National
Reagan attends summit
to discuss Third World
United Press International
WASHINGTON — President
Reagan headed to the 22-nation
Cancun summit Wednesday with
a parting admonition that the
problems of the Third World can
not be solved overnight, and their
solution lies in a freer market
place.
Reagan, with Secretary of State
Alexander Haig, Treasury Secret
ary Donald Regan and Vice Presi
dent George Bush at his side, read
a prepared statement on the South
Lawn of the White House as a
Marine helicopter waited to take
him to Andrews Air Force Base for
the flight to Mexico’s Yucatan
Peninsula.
Reagan will be among 17 heads
of state attending the conference,
which he called “a unique under
taking in world affairs.” An aide
said the president would attempt
to see the heads of all 21 other
delegations.
“Our message in Cancun will be
clear,” he said. “The road to pros
perity and human fulfillment is
lighted by economic freedom and
individual incentive.”
He said establishment of a
strong domestic and world eco
nomy is a top priority of his admi
nistration and vital to peace and
stability.
“But we go to Cancun with no
illusions,” he said. “The problems
of hunger and poverty are severe
and deeply rooted. They cannot
be solved overnight.”
The president, in an indirect
swipe at suggestions by France’s
Socialist government that the de
veloped nations must share their
wealth with the Third World, said
massive transfers of wealth will
not produce new well-being.
Reagan said he was not expect
ing a hostile reception at Cancun
as he had earlier indicated.
The United States, he said, will
renew its commitment to be a
partner in efforts to achieve more
effective cooperation to help de
veloping countries achieve grea
ter self-sustaining growth.
“With cooperation and good
will, this summit can be more than
just another shattered dream,”
Reagan said. “It can be the begin
ning of new hope and a better life
for all.”
The 22 nations meeting in Can
cun represent two-thirds of the
world’s population and control
three-fourths of the world’s
wealth.
French President Francois Mit
terrand and other world leaders
contend the rich countries must
be prepared to share their pros
perity through a massive transfer
of wealth to developing nations.
Many of the leaders attending
the North-South summit believe
Reagan’s economic “bootstrap
views regarding poor countries
are unrealistic and out of tune with
the times.

marketplace.”
While in Cancun, Reagan plilj

ings will be informal open-i
sessions, a White House spokes-l
man said, and will all be held it]
the Sheraton Hotel.
“We know there are differ
ences, but we’re going with a
share of optimism,” said Treasury
Secretary Donald Regan. “He
(Reagan) recognizes there are dif
ferent economic economic philo
sophies.
“But he’s going to suggest no

and Venezuelan President Luis

The action, announced by the
department Tuesday, means the
loss of jobs for 68 full-time em
ployees and 84 part-time em
ployees, although most of these
people have found new jobs, an
FCIC spokesman said.
Turning sales over to private
enterprise will improve service
and make it more convenient for
farmers, the FCIC said. Officials
said private agents’ offices often
will be closer to farmers than one
of the 148 offices or county offices
of the department.
Wayne Fletcher, head of
FCIC, said farmers can select
their own agents to handle their
federal crop insurance. If they do
not, the FCIC will assign insur
ance files to local crop insurance
agents, though farmers will be
able to change agents.
The administration is in the
process of expanding the federal
crop insurance program to cover
all risks for all major crops.
