A senior administration official said the manual appeared to be the work of "a low-level contract employee for the CIA operating in the region." The official, who asked not to be identified, des cribed the agent as "a free-wheeling, free-lancing type." He said U.S. intelligence officials believed the employee had previous experience in Vietnam and had drafted the manual based on methods of operation that were legal during that era but have been outlawed. "This was never approved and would never have been approved. It in no way conforms with policy or the president's personal feelings," the official told reporters in New York, where Reagan was attending a memorial dinner for former New York Governor Alfred Smith. The official said the manual had "incensed" the administration. It has also infuriated some congressmen who have cited it as further proof of the dangers of the Rpsan r Hm in tat rt inn's snnnsnnahin nf mrri11e frtU ing the leftist SandinLsta government in Nicaragua. Reagan ordered an independent investigation by the Intelli gence Oversight Board and a formal inquiry by the inspector general of the CIA, he added. The president would like the facts as soon as possible," he said, but gave no date for comple tion of the inquiries. Earlier in Washington, White House spo kesman Larry Speakes said the administration "has not advo cated or condoned political assassination or any ether attacks on civilians, nor will we." The CIA manual gives detailed advice on how to kill civilians and advocates assassination of Nicaraguan officials, political blackmail and encouragement of mob violence. Nigeria hastens OPEC CARACAS The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries has decided to advance the date of an emergency meeting on oil prices scheduled for Oct. 20 in Geneva and might hold it on Monday, the Venezuelan Energy and Mines Ministry said Thursday. The decision followed oil price cuts by Britain, Norway and Nigeria, the first member of OPEC to cut prices in the face of dropping demand and swollen supplies. A ministry spokesman said contacts between Venezuelan offi cials and the Nigerian National Oil Company had confirmed the Nigerian decision to cut prices by up to $2 a barrel. The Nigerian cut was the first price reduction by an OPEC member since a global oil glut forced the group to cut its base price to $29 from $34 in the first quarter of 1983. Nigeria reduced the price of its most popular grade, Bonny medium crude, by $1 a barrel and its other grades by between $1.9 and $2. Nigeria, which has been in desperate need of funds, has been ignoring OPEC-imposed production quotas and produc ing more oil than OPEC wants. : ong lions agreement approved HONG KONG Hong Kong's Legislative Council Thursday formally endorsed the Sino-British draft agreement on the colony's future. After three days of debate, a motion to endorse the pact was passed by the 48-member council the British colony's highest lawmaking body, with two abstentions from appointed non-government councillors, called "unofficials." One ofthe "unofficials," John Swaine, said on Monday he could not commend the agreement to the people of Hong Kong. He called it "the best of a bad deal" and said it was not an occasion for rejoicing. Under the agreement, signed in Peking last month, Britain agreed to hand over Hong Kong to China in 1997 and Peking promised to preserve the territory's social and economic sys tems for 50 years. During the debate, the non-government councillors urged the people of Hong Kong to face the future with optimism. Some expressed concern that the accord did not specify any future role Hong Kong residents would have in drafting future laws that would govern Hong Kong, which will be a special administrative region of China.
