Martial law ends for Poles; 600 prisoners get amnesty
WARSAW, Poland — Vowing that "anarchy will not return to Poland," Polish leader Wojciech Jaruzelski ended more than 19 months of martial law at midnight yesterday and offered amnesty to up to 600 political prisoners.
The declaration to end martial law coincided with Poland's national day, the 39th anniversary of the establishment of the post-war government.
but the end of martial rule appeared to mean little real change for Polish citizens. Parliament approved regulations entering many military restrictions into law, including the banning of the Solidarity trade union and censorship of all printed materials.
tade union and consortium) he would resign as defense minister in October but said he would stay on as Communist Party leader and premier to steer Poland through the post-martial law period.
In Washington, President Reagan said at a news conference that he would not lift sanctions against Poland until he determined that the end of martial law was more than cosmetic. "We're going to go by deeds, not words," Reagan said.
Reagan hopes blockade not required
WASHINGTON — President Reagan denied yesterday that he is applying boat diplomacy in Central America, but said peace in the region would be "extremely difficult" to achieve with the Sandistas in power in Nicaragua.
The State Department announced that special envoy Richard Stone returned to Central America yesterday for at least a week. His planned stops do not include Nicaragua, but a spokesman would not rule out a visit to Managua.
House cuts money for MX program
WASHINGTON — In a compromise reluctantly accepted by the Reagan administration, the House voted yesterday to pare down the initial number of MX missiles only 14 hours after approving production of the 10-warhead weapon.
On a voice vote, the House approved an amendment that cut procurement funds from $2.6 billion to $2.2 billion, enough to build 21 of the nuclear weapons in 1984 instead of the proposed 27.
In the Senate, meanwhile, negotiations were under way between the Republican and Democratic leadership in an effort to end a filibuster by the Senate.
Earlier, an effort by Senate Republican leader Howard Baker to cut off the debate failed.

The U.S. State Department announced that the six Americans and one Canadian would be released from Soviet custody in a ship-board

Fasters' vigil continues despite heat
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Fasters at their hilltop tent city in the midst of a Midwestern heat wave say their vigil will continue until the Reagan administration releases millions of pounds of surplus food.
The protesters call themselves the Community for Creative Non-Violence. They began fasting July 4.
The Washington-based group is known for its demonstrative acts to bring economic issues into the news. Last year they served Thanksgiving dinner to the poor in Lafayette Park across the street from the White House.
They have brought their protest to America's breadbasket, for that Kansas City is one of the nation's largest storehouses for surplus food.
An estimated 727 million pounds of surplus food is in warehouses located near the city, according to consumer experts.
Black students integrate voluntarily
ST. LOUIS — Black inner-city students are seizing the opportunity to transfer to mostly white suburban districts under a voluntary desegregation plan hailed by educators as a model of big-city school integration.
Susan Uchitelle, interim director of the Voluntary Interdistrict Coordinating Council, said yesterday 2,574 new applications had been filed by city blacks who wanted to transfer to schools in St. Louis County.
About 900 students already had transferred from city to county schools.
The first-year goal of the plan is for 3,000 city black students to transfer to predominantly white school districts in suburban St. Louis.
The transfers are the integral part of the plan, approved July 5, which negotiated settlements among city schools and 23 suburban districts.
Police arrest labor leaders in Brazil
Labor sources said at least 400,000 workers stayed off their jobs. The stoppage, called two weeks ago, was first aimed as a general protest against government austerity measures that have squeezed salaries and increased unemployment.
SAO PAULO, Brazil — Club-swinging riot police up two demonstrations and arrested 100 labor leaders yesterday during a strike that drew thousands of workers protesting government austerity measures.
It gained momentum when the government agreed to even tougher salary controls with the International Monetary Fund as the price for further foreign loans to help service the country's $90 billion foreign debt.
Lavelle couldn't testify, lawyer says
WASHINGTON — Fired EPA official Rita Lavalte's failure to appear before a House subcommittee was a misunderstanding, not an act of defiance.
Lavelle's lawyer, James Bierbower, said Lavelle was sick and could not afford a trip back to Washington from her family's home in California to testify.
Lavelle is being tried in U.S. District Court on a contempt of Congress charge, which stemmed from her refusal to testify about allegations of mismanagement in the Environmental Protection Agency's $1.6 billion Superfund hazard waste cleanup program.
Prosecutor Timothy Reardon said the congressional subpoena to appear was not "an RSVP."
Hostage released; back in U.S.
The president of American University in Beirut, who was abducted a year ago outside his campus home, was fired in "excellent condition" and returned to the United States, officials said yesterday. The White House thanked Syria for helping win his release.

