ENTREPRENEUR FOR ECUADOR: LEON FEBRES CORDERO RIVADENEIRA
Date: 09 May 1984
By Alan Riding

Leon Febres Cordero Rivadeneira, a self-made millionaire, campaigned for the presidency of Ecuador in shirtsleeves, knocking on doors, embracing market vendors and projecting the image of a man of the people. His leftist opponent wore dark suits and spoke in the hushed tones of a banker. When the results of the election Sunday were in, Mr. Febres Cordero's old-style populism seemed vindicated. His philosophy is conservative and pro-business, but a majority of voters seemed to choose him over Rodrigo Borja Cevallos of the Democratic Left Party because he promised simple answers to seemingly insoluble problems. The program that he says will be applied after he begins a four-year term on Aug. 10 seems almost original on a continent where the Government's role in the economy has grown dramatically over the last two decades.

ROME PROSECUTOR REQUESTS TRIAL OF 3 BULGARIANS IN ATTACK ON POPE ROME, May 8 (AP) - A state prosecutor recommended today that three Bulgarians and four Turks be tried in connection with the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II in 1981, Italian news agencies reported.
Date: 09 May 1984
The agencies, Ansa and A.G.I., quoting unnamed sources, said the state prosecutor, Antonio Albano, had filed the request with the Court of Appeals in Rome asking trials for Sergei Ivanov Antonov, former Rome manager for the Bulgarian state airline, and two former Bulgarian Embassy employees, Todor Ayvazov and Vassiliev Kolev. Mr. Antonov is in Italian custody, but Mr. Ayvazov and Mr. Kolev left Italy two years ago. Giuseppe Consolo, Mr. Antonov's Italian laywer, confirmed in a telephone interview that he had been told of the prosecutor's action. He said that he had not seen the document but that the charges were ''probably for complicity'' in the shooting of the Pope on May 13, 1981. Mr. Albano could not be reached for confirmation of the report.

SOVIET PRESS PLAYS DOWN OLYMPICS DECISION

The Soviet decision to withdraw from the Olympic Games in Los Angeles made little domestic impact today as Russians celebrated Victory Day, marking the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II. The Soviet announcement on the Olympics appeared on the back pages of newspapers, and the television news gave it little coverage. In the celebrations marking the end of the war in Europe, millions of veterans turned out to swap war stories, flaunt medals, sing front-line songs, renew friendships and visit national cemeteries, rituals that have become traditions on May 9.

Date: 10 May 1984

Steven Weisman
President Reagan, appealing in a television speech for approval of his package of aid to Central America, warned tonight that ''the Communists will likely succeed'' in toppling the Government of El Salvador if Congress rejects the aid. Mr. Reagan also made his most explicit appeal for support for what was once known as a program of ''covert'' assistance to rebels seeking to overthrow the Nicaraguan Government. The President said that those who had taken up arms against the Nicaraguan Government were ''freedom fighters'' and that the United States ''must support both the elected Government of El Salvador and the democratic aspirations of the Nicaraguan people.'' Seeks to Allay Fears But Mr. Reagan sought to allay general fears about the possibility of war or direct military involvement in the region.

SOVIET SPEEDING A BIG CARRIER
Date: 10 May 1984

The Soviet Union's first large aircraft carrier, now under construction, will be bigger than expected and is being built at a pace faster than anticipated, according to naval intelligence analysts. The analysts said that the Soviet carrier, under construction in a shipyard on the Black Sea, appeared to be planned for 75,000 tons, compared with the 65,000 tons expected earlier. The ship, believed to be nuclear-powered, would thus be able to carry about 75 aircraft instead of 60, the analysts said. The Soviet Navy's four present carriers displace 42,000 tons and carry only 36 helicopters and aircraft that take off vertically.

Cuba has told Angola that it opposes beginning a phased withdrawal of its troops from Angola now because a settlement in southern Africa might help President Reagan's re-election prospects, Administration officials said today. Cuba is thought to have 25,000 to 30,000 troops in Angola. Because of its resistance to withdrawing them, State Department officials, who earlier this year were saying they were mildly optimistic about a diplomatic breakthrough, said they no longer expected an accord before the end of the year.

REAGAN CAMPAIGNS FOR LATIN POLICY
Date: 09 May 1984
By B. Drummond Ayres Jr
President Reagan said today that the voters of El Salvador were ''heroes of democracy'' and warned that there would be ''grim consequences to pay'' if the United States did not continue to help Central American countries in their fight for freedom. Speaking to the Council of the Americas, a group of United States businessmen with interests in Latin countries, Mr. Reagan said that democracy was growing in Central America and that the people struggling for it there ''are fighting for freedom just as much as our forefathers did.'' He cited the election in El Salvador Sunday as an exceptional example of democratic progress in the region and indicated he was pleased that the winner is likely to be the moderate candidate, Jose Napoleon Duarte. At the same time, he left no doubt that he would use the election's results to help his fight to convince Congress to approve his controversial requests for more economic and military aid for Latin countries, particularly El Salvador.
