A World news House rejects Reagan’s plan to sell Saudi Arabia missiles WASHINGTON (AP) — The House followed the Senate on Wednesday and voted 356-62 to reject President Reagan’s plan to sell missiles to Saudi Arabia, a strong vote that suggested enough strength to override a presidential veto in the House. It would take 289 votes in the Democratic controlled House to override Reagan's promis ed veto of the “disapproval resolution.” The Senate voted 73-22 late Wednesday against the sale, six more votes than the 67 needed to over ride a veto. Kven though votes on veto override efforts frequently are closer than the original vote. House Minority I-eader Boh Michel, R-111.. had acknowledged before the vote that he was “not all that confident" Reagan could win a veto fight in the House. And the chief House opponent of the sale. Rep. Mel I«vine. IM’alif., said: “l think when it comas down to the override, wt3’ll have the votes to win. We’re pretty close to having enough vot«s locked up." However, both houses — not just one — would have to override Reagan's veto to block the sale, raising the likelihood that the final showdown on the issue will be fought in the Republican-controlled Senate where Reagan would have to sway only a handful of op ponents to win eventual approval for the sale. Never before has Congress rejected a weapons sale The closest previous fight was in 1981. when Congrats narrowly approved the sale of AWACS radar planes to the Saudis. Those planes am to be delivered next month. The deadline for congressional action is today, the last day of a 30-d.ay period that V began last month when the White House for mally notified Capitol Hill of the planned sale * COPIES* Krazy Kats Try Urn!
