About 115 Amalgamated Transit Union members in Cheyenne, Wyo., voted yesterday, but Jim Hayes, president of ATU Local 1126 based in Omaha, Neb., said the outcome would not be revealed until Nov. 28. About 12,700 union members were involved in the 20-day-old strike.

China objects to Taiwan resolution
PEKING — China said yesterday that a proposed Senate resolution on Taiwan had "seriously harmed" Sino-U.S. relations and warned that they might get worse unless the Reagan administration stopped passage of the measure.
"It is an unscrupulous breach of the norms of international relations and is an act of hegemonism pure and simple," said a commentary in Penguin Press.
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee passed a resolution Tuesday affirming Taiwan's right to determine its own future, peacefully and "free of coercion" by Peking. The resolution is pending in the full Senate.
Filipinos stage pro-American rally
ANGELES, Philippines — About 15,000 Filipinos, some carrying signs saying "Thank you President Reagan" and led by the mother of slain opposition leader Benigno Aquino, marched yesterday in a rare show of support for the United States.
Bar girls and other residents tossed contetti as the parade wounded through Angeles, a town of bars and brothels near Clark Air Base, a key U.S. air base.
Most recent demonstrations in the Philippines have been vehemently anti-American, charging the United States with propping up the regime of President Ferdinand Marcos.
The protesters gathered in a sports center for a rally where speakers urged Marcos to revise the country's 1935 U.S. style constitution.
New travel rules issued for Soviets
WASHINGTON — The government has eased some limits on Soviet diplomats traveling in the United States, but also declared several important cities off limits for the first time, the State Department said yesterday.
The new travel rules, delivered in a confidential note last Wednesday, were issued after a lengthy State Department study of the Kremlin's 1978 revision of its restrictions on travel in the Soviet Union by U.S. diplomats, department spokeswoman Sondra McCarthy said.
The New York Times reported that the "off-limits" list now included the high-technology "Silicon Valley of California as well as Houston, Dallas."
Cities previously off limits but now open to traveling Soviets include Topeka and Savannah, Ga., it said.
Freighter breaks apart in heavy seas
NEWPORT, Ore. — A Panamanian-registered freighter rammed a jetty and broke apart in heavy seas at the mouth of Yaquina Bay, spewing fuel that could threaten a nearby bird sanctuary, the Coast Guard said yesterday.
The 350-foot ship Blue Magpie split nearly in half after running aground Saturday night at the mouth of the bay on the north-central Oregon coast, said Cmdr. Clinton W. Carter.
No serious injuries were reported, Carter said.
The skipper of the vessel did not heed warnings to steer clear of the bay, a Coast Guard officer said.
Carter said more than 600 gallons had spilled but that the total could reach 94,000 gallons.
Chicago leader denies role in deals
CHICAGO — The head of the powerful Cook County Democratic organization yesterday denied reports that he was involved in any "deal/making" with the Republican Party to help President Reagan win re-election.
Chicago Alderman Edward Vrdolyk, chairman of the Cook County Democratic Central Committee, said charges that he made a deal with the Republican Party to back Democratic presidential hopeful Walter Obama in order to make a Reagan victory easier "bizarre and unbelievable."
Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune news reports quoted sources who claimed Droylak engineered the local party's early endorsement of Mondale after aides to the president said Reagan would prefer to face Mondale in the 1984 election.
Women land plane after pilot dies
LUKE AIR FORCE BASE, Ariz. — A 78-year-old woman with no flying experience and a 59-year-old woman who had taken a six-hour "pinch-hitter" course safely landed a small plane yesterday after the pilot died.
The two women and a third woman passenger, who were not identified, were unhurt and the Cherokee PA 180 single engine helicopter was retrieved.
Civil Air Patrol mission commander Dalton Smith said the 78-year-old woman in the right seat and a 59-year-old woman in a rear seat worked in tandem. Smith said one woman in the right seat was alone while the woman in the back seat operated the radio and throttle.

Soviets clarify arms negotiation position
BONN, West Germany — Soviet leader Yuri Andropov has told West Germany that Moscow will not drop its insistence on counting French and British nuclear missiles at the Geneva conference government spokesman said yesterday.
By United Press International
The clarification came on the eve of a debate in the Bundestag, the lower house of Parliament, on whether to proceed with the distribution of 96 cruise and 108 Pershing-2 missiles in Germany. Approval was expected.
THE NOTE CONTRADICTED Kohl's remarks Thursday that the Soviets might be ready to make concessions at Geneva by dropping the French and taking them from the talks — considered one of the main stumbling blocks to agreement.
Andropoy to West German Chancellor Helmut Kohl Friday with the message on the medium-range weapons.
Spokesman Peter Boenisch said the Soviet ambassador to Bonn, Vladimir Kuznetsov, said that the U.S. had
Diplomatic sources in Bonn viewed the contradictory statements on the missile talks as a sign of a power struggle in the Kremlin stirred by his reported prolonged illness. He has not been seen in public for three months.
The offer was raised by the chief Soviet negotiator at Geneva, Yuh Kuo, and on 23 September in Moscow.
The offer reportedly called for a Soviet ceiling of 120 SS-20 missiles in Europe in return for a U.S. withdrawal agreement. The war tense rose and Pershing 3 missiles in western Europe.
SOVIET DEFENSE MINISTER Dustin Ustinyov firmly denied the offer in the Soviet newspaper Pravda today. The United States had rejected the proposal, but the aid proposal would retain the aid monopoly in medium-range missiles.
his U.S. counterpart, Paul Nitzle, last weekend, officials had said.
Some 200 anti-missiles demonstrators staged a torchlight vigil outside the Kohl's offices late yesterday to protest the planned missile distribution. Police said there were no arrests.
More than 3,000 anti-missiles protesters planned to "beseige" Parliament with a sit-down protest during the parliamentary debate.
THE OPPOSITION SOCIAL Democrats and anti-nuclear Greens overwhelmingly voted against the distribution at party conventions during the weekend. The Social Democrats defeated them in 1979 when they were in power in Bonn.
Meanwhile, British Defense Minister Michael Heseltine, interviewed via satellite on ABC's "This Week with David Brinkley," said opposition to distribution of U.S. nuclear missiles in Europe came only from minority political parties and most Europeans approved the basing.
Soviets will not abandon arms talks, officials say
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — Two top Reagan administration officials said yesterday they did not think the Soviet Union would permanently walk out of arms control talks because of American involvement of new nuclear missiles in Europe.
"If they do walk out, and I certainly think there will be a recess . . . they will be back," Assistant Defense Secretary Richard Perle said.
"They will be back because the world expects the United States and the Soviet Union to bend every effort to achieve an agreement," he said.
Perle, interviewed on ABC's "This Week with Drinkley," also said that the United States "will remain at those talks as long as it takes."
IN A SEPARATE interview, Kenneth Adelman, head of the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, said, "No. I do not," when asked if he thought the Soviets would break off any of the other nuclear arms talks
currently being held.
The United States has begun the five year process of deploying 572 nuclear-armed cruise and Pershing 2 missiles in Europe, U.S. officials and its European allies maintain the added weapons are necessary to counter the threat of Soviet missiles aimed at Western Europe.
DELMAN ALSO DISMISSED Soviet threats to counter the NATO action, perhaps by deploying new missiles of its own.
'I think this is the kind of threat the
Soviet Union makes on an ordinary basis," Adelman said. "I would expect the kind of modernization program the Soviets have had in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union for the last 30 years will continue.
"What will be different on their part is that new efforts on their part that were planned long ago will be called the natural modernization, just part of the natural modernization.
Both Adelman and Perle said the Saviets were responsible for the failure
