Arms plan
rejected
The Soviet Union rejected Pres.
Ronald Reagan's latest arms
reduction proposal, and a top
Kremlin spokesman said Thursday
his country will pull out of the
Geneva arms talks if NATO goes
ahead with deployment of Per
shing II missiles.
Reagan has proposed an interim
agreement allowing the United
States and the Soviet Union a total
of 420 medium-range warheads
each.
But in West Germany, where all
108 Pershing missiles are to be
sited. Chancellor Helmut Kohl
said the Soviets had signaled
possible new concessions at the
Soviet-U.S. talks on medium
range weapons — specifically a
willingness to drop their demand
that British and French nuclear
arsenals be included.
U.S. arms negotiator Paul Nitze
met for over two hours with Soviet
delegate Yuri Kvitsinsky in
Geneva, and said the talks were
continuing. Another session was
set for Wednesday.
Soviet officials were noncom
mittal when asked if the threat to
leave the Geneva talks meant a
temporary walkout or a longer
one.
Vadim Zagladin, a Communist
Party Central Committee official,
also said deployment of U.S.
medium-range missiles would
have a negative impact on the
parallel talks on strategic missiles.
But he did not say if the Soviets
were threatening a walkout from
the strategic arms reduction talks.
In Britain, where the first ship
ment of cruise missiles arrived
Monday, a group of women kept
up their protests and efforts to
blockade the Greenham Common
U.S. Air Force base. Police ar
rested five of them, bringing to
616 the number arrested this
week.
Britain refuses to say how many
cruise missiles have arrived, but
the first 16 of 96 due to be sited
there are expected by the end of
the year if there is no agreement
in the Geneva arms talks.
The weapons are among 572
cruise and Pershing 2 missiles
NATO plans to deploy in Europe
over the next five years to counter
Soviet SS-20s aimed at targets in
Western Europe.
In Moscow, an editorial in the
Communist Party newspaper Prav
da said Reagan's latest missile
reduction offer is aimed at
"drowning hopes" for an agree
ment. It said the U.S. offer is unai
ceptable because it does not take
———
into account British and French
nuclear missiles and would allow
deployment of U.S. medium
range missiles, making allied
strength in medium-range
missiles twice the Soviets'.
Two hit by
sniper fire
ST. GEORGE'S — Snipers
wounded two U.S. paratroopers
Thursday, pushing the toll of
wounded to 115 since American
forces invaded Grenada more
than three weeks ago. Eighteen
other U.S. troopers have been
killed.
The snipers fired small caliber
weapons at soldiers manning an
observation post on Green Island,
just off Grenada's northeast coast,
Maj. Douglas Frey said.
The Army spokesman said the
soldiers, members of the 82nd Air
borne Division, were wounded
"very slightly," one in an arm and
other in a leg, and neither re
quired hospitalization.
Frey did not identify the U.S.
soldiers and said their assailants
were not found on Green Island, a
clump of rocks and swamps
belonging to Grenada.
U.S. combat forces have been
here since invading Oct. 25 with
the declared mission of rescuing
hundreds of Americans following
a bloody coup on the Marxist
ruled island.
The invasion toppled a short
lived, radical army junta, which
seized power Oct. 19 after slaying
Prime Minister Maurice Bishop
and an undetermined number of
his followers.
Deficit bill
abandoned
WASHINGTON — Congress
abandoned all hope Thursday of
major action this year to reverse
the tide of budgetary red ink, as
House and Senate negotiators
agreed to increase the govern
ment's line of credit by $101
billion to $1.49 trillion.
Final action by the House and
Senate on the compromise na
tional debt limit bill was the last
big obstacle to congressional ad
journment for the year on Friday.
Senate leaders said they might ask
the full Senate to ratify the com
promise Thursday night while the
House was not expected to act un
til Friday.
The end of the 1983 battle to
reduce federal budget deficits was
signaled Wednesday night when
the Senate refused, 65-33, to con
sider an $88 billion deficit
reducing package of tax increases
and spending cuts proposed by
Sens. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., and
Lawton Chiles, D-Fla.
Another chance for deficit
reduction action was closed off
Thursday evening when the
House voted 214-204 to reject
ground rules for consideration of
several proposed anti-deficit
plans. One plan, approved by the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee, would have raised about $8
billion in taxes over three years,
chiefly from high-income in
vestors and the life insurance
industry.
"As we leave Washington, word
of our impotence will precede us.
...We have confessed to an
already doubting nation that we
are ruled by political fear, rather
than economic courage," said
Rep. Dan Rostenkowski, D-lll.,
chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee.
Who needs
computers?
SALEM — Although high
technology is often viewed as be
ing the wave of the future,
Oregon will need more sales
representatives and janitors than
people to make computer chips in
the years ahead, according to a
new state survey.
"People shouldn't be caught up
in the hype about high tech," said
Ed Bissell of the state Employment
Division. "People shouldn't think
that because they're not involved
in electronics that they're out of
the mainstream of the economy."
Bissell, head of the agency's oc
cupational information unit, said
the survey of future employment
opportunities in Oregon shows
that high tech will generate
relatively few new jobs between
now and 1990.
The survey, which is based on
interviews with business officials
around the state, indicates that
sales will be the occupation with
the largest number of net open
ings through the end of the
decade.
"These are people who sell the
big-ticket items such as
refrigerators, furniture and cars.
They're people who need a
knowledge of what they sell," he
said. "We anticipate approximate
ly 3,500 openings per year through
1990."
The net number of openings
will come through economic
growth or replacement of people
who leave the work force, Bissell
said.
