, instituting stern measures to save money and offering incentives to business and industry in the hope of providing jobs. Nowhere is the change more evident than in Massachusetts, whose Governor, Michael S. Dukakis, relates the state’s economic boom directly to changed political practices.
Most Americans blame foreign trade for the loss of local jobs, and they believe that restrictions on imports are good idea, according to a New York Times/CBS News Poll. They are in favor of trade curbs even though they would have less choice among the products they want to buy. Payment of $355,100 to the widow of one of five anti-Klan demonstrators who were shot to death in a 1979 anti-Klan demonstration in Greensboro, N.C. was ordered by a Federal jury. The payment is to be made by the eight Ku Klux Klansmen, Nazis and Greensboro police officers the jury found liable for wrongful death Friday after a 13-week trial in the $48 million civil suit.
Jurors deliberated for a second day in Claus von Bulow’s retrial in Providence, Rhode Island, without reaching a verdict on charges he twice tried to murder his wealthy wife with insulin injections. The panel spent much of the day reviewing conflicting medical testimony on the cause of the first of Martha (Sunny) von Bulow’s two comas. The jurors also asked to rehear, upon their return today, testimony about a needle and a vial of insulin allegedly found in Von Bulow’s closet. Meanwhile, Father Philip A. Magaldi, 49, of North Providence, a Roman Catholic priest, was indicted on charges he lied in an affidavit that supported Von Bulow’s contention that he had been framed. the Boston Globe reported.
A man already sentenced to die for one murder and facing other charges in a six-state crime spree was found guilty in Cincinnati of aggravated murder and could face another death sentence. Alton Coleman, 29, was convicted in the July 11 strangulation of 15-year-old Tonnie Storey of Cincinnati. The jury will decide today whether to recommend the death penalty. Coleman’s girlfriend, Debra Brown, 22, convicted of the same crime, also could receive the death penalty.
New York Governor Mario Cuomo yesterday attacked Patrick Buchanan, the White House communications director, for implying at a news conference Friday that high-tax states are ”neo-socialist” governments attempting to ”redistribute the wealth.” Mr. Cuomo also accused President Reagan of attempting to spur a tax revolt in the very states that were trying to deliver more local services with less Federal financial help. Mr. Cuomo’s statements came in response to remarks by President Reagan and Mr. Buchanan at a news conference in Washington concerning Mr. Reagan’s tax overhaul proposal and its effect on high-tax states, such as New York. A key provision of the proposal would eliminate the deduction of state and local taxes on Federal income tax returns. Mr. Cuomo contends the plan is unfair to New York and any other state that tries to raise revenue for state programs.
The new chief of the National Park Service said he will limit use of some major parks to reduce human impact. “When in any doubt, we must err on the side of preservation,” William Penn Mott Jr., 75, said after a three-day visit to Yellowstone National Park. And a private conservation group warned in a study to be released today that the national park system is not prepared for new threats posed by heavy use of the parks and development of neighboring lands. The Conservation Foundation proposed a 10-year, $500-million effort to restore park resources and acquire more land.
The Cosmos Club, an all-male bastion of Washington’s elite, moved to end a 13-year-old debate over admitting women by asking prospective members to promise that they will not try to change its single-sex policy. Under new rules, a prospective member must sign a statement that “he has no present intention to work actively to change the club’s membership policy.” Prominent Cosmos Club members include nuclear physicist Edward Teller, U.S. Ambassador to West Germany Arthur F. Burns and former CIA Director William E. Colby.
Feminists rallied today in cities around the country to protest the Roman Catholic Church’s stand against abortion and birth control, squaring off against abortion foes in Boston and chastizing the Pope in Washington. The National Organization for Women also set rallies in Los Angeles; San Francisco; San Jose, California; Rock Island, Illinois; St. Paul, Minnesota; Biloxi, Mississippi; St. Louis; New York; Youngstown, Ohio; Portland, Oregon, and Milwaukee.
The value of American farmland plummeted 12% in the last year — the largest yearly decline since the Great Depression, the Agriculture Department said. Land values, driven by farmers’ credit problems, low commodity prices and high interest rates, dropped for the fourth straight year, a department spokesman said. The Midwest was hardest hit in the last year, suffering losses of 20% or more. The annual assessment of farmland values is compiled through surveys of farmers, lenders, real estate agents, appraisers, farm managers and others involved in farmland markets. Nationally, farmland averaged $697 an acre on April 1, down from $782 last year.
Firefighters using bulldozers and helicopters fought a 12-mile-long wildfire today that threatened homes in north-central Florida and burned up to 21,000 acres in four days. National Guard troops called out Friday by Governor Bob Graham dug fire lines with bulldozers and dropped thousands of gallons of water from helicopters.
The first shipment of food, medical supplies and clothing bought with funds from the USA for Africa Foundation will be loaded tonight aboard a Flying Tigers cargo plane for a flight to Ethiopia and Sudan. The items were bought with money raised by promotional items and the hit single record and album “We Are the World,” recorded by 45 stars who donated their talents. The USA for Africa Foundation has raised $45 million since it was formed in late January, a spokesman said.
