Pentagon Says News Reports Endanger Troops in Lebanon
Date: 03 March 1984
The Defense Department said today that reports by news organizations had endangered United States personnel in Lebanon by disclosing the location of a group of observers who were directing artillery fire. In a statement signed by Michael I. Burch, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs, the Pentagon appealed to journalists and news organizations ''not to jeopardize the safety of Americans by revealing the locations of observers.'' The statement said the area in which one group of observers was located was recently ''inadvertently disclosed'' to reporters.

PORTUGUESE PRESS OPPOSES NEW LAW
Date: 04 March 1984
By John Darnton

Portuguese journalists have expressed strong opposition to a proposed new press law, calling it ''the most violent attack on the freedom of the press'' since the 1974 revolution. The Union of Journalists said a draft text of the law would impose severe restrictions on what can be printed and provide prison sentences for violators. Parts of the bill, a union statement said, were even worse than the ''former fascist laws'' under the 48-year- long Salazar-Caetano dictatorship, a declaration that seemed a bit exaggerated since the regimes of Antonio de Oliveira Salazar and Marcello Caetano enforced strict censorship. The bill, which is still in a formative stage, was drawn up and circulated to journalists by Antonio de Almeida Santos, the Minister of State and top adviser to Prime Minister Mario Soares. He said he might be willing to make some changes here and there but basically defends it as a document that enhances the rights of journalists.

THE INDEPENDENT VOTE THAT MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE

G ARY Hart owes his victory in New Hampshire to many things, from his advocacy of what he calls ''new ideas'' to his concentration on women's issues, but no other key element in the Colorado Senator's triumph was as easy to measure as the impact of political independents. Mr. Hart and Walter F. Mondale ran just about even among Democrats, with Mr. Hart getting 37 percent of their vote and Mr. Mondale 36 percent, according to a New York Times/CBS News Poll of 1,278 voters leaving polling places. But among independents, Mr. Hart got 42 percent and Mr. Mondale only 19 percent, and that provided the 11 percentage point margin that put the Coloradan in first place.

JEWISH PRESS IS DIVIDED ON INFLUENCE OF CHARITIES

The publishers of privately owned Jewish newspapers here and elsewhere are accusing Jewish charities of trying to take control of much of the nation's Jewish English- language press in an effort to enhance their fund raising.
More than half the country's 125 or so newspapers and magazines designed for Jewish subscribers, including some of the largest, are now published either directly by Jewish charitable organizations or are heavily subsidized by them. Most carry paid advertising but have the tax advantages of a nonprofit organization.
The publishers of privately owned papers in some cities assert that such subsidized competition is threatening the survival of an ethnic press with a long history.

REPORTED CAROLINA BABY SALE PROMPTS STUDY
Date: 04 March 1984

A woman's contention that she sold her baby daughter for $3,500 has focused attention on the lack of laws barring child selling in South Carolina and on the adoption regulations and may lead to tougher new laws. In part because of the legal climate, the state has become known as an easy place to find a child to adopt. Several newspapers in the state have long accepted classified advertisements from couples, many of them affluent people from outside the state, who seek children for adoption. Kathy Jennings, an assistant Greenville County solicitor who specializes in cases involving children, said it was ''impossible'' to know how common baby selling was in South Carolina because so many adoptions were privately arranged through a doctor or lawyer, with no state involvement other than a judge's approval.

A Defense Department report to Congress asserts that the United States and the Soviet Union are now equal in the technological advancement of medium-range ballistic missiles. The report, issued Tuesday by the Pentagon's research and development chief, Richard D. DeLauer, also said United States technology had surpassed that of the Russians in missile- carrying submarines and in conventional warheads, including chemical explosives. The comparisons of the levels of technological advancement are made annually in a chart listing various weapons, from intercontinental ballistic missiles to early warning systems.

THE HAUNTING SPECTER OF TEEN-AGE SUICIDE
Date: 04 March 1984
By Jane E. Brody

Several suicides by teen-agers in affluent suburban New York communities over the last few weeks have drawn attention to a phenomenon that is both frightening and baffling. The four deaths in Westchester County and one in neighboring Putnam County are reminiscent of seven suicides in the well-to-do boom town of Plano, Tex., last year and a similar group of suicides in the prosperous suburbs north of Chicago in the late 1970's. Is suicide ''contagious''? Does publicity of one or two such deaths prompt other troubled teen-agers to follow suit? What causes young people, especially those with above average abilities and opportunities, to take their own lives? Are those from affluent families especially at risk? What role do drugs and alcohol play? While scientific research provides some clues, experts rely mainly on case histories and their clinical experience, which provide some correlations between suicides and social changes.

CONGRESS AGENCY QUESTIONS NEW WARSHIP'S ROLE
Date: 04 March 1984

A recent report from the Congressional Budget Office questions whether the Arleigh Burke class destroyer, a billion-dollar Navy warship that is to enter production later this year, is suitable for future naval warfare. The report was provided to the House and Senate Budget Committees as part of an annual analysis of the budget submitted by the Reagan Administration. In analyzing ways to reduce the military budget, it suggested that Congress could indefinitely defer authorization of the new destroyer, also known by the military designation DDG-51, because of tactical considerations and cost. Because the DDG-51 will depend on high-powered radar to search for the enemy, the report questions whether the ship would be vulnerable to attack by missiles that home in on radar and whether it would be unsuited to the widely dispersed, silent naval formations believed likely in future wars.
