in solving the political problems in the Middle East and the economic situation in Central and South America.
He said that the optimism over a possible break in the stalemate in Middle East relations earlier this year had evaporated and that no resolution was in sight.
Lugar said he hoped that Hussein, Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak and Israel Prime Minister Shimon Peres would soon begin negotiating to bring an end to hostilities in the region.
"We had hoped that when Jordan's King Hussein came to the United States in June, that he would announce that the acts of war were over. He never said that," Lugar said. "That has been one of the agonizing processes."
The negotiations, he said, should include representatives of the Palestinian people but that the Palestine Liberation Organization and its chairman, Yasir Arafat, would be unwelcome.
WICHITA — Gates Learjet Corp. may decide this week the winner of a high stakes duel it triggered with the announcement that manufacturing operations would be consolidated in either Tucson, Ariz., or Wichita
Cities fight over jet site
The Associated Press
Both cities stand to gain or lose hundreds of Learjet jobs and hundreds of others caused by the multiplier effect of new jobs. The company's 1984 payroll was $33.7 million in Wichita and $34.9 million in Tucson.
"This is a simple matter," said Bob Brown, Wichita mayor. "Wichita either has 1,100 empty dinner buckets or 1,100 of the kind you like — when you open them they've got a boiled egg and a sandwich in them."
Learjet sent the cities scrambling to develop incentive plans. Oct 23 when it announced the consolidation as a cost-cutting move. Like other small plane manufacturers, the business jet builder has been suffering through a sales downturn since 1980 when companies began sharply
curtailing purchases of big-ticket items.
Production has dropped from 12 jets a month in 1982 to fewer than two per month. The company lost $10.6 million on sales of $406.6 million in 1984.
Learjet employs 1,135 people in Wichita and 815 in Tuscon, but it won't say how many of those are manufacturing jobs. So far, the company is talking about moving only its manufacturing operations. The machinists union represents 550 non-supervisory manufacturing workers in Wichita. The company estimated 600 manufacturing jobs at Learjet in Tuscon and about 200 marketing and administrative employees.
The company is seeking about 250,000 square feet in additional manufacturing space and wants to make its move during its traditional holiday shutdown period in December. One goal of consolidation is to eliminate some manufacturing jobs.
