New names for Soviet Union proposed in Kremlin debate
Three new names were proposed yesterday for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, including two that do away with the word "Soviet."
In a parliamentary debate on the union treaty that is being drawn up between the Kremlin and the 15 Soviet republics, these names were proposed: the Union of Sovereign Socialist States; the Union of Soviet Sovereign Republics; and the Union of Euro-Asian Republics.

Bush calls for swift action on German unification treaty
At a ceremony in the Rose Garden, Bush called the agreement "the culmination of more than four decades of Western resolve and determination, from the darkest hours of the Cold War to the bright new horizons that stretch before us."
The accord formally relinquishes all rights and responsibilities over Germany by the four victorious allies in World War II. It was signed in Moscow on Sept. 12 by officials from the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France.

Senate ratifies 2 treaties that limit nuclear testing
WASHINGTON The Senate yesterday decreed that Soviet forces treaties drafted during the depths of the Cold War.

The treaties, which limit underground explosions to 150 kilotons or less, were drafted during the Nixon and Ford administrations but were held up by Congress about whether they could adequately be verified
Those doubts were largely erased by a new set of verification rules agreed to by Bush and Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev on June 1 during their Washington summit meeting. The verification rules, in many ways, are more important than the testing limits imposed by the treaty.
The treaties lag far behind current arms control reality, which contemplates massive reductions in the U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals and sharp cuts in conventional forces.
But the verification procedures, which provide for on-site inspection teams fielded by both sides, may become important precedents for more ambitious treaties to come, supporters said.
The treaties, intended as a first step toward slowing the race to develop ever-larger nuclear capacity, are in effect.
The Carter administration wanted a comprehensive test ban rather than a limitation. The Reagan administration held them up because it believed the United States would be unable to verify Soviet compliance, and charged that Moscow had violated the ceiling on at least two dozen occasions.
The TTBT puts a ceiling of 150 kilotons on the size of weapons tests and provides detailed procedures to ensure that the other side can accurately measure yields.
The PNET places identical limits on nuclear blasts for peaceful purposes, such as seismic exploration or excavation. The United States has banned nuclear explosives in 1973, and the Soviets ceased such blasts in 1988.
Amnesty International and a coalition of other human rights, labor and Chinese student groups want normal trade status suspended because of their allegations of Tiananmen Square demonstrators in June 1989.

"So what if the president vetoes this resolution and Congress fails to override him," said Rep. Richard Schulze, R-Pa. "At least the Chinese government will understand that the ground it set out for an international consensus is, at best, extremely shaky. A conditional bill you just won't get this message across."

human rights and diplomatic issues.

The vote effectively allows the measure to be matched against a bill the committee endorsed in July that would maintain low tariffs on Chinese imports another year but condition them after that to "significant progress" by Beijing on human rights issues.
House expects showdown on trade status of China
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Plans were laid yesterday for a showdown in the House on whether to allow China to export billions of dollars in toys and games, which would violate international rules despite Beijing's alleged human rights abuses.
The House Ways and Means Committee, after a voice vote without dissent but contrary to the views of most of its members, sent to the full House a measure that would undo President Bush's decision to continue China's "most-favored nation" trade status.
