Humanitarian aid for contras OK'd
House shows support for truce, talks
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The House overwhelmingly approved yesterday a $48 million package of humanitarian aid for the contrasts in Nicaragua and for children injured in seven years of civil war.
The aid bill, passed on a 345-70 vote, was portrayed as a gesture of U.S. support for a temporary truce reached last week between the rebels and the Sandinista government and for continued talks aimed at achieving a long-term end to hostilities.
"The hope is that this will lead to political instead of military processes now taking over" in Nicaragua, said House Majority Leader Thomas Foley.
"This war is over, whether some like it or not," said Rep. Leon Panetta, D-Calif.
White House spokesman Martin Flitzwater said after the House vote,
"We are pleased and look forward to the vote tomorrow in the Senate."
Despite producing the first strong bipartisan vote on U.S. policy toward Nicaragua in more than five years, lawmakers showed more weariness than joy as they plodded through two hours of debate.
"It is not the magic key to facilitate a cease-fire in place or fruitful negotiations and all the rest," said Minority Leader Robert Michel, who said it had become clear Congress no longer was inclined to grant the military aid he would prefer. "But for the moment it's the only thing we have to give."
Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd promised speedy consideration on the other side of the Capitol, although it was unclear whether the matter could come to a vote today. GOP lawmakers said President Reagan had indicated strong support for the measure.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua — A contra radio station reported yesterday that the U.S.-backed rebels had attacked Sandinista soldiers, violating a truce days before a formal 60-day cease-fire was to go into effect.
An agreement signed last week by the leftist Sandinista government and the contrais called for the ceasefire in an effort to end more than six years of war.
