President Jose Napoleon Duarte to
the White House Wednesday and
they agreed there can be no lasting
peace in Central America without
democratic rule throughout the re

Duarte was offered an enthusias
tic official reception as he began a
state visit and he showed his appre
ciation for U.S. support by kissing an
American flag displayed on the
White House south lawn.
After a ceremony that featured
full military honors, Reagan said
E eace prospects for Central America
ave been enhanced because of the
agreement Duarte and four other
area presidents signed two months
ago.
Some administration officials
have been privately critical of Duarte
for signing the peace agreement,
contending that it does not address
key questions, such as Soviet-Cuban
military ties with Nicaragua’s leftist
government.

“If peace is to prevail, so must de
mocracy,” the president said, adding
that a successful outcome of the
Aug. 7 accord remains “far from
certain.”
Duarte, in a similar vein, said Cen-
Reagan was effusive in his praise
for Duarte, a close ally whose coun
try has received hundreds of mil
lions of dollars in U.S. economic and
military aid over the past six years.
Salvadoran government and rebel
leaders met last week to discuss ways
to end their 8-year-old conflict, but
the two sides remain far apart. If a
truce cannot be negotiated before
the deadline, Duarte has said he will
declare a unilateral cease-fire in or
der to comply with the peace
agreement.
The conflict is believed to have
claimed more than 60,000 lives.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) —
Two Americans shared the Nobel
Prize in chemistry with a French re
searcher Wednesday, and a West
German and a Swiss scientist won
the prize in physics for a break
through in superconductors that
could lead to faster computers and
speedier trains.
The discoveries that led to both
prizes came by accident when the sci
entists were looking for something
else, said members of the Royal
Swedish Academy of Sciences, which
chose the winners.
Each Nobel carries a cash prize of
about $340,000, which is divided if
more than one laureate is named for
each prize.
Chemists Donald J. Cram of the
University of California at Los An
geles; Charles J. Pedersen, retired
from the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology; and Jean-Marie Lehn
of the Universite Louis Pasteur in
Strasbourg, France, won the chemis
try prize.
They developed molecules that
can link up with particular other
molecules, a principle now used in
medical testing. Tneir work could
lead to an endless supply of energy
by extracting hydrogen from water,
academy member Bo Malmstrom
said. It also could give insight into
crucial biological reactions.
West German Georg Bednorz and
Swiss K. Alex Mueller won the phys
ics prize for developing ceramic
material that can act as a supercon
ductor at a higher temperature than
before.
Superconductors conduct electric
ity without losing current to resis
tance. Their application has been
limited because they must be chilled
well below minus 400 degrees Fahr
enheit.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The na
tion’s persistent trade deficit showed
its first decline in five months as it
narrowed slightly to $15.7 billion in
August, but an unexpected dip in
U.S. overseas sales clouded the im
provement, the government said
Wednesday.
The Commerce Department said
the merchandise trade deficit, the
shortfall between imports and ex
ports, was down from the record
$ 16.5 billion gap posted in July.
Despite the one-month im
provement, acting Commerce Secre
tary Bruce Smart said the deficit
“continues on an unacceptably high
g lateau,” with the United States still
uying nearly twice as much as its
sells.
For the first eight months of 1987,
the trade deficit has been running at
an annual rate of $ 171.1 billion.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A diet
rich in potassium from fruits and
vegetables protects arteries from the
ravages of high blood pressure and
dramatically lowers the risk of
stroke, animal studies show.
“You get tremendous protection
from strokes by eating more fruits
and vegetables,” Dr. Louis Tobian of
the University of Minnesota said
Wednesday.

young people who may consume a
lot of fast food.
“I’m worried about the young sin
gles or marrieds so involved in their
careers that they just pick up one
junk food after another,” he said. “I
think there’s going to be a price paid
down the line.”

Tobian and his colleague, Tokui-

prone rats that high blood pressure
damages the endothelium, a single
layer of cells lining arteries in both
rats and humans. That damage can
lead to obstruction or rupture of ar
teries.

Strokes afflict 500,000 Americans
each year, killing 155,000 of them,

Most fruits and vegetables are
good sources of potassium, Tobian
said in an interview. Among the best
are bananas, strawberries, potatoes
and orange and grapefruit juice.
Skim milk is another good source, he

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — An ex
plosion rocked a Chinatown restau
rant at lunch hour Wednesday,
show-ering glass and debris over a
crowded street and injuring 25 peo
ple, authorities reported.
The three-alarm fire at the Can
ton Tea House was extinguished
within a half-hour, but authorities
remained at the scene treating in
jured people as a crowd developed
in the busy neighborhood.
There was no immediate word on
what caused the explosion. Wit
nesses said the fire began in the back
of the building near the kitchen and
spread to the front.
Fire Chief Ed Phipps said the
cause was under investigation.
Asked if it could be anything but a
gas explosion, he replied: “I don’t
think it was a bomb.”
Paramedic Robert Navarro said
25 people were injured. Four were
in critical condition with burn inju
ries and 16 were hospitalized in all.
