MIAMI (AP) — Cuban leader Fi
del Castro has announced that a
third nuclear reactor is planned for
his country, according to a Havana
Radio broadcast monitored Monday
in Miami.
Cuba has two 400-megawatt reac
tors under construction at Cienfue-
? ;os in southwestern Cuba, 150 miles
rom Florida. Castro said many of
the technicians from that project will
stay to build the third reactor in
northern Oriente Province on the is
land’s eastern end.

High court to rule
on trademark use
in ‘Gay Olympics’
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Su
preme Court said Monday that it
would decide whether Olympic offi
cials may bar a homosexual rights
group from using “Gay Olympics” as
the name of an athletic competition
that it sponsors.
In a case from San Francisco, the
justices will study whether the
United States Olympic Committee
and the International Olympic Com
mittee have exclusive trademark
control over the term Olympic.
In other action, the high court:
• Rejected a challenge to the Rea
gan administration’s action in Jan
uary 1984, with the support of Con
gress, to establish full diplomatic
relations with the Vatican.
• Agreed to decide whether the
free speech rights of a public clerk-
typist in Houston were violated
when she was fired for saying she
hoped someone assassinates Presi
dent Reagan.
• Refused to revive a Paducah,
Ky., ordinance declaring any busi
ness a public nuisance if it engages
primarily in selling or showing ob-
cene material.
• Agreed to decide in an Okla
homa case whether railroads may be
forced to pay proportionally higher
state property taxes than other busi
nesses.
• Refused to shield the daughter
of former Philippines President Fer
dinand Marcos from imprisonment
for refusing to cooperate in a federal
investigation of alleged bribery of
Philippine officials by U.S. arms
dealers.
• Agreed to examine the public’s
right of access to private beachfront
property in California.
The Olympics case concerns a ho
mosexual rights group called San
Francisco Arts and Athletics which
organized the first “Gay Olympics”
in 1982, prompting Olympic offi
cials to file a lawsuit.

NATO leaders say missile deal
puts Europe at mercy of Soviets
Buddy(

f scale m<
GLENEAGLES, Scotland (AP) —
NATO defense ministers gathered
Monday at this golf resort to con
front the Americans about a near
deal at the Reykjavik summit that
raised concern that Europe would be
left at the mercy of superior Soviet
conventional forces.
President Reagan and Soviet
leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev almost
reached agreement to remove me
dium-range missiles from Europe, a
prospect that caused complaints
from some NATO generals and
more discreet grumbles from poli
ticians worried about Western Euro
pean security.
U.S. Defense Secretary Caspar
Weinberger arrived by helicopter on
the eve of the two-day meeting that
will debate the strategic future of
NATO following the summit at
which both sides offered huge nu
clear arms cuts.
The basic fear is that withdrawal
of U.S. cruise and Pershing 2 mis
siles would leave Western Europe in
an inferior position to the Commu
nist Warsaw Pact’s larger conventio
nal forces.
At the meeting of the 16-nation
NATO alliance starting today, the
European defense ministers were to
raise the issue with Weinberger.
Chancellor Helmut Kohl of West
Germany, perhaps the most worried
of the Europeans, was in the United
States and was expected to spell out
his concerns to President Reagan.
In an article published Monday in
the Bild, Kohl’s top security adviser,
Horst Teltschik, said, “The abolition
of all nuclear weapons is a fantastic
goal.
“But it could make war in Europe
more likely again as the considerable
superiority of the Soviet Union in
the conventional field persists,”
Teltschik wrote. “Disarmament must
not be allowed to burden the part
ners in the Western alliance, but
rather it must strengthen their secu
rity.”
In NATO headquarters in Brus
sels, the alliance’s deputy supreme
commander, Gen. Hans-Joachim
Mack, complained last week that
Washington did not seem to have
considered the strategic implications
of the deal.
There also is concern that if the
cruises and Pershings went, Western
Europe would face attack from
short-range nuclear weapons in
which, according to Western esti
mates, the Warsaw Pact has a 9-1 su-
Britain’s Prime Minister Margaret
Thatcher, is cutting back.
penonty.
On conventional forces, the War
saw pact has a 2.1-1 superiority over
NATO in tanks, according to West
ern esimates. NATO has 2.29 mil
lion troops in Europe, the United
States estimates, while the Warsaw
Pact has 2.82 million. Without the
nuclear deterrent, West Europeans
would also be forced to spend more
on conventional defense at a time

NEW YORK (AP) — The stock
market contracted another case
of the Monday blues, declining
broadly in selling attributed to
rising interest rates and activity
by professional program traders.
The Dow Jones average of 30
industrials, which was up 43.87
points last week, fell 26.02 to
1,811.02.
Volume on the New York
Stock Exchange was a sluggish
109.01 million shares, down from
124.11 million Friday.
Interest rates rose in the credit
markets, pushing prices of long
term government bonds down
about f 5 for every $ 1,000 in face
value.
Analysts said upward pressure
on interest rates helped prompt
weakness in stock-index
and that led professionals^
to buy the futures and stlsi
