LET ME TUST STAMP YOU AS A VISITOR TO 00 R STATICAL.. — Officials say plane flying low for load PARIS (AP) — A new Airbus 320 that crashed at an air show was fly ing too low for the load it carried and the pilot did not have time to maneuver it out of danger, officials said Monday following a preliminary investigation. Three passengers were killed and 50 injured as the jetliner crashed into the woods Sunday during a demonstration flight near Mulhouse in eastern France. Daniel Tennenbaum, chief of the Civil Aviation Authority, said the Air France jet was flying at 30 feet. In Mulhouse, prosecutor Jean Volff said, “The A320 passed at 30 feet altitude, which is completely outside the technical norms when it is carrying passengers, said f He said the normal minimum alti tude for such conditions was 100 feet and added, without giving de tails, that the pilot had “discon nected the automatic controls at the moment of the accident and was in manual control.” Tennenbaum told a news confer ence in Paris the fully computerized aircraft needed eight seconds to re spond to the command of pilot Michel Hasseline and only five sec onds were available because of the low altitude. Hasseline was quoted in the French press Monday as telling a rescuer, “I wanted to increase the power, but the aircraft did not re spond.” Louis Mermaz, the transport min ister, said the crash did not reflect on the performance of the A320. He said there was “no available el ement that puts into question the good functioning of the aircraft and the security of A320 flights during normal functioning. Nothing justi fies ending A320 flights.” Mermaz said he called the news conference because news reports questioned the new aircraft’s reliabil ity and “it was important to respond quickly to the legitimate public ques tions.” A spokesman for Airbus Indus trie, the manufacturer, said earlier there were indications human error caused the crash, but Christian Roger, president of the Air France pilots’ union, said the engines may have failed to restart at the pilot’s command. The aircraft was carrying 133 people. The union added in a statement, “if the breakdown was in the com puter, there would be no informa tion on it in the black box.” Mermaz said both flight recorders were recovered, “so the inquiry should be rapid.” Government officials said pri vately the pilot, Hasseline, and co-pi- lot Pierre Mazieres were not injured and should be able to help investiga tors. The narrow-bodied A320 was de veloped by a European consortium over four years at a cost of $2 billion. National Briefs AMA wants crackdown on drug users CHICAGO (AP) — The nation is losing the “war on drugs” by concentrating on catching traf fickers rather treating abusers, contends a report considered Monday at the American Medical Association’s annual policymak ing convention. “The heart of the problem lies in the demand,” the report says. It recommmends against legal izing drugs, but calls for the fed eral government to ease restric tions on those who may receive methadone treatment. The 420-member House of Delegates, a legislative Ixxly rep resenting the AMA’s 295,000 members, is expected to act on the proposed drug policy before the convention ends Thursday. The report is by the AMA’s hoard of trustees. "We think this lays blueprint for the American pie to effectively do somei about the drug problem, Dr. Lonnie Bristow, an trustee and internist fromBerlij ley, Calif. “We f rankly hate to see just going down the tubes* our nation talks about whnl we should have the Army and i Navy patrolling thebordersio terdict drug sellers,” he said. He said the AMA boards port shows the nation's mm; publicized war on drugs |j “been a failure because its the wrong focus." “As long as we concentraie: the supply end of the proW we’re just pouring money ini sieve,” Bristow said in an ins view Sunday. ittee chaii ey general nt Reag n travel Between 1, 1987, t.

James D. Watkins, the pan el’s chairman. The president announced in a written statement that in re sponse to the commission’s nearly 600 recommendations, he had di rected Dr. Ian MacDonald, a spe cial assistant for drug policy, to recommend within 30 days “a course of action that takes us for ward.” But what Watkins found e heartening was an additK statement that Reagan made connection with the study p principal recommendation-t enactment of federal legislat) prohibiting discriminan against AIDS victims. "At Admiral Watkins’ suggi lion, I have also directed Dr )li Donald to include among priorities consideration of sj etails ol t cific measures to strengthen!: plementation of the pi guidance from ‘AIDS in Workplace,”’ Reagan said. These guidelines, which sp out the rights of AIDS suffer! were given by the Office offi sonnet Management, the ago responsible for the federal gi “rnment’s employees. Rep.

A massive criminal investiga tion of Pentagon contracting practices is centered on the pass ing of secret information to pri vate consultants, who in turn sold it to contractors. The system wasn’t widely talked about between the Defense Department and contractors and so “my mouth fell open” when a contractor she had never met called to ask her for an interpre tation of a document she had written, testified Caroline A. Chewning, who works for the De fense Advanced Research Pro jects Agency. But in general Chewning de fended the system. She said the official contracting system was unworkable, and cials in her agency — whichwoilj on futuristic military tedm — viewed it “in the governmef* AUSTIh interest” to cooperate with oi-H ears t ractors, “or else we are hurtin: Chewning was a witness alijP January 1984 trial in Baltimor] William V.
