Rich, poor nations set for summit
From AP and UPI
CANCUN, Mexico -Leaders of
developing countries, early arrivals for
the international summit on rich and.
poor nations, expressed hope yesterday
that President Reagan can be
"educated" on their countries'needs.
"The whole purpose of this extraor-
dinary meeting boils down to one thing,
the education of Ronald Reagan," said
a Third World diplomat who asked not
to be identified.
HE SAID Reagan's political
background, in domestic rather than in-
ternational politics, perhaps prevented
the American president from getting a
close look at the problems of poor coun-
tries.
"This is a unique opportunity to
acquaint him with our problems," said
the diplomat, whose comments were
representative of the remarks made by
the heads of state arriving at this
Yucatan Peninsula resort.
"He goes to Cancun with an agenda of
his own on what is the best way of
achieving economic growth,"
Secretary of State Alexander Haig told
reporters.
THE UNIQUE one-time meeting will
bring together the leaders of two-thirds
of the world's population who control
three-fourths of the world's wealth;
Haig said.
"There will be rich and poor, new and
old, capitalists and socialists and
Marxists," he said.
French President Francois Mit-
terrand and other. world leaders con-
tend that the rich countries must be
prepared for massive transfer of
wealth to aid developing nations.
"WE KNOW there are differences,
but we're going with a share of op-
timism," said Treasury Secretary
Donald Regan.
The president told the World Affairs
Council in Philadelphia last week, "We
know we're walking into a hostile at-
mosphere. We know there will be have
nots wanting to take away from the
haves."
The delegations arriving at this
swank resortcarved out of a Caribbean
coastal jungle offered few specific
comments about their expectations.
But most stressed they were optimistic
that progress would be made in getting
Reagan to understand why they want to
restructure the world's economic
system-which they perceive as being
U.S.-dominated through the Inter-
national Monetary Fund, the U.S. Ex-
port-Import Bank and other in-
stitutions.
"WE ARE OPTIMISTIC because we
wouldn't have come if we didn't think
that our differences will be narrowed,"
said a member of the delegation from
Guayana, a country in the north of
South America.
"We want to see first what happens,
and talk later," said Tanzania's
Minister of Information, Benjamin
Mkapa.
Reagan has emphasized the role of
private enterprise and the free market-
place in improving the economies and
living standards in the Third World
nations, many of which are socialist-
governed.

Reagan pushes Senate
on Saudi arms sale
WASHINGTON (AP) - President
Reagan lobbied more senators yester-
day in uphill effort to head off a Senate.
veto of his $8.5 billion Saudi arms sale,
and Senate Democratic leader Robert
Byrd said he's about ready to say which
way he will vote.
Although Byrd was careful to stop
short of revealing his intentions, he hin-
ted that he might vote in favor of the
sale, a development that could influen-
ce other Democrats now opposed to it.
MEANWHILE, Reagan invited six
more senators, including three
declared opponents, to the White House
for one-on-one talks in his effort to save
the sale of AWACS radar planes and F-
15 jet fighter weaponry.
Byrd accused the president of putting
Congress in a position in which either
veto or approval of the sale may hurt
U.S. interests.
"In either case, I think the U.S. in-
terest probably will be impaired to
some degree," Byrd said. "I don't
think the sale should have gotten this
far.
"BUT IT DID get this far and now
we've got to make a decision," he said.
Later, Senate Republican Leader
Howard Baker and Byrd agreed during
a discussion on the Senate floor to try to
schedule the showdown vote for 5 p.m.
x next Wednesday.
The Senate lineup against the sale is
52-37 with 11 senators undecided, ac-
cording to the latest Associated Press
count.
In the strongest hint yet that he might
vote for the AWACS sale, Byrd said the
matter is not a partisan issue - just as
he said Republican Leader Baker's
vote for former President Carter's
Panama Canal treaty was not partisan
Asked if he now owed a debt to Baker,
Byrd replied, "I owe a debt to my coun-
try."
Byrd has said before that there are
risks either way on the AWACS issue -
that a veto of the sale would jeopardize
U.S. -Saudi relations, but that approval
would risk compromise of secret
AWACS technology.
Harshly criticizing Reagan's han-
dling of the sale, Byrd said last week,
"I've never seen anything more badly
botched than this one."
The house voted against the sale 301-
111 last week but it goes through unless
the Senate also rejects it.
A Senate leadership source who did
not want to be indentified by name said
consideration is being given to Reagan
visiting the Capitol the day before the
vote to appeal to Republican senators
for support.
