Although official United States policy is that the American military role is temporary despite three and a half years of intense military buildup, some officials speak of Honduras gradually becoming like South Korea, developing into a permanent United States military staging area, manned and armed to contain any perceived Communist threat.

The American public is now about evenly split on whether the Supreme Court is too liberal or too conservative in its decisions, the latest New York Times/CBS News Poll shows. The public is also closely divided on whether the Court is doing a good job, a view it clearly rejected in the late 1960's and early 1970's.

The survey of 1,618 adults was taken last month just after Chief Justice Warren E. Burger announced his retirement and President Reagan announced plans to solidify the conservative forces on the Court with the nominations of Associate Justice William H. Rehnquist to be Chief Justice and Judge Antonin Scalia of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court.
