Officials^ ho£e Reagan approves
Air Force alters missile proiec
c
United Press International
OMAHA — Some Air Force
officials are hoping President
Reagan will announce a decision
today on a scaled-down proposal
concerning the MX intercontinen
tal ballistic missile. The Omaha
World-Herald reported.
The newspaper said Tuesday
the Air Force has sharply revised
its proposal for deploying MX mis
siles and decreased the program’s
cost by $10 billion.
The Air Force has told Defense
Secretary Caspar Weinberger a
reduced deployment of 100
mobile MX missiles to be shuttled
among 1,000 shelters would be
acceptable, the newspaper said,
temporarily abandoning its three-
year fight for 200 missiles and
4,600 shelters.
Although there was no indica
tion of White House reaction to
the plan, sources told The World-
Herald it could be politically
acceptable to Reagan.
The smaller MX deployment
would cost about $23 billion com
pared with $33 billion outlined in
the original concept and probably
would meet with less resistance
from the public. The World-
Herald said.
The entire program would be
centered in Lincoln and Clark
counties in southeastern Nevada
and not far from Las Vegas where
the business community generally
has supported the plan to base the

missiles in desert valleys, the
newspaper said.
All missile shelter and support
facilities would be on land now
owned by the government.
Some Air Force leaders are
hoping Reagan will use today’s
ceremony at the Pentagon to dedi
cate the new MacArthur Corridor
— named after the late general —
to announce decisions on the MX
and possibly on a new bomber for
the Strategic Air Command.
A source told The World Herald
the Air Force views the revised
proposal as “something on which
we could build if it appears as if
the Soviet threat is not dimin
ishing.’’
The source said future activity
could involve “perhaps an anti-
ballistic missile system. Perhaps
more missiles and more shelters.
Perhaps a combination of the
two,” the source said.
“At the same time, we would
engage in research and develop
ment on an air-mobile MX and
deep underground basing. We
would not just he producing 100
missiles and building 1,000 shel
ters,” the source said. “We would
be continuing our research and
development as a hedge against
the future.”
The source said approval of the
plan would “send a message to our
allies and to the other side that,
after study and delay through
three administrations, we are
showing determination; that we
are serious.”
“This would not be a closed de
cision, it would be an interim solu
tion. ”
The new plan calls for locating
missile facilities in an area of 3,500
square miles as opposed to more
than 5,000 square miles proposed
for the larger development.
An aggregate of 13 square miles
would be closed to the public.
That would include 21 acres for
each shelter, one large main oper
ating base to be built in the Coyote
Spring area, about 60 miles east of
Las Vegas, and a sizable support
base.
The original concepts which the
shelters would be connected by
unpaved roads, and missiles
would be moved from shelter to
Vi
shelter at random, remain
changed.
Instead of being spotted a
apart, shelters would be all.

SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador
— A Salvadoran judge recom
mended a request for the United
States to extradite a wealthy Salva
doran, accused in the murder of
two American land reform ex
perts, be dropped for lack of evi
dence, court officials say.
It is the second time in a month
a Salvadoran judge has recom
mended charges be dropped
against suspects in the murder last
January of Mark David Pearlman,
36, of Seattle, Wash., and Michael
Hammer, of Potomac, Md.
Court officials Tuesday said
Judge Felix Antonio Orellana re
commended an extradition re
quest against Hans Christ, a weal
thy Salvadoran in custody in
Miami, be revoked for lack of evi
dence.
Christ and his brother-in-law
Ricardo Sol Meza were accused of
shooting to death Pearlman, Ham
mer and the head of El Salvador’s
Agrarian Reform Institute, Rodol
fo Viera, on Jan. 3 in a hotel coffee
shop in San Salvador.
A hotel waitress initially told
police she saw Christ and Sol
Meza leaning over the bodies of
the Americans, who were working
on San Salvador’s land reform
program under the aegis of the
AFL-CIO’s Institute of Free
Labor Development.
Last month, a judge recom
mended charges be dropped
against Sol Meza because the wai
tress, Teresa de Jesus Torres-
Lopez, changed her version of the
shootings. Torres-Lopez, the
state’s sole witness, is now living
in the United States for fear of her
safety.
El Salvador’s Supreme Court,
which must rule on the recom
mendation submitted Monday by
Orellana, said it would act “in a
short period of time” on the extra
dition request against Christ.
Christ has been held in ill >ecte
jail since April pending th
