government employees ordered -back Some to work clogged the devastated streets of San Salvador today as rescue squads conceded thay were nearing the end of efforts to find more survivors Streets of the capital were reduced to one lane in many places because of burgeoning tent cities and makeshift settlements of the homeless President Jose Napoleon Duarte said Sunday there were an estimated 200000 homeless from a series of earthquakes that hit San Salvador Friday and have killed almost 900 people Following orders from Duarte up to 70000 public workers headed to their offices to report to work even though Duarte said all government offices were damaged Teenagers directed traffic at busy intersections and soldiers cordoned off the downtown area Rescue operations continued at the Ruben Dario Building a commercial building where some 300 people were trapped the majority believed dead At least 30 people have been pulled alive from the building Many people headed into the center of the city on foot to their jobs Sonia Velasco who lost her home in the San Jacinto barrio said she was going back to her store where she works as a clerk “We were going to return to se if we could work I don’t think we are going to be able (to work) but we are willing ’’ she said Crowds milled down the Primera Avenida and in front of the badly damaged Central Bank building Today was also the first day that newspapers were published in San Salvador since the series of quakes knocked out all electrical power Boys hawked the first earthquake editions as 75 centavos instead of the normal 60 centavos which is less than 20 US cents ld “Great Slaughter” read the headline of the La Prensa Grafica newspaper accompanied by a front page photo of a downed building “We have been hit by another terrible strike battering the hopes of the people who are struggling to overcome their enormous economic crisis who are fighting to resolve the violence 1 f t ' f live “We soon will begin the work of removing the dead” said one worker “The first two days following the disaster we have tried to save lives but we cannot say the situation is stable" Duarte tolL a nationally televised news conference “At this time we have because we have counted and buried them 890 people dead — there are still many more in the rubble” he said US Embassy spokesman Jake Gillespie said late Sunday that two Americans were confirmed dead and a Western diplomatic source said a third was believed to have been killed Duarte said as many as 10000 people were injured and possibly 200000 were left homeless Duarte estimated damage from the quake would total about S2 billion "This will take years and years to rebuild but I have faith the internationa community will help me" he said He said 20 plane loads of relief supplies had arrived since Friday One of the dead Americans Jose Mauricio Juarez who has both US and Salvadoran citizenship was trapped in the Ruben Dario office building where between 100 and 300 were believed killed The second American victim Yolanda Suzanne Stets 12 identified only as being from New Jersey died in a collapsed restaurant Stets lived in El Salvador with her divorced t f mother

deal of things” e The aftermath of the collapse of the talks occurred in an atmosphere of intense anticipation fed in part by a news “blackout” that held up until early Sunday when word of progress leaked from both sides US officials said that failure to announce agreements in Reykjavik did not mean all was lost and they rioted Soviet negotiators in Geneva where talks are underway on strategic

he was bringing to Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev Now he has to explain it to the American people Reagan is scheduled to give a televised address at 8 pm EDT tonight and it could be the most important speech of his presidency He has to convince the public that nuclear disarmament now is not worth giving up Star Wars in the future When the summit ended Sunday Reagan Gorbachev and Secretary of State George Shultz all emphasized how close the two leaders came to an agreement that might have radically changed the present mutual buildup of nuclear weapons into a real reduction of the two huge deadly arsenals that threaten everyone But Reagan said “no” to the key Soviet demand that would have clinched the deal He refused to limit testing of the “Star Wars” missile defense system to the laboratory That issue seemed to make the rest of the two days of progress an exercise in futility Not so long ago a president returning from a unsuccessful diplomatic mission could depend on the American public in general and Congress in particular to support him But the days when "politics stops at the water's edge” are gone and Reagan may have to face harsher judgment from his American critics than he will hear from abroad Congress may be the big problem As the overwhelming override of his South African sanctions veto demonstrated to Reagan and the failure to ratify the SALT 2 Treaty showed Jimmy Carter Congress no longer will relinquish total control of d to deny the positions offered in Iceland Indeed Gorbachev said “We are waiting We have not withdrawn the proposals we have put hard-presse- forward” But the bottom line for Reagan was that he could not sacrifice his commitment to “Star Wars” — what he calls a weapon that kills weapons not people and a protective shield for freedom — for the personal or political gain of an agreement on arms even one a top US official called “the most appealing arms package" ever seriously considered by the superpowers All told the summit talks roughly doubled the six hours of talks initially planned Sunday’s two sessions totaled 7 hours including an unexpected afternoon meeting that lasted until after dark Coming Tuesday foreign relations to the president And of particular concern to Reagan he faces a Congress — probably no matter how the November elections turn out — that is badly split on whether “Star Wars" will work or whether it is worth the expense if it does The project has fids now but that money came with difficulty It may be even harder now that the world knows what the Soviet Union will give up to keep “Star Wars” weapons out of the skies There is another potential problem for the president as a politician While foreign policy seldom provides pivotal issues in congressional elections it has happened in the past In the aftermath of Reykjavik the deal that didn’t happen might become the focus of the voting that will shape a new House of Representatives and a third of the Senate less than a month from now Reagan might be willing to face that challenge but there probably are plenty of Republican candidates who would tather not Analysis Iceland summit President Reagan WASHINGTON (UPI) week
