Yao said his discussions with Soviet leaders would focus on the development of trade and other economic ties as well as "other questions of mutual interest," an apparent reference to long- standing disputes that have chilled relations between the two nations. The highlight of the visit will be the signing of a five-year trade pact, which Westernddiplomats in Peking said is designed to quadruple Sino-Soviet trade to $6 billion a year by 1990. The amount of Sino-Soviet trade this year is ex- pected to reach $1.6 billion, com- pared with $1.2 billion in 1984. U.S.S.R. says U.S. sponsors terrorism MOSCOW - The Soviet Union yesterday denied President Reagan's charges that it has a close relationship with terrorist states and attacked Washington for sponsoring "state terrorism worldwide." Reagan charged Monday that Iran, Libya, North Korea, Cuba and Nicaragua represent "a new international version of Murder Inc." He also said the Soviet Union's "close relationship with almost all of the terrorist states" must be recognized. Responding to Reagan's speech to the American Bar Association, the Communist Party newspaper Pravda accused the United States of sponsoring terrorism in Central America, Southeast Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Iraqi planes fire on Turkish tanker Iraqi warplanes fired a missile Tuesday into a Turkish super- tanker, setting it afire in the Per- sian Gulf. Lloyd's of London said it was the largest ship yet hit in the nearly 5-year-old war with Iran. The official Iraqi News Agency said Iraqi warplanes, attacking at dawn, hit a "large naval target" near Kharg Island, Iran's main oil exporting terminal in the gulf. In the past, Iraq has used that phrase to refer to oil tankers but it gave no other details on yesterday's hit. Brushfires still burn Walls of fire continued their march across the tinder-dry West yesterday. California was the worst hit by blazes sparked by lightning bolts and arsonists while an army of firefighters were flown in from all over the country. State officials said the unruly fires, which have killed three, are the worst since 1980. Flames have forced thousands of people from their homes and blackened about 230,000 acres in the state since June 30. Shultz visits refugees BANGKOK, Thailand - Secretary of State George Shultz trekked to a refugee camp on the volatile Thai-Cambodian border yesterday and pledged U.S. sup- port to 55,000 Cambodian refugees who chanted, "U.S.A. Number One." Shultz, the highest-ranking U.S. official to visit the embattled bor- der, shook hands and patted babies as he waded through the throng of cheering refuges at the camp known as Site7. "Please help us turn Vietnamese killing fields into Cambodian far- ming fields. We want to go home," said one placard carried by the refugees. "God Bless America," said another. The 55,000 refugees were among 250,000 people who fled to Thailand when Vietnamese troops oc- cupying Cambodia overran all the major Cambodian rebel bases on the border during a dry-season of- fensive last winter and spring. 4 4 4 Vol. XCV- No. 27-S The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745-967 X) is published Monday through Friday during the fall and winter terms and Tuesday through Saturday during the spring and summer terms by students at The University of Michigan.
