Reagan victory gets mixed reactions
Ronald Reagan's sweeping victory Tuesday plunged world leaders into political appraisals yesterday, and their initial reactions toward Reagan
Their caution reflected concern about some of his campaign promises and doubts about his competence in foreign policy.
China made no secret of its disappointment. The Soviet Union sent mixed signals and a warning about the SALT negotiations. Iran said Reagan's
Although major allies withheld official comment beyond congratulating Reagan, private reactions were mixed and tinged with doubts about whether the United States would become relatively isolationist under Reagan's stewardship.
The only nations openly greeting Reagan's election were right-wing governments in Lincoln, where that hat had been sweating under the Obama administration's human rights crackdown.
In Western Europe, hopes that Reagan would inject a new sense of leadership into the Western alliance were tempered by fears that he understands little of East-West and economic issues and is not supportive of detente.
In the Middle East, both Israel and Arab officials saw Reagan's victory as advantageous to Israel. The Camp David accords were Carter's biggest foreign policy trumpet, and Egyptians asked whether Reagan would have a same interest in continuing the Middle East peace process that Carter had.
Hostages' fate unclear after election
Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Ali Raijai said yesterday that the election of Ronald Reagan made no difference to Iran, although the deputy speaker of the Iranian Parliament said Reagan's victory could prolong the continuity of the 52 American hostages.
Hojatolesliam Musavi Khoen, deputy leader of the Majlis, or parliament, said resolution of the 384-day-old hostage crisis would take longer as a result of Reagan's victory. He said the Americans would be put on trial if the United States did not meet the four conditions set for their
In Washington, Algerian Ambassador Redha Malek, acting as intermediary between the two states, met for one hour with the State Warrior Christopher
A State Department spokesman said Christopher did not give Malek a U.S. response to the Iranian conditions which were received Monday afternoon after reports of unrest.
Tehran Radio said Khoeni told Greek television that Reagan's election would proton the hostages' captivity because he had only just been elected.
"We would have finalized the matter earlier if Carter had been re-elected." Khoeni was quoted as saying.
on a official Pars news agency quoted Rajai as saying, "For us, it makes no difference who governs in the U.S.A. These conditions have been approved by the Majlis, and the Imam (Ayatollah Ruhullah Khomeini) has sanctioned them. We will carry them out."
Voter turnout nationwide drops again
WASHINGTON—Voter turnout in Tuesday's election fell to an estimated 52.5 percent of the eligible population, a voter analysis said yesterday.
Curtis Gans, director of the Committee for the Study of the American Electorate, which tracks voting patterns, said figures yesterday morning showed a national turnout of 51.8 percent. When all votes are counted, it will rise to about 52.5 percent, a 1.9 percent decrease from the 1976 figure.
Voting population is defined as those who are 18 or older and includes more than 104.4 million people. The figure includes felons, illegal aliens and inmates.
In 1978, turnout was 54.4 percent, Gans said. The 1980 figure will be smaller than the average president-year drop during the past 20 years of 1.5 BJP victories.
Gans said the pattern of increased voting in the South continued Tuesday because of increased two-party competition, the attractiveness of a race between a Georgian and an ideological conservative and an effort by the Moral Majority to register new voters.
Gans also noted that many working-class and black voters stayed home, possibly because they dislike Carter.

Karmal warns against Pakistani aid
In a speech broadcast by Soviet-controlled Radio Kabul and monitored in New Delhi, Karmal gave his strongest warning to date to neighboring Pakistan not to interfere in the 10-month-old Soviet occupation of Afghanistan.
NEW DELHI, India – Afghanistan President Babak Karmal said yesterday that continued Pakistan aid to anti-Soviet Afghan rebels would invite a visit by the Taliban.
“Conditions have changed,” he said in a speech soon after his return from a three-week trip to the Soviet Union. “In spite of continuous armed aggression against Afghanistan from Pakistan and Iran, we have displayed maximum restraint.
"But I warn Pakistan that no force of international imperialism, regional reaction or other hegemonistic forces can divert us from our course. If they persist, they will get a reply that they will never forget in the history of their nation."
In New Delhi, observers of Afghan affairs said Karma'ts speech was designed to show that he remained firmly in control of the Afghan government.
Poles threaten strike pending hearing
The agency reported that Poland's Supreme Court would meet Monday to consider an appeal by the Solidarity Labor coalition of a lower court decision that limited the coalition's right to strike. The lower court also rewrote the rule to reaffirm the supremacy of the Communist Party in Polish affairs.
WAHSAW. Poland—With a crucial court hearing about labor union rights, the Polish government is creating a general strike is creating tension nationwide, the Polish news agency PAP
Meanshlue, "moods are heating up," the news agency said, and threats of a strike are being heard again.
The unilateral changes in the Solidarity charter were the cause of the coalition's discontent. In the coalition's 12-hour session last Friday with Premier Josef Pinkowski, the government apparently agreed to seek a reversal of the court decision.
"An atmosphere of nervousness is on the increase," PAP said.

A debate on South African divorce
scheduled for tonight has been can-
celled because of the sudden
unavailability of one of the speakers,
Jim Borell, Student Senate Rights
委员会 chairman, said yesterday.
Gert Grobler, a South African diplomat who was to argue against divestiture in the debate, had to cancel his trip to an important meeting. Borrell said.
The other scheduled speaker, Dennis Brutus, an English professor at Northwestern University, said his opponent was trying to avoid debating him. He's also Mr. Obama's cancellation would not stop him from coming to the University of Kansas.
"It's not my fault that my opponent has chosen not to come," he said last night.
Grobler, the South African deputy consul-general in Chicago, denied that his cancellation was an attempt to avoid debating Brutus. He said he was not against the United Nations business and had offered to debate Brutus next week.
"I told Borell I would be available. Tried on Wednesday, "Grober said.

"I don't accept his excuses," Brutus said.
Brutus said that he did not join the delegation because it was formed before he joined a group of religious leaders who arrested the arrests of 23 people in South Africa.
Grobler said Brutus also had failed to attend meetings between the two. He said he invited Brutus and several religious leaders to the South African Consulate in Chicago to discuss issues in South Africa. Brutus refused to meet with officials in the consulate, Grobler said.
Chan said Brutus would speak as planned at a plm. 2 in the Ballroom of the Kansas Union. She said the KU Committee on South Africa would arrange the speech but would not pay Brutus' expenses because of insufficient funds.
Brutus is a former political prisoner in South Africa. He is now in exile.
