Reagan wants embassy in Moscow to be rebuilt
Nation/World
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Reagan recommended yesterday that the new U.S. Embassy in Moscow be razed and rebuilt from the ground up because it is riddled with listening devices that cannot be removed.
"We're going to start and have an American-built one," Reagan said of the embassy.
National security adviser Colin Powell, during an appearance at the National Press Club, said "it will be a very expensive proposition, a very, very difficult task to put up a building in Moscow."
Powell said U.S. officials would have to discuss the situation with Soviet officials and said he was
hopeful something could be worked out "in light of the improving relations with the Soviet Union."
At the State Department, spokesman Charles Redman said Reagan would urge Congress to permit the virtually completed embassy to be demolished and reconstructed with American forces from the United States and stored in Moscow warehouses under the tightest possible security.
The first eavesdropping bugs, in structural elements built by Soviet workers and transported to the site, were discovered by U.S. inspectors in the spring of 1987. The United States and the Soviet Union agreed in 1972 to build new, larger embassies in each other's capital.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The United States should make a deal to free hostages in Lebanon, the sister of captive tainter Terry Anderson said yesserd.
"Send the message to this administration that it is OK to cut a deal." Peggy Say of Cadiz, KY., said at a ceremony marking her brother's a1st
birthday, his fourth in captivity since he was abducted in Beirut on March 16, 1883. "Never has a hostage been without concessions being made."
Anderson, chief Middle East correspondent for The Associated Press, has been held the longest of the 14 foreign hostages in Lebanon.
Whistleblowers' protection to be vetoed
WASHINGTON — Republicans and Democrats cried foul yesterday after President Reagan, despite a written pledge of support from his budget office, said he would veto a bill that would protect federal employees who blow the whistle on government wrongdoing.

The president said he would "pocket veto" the bill, or let it die by refusing to sign it while Congress isn't in session.
part of the Merit Systems Protection Board and has acted against whistleblowers who came to the office for help.
While the budget office pledged support for the bill, Attorney General Dick Thornhurst, whose objections led to the veto decision, said the Justice Department had expressed its concerns about the legislation to Congress "as recently as a week or two ago.
"The constitutional objections that the Department of Justice conveyed to President Reagan had been consistently conveyed to the Congress throughout the course of consideration of this bill," Thornhurst said.
But on Oct. 3, Joseph R. Wright Jr., deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget, wrote to Rep Frank Horton, R-N.Y., and chief House sponsor, Rep Patricia Schroeder, D-Colo.
"I would like to congratulate you on the fine work you have done over the last eight months to develop the 'Whistleblower Protection Act of 1988,'" Wright wrote to Horton. "While this bill does not include everything we wanted, it will significantly improve protection for whistleblowers — a goal which the administration shares with you."
new authorities are significant, and I would like to thank you personally for the repeated efforts you have made in the administration on developing S. 508'.
After citing specific strengths of the bill, Wright concluded. "These
The House and Senate had passed the bill without a dissenting vote following months of negotiations between congressional sponsors and the administration. Disgruntled lawmakers said yesterday they thought the talks had produced a bill satisfactory to the administration.
One federal whistleblower, Nancy Kusen of Pittsburgh, said of Reagan's decision, "I really thought it meant we drove on his part. It makes me sick."
