Hastings of Florida and told the Senate to try him for “high crimes and misdemeanors.” On a vote of 413-3, the House sent a resolution containing 17 arti cles of impeachment to the Senate, which might not take up the matter until next year. If found guilty by a two-thirds majority, Hastings, the first black federal judge in Florida, would lose his $89,500 job. As the vote was being taken, Has tings met with reporters in his office at the federal courthouse in Miami, and once again protested his inno cence of the charges. “We are witnessing the decline of jurisprudence with this investigation and this vote,” Hastings said. “The vote today is a manifestation of insti tutional ignorance.” The resolution charges that Has tings: • Conspired with Washington at torney William Borders to receive a $150,000 bribe from two convicted racketeers; • Lied about the bribe during a criminal trial, and • Compromised three FBI inves tigations by leaking wiretap informa tion over which he had jurisdiction. One article says that Hastings, re quired as a judge to enforce and obey the Constitution and the laws of the United States, did “under mine confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary and be tray the trust of the people of the United States” and haa thus brought “disrepute on the federal courts and the administration of justice by the federal courts. The House Judiciary Committee, in its report supporting the resolu tion, said: “Impeachment protects our so ciety by insuring that those in the highest positions of public trust are held accountable.” Before the vote, Hastings said House members who vote to im peach him will “rubber stamp rac ism.” i at LOS ANGELES (AP)-Theioj negotiator for the striking TV scriptwriters was expected recommend approval of theprodn ers’ latest offer, proposed todayt ter all-night talks, a bargainersaid Writers Guild of America cli negotiator Brian Walton wastopa sent the contract at 1:30 p.m.toil, union’s full negotiating committe A favorable vote could effective end the strike that has paralyzed^ entertainment industry for!, weeks. “It’s my expectation that he going to recommend that we got this,” Arthur Sellers, a member the WGA negotiating comraiiie said. There was no immediate word the contents of the proposed® tract. Formal approval would requirt vote by the lull membership of union. Membership meetings,rfc require a 48-hour advance noiific lion, could be held as early asFni with the vote tally announcedii following day. China changes child policy for peasants BEIJING (AP) — Rural families who have been blessed with a daugh ter but really wanted a son will be al lowed to try again under a new gov ernment policy that bows to the and ecor myths and economic realities that have long made peasants prefer male children. The exception to China’s “one- family, one-child” policy was an nounced Wednesday by a family planning official. “They want boys and they are not abiding by the orig inal policy so we changed it,” he said of the peasants. The new policy, which will not ap ply to city dwellers, was criticized by a United Nations official who said the government should encourage rural families to regard the two sexes equally rather than bend to their prejudices. Li Yong, a spokesman for the State Birth Control Commission, de scribed the new rule in an interview with the Associated Press. His re marks were the first official confir mation of the new policy which amounts to a relaxation of China’s rules which prohibit families from having more than one child. The first word of the new policy appeared Tuesday in the People’s Daily, which reported it had been in stituted in Shandong province. Li said the state will now give peasants “in almost every province” the freedom to have a second child if their first was a girl. About 80 per cent of China’s 1.07 billion people are peasants. Li said families would only be per mitted to have one extra child. “Af ter that they will be subject to the same fines as everybody else,” he said. Astronomers find 10 unknown objects BALTIMORE (AP) — U.S. and Canadian astronomers have found 10 planet-like objects orbit ing distant stars, a discovery that intensifies speculation about the existence of life beyond the Earth. In reports Wednesday at the I nter national Astronomical Union assembly, astronomers from the Smithsonian Astrophy- sical Observatory said they have found “what might be a very large planet” orbiting a star 90 light years away. In an independent study, an astronomer from the Univenity of Victoria, British Columbia, said he has found evidence of planets orbiting nine stars, and suggested that as many as half of the stars in the Milky Way galaxy may have "planetary compan ions.” Both teams of astronomen made the discoveries by analyzing the color shift of light collected from stars. Light from a distant source changes color slightly if the light source is moving. Democrats agree on aid to Contras WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen ate Democrats agreed Wednes day to seek new non-lethal aid for Nicaragua’s Contras, but to defer any action on renewing the flow of weapons in order to give the rebels and the leftist Sandinista government yet another chance to make peace. The aid package, which is to be offered as an amendment to a Pentagon money bill later this week, is designed “to encourage the peace process and ... to send (Nicaraguan President Daniel) Ortega a message that he cannoi continue to have his cake and eat it, too,” said Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd, D-W.Va. The Democratic proposal would provide an additional $21 million in so-called “humanita rian” aid — food, clothing, shel ter and medical supplies — to continue current rates of such aid through next March. Flier returns home from Soviet prison FRANKFURT, West Germany (AP) — Mathias Rust flew home Wednesday after being released early from his Soviet prison sen tence for buzzing the Kremlin spires, and the young pilot ad mitted that his 1987 stunt was an irresponsible act. “I arrived as a child, now I go back as an adult. It’s really re markable,” Rust said in an inter view with the Associated Press on a Lufthansa flight from Moscow to Frankfurt. The 20-year-old who stunned the world and embarrassed the Red Army brass by piloting a sin- gle-enging plane from Finland through the vaunted Soviet air defenses and landing in Red Square said in the future he would commit “no crimes.” The bespectacled young man said he would wait to tell the world the whole story of his 15 months in the nearly empty Le fortovo Prison, but he did say he felt isolation and despair during his time behind bars, although he was treated well.
