AT&T to slash interstate rates Reagan. praises compromise over war powers act (Continued from Page 1) Shultz, testifying before the House Foreign Affairs Committee, urge Congress to approve the compromise resolution unchanged. "He argued that the debate over the War Powers Act had been "disturbing" in threatening to undermine U.S. policy in Lebanon. "The uncertainty about the American commitment only weakens our effectiveness," he said. "Doubts about our staying power can only cause the aggressors to discount our presence, or to intensify their attacks, in hopes of hastening our departure." DECLARING that the U.S. military role in Lebanon is strictly defensive Shultz said, ".We do not think we are in- volved in a civil war. We are supporting the legitimate government of Lebanon. ... It is basically not our dispute." In Beirut, Druse and Palestinian militiamen tried again yesterday to drive the Lebanese army out of the key mountain town of Souk el-Gharb. But by nightfall, the army and its tiny, agin air force had repulsed the assault, the government radio reported. Capt. Youssef Atrissi, the Lebanese army spokesman, said Druse and Palestinian militiamen mounted a tank and artillery assault after. midday against the ridge-top town overlooking Beirut and the U.S. Marine base at the Beirut airport. ATRISSI SAID Hawker Hunter jets from the Lebanese air force attacked Druse artillery blasting Souk el-Gharb from the nearby town of Aley. He would not say how many of the air force's three operational jet fighters took part in the raid, but AP correspondent Robert R. Reid saw one firing what ap- peared to be missiles at Druse positions. President, Reagan last week authorized U.S. Navy ships to fire in support of the U.S. Marines and other troops of the multinational peacekeeping force and also in support of the Lebanese army when a threat to it also constituted a threat to the Marines. The order underlined the importance placed by the Reagan administration on; the defense of Souk el-Gharb.:Of- ficals in Washington said its loss ould kill the Lebanese army's attempt toex- tend its authority outside Beirut and could threaten the existence of the Gemayel government. The Syrian government newspaper Tishrin accused the United States of heightening its involvement in the war and said this could lead to clashes bet- ween American and Syrian forces. WASHINGTON (AP) - The American Telephone & Telegraph Co. announced yesterday it would ask federal regulators to approve long- distance rate reductions of $1.75 billion a year, the largest cut in telecom- munications history. The company did not spell out a precise schedule for trimming its inter- state rates. But in a filing with the Federal Communications Commission on July 29, AT&T estimated they could be slashed from 10 percent to 15 per- cent. AT&T SAID details of the cutback would be unveiled Oct. 3 when a formal tariff, or rate schedule, is filed with the agency. However, spokesman Pic Wagner said that a reduction in revenues of $1.75 billion "will work out to a reduc- tion in actual rates within that range of 10 percent to 15 percent for the average customer." AT&T's revenues for all interstate services, including regular long- distance calls, WATS service and private business line service, totaled $21.4 billion in 1982, Wagner said. The reduction in revenue being proposed by the company thus amounts to roughly 8.2 percent. IF APPROVED by the FCC, the rate reductions would take effect on Jan. 1, the day on which AT&T is scheduled to be broken apart to comply with an an- titrust settlementWagner said. "Our ability to make our planned reductions in interstate long-distance rates is dependent upon no changes or delays in implementing the FCC's or- der," said Morris Tanenbaum, the chairman of the AT&T division that will provide long-distance service after the breakup. In its access charge decision, the FCC has decreed that starting next year, residential customers will pay $2 a month for the right to use the interstate long-distance network and businesses will pay $6 a month. Those charges are the first part of the agency's plan to eliminate the subsidy for local service that is now built into the interstate rates. Soviet official cals Korean plane downing 'a nistake' /* Complete Computer Center's (Continued from Page 1) conference told him Soviet officials had, in the'closed-door discussions, ex- pressed regret over the incident. Sebastian said the British "have reason to believe that Moscow may even change its position, give a fuller version of events and perhaps even in the future make some gesture of compensation." He did not elaborate. MEANWHILE, the West German Defense Ministry said Soviet jetliners using Frankfurt airport are equipped with hidden cameras to spy on NATO installations.- It was responding to reports on West German television, which showed films Tuesday of an Aeroflot passenger plane with lens-shaped bulges on the fuselage. The TV report said spy cameras could easily photograph the U.S. Air Force's Rhein-Main airbase, which is located across the runway from the commercial airport. Asked to comment, Bonn Defense Ministry spokesman Juergen Reichar- dt said, "yes, that's well known. The en- tire transport capacity of Aeroflot and the eastsbloc airlines also have military uses."~ REICHARDT said Aeroflot jetliners often change course in West German airspace to fly over NATO installations, but he said nothing could be done to prevent this.. Japan said yesterday it would pick up objects and documents retrieved by Soviet ships but that no bodies would be returned. r a jST ANNUAL SALE Terrific bargains on old and new systems: " Apple Hardware Accessories " Apple Monitors " Printers and Plotters " Apple I Software - Games, Business, Etc.
