WASHINGTON (AP) — The
House, rejecting a decision by one of
its committees, voted overwhelm
ingly Tuesday to seek new details
from President Reagan about U.S.
military plans in the Persian Gulf.
The 302-105 vote approved the
bill and sent it to the Senate.
Democrats who control the Senate
say that chamber also is likely to pass
it, despite congressional fears that
Reagan’s plan to provide U.S. pro
tection for Kuwaiti tankers may in
volve the Navy in the Iran-Iraq war.
The vote on the bill became a test
of the House Democratic leadership
after the Foreign Affairs Committee
rejected the measure earlier in the
day on a voice vote.
Moments later, House Speaker
Jim Wright, D-Texas, promised “ab
solutely, we will pass it” despite the
action by the committee.
Wright was a co-sponsor of the
bill, along with Rep. Bob Michel, R-
111., the Republican leader.
Wright’s lieutenants spent much
of the afternoon lining up support.
The measure needed a two-thirds
margin to pass because House rules
were being suspended.
The bill requires a detailed report
from Reagan about the threat to
U.S. servicemen because of Reagan’s
pledge to keep the Persian Gulf
open in the face of threats to oil
tankers stemming from the long
Iran-Iraq war.
Shultz: Reagan to stress need
for 'adequate force' in gulf
WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi
dent Reagan will underscore the
need for an “adequate force” to pro
tect Persian Gull oil shipments at
next week’s allied economic summit
in Venice, Secretary of State George
P. Shultz said Tuesday.
But, Shultz added, the president
may not ask the allies to increase
their military participatin in a U.S.-
led defense operation beyond the
British and French naval forces al
ready in the tense gulf region.
He told reporters a military
buildup was not necessarily re
quired.
This seemed to conflict with asser
tions Monday by Reagan that he
would press the allies at the eco
nomic talks next week in Venice to
become involved in U.S. efforts to
protect ship movements.
Shultz insisted “there isn’t any
daylight to be found between me
and the president.” He said the
United States was not alone in trying
to deter attack on gulf shipping and
“we don’t want to be alone.”
“What is needed is an adequate
force to deter the use of force
against us,” he said.
The British, with a longstanding
naval presence in the area, contrib
ute an even greater proportional
share to gulf defenses than does the
United States, Shultz said.
“There is a unified view about this
matter and people do the things they
can do,” he said. “Countries are posi
tioned in different ways in terms of
their capabilties, and so we have to
recognize that...
U.S. actions in the gulf are Ixxmd
to dominate the non-economic
agenda at the Venice summit June H-
10. President Reagan will meet there
will the leaders of Britain, Canada,
France, Italy, Japan and West Ger
many.
Majority Leader Tom Foley, D-
Wash., told his colleagues that the
bill doesn’t commit the House to
supporting Reagan’s policies.
, “Suggestions that this is somehow
an advance permission” for adminis
tration military action “are absolu
tely wrong and have no merit what
soever,” he said.
Earlier in the day, Senate Majority
Leader Robert Byrd, D-W.V
die Senate would voteafteri
