'Will we stop
communism?'
WASHINGTON — Pres.
Ronald Reagan, arguing the
United States is fighting a "com
munist reign of terror” in Cen
tral America, declared Wednes
day night that Salvadoran guer
rillas with Cuban support are
poised to topple the shaky El
Salvador government unless the
United States provides more
military aid.
"The simple questions are:
Will we support freedom in this
hemisphere or not?...Will we
stop the spread of communism
in this hemisphere or not? Will
we act while there is still time?”
Reagan asked in remarks
prepared for a nationally broad
cast address to the nation from
the Oval Office.
In a speech devoted to con
vincing Americans he is pursu
ing the right course in Central
America and to pressuring Con
gress into supplying more
military aid to that region of tur
moil, the president decried the
"new isolationists" who prefer a
policy of "wishful thinking” to
action.
"As I talk to you tonight, there
are young Salvadoran soldiers
in the field facing the terrorists
and guerrillas in El Salvador
with the clips in their rifles the
only ammunition they have,"
Reagan said.
Though Reagan described the
situation as dire, he reiterated
his previous pledge to keep
American troops out of a Cen
tral American war. While the
issues involve promoting
democracy and economic well
being in the face of Cuban and
Nicaraguan aggression, Reagan
said, "It is definitely not about
plans to send American troops
into combat in Central
America."
The president contended that
without his aid package, El
Salvador could be powerless to
resist a Cuban-backed
offensive.
Wilderness
bill cleared
WASHINGTON — An agree
ment by Rep. Jim Weaver, D
Ore., and Sen. Mark Hatfield, R
Ore., has cleared the way
toward passage of an
860,000-acre Oregon wilderness
bill.
"We have an Oregon
wilderness bill," Weaver said by
telephone from Washington,
D.C. "Senator Hatfield and I
I
shook hands and said we have a
bill."
Tom Imeson, wilderness
legislative aide to Hatfield, said
two modifications on final
boundaries made to Hatfield's
bill that won approval from the
Senate Energy and Natural
Resources Committee last
week, allowing the measure to
go before the full Senate next
week.
The measure will then go to
the floor of the House without
further conferences, Imeson
said. He predicted that both
houses of Congress will pass the
bill into law before the end of
May.
Imeson said Hatfield agreed
to add another 10,000 acres to
the proposed 7,700-acre Grassy
Knob Wilderness on the
Southern Oregon Coast to in
clude the Dry Creek drainage of
the Sixes River.
Also, Hatfield replaced an
18,300-acre Glacier Mountain
Wilderness proposal with near
by Monument Rock Wilderness,
an area of approximately the
same size, in Eastern Oregon.
Both were contained in Hat
field's initial draft of a
wilderness bill as the "Glacier
Monument Wilderness" but on
ly Glacier Mountain remained in
the draft submitted to the
Senate committee last week. Im
eson said Monument Rock was
restored to the bill with deletion
of some mining claims in one
corner of the wilderness, and
Glacier Mountain was
eliminated from the measure.
Two wounded
in shooting
QUEBEC — A shotgun
wielding man suspected of
wounding two passers-by held
off police at his home Wednes
day, one day after another gun
man went on a deadly shooting
spree nearby in the Quebec
legislature.
A relative said Wednesday's
gunman, identified as Jean
Claude Nadeau, 39, had been
unable to sleep overnight
because he was troubled by
Tuesday's rampage, in which
three people were killed and 13
others wounded by a man firing
a submachine gun inside
Quebec province's National
Assembly, police reported.
No other connection could
immediately be established bet
ween the two incidents,
however.
The man held in Tuesday’s
killings, identified as a Canadian
soldier, CpI. Denis Lortie, 22,
was scheduled for arraignment
later Wednesday on three
counts of first-degree murder.

Wednesday's incident began
when a male pedestrian in
Quebec City's Saint-Roch
district was shot and wounded
in the arm, leg and hip, and a
woman motorist was wounded
in the throat when gunfire shat
tered a window of her
automobile, police said.Both
were treated at a hospital and
released.
The suspected gunman was
tracked down to his family's
house. Police said the gunman
had ejected his mother and two
brothers from the house, and
they notified police. His 77-year
old father later also left the
building, after police encircled
it with sandbag barricades.
Police Det. Brian Bickford said
the gunman carried a "20-gauge
gun, and from what we know he
might have four or five other
guns."
Bulgaria to
boycott L.A.
Bulgaria on Wednesday
became the first Eastern bloc
country to follow the Soviet
Union's example in pulling out
of the 1984 Olympics in Los
Angeles, as Americans used
shuttle diplomacy in a
worldwide game of wits to keep
other nations in the Games.
A statement by the official
Bulgarian news agency BTA said
the national Olympic Commit
tee voted “unanimously against
the participation of Bulgaria in
the Games because of the ex
istence of an abnormal situation
in this American city." Bulgaria
is the closest Soviet ally in the
Eastern bloc.
A delegation selected by the
Los Angeles Olympic Organiz
ing Committee was in East Ger
many trying to convince officials
that their athletes would be
secure in Los Angeles.
Other Olympic officials were
meeting in California with
representatives of “three or
four" countries friendly to the
Soviets, the president of the
organizing committee said
Wednesday.
But most Eastern bloc coun
tries and Cuba were silent on
whether they planned to join
the Soviet Union, which an
nounced Tuesday it was
withdrawing from the Games
because of "anti-Soviet
hysteria" and concerns for the
safety of athletes.
Pres. Ronald Reagan said in
Washington Wednesday he was
greatly disappointed by the
Soviet decision and called it
"unfair to the young people that
have been waiting for so long to
participate in those games."
