The plan calls for spending cuts of $295 billion over a three-year period. •DEFICITS: The plan estimates deficits at $171.4 billion for 1986; $144.8 billion for 1987; and $104.3 billion for 1988. •SPENDING CUTS: The plan calls for reductions of $56 billion in 1986; $99.9 billion in 1987 and $139.3 billion in 1988. •TAX INCREASES: None. •EDUCATION: Guaranteed student loans would be restricted to students from families with incomes of $60,000 or below. Pell grants and other student aid programs would be frozen at 1985 levels. •DEFENSE: Defense spending authority would be allowed to rise with inflation, an increase of roughly 4 percent. That translates into an increase of $21.1 billion in actual spending over the estimated levels for 1985, to a total of $273.1 billion. •SOCIAL SECURITY: Social Security cost-of-living benefits normally granted next Jan. 1 would be canceled. The regularly scheduled increases would resume in 1987. The one-year freeze would save $5.8 billion in 1986 and $21.9 billion over three years.

Members of one of the counterterrorist groups, acting without authorization from the CIA, hired others in Lebanon to detonate the car bomb outside a Beirut apartment building March 8, the newspaper said in a report quoting unidentified sources. The operation was canceled soon after the bombing when worried administration and CIA officials realized the indirect connection between the blast and their anti-terrorist training program, the newspaper said. Late last year, Reagan gave his support to the plan, which was pushed by Secretary of State George Shultz and national security affairs adviser Robert McFariane, the Post said.
