Reagan asks Japan's envoy to improve defense, trade
WASHINGTON—President Reagan urged Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone yesterday to accelerate Japan's defense role in the western Pacific and expand its markets for U.S. products despite political opposition in Tokyo.
The new prime minister reaffirmed ties between the United States and Japan, but said he could not move as quickly as Reagan wanted on the sensitive trade and defense issues because of political difficulties at home.
Reagan and Nakasone met at the White House for about three hours, working during lunch and spending a 30-minute session together with only interpreters present. The Japanese leader was to return again to the White House this morning.
the white house this morning.
Reagan told Nakasone that the United States wanted Japan to move more quickly to take over defense of Japanese territory, air space and sea lanes extending 1,000 miles south and east of its shoreline.
But Nakasone said the expansion of Japan's defense role must be weighed against the political realities of Japan, where there has been strong opposition to militarization since World War II.
WASHINGTON — Conservatives may not back President Reagan for re-election in 1984 unless he reverses what they consider "almost a stampede to the left" in the White House, three New Right leaders said yesterday in separate interviews.
Reagan irks right by 'stampede left'
"Quick and comprehensive changes" in Reagan's staff and policies are needed to get back longtime supporters to the conservative wing of the Republican party, they said.
the republican party, they said. No candidate that stands for such things as "the biggest tax increase in history . . . can represent conservatives in 1984," said Howard Phillips, head of the Conservative Caucus, a New Right lobbying group.
Richard Vigueur, publisher of the monthly Conservative Digest, and Paul Weyrich, head of the Committee for the Survival of a Free Congress, also said Reagan was losing support among the New Right.
Salvadoran rebels kill 35 soldiers
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador — Rebels said yesterday that they have killed 35 soldiers participating in a 6,000-troop counter-insurgency offensive shaping up to be the biggest battle in El Salvador's three-year-old civil war.
Guerrilla Radio Venceremos said rebel forces killed 35 soldiers and took eight prisoners in a leftist advance Monday to Meanguera, 12 miles north of the capital of Morazan province, San Francisco Gotera.
military sources in San Francisco Gotera, 72 miles northeast of San Salvador, said guerrillas armed with heavy automatic weapons attacked Osicaile, less than six miles to the north.
Three U.S. trained "immediate reaction battalions," Atonal, Attacat and Bellosco, are among government forces moving against guerrillas north of San Francisco Gotera, rebel and military sources said.
Pope condemns dangerous trends
VATHICAN CITY — Pope John Paul II, in a sweeping condemnation yesterday of trends in modern society, said mankind was threatened by genetic engineering, environmental pollution and ideologies that imprisoned men's souls.
Sounding a pessimistic note on "the future of human civilization," the pope also criticized what he said was the lack of dialogue between nations and the growth of soul-destroying consumerism.
Speaking in French to the Vatican's Pontifical Council for Culture, the pope condemned what he said was the continuing use of torture, abortion, and religious suppression.
"Even more, mankind is the victim of certain political or ideological regimes that imprison the soul of peoples," the pope said.

Utilities unveil nuclear campaign
WASHINGTON — The utility industry unveiled a year-long, $40 million campaign yesterday to promote nuclear power — an effort that will be financed largely by utility customers in their monthly electric bills.

The high-powered campaign will rely heavily on television advertising in an attempt to change negative public attitudes toward nuclear power, utility officials said.
The Committee for Energy Awareness, the industry group conducting the effort, has collected $25 million from utility companies to pay for the campaign, said Harold Finger, president of the group.

Polish reporter expelled from U.S.
WASHINGTON — The State Department retaliated yesterday for the expulsion of United Press International reporter Ruth Gruber from Poland by ordering a Polish News Agency correspondent to leave the United States within two days.
United States within two days.
The announcement made clear that the expulsion of Stanisław Glabinski was a direct reprisal for the treatment of Gruber and not for any improper behavior on his part.
In Warsaw, Polish authorities lodged a “sharp protest” with U.S. Ambassador Francis Mehan over the action against Glabinski.
The U.S. retaliation was delayed until Gruber, who was ordered out of Poland last week, had left Poland. She was detained for 23 hours and interrogated about a roll of film which she had not seen but Polish authorities said contained photos of military installations.

Watt criticizes Indian reservations
WASHINGTON - Interior Secretary James Watt yesterday called Indian reservations "an example of the failure of socialism" where residents are plagued by drug and alcohol abuse, unemployment, divorce and venereal disease.
In an interview to be broadcast today on the Satellite Program Network based in Tulsa, Okla., Watt argued that reservations aggravated major social problems besetting his community and called to "integrate" Indians into American social life.
By United Press International
"I try to liberate them and get squashed by the liberal Democrats in the House of Representatives," said Watt, whose department includes the Bureau of Indian Affairs, which supervises the nation's 50 million acres of reservations.
WATT CONTENDED that the 1.4 million Indians who lived on reservations maintained by the federal government intervened overwhelming social problems.
"If you want an example of the failure of socialism, don't go to Russia — come to America and go to the Indian reservations," he said.
"Every social problem is exaggerated because of socialistic government policies on the Indian reservation," Watt said.
Watt's spokesman, Douglas Baldwin, said it would be "totally untrue" to characterize Watt's remarks as meaning he endorsed abolishment of Indian reservations or believed Indians would be better off without them.
'What Watt did in this
interview ... He was critical of the educational system and the oppressive governmental system on the reservation. No secretary of the interior would ever call at this time for abolition of the system." Baldwin said.
indians, Watt said, have been "trained through 100 years of government oppression to look to the government as the creator, as the provider, as the supplier, and have not been trained to use the initiative to integrate into the American system."
THE INTERIOR secretary said, "If we had treated the black in America like we're now treating the Indians ... it would be a revolution that would wreck the country on."
would tie the county up
"But Congress tolerates the abusive government actions on Indians," he charged.
Indian reservations were created by congressional action and in formal treaties between the federal government and various tribes, and cannot be eliminated by administrative action.
Watt's argument revives a controversy most recently discussed during the Eisenhower administration, in the 1950s.
A 1981 report by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights said that federal Indian policy during the 1950s "was a three-pronged program involving the terms of tribes over which federal responsibility was thought unnecessary."
The policy also included "the transfer of federal responsibility and jurisdiction to state governments, and the physical relocation of Indian people from reservations to urban areas," the commission said.
Arsonist loses right to play video game
By United Press International
GRIFFIN, Ga. — A Pac-Man enthusiast who set fire to what was to have been his new home partly because he did not want to move away from his favorite arcade was banned by a judge yesterday from playing video games for 10 years.
Superior Court Judge Ben J. Miller said such games were the downfall of Eric Lewis McGill, 18, of Griffin, who dropped out of school to play Pac-Man.
McGill was convicted of arson last Wednesday in an Aug. 30 fire at a country home where he was to have moved with his aunt and uncle. It was the second time a house on the rural site burned.

"The first time the family talked about moving, the place they considered was burned," said Spalding
No one was injured in either blaze.
PROSECUTORS SAID McGill set fire to the house, which his aunt and uncle had planned to rent, so he would not have to leave Griffin, the video game room and his friends.

Witnesses testified McGill bought matches before taking a taxicab to and from the scene. The fire was set with some type of flammable liquid, officials said.
in sentencing the youth, Miller ordered him to pay for the damages and seek counseling at a local mental health center.

Miller also placed McGill on probation for 10 years, during which he is not allowed to play video games.