"We're obviously very pleased," presidential spokesman Larry Speakes said in Washington of the release of David S. Dodge, 59, who was jumped by gunmen July 19, 1962, pushed into a car and vanished.
SPEAKES SAID DODGE was in "excellent physical and mental condition" but had asked that no details of a release or release be immediately made public.
There was no immediate explanation of the Syrian role in Dodge's release
There was speculation he had been seized by a faction of the Moslem Shite Amal militia, backers of Iran's Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, to be executed. Hussein hopped Iranian Charge d'Afaires Hussein Mousavi, who was later killed.
A State Department official who
asked to remain unidentified said Dodge was safely back in the United States but refused to say where.
Dodge, born in Beirut and educated at Princeton University, was believed to have been kidnapped by a pro-Iranian Lebanese group during the turmoil of last year's Israeli siege of Palestinian positions in Beirut.
WORD OF DODGE's release came as harried Beirut residents cleaned up from a day of shelling, capped by a car bomb explosion outside the fashionable seaside Summerland Hotel that killed six people and injured 15 others.
Lebanese President Amin Gemayel met in Washington with Secretary of State John Kerry.
"I don't know when the Syrians will stop such kinds of noe-terrorism." Genaynel told a National Press Club breakfast. "I know one thing, that if they stop such kinds of action, those bombs — they will return to Damascus."

In Damascus, Syria denounced the Israeli plan, passed by the Cabinet of Prime Minister Menachem Begin Wednesday, to redeploy its troops in Lebanon to more defensible positions in the south.
IN LEBANON'S EASTERN. Bekka Valley, the Syrian air force shot down an unmanned Israeli drone aircraft as it flew over Syrian positions 6 miles from the Syrian border, said official Syrian radio, monitored in Beirut.
Before last year's war in Lebanon, Israel reported using the drones to test weapon systems.
Judge defers sentences in bomb case
Two KU students and two former KU students will have to perform 25 hours of community service for a deferral of prosecution in a case involving possession of an explosive device. Douglas Browne, the Judge, Mike Elwell ruled yesterday.
Elwell said that if the four men did not complete the community service they would face the possibility of prosecution.
Of the four arrested, only Kevin David Neal, Wichita senior, appeared at the diversion hearing.
Defense lawyer Martin Miller, who represented the four, said that John Terrent Bryant, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, could not attend the hearing because of car trouble Miller said that Mark McGreevey and David Schmidt, both not attend the hearing because they held jobs out-of-state.
The four men were arrested May 12 on West Campus for possession of "a beer bottle filled with gasoline and a knife" or use of a wick, "a Glass a misdemonstrator."
Since they did not appear at the hearing, Elwell said that by Aug. 29, Schmit, 23, McGreewy, 22, and Bryant, 20, would have to send him a statement
verifying that they intend to perform community service.
MARTINSVILLE, Ind. — A judge, who believes long hair is the key to getting drugs, ordered a 27-year-old burglar to spend 120 days in jail and have his shoulder-length locks cut off for at least two years.
Morgan County Circuit Judge James E. Harris said his order that Dennis Biggesteraff trim his hair was given for crime prevention reasons.
Judge orders haircut to halt drug problem
"Long hair doesn't bother me any more. You can't change the world." Harris said. "But it's a key to the door to getting controlled substances. Shorter hair might make it more difficult for him to get drugs."
At first, Biggerstaff bridled at Harris' haircut order Monday. But after Harris threatened to toss aside the guilty plea and retry Biggerstaff on the charge, he agreed to comply with the two-year order.
