His background spans KGB chief to top party official, with a cautious stance toward détente and possible peace offensives in Europe.

White House Budget Director David Stockman, once backing tax bumps, now tries to deter President Reagan from supporting higher gasoline taxes to fund a $5.5 billion yearly highway reconstruction program. He clashes with Transportation Secretary Drew Lewis who favors doubling the gasoline tax and raising truck levies. Reagan has not decided, weighing the plan after a recent news conference. Stockman argues the plan would make the federal government permanently responsible for repairs previously handled by states and locals.
