Shultz optimistic about proposal to limit medium-range missiles
BEJIING, China — Secretary of State George Shultz yesterday welcomed Moscow's new proposal to limit medium-rank nuclear missiles and hinted that he was prepared to meet with Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze to "move things forward."
Shultz, speaking to reporters after two days of talks with senior Chinese leaders, said he and Shevardnadze had an agreement that the U.S. would go "worthwhile" to discuss, "we'll go out of our way to find the time."
"We'll watch developments," Shultz said of the proposal by
Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev to limit the United States and the Soviet Union to 100 warheads apiece on medium-range missiles. "Of course, I'm anxious, as I'm sure (Shevardnadze) is, to move things forward, if we can."
Those limitations mirror ones discussed at the Iceland summit in October.
Medium-range missiles, now targeted on Europe and, in the case of the Soviet Union, on portions of Asia, would be confined under the agreement to Asia and probably Alaska.
Survivor weeps in 'Ivan' trial testimony
JERUSALEM — A survivor of Nazi Germany's Trebblake death camp wep hysterically yesterday, recalling the "cruel and inhuman" guards who beat and tortured thousands of naked Jews before herding them into the gas chambers.
Israeli Josef Czarney wailed uncontrollably several times when he testified in the war crimes trial of John Demanjuk, accused of being a murderous Treblinka guard known as "Ivan the Terrible."
Czarney, a small man with wiry
gray hair, is the third former Trebinka inmate to appear on the witnesses stand. He repeatedly lost his composure as he described how his family was killed in the Nazi campaign to wipe out the Jews in wartime Poland.
Demjanjuk, a Ukrainian who moved to the United States after the war, faces death by hanging if the three-judge Israeli court determines that he is the guard who ran Treblinka's gas chambers, where more than 850,000 Jews were killed.

Supreme Court gives help to AIDS victims
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court gave AIDS sufferers battling fear and discrimination a victory yesterday, by ruling that people with contagious diseases might be considered handicapped and, therefore, protected by federal law.
The court, on a 7-2 vote, said Gene Arline, a Nassau County, Fla., third-grade teacher who suffered from tuberculosis, could be considered disabled under the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
Justice William Brennan, speaking for the majority, said the law defines handicap as a "physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of such person's major life activities.
The ruling, though not specifically addressing the deadly acquired immune deficiency syndrome, is seen as a decision that could bring AIDS sufferers under its protection.

Poindexter takes a demotion for Iran affair
WASHINGTON — John Poindexter, who resigned as President Reagan's national security adviser over his central role in the Iran arms affair, lost a star yesterday but will remain on active duty in the Navy as a rear admiral.
Poindexter, 50, accepted demotion from vice admiral rather than
retire after 29 years in the service, in a step down the career ladder that Navy Secretary John Lehman said "was entirely his decision."
The admiral, who now holds a two-star rank, will be assigned to the long-range planning staff of the Air Force and operations. Adm. Carlisle Trost.
