Arms talks chilled by Soviet stance and unrest in Europe

Bush Administration Eyes Easing High Tech Export Curbs
The United States considers loosening sales limits on high technology to Eastern Europe as Western allies push for reform. Commerce Undersecretary Dennis Kloske says views are converging on changes that would not threaten national security and should be presented to President Bush by month’s end.

Tax trainee study shows large lost revenues from new auditor training
A GAO analysis estimates training new IRS revenue agents costs the government about 980 million in lost taxes, with potential losses near 8.5 billion if similar effects occur in other districts. The study cites unrealized audit revenues as substantial despite differing methodologies, covering hires from July 1, 1986, to Sept. 30, 1988. The audit rate has fallen from 150 per 10 000 returns in 1983 to about 92 per 10 000 this year.