117th Belmont: Eddie Maple aboard Creme Fraiche wins in 2:27. Woody Stephens, who had trained three consecutive winners of the Belmont Stakes, outdid himself yesterday by sending out the entry of Creme Fraiche and Stephan’s Odyssey to run 1, 2, half-a-length apart in that order, in the 117th Belmont. The victory made Creme Fraiche the first gelding ever to win the Belmont and Stephens the first trainer to win four consecutive Belmonts.
French Open Women’s Tennis: Chris Evert beats Martina Navratilova 6-3, 6-7, 7-5 for her 17th Grand Slam title and 6th French singles crown. Chris Evert Lloyd had not beaten Martina Navratilova in a Grand Slam tennis tournament since 1982, but she got some compensation by defeating her keenest rival in the French Open final today. It was ”one of the toughest matches of my life,” said Mrs. Lloyd after capturing the clay-court tournament for a record sixth time. The 30-year-old Mrs. Lloyd missed chances to win in straight sets. Then, in the final set, she had to recover from 0-40 at 5-5 to hold serve. That spurred her to break Miss Navratilova for the triumph.
Major League Baseball:
Chris Speier drove in four runs with a homer and a single and Jody Davis cracked a pair of doubles and drove in two runs today to lead Steve Trout and the Chicago Cubs to a 7–3 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The triumph was the Cubs’ third straight and their fifth in the last seven games. It gave them sole possession of first place in the National League East as the Mets dropped a 1–0 decision to St. Louis. The loss was the fifth straight for the Pirates.
In New York, Tommy Herr bangs a 9th inning homer, off Tom Gorman, as the Cardinals edge the Mets, 1–0. John Tudor (3–7) is the winner and is matched for 8 innings by Ed Lynch. Herr will hit just 8 homers this year, but drive in 110 runs. The Cardinals are in 4th place in the National League East, 4 games behind the Cubs.
Cesar Cedeno hit a three-run homer and Dave Parker drove in two runs tonight to lead the Cincinnati Reds over the San Diego Padres, 7–4. Cedeno’s home run, his first of the year, came in the fourth inning after Parker had walked and Tony Perez singled off Dave Dravecky (4–4), who took the loss. The Reds took a 2–0 lead in the first. Gary Redus singled, stole second and, after Dave Concepcion walked, scored on Parker’s single. A sacrifice fly by Perez drove in the second run.
The Braves downed the Dodgers, 7–3. Rick Mahler hurled a seven-hitter and batted in two runs in eight innings and Rafael Ramirez keyed Atlanta’s four-run second inning with a three-run homer. Mahler (9–5), who had lost five of his last six, again fell behind early in the game when he yielded a two-run homer to Pedro Guerrero in the first inning. But after the Braves tied the score, 2–2, in the first, Mahler singled home the run that put the Braves ahead in the second. He also hit a sacrifice fly in the third. The Braves got eight of their 14 hits off the Dodger starter, Orel Hershiser (1–5).
Nolan Ryan allowed three hits over seven innings and Denny Walling drove in two runs for Houston as the Astros beat the Giants, 4–1. Ryan (6–3) struck out seven and walked one. He increased his career strikeout total to 3,961. Frank DiPino took over to start the eighth and gave up three hits, including a run-scoring single by Bob Brenly. Dave Smith relieved with the bases loaded and two outs and retired Jeff Leonard on a long fly ball to end the inning. He then pitched a hitless ninth for his 10th save.
Andre Dawson hit a home run and drove in three runs to lead Montreal to a 4–3 victory over the Phillies. Bryn Smith (6–2) gave up eight hits in six and two-thirds innings for the victory. Gary Lucas got the final out of the seventh inning, and Jeff Reardon pitched two scoreless innings for his major-league-leading 17th save. It was the 12th loss in 15 games for the Phillies.
Mark Gubicza and Dan Quisenberry combined on a five-hitter tonight to lift the Kansas City Royals into first place in the American League West with a 4–1 victory over the California Angels. The 22-year-old right-handed Gubicza, who has lost seven of his last eight decisions dating back to last season, yielded only a pair of singles to Doug DeCinces and Bob Boone before the Angels scored in the ninth. With the Royals leading, 4–0, Daryl Sconiers got a pinch-hit double off Willie Wilson’s glove in center, took third on a groundout and came home when Ruppert Jones lined a single off the rightfielder Pat Sheridan’s glove. That brought on Quisenberry.
The Yankees beat the Brewers this afternoon, 2–1, when Dale Berra hit a line drive single to right field off reliever Bob Gibson that sent Dave Winfield home from second with the winning run in the 13th inning. Winfield singled to open the inning and then stole second. After seven scoreless innings, the Brewers went ahead when Cecil Cooper, batting against the Yankees’ starter, Dennis Rasmussen, singled Paul Molitor home from second with two outs in the eighth inning.

The A’s first baseman broke a 2–2 tie by hitting a Hough both runners.
Bruce Kison scattered seven hits over 7 ⅔ innings and the Red Sox extended their winning streak to six games, edging the Orioles, 2–1.
