El Salvador’s military commander said the American, identified as Staff Sgt. Gregory A. Fronius, 27, of Greensburg, Pa., was killed by mortar fire near a command post. The military said 35 soldiers were wounded by leftist rebels who assaulted the base behind a bar rage of cannon, mortar and grenade fire. Base commander Col. Gilbert© Rubio, who was slightly wounded, said the number of attackers had not been determined. Officials said seven guerrillas died in the attack on the 4th Infantry Brigade garrison at El Par- aiso in Chalatenango province, a rebel strong hold, and some penetrated the camp. El Paraiso is nearly 40 miles north of San Salvador, capital of this Central American country. Gen. Adolfo Blandon, chief of the armed forces, said, “Because of the seriousness of the in juries, the number of dead (soldiers) may in crease.” He visited the base to assess the situation. Soldiers on the scene estimated government casualties at about 65 dead and more than 100 wounded. According to U.S. policy, American advisers do not participate in offensive military action or enter areas where combat is occurring or likely, but may visit “carefully selected and secure sites” such as garrisons. They are armed and may re spond if fired upon. The United States has a self-imposed ceiling of 55 on the number of advisers serving in El Salva dor at one time, but sometimes fewer are on duty. Tuesday’s rebel attack was the largest:; June 1986 guerrilla assault on thearmyl San Miguel, 86 miles east of San Salvador^ military said 50 soldiers were killed or woi there, but the rebels claimed a totalof250 U.S. Embassy spokesman Pen Agjiewsai(li| nius was training Salvadoran troopsatt also garrison. Blandon said the rebels began firingi grenade launchers and a 90mm cannonai2J aiming at the command post, barracks ancj cers’ mess. He said 250 soldiers wereatthtit Most of the dead and wounded were: barracks and “there may have been in because some of the bodies of the terrorisisi found inside the barracks,” Blandon said The command post, a barracks and ano mess were destroyed and other buildings: aged. Reporters saw at least three destroyecl tary vehicles. Japanese official says retaliation possible if U.S. imposes penalties TOKYO (AP) — Anti-American sentiment among Japanese citizens will grow if the United States goes ahead with penalty duties on up to $300 million worth of Japanese elec tronic goods, a senior government official said Tuesday. “The atmosphere in Japan against the Americans would become — not so good,” said Noburo Hatakeyama, director general of the International Trade Administration Bureau. “They would think the United States is emotional and illogical,” he said. Hatakeyama repeated warnings from other Japanese officials that Ja pan would consider retaliation if its negotiators cannot dissuade the United States from going ahead with the penalty duties. But he did not of fer any details on what form the re taliation might take. “We might get tough,” he told a group of foreign journalists. "What is important is to ask them to with draw the duties and ask them to un derstand the true situation. And we can retaliate after that if necessary.” Although Japan is striving to cut its huge trade surplus, it cannot make any concessions on semicon ductor trade to fend off the planned U.S. penalty duties because it is doing nothing wrong, Hatakeyama said. “If we offer any concessions, then that suggests we acknowledge hav ing violated the agreement,” he said. “But in this case we’ve done nothing wrong, so there is nothing we can concede.” The Reagan administration said last week it plans to impose prohib itive tariffs on a range of Japanese electronic goods in mid-April to force Japan into compliance with an accord on semiconductors. Japan agreed last year to open its home market to U.S.-made chips and to avoid selling its chips in for eign markets at unfair low prices. Trade concerns caused in part by the semiconductor dispute caused the dollar to keep sinking Tuesday in Tokyo to another low. The dollar closed at 145.65 yen, down from Monday’s close of 146.20 yen, which had been its lowest point since mod ern exchange rates were set in the late 1940s. The steep fall of the dollar, al though it should help shrink trade imbalances, has raisea fears of reces sion in Japan and inflation and higher interest rates in the United States. Prices on the Tokyo stock market dipped again Tuesday in reaction to dollar jitters. Hatakeyama said the duties on electronic products, scheduled to take effect in two weeks, would have minimal financial impact, but “the psychological impact would be very big.” Wall Street comes ba from drop NEW YORK (AP) - Street recovered Tuexhi the drubbing it received in two previous sessions, lysts dif fered on the si] of the rally.

Kidnappers report hostage’s health deteriorating rapidly, demand swap BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — Mos lem kidnappers said Tuesday that the health of hostage Alann Steen was “deteriorating day by day” and renewed a demand to swap him, two other Americans and an Indian for 400 Arabs in Israeli jails. “Steen’s death will not alter the demand for the release of 400 pris oners,” the Islamic Jihad for the Lib eration of Palestine said in a hand written Arabic statement delivered to the offices of the Beirut indepen dent newspaper An-Nahar. The statement, accompanied by a photograph of U.S. hostage Jesse Turner, said the captives “have been committed for investigation into their crimes.” “All indications suggest that we shall reckon with them and punish them as long as the American ad ministration and the Zionist enemy are not responsive,” it said. The statement said the health of Steen, 47, of Boston was “deteriorat ing day by day despite continuous medication.” The group had released a video taped message last Thursday in which Turner said Steen had diffi culty in breathing and was dying be cause of high blood pressure. On March 23, Islamic Jihad said Steen had fallen ill in captivity and would die within 10 days. In that statement, however, the group of- ferred to free him if Israel releases 100 Arab prisoners. The group demanded the release of 400 Arab prisoners on Jan. 24, when gunmen disguised as Lebanese riot policemen abducted the four ed ucators from the campus of Beirut University College. But two weeks later it withdrew the offer, claiming U.S. and Israeli procrastination. Israel had announced it would not negotiate the swap and the W administration said it wirfp pressure I srael into a trade, | Turner, 39, is from Boise The other two hostages are»3 Polhill, 53, of New York Cm Mithileshwar Singh, 60,an!W India and legal residentalie:If United States.

The hand'' was identical to that of statements by the shadowy Reagan optimistic about economic gauge: WASHINGTON (AP) — The government’s main gauge of future economic activity rose 0.7 percent in February, prompting renewed opti mism from the Reagan administra tion about economic prospects later this year. However, many private econo mists said the Index of Leading In dicators was overstating economic strength. They said the long-awaited rebound in growth will be a modest one at best. The 0.7 percent rise in the index in February followed a revised 0.5 percent January decline and was the best showing since a 2.4 percent surge in December. At the White House, presidential spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said the February gain was a good sign that the economy “appears to be back on track after a brief pause the first month of the year.” Commerce Secretary Malcolm Baldrige said the index has risen at a robust annual rate of 8 percent over the faster the past six months, supporting administration’s hopes for fa growth this year. “Based on past relationships, that gain is consistent with stepped-up growth in real gross national prod uct during the first half of 1987,” Baldrige said. In another economic report re leased Tuesday, the Commerce De partment said that orders factories for manufactured® Ixxisted by a surge in dee®' military hardware, rose 4.3| in February, the best showing' months. The increase put February* at $ 194.6 billion. Economists said the ordt® vance and the jump in the^ index were both signs theec® will continue growing thisyeat 1:00 p.m. AG CONVOCATION and CHILI COOK-OFF Saturday, April 4, 1987 Central Park, College Station Tickets $2. 50 from Kleberg, Dean's Office, Ag Council Representatives, or at the door.
