Summing up two days of talks by
leaders of the 16-member organiza
tion, President Reagan said, “The
state of the alliance is excellent.
We’re strong, we’re united, we’re
prosperous and we’re free.”
“All of us understand the absolute
necessity of maintaining the credibil
ity of our deterrent,” he said, under
scoring NATO’s commitment to
keep nuclear weapons in Europe.
“We will never trade that credibil
ity away at the negotiating table and
we won’t give it away through ne
glect,” Reagan said.
With the exception of a brief
opening session, the summit was
held behind closed doors at NATO’s
heavily guarded headquarters.
As intended, the meeting closed
with proclamations of Western unity
intended to strengthen Reagan’s
hand in arms-control negotiations
with the Soviet Union.
“The alliance has agreed on its
arms control priorities and is ready
to get down to business,’’Reagan
said. “NATO fully supports my ef
fort to negotiate deep reductions in
strategic weapons.”
In a minor embarrassment about
two hours after the summit’s close,
Reagan told reporters he had not
seen the final communique from the
meeting.
However, White House chief of
staff Howard Baker quickly inter
jected, “No. We saw it last night. No
problems and it’s very good.”
Taking his cue from Baker, Rea
gan said, “Yes, very good, no prob
lems.”
Jewish teen-ager
assaulted by Arab
in West Bank city
JERUSALEM (AP) — An Arab
man stabbed a teen-age Jewish set
tler in the back Thursday as he shop
ped for the Jewish Purim holiday in
the occupied West Bank city of He
bron, the army and witnesses said.
Minutes later, angry Jewish set
tlers attacked photographers taking
pictures there, witnesses said.
Elsewhere in the West Bank, Is
raeli troops wounded four Palestin
ians in violent protests.
On the diplomatic front, U.S. Sec
retary of State George P. Shultz ar
rived in Israel Thursday night for a
last-ditch effort to sell his peace pro
posal. He was met by Foreign Min
ister Shimon Peres, but no
statements were made.
Legislators of Prime Minister Yitz
hak Shamir’s right-wing Likud bloc
have rejected the U.S. proposal, say
ing they will not agree to an interna
tional conference or to the exchange
of land for peace.
The scuffle in Hebron, 20 miles
south of Jerusalem, began shortly af
ter 16-year-old settler Aharon Peretz
was stabbed.
The army said later Peretz was
treated for slight injuries at a Jerusa
lem hospital and released.
A photographer on assignment
for Time magazine was struck with
her camera by enraged Jewish set
tlers. She fell to the ground
unconscious, with a one-inch gash in
her forehead that required five
stitches.
The attack reflected the growing
anger of settlers and much of the Is
raeli public at the news media, which
they blame for tarnishing Israel’s
image abroad and for inflaming un
rest.
In the Arab village of Idna on
Thursday, riot police fired on doz
ens of Palestinians who stoned their
jeep. An army spokesman said three
Arabs were wounded in the legs.
Troops shot a fourth Arab youth
in the neck after Palestinians in
Beita, a village eight miles east of
Nablus, hurled rocks at soldiers,
according to hospital officials and
the Arab-run Palestine Press Service.
Congressmen draft bill
for ‘dramatic’ embargo
toward Noriega regime
WASHINGTON (AP) — Six Re
publican and Democratic congress
men introduced a bill Thursday to
impose an “immediate, dramatic and
devastating” trade, air travel and cu-
rency embargo against the regime of
Panamanian strongman Manuel An
tonio Noriega.
and prohibit U.S. banks from trans
ferring any funds to Panama and its
banking system.
The lawmakers said they would
seek speedy congressional approval
of the embargo bill.
But they said they also hoped to
prod President Reagan to act inde
pendently to adopt a far stronger se
ries of punitive sanctions against the
Noriega regime than he has ap
proved to date.
“By stopping the transfer of funds
from U.S. banks to Panama, we go
for the jugular,” said Sen. Alfonse
D’Amato, R-N.Y., a principal spon
sor of the embargo plan.
“Because of Panama’s heavy reli
ance on its economic ties with the
United States, the impact of a U.S.
trade embargo would be immediate,
dramatic and devastating to Noriega
and his cohorts,” D’Amato said.
The proposed embargo would bar
all imports from Panama, prohibit
all U.S. exports to that nation, bar all
air travel between the two countries
Panamanian opposition leader Ri
cardo Arias Calderon, president of
the Christian Democratic Party, told
reporters later that a trade embargo
would be “strong medicine” but that
such a remedy is sometimes needed
for people to regain their health.

House defeats package for Contra aid
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
House on Thursday killed a $30
million package of purely “hu
manitarian” aid for Nicaragua’s
Contras that had been pushed by
Democrats as a way to ease pres
sure for future military aid for
the rebels.
The final vote of 216-208
against the plan came minutes af
ter the lawmakers had voted 215-
210 to accept a Democratic ver
sion of the aid package that also
included sharp restrictions on
how the rebels could use the
money and a new fund to aid chil
dren who are victims of the Nica
raguan civil war.
Defeat of the aid package
meant the rebels, whose last U.S.
aid ran out on Tuesday, would be
left without new supplies until
Congress could make another try
Liberal Democrats, who have
steadfastly opposed aid to the re
bels in the past, teamed with Re
publicans, for whom the package
was too weak, to defeat it.
As the House debated the
Democratic plan, Rep. Charles
Stenholm, D-Texas, charged that
it would have placed control of a |
$14 million fund to aid children
who are victims of the civil war in
the hands of the leftist Nicara
guan government, prompting an
angry response from House
Speaker Jim Wright, D-Texas.
Earlier, the speaker had called
the dispute over the aid package
“a battle for peace in Nicaragua,
and for a constructive role for the
United States in Central America
as opposed to a destructive role."
Macy’s aquires department store chain
NEW YORK (AP) — Feder
ated Department Stores Inc.
agreed Wednesday to be acquired
by R.H. Macy & Co., but an un
daunted Campeau Corp. pro
ceeded with its rival bid for the
nation’s fifth largest retailer.
A Federated spokesman said in
a joint statement with Macy, the
nation’s 10th largest general re
tail concern, that the two compa
nies had signed a definitive
agreement to create a new com
pany, Macy’s-Federated Inc.
Macy operates 96 stores in 14
states, while Federated has 650
stores — including such depart
ment stores as Bloomingdale’s,
Foley’s, Filene’s and Bullock’s —
in 36 states.
The agreement provides for
Macy to begin a cash tender offer
of $74.50 a share for about 80
percent of Federated’s 89.6 mil
lion outstanding shares, or a total
of $5.25 billion, the companies
said. The remaining Federated
shares would be exchanged for
stock in the new company.
Campeau, a Toronto-based
real estate developer and retailer,
had offered $68 a share in cash
outright for all Federated shares,
or a total of $6.1 billion.
Late Wednesday, Campeau
said it was amending its pre
viously announced $68 cash ten
der offer for Federated.
