Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Friday, May 11, 1984 House passes aid bill for El Salvador WASHINGTON (AP) - The Democratic-controlled House gave President Reagan a significant victory on military aid to El Salvador yester- day, voting to grant the assistance un- der conditions that opponents attacked as too lenient but supporters defended as realistic. By a margin of 212-208, the House adopted a Republican foreign aid amendment that would authorize $120 million in emergency security assistance for El Salvador and other Central American countries and im- pose relatively easy conditions on fur- ther Salvadoran aid. THE HOUSE then approved, by a 211- 206 vote, the $10.5 -billion worldwide foreign aid bill, which contains the El Salvador aid authorization. A similar bill awaits Senate action, but contains no Central American provisions because of a deadlock in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Adoption of the GOP proposal will provide guidelines for a House-Senate conference committee which meets next week to consider a $61.7 million emergency appropriation for the Salvadoran military that was approved last month by the Republican- cont-olled Senate. The measure also authorizes enough military aid for Central America in the fiscal year beginning Oct. 1 to meet the administration's request for $132.5 million for El Salvador. The first half would be available if the president told Congress that the Salvadorans were making progress in human irghts and other reforms. The rest would require a second presidential report and be sub- ject to congressional disapproval within 30 days. MOST OF the Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs committee backed a proposal that would hold back two-thirds of the funds unless Congress found that the Salvadorans had curbed death squads and begun negotiations with left-wing guerrillas to end the country's civil war. Speaking against the Republican amernent, Rep. Stephen Solarz (D- N.Y.), told the House, "Leaving the See HOUSE, Page 13 4 U.S. ordered to end aggression in THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) - The World Court yesterday called on the United States to stop military aggression aimed at Nicaragua in- cluding mining its waters. The San- dinista government hailed the ruling as a "moral victory." The U.S. State Department, which earlier had rejected the court's jurisdiction in any matter involving Central America, said it would accept the ruling but asserted it would require 'no change in "current U.S. policy or activities." U.S. sources have said the mining was discontinued a month ago. The 15-member panel ruled unanimously that the United States "should immediately cease and refrain from any action restricting, blocking or endangering access to or from Nicaraguan ports, and, in particular, Nicaragua the laying of mines." A second part of the decision, which a U.S. judge opposed, said that "the right to sovreignty and to political indepen- dence possessed by the Republic of Nicaragua" should be fully respected and not jeopardized by military or paramilitary activities. Thle court, the judicial arm of the United Nations, has no enforcement powers. The court's ruling was an interim measure sought by Nicaragua while the court deliberates Nicaragua's com- plaint that the United States violated in- ternational law by supporting anti-San- dinista rebels and supervising the mining of Nicaraguan harbors. The court is empowered to tak such measures before final adjudication in a case when it judges that the sovereign rights of a nation are in jeopardy. Loyalty ..
