News Briefs From United Press International Salvadoran Democrats accuse opponents of fraud
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador—The U.S.-backed Christian Democrats accused their opponents of fraud in elections that gave absolute control of El Salvador's new assembly to five right-wing parties, doubling American hopes of a moderate government in the battle-tern corner.
The Christian Democrats conceded, however, that whatever fraud was committed did not affect the outcome of the final election tally.
Final though still unofficial return from Sunday's election gave only 24 of the new constituent assembly's 60 seats to President Jose Napoleon Duarte's
Five right-wing parties led by the National Republic Alliance of Roberto D'Abuisson together captured 36 seats, giving them control of the government if they can negotiate a coalition.
The five parties have already announced their intention to do that, and their determination to exclude the Christian Democrat and reject the social-democratic opposition.
In Washington, President Reagan hailed the turnout of 1.2 million voters, twice as large as officials had expected, as evidence that Salvadorans are growing more independent.
White House officials refused to discuss American policy in the likely event the five extreme right-wing parties out the moderate Christian left.
Officials have expressed concern that the United States might be forced to halt aid to El Salvador if the next government is headed by D'Abuisson, who has been linked to right-wing death squads and was described by former U.S. Ambassador Robert White as a "pathological killer."
Brezhnev hospitalized in Moscow
MOSCOW- President Leonid Brezhny, in failing health at 75, has been hospitalized in Moscow. Soviet sources said yesterday.
However, foreign ministry spokesman said they had no information about Brechev's condition and they declined to confirm or deny his resignation.
But an indication that Brezhnev had been hospitalized came when uniformed Soviet militiamen barred all traffic from entering Granovskovo Street, which runs past the entrance of the hospital reserved for Kremlin leaders.
In Washington, the State Department said it was "aware of rumors and reports" of Brizhnez's hospitalization but was unable to coefect or deny
Army suspects wind foiled airdrop
FORT IRWIN, Calif. The Army is investigating the possibility that unexpected winds caused the deaths of four paratroopers and injured scores more during a massive training jump over California's Mojave desert, a spokesman said yesterday.
several members of the 82nd Airborne Division injured in the jump said earlier that gwings仕灾 at one of the five drop sites had been severe.
Mai.Jake Dye, a spokesman for the 82nd Airborne, said it was possible the men were trapped by a pocket of high ground winds that blew across nearby mountains.
Despite the four deaths and 156 injuries that occurred in the Tuesday morning jump, the 82nd Airborne proceeded with its training exercise. The drop was the largest in the country since World War II and was designed to test the effectiveness of the rapid deployment force.
Senate bill averts partial shutdown
WASHINGTON-THE Senate, after killing a move to repeal a congressional tax break, averted a partial government shutdown yesterday by approving a stopgap funding bill just seven hours before a midnight deadline.
The bill, passed on an 81-18 vote and approved in the House last week, would extend funding at current levels through Sept. 30 for the departments of Labor, Education, Health and Human Services, Treasury, Justice, Commerce and State and several independent agencies.
Any Senate amendments would have all but ended its chances of passage by the midnight deadline because they would have required a Senate-House
Militants take stand on West Bank
Debate on the emergency funding bill was stymied for two days while the Senate discussed repelling a congressional ban on fracking. The Senate voted to reject the ban and a 5-14 vote
YAMIT, Israeli-occupied Sinai - Israeli troops sealed off the occupied Sinai yesterday but militant squatters barricaded themselves inside the town of Yamit for a last stand against the return of the region to Egypt next month.
In Jerusalem, Prime Minister Menachem Begin told British Foreign Secretary陆卡里珊 that European calls for a Palestinian state were a "tried recipe for bloodshed" that Israel would never allow. Begin's spokesman said.
Carrington's meeting with Began capped a busy day of talks with Israeli policymakers. The meeting came in the midst of a new dispute between Israel and Western Europe over criticism of Israeli policies on the occupied West Bank.
A pro-Iraeli Palestinian was injured yesterday by a car bomb on the occupied West Bank as 300 veteran Jewish settlers streamed out of the Sinai, meeting a government deadline to evacuate the desert region.
Mexican volcano erupts; 50 killed
PICHUCALCO, Mexico—A volcano in southeastern Mexico erupted the second time in four days, after an initial eruption on Sunday killed 50 people.
The volcano, Chicou, which has not been active for centuries, exploded Sunday causing the evacuation of 20,000 people from towns on its slope and sloping sides.
Refugees in Pichiculca, who had not eaten for three days, said they did not think they would be able to go back to their village.
House supports drug dispensing bill
TOPEKA-House debate about a measure that would allow registered nurses in family planning clinics to dispense drugs under a pharmacist's supervision splintered off onto the issue of abortion, but still won House endorsement yesterday.
"There's nothing left on the mountain, only stones and ashes," one villager said.
The bill, endorsed on a 73-72 vote, changes a number of pharmacy-related statutes, but largely focuses on the issue of nurses dispensing drugs.
Under the bill, family planning clinics could continue operating as long as there was supervision by a pharmacist, who would not have to be at the clinic.
During debate on the bill, State Rep. Lloyd Polson, R-Vermont, said that although the family planning clinics do not perform abortions, they have to take a different approach.
After Polson's comments, State Rep. Rochelle Chronister, R-Nedoshea, who was leading the discussion on the bill, said the measure had nothing to do with the vote.
Correction
The Kanan yesterday reported that the Oread Neighborhood Association received $15,008 more than other groups in federal grant funds at the city commission meeting. Actually the Community Development Block Grant Funds the association received totaled $15,008.
Reagan supports limits on arms
WASHINGTON-President Reagan threw his weight behind a Senate proposal for a mutual and verifiable freeze on nuclear weapons, declaring it his aim to end the race for "monstrous, inhumane weapons."
By United Press International
Reagan, holding his ninth news conference of his administration and the first broadcast in prime time, issued a statement with remarks on the subject of arms control.
The Reagan administration opened talks with the Soviets in Geneva in November on limiting intermediate nuclear missiles in Europe, but strategic arms negotiations have been in abeyance since the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan scuttled any chance for ratification of the Carter administration's Salt II treaty with Russia.
"My goal is to reduce nuclear weapons dramatically, ensuring peace and security," he said.
Reagan commanded a resolution sponsored by Sens. John Warner, R-Va., and Henry Jackson, D-Wash, and William Carney, R-N-Y, that proposed negotiation now and mutual verifiable cutbacks later.
consistent with the goals of the administration.
ITS ELEMENTS, Reagan said, are
He also ruled out the immediate freeze in superpower arsenals proposed in a more radical resolution sponsored by the Senate and Oxfex, and Edward Kennedy, D-Mass.
"The truth of the matter is, on balance the Soviet Union does have a definite margin of superiority, enough so there is risk, and what I have called, as you all know, several times, 'a window of vulnerability.'"
"I think a freeze now would not only be disadvantageous—in fact dangerous to use with them in that position—but I
believe it would also militate against any negotiations for reductions. There would be no incentive to meet with us and reduce arsenals."
In other highlights of the news conference, Reagan said the United States and its allies were working on a cutoff of credit to both Poland and the Soviet Union, but would reject the plan if the Polish crisis eased.
Reagan also reaffirmed his conviction that the only way out of the current high unemployment problem was to stick with his recovery plan. He insisted he would not go with "quick fix" plans that increased inflation.
Senate doesn't follow yellow brick road
By KEVIN HELLIKER Staff Reporter
TOPEKA-A proposal to name a highway in Kansas the "Yellow Brick Road" died yesterday in a Senate committee that questioned linking Kansas to the movie, "The Wizard of Oz."
Saying the movie depicted Kansas as a "tornado alley," members of the Senate Labor, Industry and Tourism Committee voted against any further association of Kansas with the Land of Oz.
In 1800, Gov. John Carlin designated Liberal, in southwest Kansas, as the location of the Gateway to the "Land ofAh's" and Ox and as the location of the house of Dorothy, the main character in the movie.
"I get very tired of people from out of state asking me if my dog is named Toto," said State Sen. Jane Eldredge, R-Lawrence.
State Sen. Paul Burke, R-Leeway,
said that the movie not only influenced
people's attitudes toward Kansas, but it
did so adversely.

