Hispanics criticize
Reagan’s policies
United Press Internationul
WASHINGTON — Presi
dent Reagan’s “hypocritical”
attempts to woo Hispanic voters
will backfire because of their
dissatisfaction with his domestic
and Central American policies,
Democratic Hispanic leaders
predicted Thursday.
“They will not be fooled by
his constant claims recently,
particularly in this past week, of
how important Hispanics are in
society when he has the worst
anti-Hispanic record of any
modern day president,” said
New Mexico Gov. Toney
Anaya.
Anaya, the nation’s top
elected Hispanic official, pre
dicted during a Democratic
press conference held in con
junction with National Hispanic
Heritage Week that Hispanics
will join blacks, women, labor
and environmentalists in a
“coalition of conscience” to de
feat Reagan.
“These are the hands that will
not pick Ronald Reagan,” he
said.
Anaya, members of the Con
gressional Hispanic Caucus and
Democratic National Commit
tee officials — including DNC
Chairman Chuck Manatt —
joined in accusing Reagan of
distorting the facts in his
attempts to win 5.9 million His
panic votes.
“I have never heard such a
hypocritical thing in my life,”
said Rep. Robert Garcia, DN.Y.
and chairman of the Hispanic
caucus. “1 don’t know who’s
advising him. All you have to do
is look at the U.S. Census fi
gures.”
T think the president should
call his efforts Hispanic Wooing
Week, said Rep. Bill Richard
son, D-N.M. “I think what will
happen is that is purely politic
al, ceremonial efforts will back
fire. ”
Richardson and others cited
figures they said negates
Reagan’s claims of advance
ments for Hispanics during his
adminitration, including:
• Hispanic unemployment is
13 percent, 2 percent above the
national average;
•The number of Hispanics
living below the poverty level is
30 percent, twice the national
average;
• 10,(XX) Hispanic businesses
have gone under since Reagan
has been in office;
•Reagan lias proposed cut
ting bilingual education from
$161 million to $95 million;
•And 29 percent of the His
panic community lives in sub
standard housing.
Garcia and Rep. Estaban Tor
res, D-Calif., also said Hispa
nics fear Reagan’s Central
American policies will mean
their children will he the first
sent to fight there.
“We re going to end up in a
blood war fighting people with
the same last names,” said Gar
cia. “Central America does not
belong to the United States,
Central America belongs to
Central America. ’
Anaya said the Hispanic
Force ’84 he c hairs hopes to re
gister 1 million Hispanics by
Election Day 1984, most of
them in California, Texas, New
York and Florida — which con
tain over 49 percent of the elec
toral votes.
Colorado state Sen. Polly
Baca Barragan said Mexican-
Americans, Puerto Ricans,
Cubans and other groups of
Spanish descent have been suc
cessful in forming an Hispanic
coalition and “the Hispanics of
this country are not going to
forget the kinds of repressive
action bv this administration.”
Troops from Texas work
(luring NATO wargames
United Press International
EINDHOVEN, ' Netherlands
— Troops from Texas braced for
the first exercise of the annual
NATO maneuvers, but the war
games conducted during the next
three weeks will be hard work
rather than play.
Reforger — the first phase of
the exercise — began with the lift
of reinforcements last week and
will end with practice evacuation
of casualties the first week in
October.
Reforger, short for return of
forces to Germany, is a joint exer
cise by the Army and the Air
Force whose Military Airlift Com
mand is responsible for ferrying
the troops during the war games.
The plan was for the American
cavalry to mass in the Netherlands
as they would in wartime, and
cross the Maas and Rhine rivers to
do mock battle in north Germany,
screening the vital Ruhr industrial
area.
“We never stop,” said Air
.Force Sgt. R.F. Langston, 24, of
Clarksville during a break from
feeding the 200 troopers crammed
into the C141 transport for the 17-
hour flight from Fort Hood.
T try to take a 30-day leave
somewhere in there, so I do all
right, he said.
Langston’s schedule during the
Reforger calls for a transatlantic
flight, 24 hours rest, another trip
across the Atlantic, and so on
throughout the airlift.
American soldiers arriving at
the Port of Rotterdam Wednesday
were met by 50 Dutch protestors
distraught over the arrival this fall
of Pershing Two and Cruise mis
siles. The missiles will be sta
tioned in West Germany, Italy,
the Netherlands, Great Britain
and Belgium.
The protesters lay across rail-
raod tracks carrying military trains
Tuesday when a shipload of heavy
equipment from Beaumont ar
rived. Twenty people were
arrested without violence.
The Fort Hood and Fort Bliss
contingents, supplemented by a
battalion of the Mississippi Na
tional Guard and a Dutch army
brigade, are part of a 70,000-
inember multinational force play
ing war games between the Baltic
Sea to Turkey.

Murder called
crime of greed
United Press International
LOS ANGELES — The eldest
son of slain Texas millionaire Hen
ry Harrison Kyle tearfully admit-
Ra ted at his father’s funeral that he
iliot him in the back in what one
detective called a “crime of
greed, court documents show.
Rick Kyle, 20, told his half-
sister and her fiance he shot his
Father to death at point-blank

Kyle earlier told police that his

investing in real estate, coal
mines, oil-drilling equipment and
banks, and who recently became
president of the Four Star Inter
national movie and TV production
—was shot by an intrud-

It was not clear whether Rick
Kyle knew of the penciled-out de
letion at the time of the shooting,
but detectives believe the killing
was related to Kyles frequent
threats to write his children out of
his will if they misbehaved.
“Absolutely, it was a crime of
greed,” said Detective Bob
Grogan.
The younger Kyle told his half-
sister, Jackie Lynn Phillips, and
her fiance, Henry Miller III, im
mediately after the funeral that
there was something he wanted to
tell them, the grand jury trans
cripts show.
"Ricky said that, T have to tell
both of you: 1 shot him,”’ Miller
testified. “He just said that — he
just confessed that he shot him.
Miller said Kyle claimed he
awakened his sleeping 60-year-old
father early the morning of July 22
and told him there was a prowler
in the house, and said they looked
around the residence together.
The two witnesses said Kyle
also told them that he had thrown
his gun, a .32-caliber Rohm revol
ver, into the bushes outside the
mansion, and asked them to re
trieve the gun. They said they re
fused.
Prosecutor Lewis Watnick said
Kyle was implicated not only by
his statements but also by the
murder weapon, which police had
already recovered, and by tests
taken at the murder scene.
He said powder burns on the
victim’s body showed he was shot
from a distance of only “one inch
to five inches.
