The Navajos also would pay the Hopis up to 8200 million in revenues and up to COO million in potential royalties from a proposed coal-firepower plant. But Ivan Sidney, chairman of the Hopi Tribe, denounced the bill and demanded the Navajos leave Hopi land, as required by a land settlement law passed by Congress in 1974. That law divided a disputed 1 8 million-acre "joint-us- e area" between tl,e Navajos and Hopis, leaving 10,000 land.

DAmato called the bill's IRA provisions "a shortsighted move" that "takes away from middle class families. working people. the manner by for future which they can save retirement needs." Under the committee bill, anyone who has another pension plan would no longer be able to take the annual tax deduction for placing money in an IRA. It is estimated that about of the 28 million American households that have IRA accounts would lose the deduction. In a broader attack on the bill, Sen. Alan Cranston of California, the SenDemocrat and a ate's second-rankin- g liberal leader. charged it would give too much to the wealthy and hurt the middle class by gutting the IRA tax deduction. He also complained about the proposed repeal of the capital gains tax rates. "The bill reported by the Finance ' . leagues to be wary as they consider the measure.

"I haven't seen anything like this in the 30 days we have had hearings," said Sen. Lowell P. Weicker, the panel's chairman. "Given the option between beauty and power. I'd rather have beauty." Weicker denounced Reagan administration proposals to cut the government's budget, saying he had to "grovel" in the Senate to preserve current spending levels for the National Institutes of Health in the 1987 budget while defense got another $5 billion. When Warner, who. attended the hearing even though he is not a member of the panel, was offered a chance to question the witness, the former Navy secretary said, "I'll pass, Mr. Chairman. I'm in charge of the defense budget." Warner later hosted a lunch in his office for his former wife and a dozen Senate colleagues. Taylor, national head of the AIDS research foundation, was the leadoff witness on a list of about 20 representatives of various organizations scheduled to testify on appropriations for the National Institutes for Health and other health agencies. "The AIDS virus is now spreading among heterosexuals. particularly among women. AIDS is a women's health issue of increasing importance and therefore also a growing threat to infants." Taylor told the subcommittee. "AIDS is crossing over inevitably from groups at high risk to lower risk groups." AIDS, which attacks the body's immune system, has killed 10.000 Americans and has infected another 20.000. ,, . , th . .fr . .
