IN BRIEF
Israelagrees to withdrawal plan
Israel accepted in principle yesterday an agreement to withdraw its forces
from Lebanon in a major triumph for the shuttle diplomacy of Secretary of
State George Shultz.
"This is a milestone," said an ebullient Shultz in Jerusalem after the
Israeli Cabinet decision.
Israeli Cabinet Secretary Dan Meridor, announcing the agreement in
principle after a seven-hour meeting in Jerusalem, said Israel will ask for
clarifications "with regard to several political and security issues."
The agreement includes an eight-week timetable for the estimated 25,000
Israeli troops to leave Lebanon and for the dismantling of their installations
as far north as Beirut. But because the withdrawal of the Syrians and the
Palestinians is still to be negotiated by the Lebanese, the agreement con-
tained no date for the start of the Israeli withdrawal.
Meanwhile, Syrian-backed Lebanese militiamen fired rockets into East
Beirut and battled with rival gunman after Israel announed its tentative
agreement with Lebanon on a pullout of forces.
Senate boosts aid for education
WASHINGTON - The Senate voted to add $250 million in federal aid to
education yesterday as it continued work on a 1984 budget that provides $12.5
billion more for domestic programs than President Reagan originally
sought.
On a vote of 55-32, the GOP-controlled Senate accepted what amounted to a
compromise proposal that would add $2.25 billion to federal education aid
over three years.
The increase in education aid amounted to a compromise in a struggle that
began Wednesday night when the Senate voted tentatively to increase school
assistance by $200 million next year and $1 billion over three years.
Sen. Ernest Hollings (D-S.C.) and Robert Stafford (R-Vt.) countered with
a proposed $260 million one-year increase and a hike of $3.6 billion through
1986. When debate resumed in the morning, bids by the Republican leadership
to defeat that plan twice failed, on votes of 46-42 and 45-43.
At that point, Hollings agreed to a compromise of $25 million, and that was
aproved 55-32.
Committee approves Ruckelshaus
WASHINGTON - A senate committee yesterday unanimously approved
William Ruckelshaus to head the Environmental Protection Agency, with
the panel's chairman calling the vote "the first important step" in restoring
confidence in the troubled agency.
The vote by the Environment and Public Works Committee sent the
nomination to the full Senate, where Ruckelshaus is virtually assured of con-
firmation. Sen. Robert Stafford (R-Vt.) the committee chairman, said the
floor vote could come Tuesday, although scheduling was uncertain.
"Ruckelshaus will provide EPA with strong and effective leadership and
he will help to restore the integrity of the agency and improve the morale of
its thousands of dedicated and competent employees," Stafford said.
Yesterday's vote followed three days of hearings this week in which
Ruckelshaus, 50, who served as the EPA's first chief during the Nixon ad-
ministration, pledged to restore an ironclad integrity to the strife-torn agen-
cy, speed up the Superfund toxic waste cleanup program and review the
Reagan administration's policy on acid rain pollution.
Chicago mayor battles council
CHICAGO - Mayor Harold Washington sent police on midnight visits to
the homes of rebel aldermen to warn them against holding a council meeting
yesterday, and when they convened he cast a veto that blocked them from
conducting business.
It was the second clash ina week between Chicago's first black mayor and
members of the council.
Washington, sworn in last week, had warned the aldermen that he con-
sidered yesterday's meeting illegal. By meeting, they defied a legal opinion
delivered, under the mayor's orders, to their homes by uniformed police.
The midnight visits were bitterly protested by Alderman Edward Burke,
one of the opposition leaders.
In the council meeting, Washington successfully blocked his foes from
conducting business by vetoing the ordinance, adopted Monday by his op-
ponents, under which the meeting was called.
After the veto was announced on the council floor, Washington's opponents
conferred and decided they couldn't muster 34 votes to override the veto.
French students protest reforms
PARIS - About 300 students marched to the Eiffel Tower yesterday chan-
ting slogans against education reforms, while another group threatened
renewed violence if there were no action on their demands.
The marchers, all pharmacy students clad in their traditional white
smocks, paraded amid a holiday atmosphere from the Montparnasse
railway station on the Left Bank of the Eiffel Tower before dispersing
quietly.
To the relief of officials there was no repeat of the clashes of Thursday night
that left 100 policemen and 40 students injured.
"No to ridiculous reform, yes to working together," the students chanted
during a brief sit-down in the Champ de Mars park adjacent to the landmark
tower on the bank of the Seine River.
Busloads of riot police waited out of sight nearby, apparently to avoid any
repeat of the violence in the Left Bank's Latin Quarter Thursday night.
