News Briefs Bush and Weinberger denounce Soviets for arrest of journalist
AKRON, Ohio — Vice President George Bush and Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger said Monday that the Soviet Union falsely arrested a U.S. journalist, and the head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said Nicholas Daniolf's detention dimmed prospects for a superpower summit.
Speaking to reporters in Akron as he campaigned for Ohio Republicans, Bush said Daniloff's arrest threatened U.S.-Soviet relations. He stopped short of saying Daniloff's arrest would jeopardize a planned superpower summit.
Weinberger, in Cincinnati to address a convention of the American Legion, said, "It's a trumped-up charge. Anyone who knows Mr. D兰iloff would know he would not do that."
The Soviet KGB arrested Daniloff, Moscow correspondent for U.S. News and World Report magazine, on Saturday and accused him of engaging in espionage. A Soviet friend had handed Daniloff an envelope that he said contained newspaper clippings However, Soviet authorities said the envelope contained top-secret maps.
The Soviets have compared Dainolf's arrest with the Aug 23 arrest in New York City of Gennadi Zakharov, a Soviet employee of the United Nations. Zakharov is charged with spying for allegedly paying an employee of a military subcontractor $1,000 for classified documents about a U.S. Air Force jet engine.
At a Capitol Hill news conference in Washington, Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Ind., chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, told a news conference he was confused about why the Soviets chose to arrest the American correspondent at a time when a the U.S. and Soviets were trying to arrange a summit conference.
HARARE, Zimbabwe — Signs of cracks in the Non-Aligned Movement appeared yesterday when Iran's president attacked Iraq in a speech, and when members quarreled about who would act as host for the next summit.
Discord develops during summit
In opening ceremonies Monday, the 70 delegations attending the Non-Aligned summit appeared in accord. But rifts developed when the first general debates began yesterday.
debates began yesterday. Iranian President Hojjatoleslam Sayayed Ali Khamenei began his address to the members with a condemnation of South Africa's racial segregation policies known as apartheid. Apartheid is a theme of the 25th anniversary summit.
But Khameenie switched to a bitter attack on Iraq, Iran's enemy in the six-year Persian Gulf war.
He charged that "women and children were raped and their bodies thrown into mass graves" by Iraqi forces in an attack on the city of Qatar.
fourth in the order of forces at that point, live television coverage of his speech was cut, and media monitors at the international conference center went blank.
A spokesman for the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Co. said coverage was terminated because there was a misunderstanding about whether the speech would be aired or the session was closed. Zimbabwe television later rebroadcast the speech. Live coverage continued in the afternoon session.
Zimbabwean Prime Minister Robert G. Mugabe, chairman of the movement, turned down a request by Iraq to rebut.

27 workers at Chernobyl fired
MOSCOW — Twenty-seven workers involved in the cleanup of the Chernobyl nuclear facility were fired from their jobs and expelled from the Communist Party for cowardice after refusing to follow orders at the radioactive site. Pravda said yesterday.
Pravda also said radiation levels remained high at Chernobyl, near the Ukrainian capital of Kiev, as a result of the April 26 explosion and fire but said the reactor had ceased emitting new radiation.
The newspaper said that 27 workers were fired and expelled by the local Kiev Communist Party committee, indicating that they were local workers rather than drafters from outside the district.

Judge postpones Donovan trial
NEW YORK — A judge yesterday postponed the trial of former Labor Secretary Raymond Donovan for at least two days so the court can decide whether one of his co-defendants is healthy enough to stand trial on a charge of fraud.
Schiavone suffered a heart attack June 25.
State Supreme Court Justice John Collins set a hearing, for Wednesday when the doctor for Ronald Schiavone, chairman of the Schiavone Construction Co. of Secaucus, N.J., is to testify as to Schiavone's health. Collins said he hoped to proceed with jury selection Thursday.
Donovan, the first sitting Cabinet member ever to be indicted, resigned his post in 1985 to fight the charge Insisting he was innocent, Donovan said he was the victim of an anti-Reagan administration smear organized by Bronx District Attorney Mario Merola.
Prosecutors accused Donovan of establishing a fake minority enterprise in the Bronx in 1979 to quality for a $186 million city subway contract and divert $7.4 million to the New Jersey company for which he was executive vice president.
