Grenadians hopeful at airport's opening
By United Press International
POINT SALNES, Grenada — The international airport that President Reagan once charged was being built by Cuba as a military base opened yesterday amid high hopes that the project, financed by the United States, would mean economic prosperity for Grenada.
"This is a momentous day," said Richard Cherman, tourism minister for the interim government, as he presented baskets filled with spices of the first passengers arriving at Point Saline International Airport.
The opening of the airport at Point Salines, on the southern tip of the tiny Caribbean island, came three days after the first anniversary of the 1983 invasion. That invasion led by the United States outmaneuvered the Mackay Islands and assassinated leftist Prime Minister Maurice Bishou and seized power.
AT THE TIME of the invasion, which left 19 Americans dead, Reagan charged that Cuban President Fidel Castro, a friend of Bishop's, was helping build the airport to use as a military base.
Bishop started the airport project in 1980, saving it was to boost tourism.
Grenada has one other international airport, Pearls Airport. But it cannot handle jumbo jets; Port Saline can.
Reagan sent Grenadian authorities a congratulatory message yesterday.
"The dedication of this airport to which the United States and other other countries have been so proud to contribute marks the fulfillment of a Grenadian dream of many years." Reagan said.

- tropical fruits and spices, chiefly nutmeg
The airport is a milestone for Grenada, whose leaders have dreamed for two decades of ports of the island's principal agricultural commodities
CHERMAN SAID THE government hopes the airport, which has received $19 million in U.S. funds since the invasion, will bring enough business to ease the troubled economy.
"Our goals with this airport are to get tourism back on stream, to regain business we lost and to get hotel occupancy levels back up," a smiling Cherman said.

Near the rocket launcher was a note in Hebrew saying the attack was in retaliation for the murders last week of two Jewish students near a monastery in Beit Jala, south of Jerusalem. A Palestinian from the Dehaishe Refugee Camp near Bethlehem was charged with those murders.
