Attorney General Smith
charged with contempt
WASHINGTON A Senate subcommittee Wednesday found
Attorney General William French Smith in criminal contempt
of Congress for having failed to release subpoened documents
concerning fraud charges against General Dynamics.
The subcommittee action is only the first step in what could
be a lengthy legal confrontation. It was spearheaded by a
Republican with strong tics to the Reagan administration,
which showed deep congressional frustration over the case.
The materials had been sought by the Senate Judiciary Sub
committee on Administrative Iractlce and Procedure and the
Joint Economic Subcommittee on International Trade. The
subpoened records relate to charges that General Dynamics
and its electric boat division falsified shipbuilding claims for
which the U.S. Navy paid more than $600 million.
The Justice Department began investigating the charges in
1978, closed the case in 1981 and reopened it last summer
when the two Senate subcommittees started their own probes.
OPEC cuts bring output in line'
WASHINGTON Energy Secretary Donald Hodel said Wed
nesday that the decision by the Organization of Petroleum
Exporting Countries to cut its production ceiling may have
only a limited impact on the United States because it merely
brings the output limits into line with world oil demand.
OPEC producers in Geneva Wednesday agreed to cut their
already depleted output to defend crumbling oil prices. The
output cuts are temporary, the OPEC countries said.
Hodel commented after OPEC made public its plan to trim
its output ceiling by 1.5 million barrels.
According to a department spokesperson, cutting the ceil
ings without reducing actual oil prices would alter the supply
demand pressures that have caused some oil producers to
lower their prices. The new ceiling holds OPEC output to a
maximum of 16 million barrels daily.
Hodel, who has previously said oil prices should be closer to
$25 a barrel than OPECs official $29 a barrel price, accused the
cartel of attempting to maintain artificially high prices.
Nicaragua shims treaty changes
MANAGUA, Nicargua Nicaragua has rejected changes in
the Contadora Peace Treaty, similar to those expressed by the
United States, which are now being proposed by U.S. allies in
Central America, a Foreign Ministry communique said Wednesday.
The government opposed the changes suggested by El Salva
dor, Honduras and Costa Rica because they constituted sub
stantial changes in the draft treaty presented by Contadora on
Sept. 7, the communique said.
Contadora, formed by Mexico, Venezuela, Panama and
Colombia, presented its revised peace treaty for Central Amer
ica last month after almost two years of intense work and few
visible signs of success. El Salvador, Honduras and Costa Rica
at first expressed willingness to sign the document. But later
they raised objections after the United States said it lacked
adequate mechanisms to verify some of its provisions. The
objections came after Nicaragua promptly accepted the draft,
stunning its opponents who had expected the leftist govern
ment to reject clauses on internal reforms.
The revised treaty would severely reduce U.S. military invol
vement in Central America and ban U.S. support for rightist
Nicaraguan rebels fighting to overthrow the Managua govern
ment. Nicaragua would be obliged to expel all Cuban advisers
and also be forbidden to help left-wing guerrillas fighting the
U.S.-backed government in El Salvador.
FBI investigates ship explosions
SAN FRANCISCO The FBI is investigating whether explo
sions that badly damaged the tanker Puerto Rican off the
California coast early Wednesday were caused by a bomb. The
agency is also probing a labor dispute between the vessel's
owners and a seaman's union, the International Organization
of Masters, Mates and Pilots, to see if it is linked to the blast, FBI
agent Robert Gast said. The union has been on strike against
the owners over a new wages and benefits contract
One crewman died and three were injured in the blast.
Babies to receive baboon hearts
LOMA LINDA, Calif. Surgeons made plans Wednesday to
place baboons hearts in four more sick babies while the first
recipient, 19-day-old "Baby Fae," happily gulped food from a
bottle. Baby Fae," who has lived longer than any other human
who received an animal heart, is doing well She no longer
needs breathing apparatus and her vital signs are normal, a
hospital official said Wednesday.
In a controversy over the transplant, doctors haw said other
methods could have been tried first and that no attempt was
made to obtain a human heart for the operation. But, "the
success so far of the operation surely indicates we should not
give up on the program," the chairman of the hospital's
department of pediatrics, Dr. John Mace, said.
An official said the hospital has set aside funds for four
simuar operations. A medical review of the procedure of using
Daooons hearts is expected to follow the operations.
