Cf) u/jr|ft' Shevardnadze, arriving at An- >' dre vs Air Force Base on the eve of or metwo-day meeting with Shultz, called the expulsion illegal and a bad F Hision. Hn New York, the chief Soviet If delegate, Alexander Belono gov, said the Soviets already had cut their mission to 208, which is 10 be low the demanded level. But Bernard Kalb, the State De partment spokesman, said Soviets holding visas were over the level of 218. He declined to give a precise count, and he accused the Soviets of disobeying the order, issued initially last March, by not providing the names of any departing diplomats. The U.S. spokesman, responding to Gorbachev’s statement on Dani loff, said the reporter was the victim of “contrived charges, a frame-up, and there is no retreat from that.” An official said Shultz wanted to make sure that Shevardnadze had a “full appreciation of our position” and that “we have to take very se riously any Soviet response.” But, the official added, “I would expect that we would go through the two-day schedule,” which includes a dinner Shultz plans to hold for She vardnadze Friday night. Daniloff, the 51-year-old re- porter, was arrested Aug. 80 by KGB agents after a package con taining maps marked “secret” were thrust on him. He was held in prison for two weeks and released to the custody of U.S. Ambassador Arthur A. Hartman last Friday. In a message to Gorbachev, Rea gan had appealed that Daniloff should be allowed to come home to the United States. The Soviet leader did not heed the request. In what could be a signal that he was prepared to compromise, Gor bachev also said “we will not become nervous and will not be provoked.” Similarly, on his arrival here, She vardnadze said he believed the case could be resolved. The Soviet for eign minister did not elaborate. He said, meanwhile, that prepara tions for a summit meeting between Reagan and Gorbachev were 50 per cent complete. The two leaders agreed last No vember at their first meeting in Ge neva to hold back-to-back summits in Washington this year and in Mos cow in 1987. But Gorbachev has held off set ting a date to come here until there are assurances of productive results in curbing the nuclear arms compe tition. The Daniloff case — and its bitter aftermath — have contributed to the uncertainty, according to U.S. offi cials. In New York, Belonogov con demned the U.S. decision to expel 25 members of his diplomatic staff. He said the U.S. order was aimed at torpedoing a U.S.-Soviet summit. ru 10 15 86 alternative to piiz s-frled cheese, aiefl mushrooms,ana 315 University^ (at Norths# CIAL Miners union mokes safety priority issue 249.

The talks have been londucted intermittently for four fionths but have focused so far In wages. The fire broke out Tuesday in <1 shaft one mile underground at tpe Kinross Gold Mine 60 miles southeast of Johannesburg. General Mining Corp., owner ol Kinross, said one miner still was missing but four others be lieved missing had surfaced. GAO: Despite audits, defense contractors overcharge Pentagon WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense contractors are still overcharging the Pentagon by millions of dollars a year despite stepped-up auditing, the General Accounting Office and Pentagon auditors agreed Thurs day. In a review of 19 contracts awarded between 1982 and 1986, “we found problems in all 19 con tractors,” said a report by the Gen eral Accounting Office, the congres sional investigative agency. The GAO report was buttressed by William Reed, director of the De fense Contract Audit Agency, which reviews many of the contracts awarded to be sure the government is being fairly treated. Reed and the GAO testifed before the House Government Operations national security subcommittee, a congressional panel investigating waste in the Defense Department. The hearing involved the 1962 Truth-in-Negotiations Act, which requires contractors to furnish rele- vent pricing data to government agencies in cases where non-compet itive contracts are awarded. Rep. Jack Brooks, D-Texas, chair man of the subcommittee, criticized what he said are widespread and costly violations of the 1962 law. “Since a large number of Penta gon contracts are awarded without competition,” Brooks said, “contract prices must be based on cost and price estimates. By giving the gov ernment the right to equal knowl edge of all facts affecting contract prices, Congress sought to ensure reasonable prices in negotiated con tracts.” Frank Conahan, head of GAO’s national security branch, told the subcommittee that the GAO review of the 19 contractors showed that prices may be overstated by as much as $14 million because contractors did not disclose pertinent pricing in formation to Pentagon contract re viewers. Reed said his audit group has in creased its review of contractors in response to congressional com plaints that contractors needed closer scrutiny. In fiscal 1985, the last full year, Reed said, the Pentagon issued about 100,000 contracts worth more than $ 100,000 each.
