IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press reports Ex-Reagan aide gets immunity WASHINGTON - The Senate panel investigating the Iran-Contra affair voted yesterday to grant limited immunity to President Reagan's former national security adviser, Rear Adm. John Poindexter, opening the way for him to break his silence. Poindexter, one of the key figures in the affair, resigned as Reagan's national security adviser last Nov. 25 after Attorney General Edwin Meese disclosed that profits from secret arms sales to Iran had been diverted to help the Nicaraguan rebels. Because Poindexter, in his job, had been seeing Reagan each day, he has been regarded as the prime witness concerning what the president may or may not have known of the apparent diversion of the money. Reagan approves sales to Iran WASHINGTON - President Reagan's National Security Council has approved the sale of a $900,000 computer system to Iran, industry and administration officials said yesterday. The approval represents the first major U.S. transaction involving Iran since disclosures in late 1986 that the administration had been. secretly selling arms to Iran. Analysts suggested the move underscored a growing sensitivity on the part of the Reagan administration to problems faced by U.S. manufacturers of high-technology goods as they seek to compete in overseas markets. The NSC had been asked to referee a high-level dispute within the administration over the sale. Reagan will not lift Japan trade sanctions, official says WASHINGTON - A high-level Japanese emissary asked President Reagan yesterday to lift trade sanctions against Japan, but Reagan's chief spokesman said action is unlikely before Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone's visit next week. Former Japanese Foreign Minister Shintaro Abe said that during . 20-minute meeting with the president, he "mentioned the semiconductor sanctions issue and emphasized that this measure should be lifted as quicly as possible." White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater, however, said, "It seems unlikely to us that we will be able to make a change in the sanctions before the prime minister's visit." Sri Lanka car bomb kills 150' COLOMBO, Sri Lanka - A car bomb at rush hour created an inferno at the main bus terminal yesterday that officials said killed up to 150 people, bringing the death toll from terrorism in five days to nearly 300. A Health Ministry official said about 200 people were injured and some might die of burns or other wounds. Many of the victims burned to death or were killed by smoke inhalation in six parked buses that were engulfed in flames, police and witnesses said. The bombing was the third attack since Friday on this island south of India, where Tamil insurgents have waged a four-year war against the majority Sinhalese for an independent nation. Tamils killed at least 142 people in northeastern Sri Lanka Friday and Monday. Witnesses said many of the injured at the bus terminal had severe buTs.
