The U.S. attorney in San Francisco, meanwhile, said any doubts over Walker's truthfulness won't jeopardize the conviction of Jerry Alfred Whitworth, the former Navy communications specialist who was part of the Walker network. BASED ON lie detector examinations, federal law enforcement and intelligence officials are questioning whether Walker answered accurately when asked about the size and origins of the spy ring, said federal law enforcement officials, speaking on condition that they not be identified. The Walker operation supplied the Soviet Union with information which could be used to break coded messages of the U.S. Navy. The Justice Department will not shelve the plea bargaining agreement, said John Russell, a spokesman for the department's criminal division. "OUR procedures on this have been very carefully thought out," said Russell. "We're not going back on the agreement." U.S. authorities are debriefing Walker and have moved back his sentencing date more than a month to Oct. 3, saying they need more time to interview him. The unidentified officials say they question whether Walker has told the truth about the number of participants involved in the spying and whether Walker's brother, retired Navy Lt. Arthur Walker, supplied information to the Soviets during his naval career, as well as after he left the military. Officials said they would continue their investigation. MEANWHILE, U.S. Attorney Joseph Russoniello, whose San Francisco office handled the Whitworth trial, said that "I see no basis where what's going on in debriefing Walker could affect the Whitworth case." Whitworth is the former Navy communications specialist who met Walker two to four times a year from 1976 to 1985, supplying him with film of the material needed to break the Navy's coded messages. He was sentenced last month to 365 years in prison for espionage. Walker was a government witness at Whitworth's trial. The prosecutor said Walker's ' credibility was fully explored" at the trial.

She expressed concern that the assassination attempt would serve as a "cloak for certain kinds of action," such as arrests of opposition leaders, by the Pinochet regime.

The state of seige eliminates the possibility of judicial review of government action, which the non-violent opposition has attempted to use with limited success in the past. THE PINOCHET REGIME "does pretty much what it wants. . . (the assassination attempt) simply gives them more pretext for cracking down," said political science Prof. Daniel Levine. Sociology Prof. Jeff Paige said that Pinochet blocked the means of peaceful change, making "violent change inevitable." University analysts agreed that the rocket attack on Pinoghet was unusual. Accbrdiig toLevine, there has not been such an armed attack in13 years. THE ANALYSTS WERE unsure of the nature of the attackers. They did not know whether the attack was an isolated incident or an attempt by some of the opposition to begin serious armed struggle. According to Levine, however, the main opposition to Pinochet sees armed struggle as hopeless and the attackers, who may be members of the Manuel Rodriguez Patriotic Front, are far to the left of even the Communist Party. Ambushers sought by Chileanarmy (continued from Page 1) Plainclothes police without warrants arrested Ricardo Lagos and German Correa, leaders of branches of the Socialist Party, in pre-dawn raids on their homes, relatives said.

A city hall official said the facade of the ornate building was. "completely blown out." The official spoke on condition of anonymity. Police Chief Jean Paolini said the bomb had been placed "on or under a bench in the post office" on the ground floor of city hall. First reports said that 10 people were injured. The fire department later reduced that to three injured. Two of those were "seriosly injured," said Paolini. The explosion occurred about 7 p.m. Premier Jacques Chirac, who also is mayor of the capital, interrupted a meeting of his internal security council at the premier's office to go to the scene of the explosion. With him was; Robert Pandraud, minister for security Moscow paper makes more accusations against Daniloff MOSCOW--- The newspaper Izvestia on Monday accused Nicholas Daniloff of using a journalist's cover to ferret out military secrets about Afghanistan and claimed the American reporter worked with an alleged CIA agent in Moscow. The government newspaper said the imprisoned correspondent for U.S. News & World Report was charged by a military prosecutor with espionage under a law that imposes penalties ranging from seven years in prison to death. The article elaborated on accusations already made against Daniloff and expanded the charges against the reporter beyond the scope of the original claim that he received secret documents during what was described as a secret meeting with a Soviet in a Moscow park. TV producer denies charges DETROIT - A television producer was just doing his job when he promised to protect the anonymity of teen-aged gang members, and jailing him for withholding videotapes from a grand jury would set a dangerous precedent, his lawyer said Monday. "What is at stake here is simply more than just a reporter," said Henry Saad, attorney for Bradley Stone. "The free flow of information in the country and this state in particular is at stake." Wayne County Circuit Judge William Giovan cited Stone for comtempt of court in March and ordered the producer for Defroit's WJBK-TV to jail if he refused to turn over the tapes to the grand jury investigating the death of a Michigan State Police trooper. U.S. District Judge Richard F. Suhrheinrich said he would rule Tuesday on whether to stay the contempt citation. A hearing has been scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday before Giovan to determine whether Stone would be jailed. Yugoslav captain leaves U.S. DETROIT- The United States cannot request extradition of a Yugoslavian freighter captain charged in the death of two Lake Michigan fishermen, a federal spokesman said yesterday. Seman Franko, who was heading back to Yugoslavia yesterday after being served warrants charging two counts of negligent homicide, cannot be extradited under a 1901 treaty between the United States and Serbia, said a Department of State spokesman who refused identification. Serbia became a republic of Yugoslavia in 1945. Franko was handed the warrants Sunday morning by Charlevoix County Sheriff George Lasater while the 620-foot freighter, the Jablanica, was docked at the Soo Locks in Sault Ste. Marie. Franko posted $4,000 bond and left for Yugoslavia, Lasater said. The Jablanica struck or swamped a fishing boat with three men aboard Aug. 20 near Whiskey Island, about 45 miles northwest of Charlevoix. The accident sank the 40-foot Razel Brothers fishing tug. Two crewmen drowned; a third body has been found but not positively identified. Niles' teachers end strike Niles' teachers ended a six-day strike yesterday while almost 1,000 teachers in four other Michigan school districts continued walkouts, idling more than 19,000 students, officials said. Bargainers for 265 Niles teachers reached a tentative agreement during three hours of unscheduled negotiations Sunday night, said Jeneen Conway, president of the Niles Education Association. Teachers reported to a preparation day yesterday and the district's 4,600 students would report to classes today, she said. The first day of classes had been scheduled Sept. 2. The teachers are to vote today on the tentative agreement, Conway said. Meanwhile, Port Huron's request for a back-to-work order is to be heard today in St. Clair County Circuit Court. Port Huron, Cass City and Mount Clemens teachers continued strikes yesterday that started Sept. 2. Harbor Beach teachers continued a strike that started Aug. 26.
