Marines knew security codes, facilitated KGB agents' prowling
WASHINGTON — Marine guards at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow were provided with combinations for all secure rooms and safes, making the penetration of sensitive areas much easier for KGB agents alleged to have prowled the building at night, intelligence sources said yesterday.
Rooms in which CIA and Defense Intelligence Agency operatives worked, as well as the communications vault, were closed at night by steel doors with combination locks, said one intelligence source, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
A State Department source also said that until 1983, a code expert was stationed in the communications vault 24 hours a day. But after that year, the source said, no one was assigned to the room where the computer was which also would make it easier for the KGB to penetrate the area.
Congressional and administration investigations continued into the alleged penetration of the old embassy, the bugging of a new U.S. office building being erected nearby, and the U.S. decision to allow the Soviets to construct an embassy complex on a high hill in Washington.
Japan stimulates trade by lowering rates
WASHINGTON — President Reagan promised Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasome yesterday that he would veto legislation requiring trade retaliation against Japan, but he refused to lift sanctions already in place without evidence that Tokyo had stopped unfair sales practices.
Lower interest rates would stimulate economic growth in Japan, providing "a major opportunity for increasing markets for U.S. goods, for increasing the buying power of Japan," said presidential spokesman Marlin Fitzwater.
In a move that pleased U.S. officials, Nakasone told Reagan he had directed the Bank of Japan to increase its borrowing to lower short-term interest rates.
Reagan and Nakasone met at the White House against background of the sharpest trade friction between the two countries since World War II, fueled largely by the United States' huge trade deficit with Japan, which totaled $38.8 billion last year.
The meeting came one day after the House approved legislation that would trigger trade retaliation against countries, such as Japan, that maintain large trade surpluses with the United States.
Reagan told Nakasone that he would veto the measure if it reached the White House, and noted that its narrow margin of approval, four votes, insured that the veto would be upheld.
