Turner, who headed the agency under former President Carter, tes tified before a House Foreign Af fairs subcommittee which also heard Ray Cline, a former deputy director of the CIA who firmly supports Rea gan’s policy. “If the United States turns its back on this group (the Contras) there will be moves to accommodate with communist regimes throughout the world and in Nicaragua,” Cline said. Meanwhile, Reagan, speaking to a group of religious leaders at the White House, kept up his criticism of the leftist Nicaraguan govern ment, again accusing n of religious persecution. The president said he had also received a message from the pope “urging us to continue our efforts in Central America.” Republican and Democratic sources in the House predicted that the Contra aid plan would lose by 30 votes, despite an intensified lobbying campaign by Reagan and his allies. A close vote in the Republican-led Sen ate was predicted. Under the proposal, to he voted on next week, the $14 million would go as humanitarian assistance to the Contras seeking overthrow of the Sandinista government in Managua. But if negotiations between the Sandinistas and the Contras failed, the money would then be spent for weapons for the rightist rebels sup ported by the president. Reagan met for an hour on Tues day with House Minority Leader Robert Michel, R-Ill., and Assistant Senate Majority Leader Alan Simp son, R-Wvo. Afterwards, Michel said he wot explore alternatives to ~ posal to get something to from failing. "I reminded the presidentthai my judgment (House Spcal Thomas P.)

Armstrc to U.S. Dn tration off case last \ the conver son asked Bandidos Reagan changes tour plara|Pil( will visit concentration camp Associated Press WASHINGTON — President Reagan personally accepted blame today for the storm of criticism over his upcoming West German trip and said he would work in a visit to a con centration camp site. Reagan told a group of religious leaders that it was his “mistaken im pression that such a visit was outside the official agenda” of the trip next month. Now, Reagan said, he has ac cepted an invitation from Chan cellor Helmut Kohl to visit such a site and his staff is planning to work it into his schedule. Reagan’s remarks were greeted with applause from the group of about 200 religious leaders. “For years I’ve said it, and I will say it again today, and I will say it again on that occasion: We must never forget the Holocaust nor should we ever permit such an atroc ity to happen ever again,” Reagan said. “Never again.” On Monday, the White House dis patched a top-level team, headed by presidential adviser Michael K. Deaver, to search out an appropriate site after a blast of controversy greeted Reagan’s decision to lay a wreath at a military cemetery in Bit- burg, where Nazi soldiers are bur ied. Reagan said he still intended to go to Bit burg because Kohl had im him (o do so. Reagan said he hoped that visit would show that the Ui States and West Germany turned their backs on theatre® of war and were able “to cement 40 years of friendship” betweent two peoples. “That’s why I accepted theimi tion to Bitburg and that’s whyl going to Bitburg,” Reagan said I'niti “As for the decision not to go Dachau, one of sites of the git moral obscenities of that era, it» taken because of my mistaken pression that such a visit wasoul the of fil ial agenda.” 5th artificial heart patient better Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Doctors said Tuesday they were “very much relieved” that surgery had stopped internal bleeding in artificial heart patient Jack C. Burcham, and they resumed giving him blood thinners in hope of averting possible strokes often caused by blood clots.
