Dotson out
on bond
Associated Press
CHICAGO — Gary Dotson,
who has spent six years in prison
for a rape his accuser now says
never happened, was headed to
ward freedom Wednesday, after
his mother posted bond to bring
him home.
Barbara Dotson turned over
the $10,000 cashier’s check to a
Cook County clerk and prepared
to fly to the Dixon Correctional
Center in northern Illinois to pick
up her son.
Mrs. Dotson said she had ar
ranged a $10,000 bank loan to
meet the cash requirements for
the $100,000 bond set Tuesday
by the Illinois Supreme Court,
which ruled Dotson could be re
leased on bond during appeal.
“I’m happy,” Dotson told the
Chicago Sun-Times by telephone
from Dixon. “At least I can settle
this outside.”
Reagan stresses
freedom in Europe
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President
Reagan and his aides, struggling to
keep a few minutes at a West Ger
man cemetery from dominating the
president’s 10-day European jour
ney, are trying to focus public atten
tion on Reagan’s desire to recommis
sion the crusade for democracy he
launched in London three years ago.
Three weeks of bitter controversy
have followed the president’s deci
sion to visit the Bitburg military cem
etery.
The White House is trying to deal
with ,the gathering storm “by not
talkirfg about it and trying to keep it
from .Being the central theme” of
Reagah’s four-nation jtmrney, one
White House administrator said.
Reagan himself has given a series

Instead, Reagan has sought to em-

in Western Europe since World War
II and his desire to promote free

viet satellite states of Eastern Eu
rope.
Another
administration official,
who like the first agreed to brief re
porters on plans for the trip if he
were not identified, said the visit to
Bitburg, ironically, was arranged as

“The president wants to stress his
commitment to what he calls the
most compelling idea in the world
today, which is human freedom and,
within that, the concept of peace,
reconciliation and prosperity,” the
White House official said. “The Fed
eral Republic (of Germany) is an
ideal setting for that.”
