Once approved by Congress, the nuclear accord will give U.S. companies the green light to compete for billions of dollars in nuclear purchases planned by the Chinese, including up to a dozen reactors. Such sales to China are currently illegal. Today's hectic schedule included nearly four hours of talks between Reagan and Premier Zhao Ziyang and Communist Party chief Hu Yaobang. Both By EZLEN THOMAS UPI White Beast Reporter - President PEKING (UPI) Reagan preached the virtues of capitalist society to the Chinese in the second people today, but of his visit snag diplomatic major parts of the speech were dropped when it was broadcast on t Chinese television. Reagan, the first U.S. president to visit China since 1975, used the China second day of his tour to announce that the two six-da- y Chinese leaders lectured the president on the failings of U.S. foreign policy. In between his official talks, Reagan gave a keynote speech to an elite gathering of 600 American and Chinese students, scientists and political leaders in the Great Hall of the People. Despite Chinese assurances to the White House that the speech would be broadcast in full to 200 million Chinese in prime time, major sections were eliminated and the broadcast was delayed nearly two hours. Nearly all sections of the address that extolled the benefits of Western-styl- e democracy or mentioned God or religion were cut, as were all references to "wanton acts" by the Soviet Union, such as the downing of a Korean airline with 269 people aboard. It was the second such incident involving media coverage of the U.S. president Shortly after his arrival Thursday, the White House said that "some honest confusion" had occurred over whether Chinese television would carry several Reagan events live. briefings, During several pre-tri- p the White House had indicated there would be live coverage. Despite these incidents, the Reagan staunchly said he has discovered that China, a nation he once publicly scorned, is different from other communist countries. some governments, "Unlike which fear change and fear the future, China is beginning to reach out toward new horizons, and we salute your courage," he said. "As China moves forward on this new path, America welcomes the opportunity to walk by your side," Reagan declared in a pledge of U.S. assistance to China's modernization program. Reagan said he had not come "to dwell on a closed door past," a reference to 25 years without formal relations after the 1949 communist takeover. Instead, China and America should go forward "hand in hand xieshou bingjin," he said, repeating the phrase in Chinese, to the delight -- "hand-to-han- d" of his hosts. Sprngville' Mayor Stay 110TH YEAR, NO. 233 PROVO, UTAH, FRIDAY, APRIL 27, 1984 $6.00 A MONTH - PRICE xln 25 CENTS ? Kitchen' (See related Spriagville story oa Page 4.) By J. TOM KALLUNKI Herald Correspondent - SPRINGVILLE Mayor Brent Haymond has taken his share of criticism lately. By backing a proposed redevelopment agency to change the face of downtown Springville, Haymond, according to opponents, has become a bad guy. Opponents of the plan accuse the mayor of unconstitutional action, saying he wants to rob old people of homes in a "great take over." As a former President's saying goes, "If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen," Haymond is sticking to his guns. He isn't the first Haymond to be mayor of Springville and he doesn't take the jabs personally, but u? icme 1 Plasters County South County By KAYLENE NELSEN And VICKI BARKER Herald Staff Writers The he does believe Springville needs quick business development help, particularly downtown. "The only reason the city has been looking into redevelopment is that we have been approached by several developers intCx last two downtown years who have wanted to build major facilities 40 better Springville and they went elsewhere because they financially," said Haymond, "In and of itself, that wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact we have experienced some major problems in the area of talcs tax revenues. I "These taxes go towards running the city services that we all must have to exist. "When its considered we have been given an additional share of sales tax revenues by the legislature because of last year's flooding we are expected to take in about $370,000 based on last year's experience. However, current receipts indicate that we will fall somewhere in the area of $100,000 short of that figure." Analyzing the amount, Haymond said, "That is money that we have budgeted for things like new fire trucks, the public safety building upgrade, library relocation and other projects that affect all of us who live in this city." He also feels that this figure is only the tip of the iceberg.

While a police helicopter whirred overhead, a convoy of more than 20 vehicles carrying the Libyans and their baggage then headed westward out of London, x From the embassy, the Libyans were taken to a civil service college at Sunningdale, 27 miles west of London, for a wait until it was time for departure.
