U.S. troops to stay after finishing joint maneuvers, Honduras says
By United Press International
HONDURAS — Up to 1,700 U.S. troops will stay on in Honduras to carry out activities that include air reconnaissance missions despite the conclusion of Big Pine II joint military maneuvers, Honduran officials said yesterday.
The Honduran armed forces announced that "the governments of Honduras and the United States have agreed that U.S. military forces will be instructing planning and support exercises, temporarily after the Big Pine II."
"THE NUMBER OF United States military personnel will vary weekly and will reach a peak of around 1,700 soldiers with later reductions until the next exercise begins," the communique
said.
The joint U.S. Honduran Big Pine Imaneux officially ended Wednesday but further joint exercises — the Big Pine III — will begin later this year.
In neighboring Nicaragua, the government presented a captured Honduran soldier who claimed Honduran and U.S. helicopter pilots were flying missions in support of rebels fighting Nicaragua's leftist government.
At a Mexico City news conference, Salvadoran rebel leaders unveiled proposals for a provisional government that would welcome the participation of most political groups now in the U.S.-backed government.
THE SALVADORAN guerrillas presented a 20-point plan for a "provisional government of broad participation" that would include most
parties except the far-right ARENA party.
The rebels said that they would not accept the outcome of U.S. backed presidential elections set for March 25. The insurgents would not block the voting.
Meanwhile, witnesses and journalists confirmed in El Salvador that guerrillas of the Popular Liberation Forces massacred 23 army soldiers and six militiamen after their surrender in a battle Wednesday northwest of San Salvador.
Also yesterday, retired Army Gen. William Westmoreland said that the United States should increase the number of military advisers in Central America and step up training there to secure air and sea routes vital to American security.
WOLFSBURG, West Germany — Volkswagen, West Germany's leading car maker, said yesterday that it planned a $222 million agreement with the company to produce 286,000 engines in the country beginning in 1988.
A Volkswagen spokesman said the agreement, thought to be the first of its kind between a West German car firm and East Germany, involved an engine from the company over 100,000 motors annually to the company's West German plant in Salzgitter.

GOVERNMENT CRITICS charged the proposal was designed to counter any gains by opposition parties in the scheduled May parliamentary elections, which Sin said Marcos called to mollyfight opponents.
The contract with East German state-run foreign trade concerns should be signed by mid-1894, the spokesman said.
Under the contract, valued at $222 million and valid until 1993, Volkswagen also planned a preliminary shipment of 2,000 transporter trucks and other vehicles to East Germany. The agreement was signed, to be followed by annual deliveries of 2,300 vehicles, the spokesman said.
MANILA. Philippines — Thousands of protesters yesterday demanded an end to the authoritarian rule of President Ferdinand Marcos, who was accused by the top Philippine church official of using "brass knuckles" to stay in power.
"With the left hand he is giving them some candy," Sin said in a speech to a civic gathering. "But with

ORGANIZERS SAID the protest was intended to pressure Marcos into granting demands for reforms to ensure the May elections were fair.
"We doubt very much he'll agree in the next five days," said Aquino. "When you have a dictator, he doesn't give up that easily."
After the rally, 2,000 of the protesters, mostly students, marched about three miles to a Manila suburb chanting "Boycott Election '84" and "Marcos, Dictator, Dog." There were no reports of incidents.
Agapito Aquino, brother of slain opposition leader Benigno Aquino, told reporters at the rally that Marcos probably would not agree to the conditions.
Some opposition leaders have called for a boycott of the balloting unless Marcos agrees by Tuesday to six demands, including relinquishing his
