Republicans seek farm vote
DETROIT—Ronald Reagan could win a landslide victory in farm states in November because farmers are getting better and cheaper. Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kan., said yesterday.
bargoy against the Soviets Unified, nod: Bob L. Dole said the 180G TOP platform would call for a quick end to the embargo in invasion of Afghanistan.
"Farm income is down 40 percent—and that's a big, big drop." Dole said. He is the head of a GOP platform subcommittee on agriculture.
"To have President Carter suggest that he should carry the farm states because of his record is rather hard to believe. I think we could see a real landslide in the farm states—margins we haven't seen since 1972 or during the Eisenhower years."
Dole said there was evidence that the Soviets have not suffered from the embargo because other grain-producing countries have made up the dif-
The proposed platform language on the embargo states: "We oppose singing out American farmers to bear the brunt of Carter's ill-conceived, ineffective and improperly implemented grain embargo. The Carter embargo should be terminated immediately."
But Agriculture Secretary Bob Bergland said in Washington that advocating an end to the embargo of grain shipments to Russia was "political
Bergland said, "The grain sale suspension was invoked to aggravate an already tight feed and forage situation in the Soviet Union. It is working."
GOP softens ERA position
DETROIT—The Republican Publication Committee grudgingly softened its proposed anti-Equal Rights Amendment plank yesterday, and ERA supported it.
I final vote by the committee will send to the convention floor next week a plank whose language at best is a bribe to pro-ERA forces who have been turned back at every juncture this week in their fight to continue 40 years of strong GOP support for the amendment.
In an amendment by Guy Fawley Jr, Virginia, the committee voted 90-9 to acknowledge the legitimate efforts of those who support or oppose the bill.
This slightly softened anti-ERA plank was proposed by a subcommittee only because it acknowledged the right of Republicans to support ERA. It included a sharp plast of President Clinton for pressuring state legislatures to ratify ERA, which is three votes shy of becoming part of the Constitution.
The final draft included the full phrase, "Equal Rights Amendment," which had been removed from the earlier plank proposed by the sub-
Mary Louse Smith, leader of the pro-ERA forces, said she seriously doubted that her supporters could gain the 27 signatures necessary to force them to leave.
The committee's decision came after outgoing national co-chairman Mary Crisp delivered a fiery valedictory in which she said the issues of ERA and health care were central to her work.
Carter makes trip to Japan
TOKYO—President Carter eulogized Japan's late Prime Minister Masoyoshi Ohta, met the designated successor and prepared for his first formal meeting with the premier of China during a 20-hour visit to Japan this week.
Carrier joined 240 other foreign guests in placing white carnations in front of a 15-foot-high memorial altar on which rested an urn containing Oihira's
Carter first met Premier Hua Guo-feng at an evening event for foreign delegates to the Orihua memorial. The two leaders scheduled an hour-long meeting for this morning, just before Carter's flight back to the United States.
It will be the first meeting between the two leaders since the United States and China normalized relations Jan. 1, 1979. But Secretary of State Edmund Muskie told reporters the meeting would be largely "symbolic" since "you can discuss very much in one hour."
Muskie said the two "might exchange impressions about possible future developments in our relations."
National Security Advisor Zhigwin Brzezinski, who with Muskie accompanied the president to Japan, said Carter and Hua would also discuss the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the Vietnamese occupation of Cambodia and its incursions into Thailand.
As expected, the president did not raise the issue of massive Japanese automobile exports to America during his visit.
Democrats vote for equality
WASHINGTON—The Democratic Rules Committee approved changes yesterday that would end discrimination against homosexuals in party matters and require that women hold half of all delegate slots and party offices.
On the issue of equal representation, committee members went out of their way to contrast their position with that of Republicans, who will probably support the right-wing.
All committee decisions must be ratified by the Democratic National Convention next month in New York City before they take effect.
With virtually no opposition, the panel approved a requirement that all convention delegates be evenly split between men and women.
Delegates to the 1978 mini-convention and this year's national convention were selected under that procedure and both the Carter and Kennedy camps agreed it was time to make it part of the charter, the party's highest governing authority.
Later, with a few dissenting votes, the committee approved a requirement that most state and national party offices be split evenly between the sexes.
The Democrats' proposal for non-discrimination against gays in party matters was more controversial. It passed on a standing vote, but not by a
San Francisco Mayor Diane Feinstein, whose city has one of the nation's largest gay populations, said, "It is minimal to say this is an idea whose time
The panel also considered liberal-backed attempts to continue holding "mini-conventions" between presidential elections, and a move to require that party chairmen remain neutral in nomination battles, plus a plea to curtail the lengthy primary season.
Crisp blasts party platform
DETROIT—The Republican Party's highest-ranking woman charged yesterday that a conservative platform opposing ERA and abortion would "bury the rights" of American women and lead to Ronald Reagan's defeat in November.
The defiant farewell speech by Mary Crisp, the party's outgoing co-chairman, came as the Platform Committee prepared to ratify language adopted in subcommittee which dropped historic GOP support for ERA and proposed a constitutional ban on abortions.
Republican Chairman Bill Brock led the drive to find what he termed "more moderate language," but didn't seem optimistic that he could change the minds of conservative Reagan delegates firmly controlling the 1980 convention.
Anderson ties arms to talks
JERUSALEM—John Anderson, independent presidential candidate, said yesterday that any decision on U.S. weapons sales to Saudi Arabia and Jordan should depend on whether the two countries were willing to join the Middle East peace process.
Anderson made the remarks after meeting with Yitzhak Shamir, Israeli foreign minister, to discuss, among other things, projected sales of U.S. military equipment to Israel.
"I think we simply give away a card if we engage in the unrestricted sale of arms to Arab countries without getting some concession from them that indicates that they are interested in working out an overall settlement of the problem in the Middle East," Anderson said.