"People view Kansas by what they see on TV-cowboys, Indians and Dorothy坏地 by a tornado to the Land of Ox$_2$." he said.
Frey said tourists from all over the country drove to Liberal to see a model of Dorothy's house, built after Carlin's designation of the city as Dorothy's
LETTERHEAD
But House Majority Leader Robert Frey, R-Liberal, who sponsored the house-backed proposal, said the federal banas as the Land of Oz (integrated people).
Advising the committee not to act as "hard-nosed legislators" when considering tourism bills, Frey said imagination was needed to appreciate the intricacies of a city designated the entire length of U.S. 54 in Kansas as the "Yellow Brick Road."
WHEN TOLD that the book, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" illustrated Mr. Marsh, asked Frey'ses, "I don't think those little technical aspects make any difference.

road signs for U.S. 54, Frey said. The signs probably would have been posted by private businesses along the highway.
But according to Cathy Kruzic, director of the recently-established state division of tourism, the situation hardly could be better.
But Burke said, "The state has already spent thousands and thousands of dollars on the promotion of Kansas as the Land of Ox. I don't want to be a party to making this any worse than it is."
requests for brochures and bumper stickers displaying the Oz theme.

RESPONSE TO THE promotion of Kansas as the Land of Oz has been considerable, Kruzic said. Her department barely can keep up with
This year, the division's budget is $120,000 for printing these promotional items, she said.
Some of the criticism from legislators yesterday centered on whether Kansas should "trump up" promotional gummies when attractions such as the Eisenhower Library, Ablene, and the University of Kansas already existed.
Even the landscape of Kansas could be promoted, Eldredge said.
"There is something breathtaking about a field of golden wheat blowing in the wind," she said. "I never saw that until I came to Kansas."
