House passes vote Writers Guild
to impeach judge EE't
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
House, with only three dissenting
votes, today impeached U.S. District
Judge Alcee L. 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.”

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.
