China lures junketeers
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Members
of Congress are using their Eas
ter recess to take off on trips
around the globe, with China
apparently the most popular
junket stop.
At least 30 members of Con
gress are visiting China this
week. Europe and South Amer
ica will have a few visitors.
Some members of Congress,
possibly concerned about their
constituents’ views of such
travels, prefer not to announce
such plans in advance, so their
junkets become known only
accidentally or through expense
reports.
Speaker Thomas O’Neill, D-
Mass., and 14 other House
members are in China this week
“to meet with a number of high-
level officials,” O’Neill’s office
said.
Several spouses and staff
members are also on the trip.
Rep. John Dingell, D-Mich.,
and chairman of the House
Energy and Commerce Com
mittee, is leading a 10-member
delegation to Japan, China and
Hong Kong to discuss trade,
energy development, interna
tional communications and
health issues, Dingell’s
announcement said.
Rep. Jerry Patterson, D-
Calif., and chairman of the
House Banking subcommittee,
travels to China with Reps. Este
ban Torres, D-Calif.; Stan Par
ris, R-Va.; and Ed Bethune, R-
Ark., to talk about international
finance.
Sen. Frank Murkowski, R-
Alaska, chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations subcommittee
on East Asian and Pacific affairs,
is traveling to Japan and China.
Reps. James Oberstar, D-
Minn., Bill Richardson, D-N.M.,
and Jim Jeffords, R-Vt., visited
El Salvador to review the na
tion’s agrarian reform program

WASHINGTON — Defense
scretary Caspar Weinberger
ys if the Soviets develop their
tvn space-age defenses, like
,ose President Reagan has
roposed, the dual technology
. ould end the threat of nuclear
erv
J Reagan last week called for a
search program to develop
n'r ji e k nses us i n g laser beams and
ther futuristic technology as a
against nuclear missiles in
uter space.
d the geWl “We think it can be done,”
lateronad /einberger said Sunday on
jBC’s “Meet the Press.” “It will
quire a substantial effort. But
le goal is enormously worth-
bile because you would simply
ee mankind from the fear of
tese nuclear missiles and that’s
ie president’s great hope and
ream.”
Critics of the president’s
roposal have said the nuclear
arms balance could be destabil
ized if one side develops a de
fense, because the other then
might strike first.
Such a fear would not exist if
both sides developed a complete
defense, Weinberger said,
adding, “I think it’s widely
known to the Soviets we would
never launch a first strike.”
“I know the Soviets are doing
a fair amount of work, and have
been for quite awhile, in this
whole area. And 1 would assume
that at some point it might he
possible for both countries to de
velop the kind of system that
could guarantee there would be
no longer any danger from nuc
lear missiles.”
But Dr. Wolfgang Panossky,
director of Stanford University’s
Accelerator Center, was skeptic
al. The problems of defense are
more complicated than the
administration has surmised, he
said on the Brinkley program.
