Russia Israel thaw? Six-year deadlock breaks at UN
Israel and the Soviet Union held their first foreign ministers meeting in six years at the UN in New York. Yitzhak Shamir said no thaw was announced after talks with Andrei Gromyko, with both sides far apart on renewing ties. Shamir raised emigration of Soviet Jews but gained no concessions. Gromyko noted Arab states' nonrecognition.

Workers to help choose directors in Poland
Polish workers win right to help nominate factory directors while a new law on worker self management faces an early test from Solidarity. 5,000 to 7,000 miners strike in Silesia after pro government union leaders arrest a Solidarity mine chief. Solidarity denounces the action as a move against free union activity. The Parliament passed the measure with 15 abstentions, granting a leading role to workers in nominating managers and a limited role in approving them, with courts to arbitrate disputes. Government control remains in defense, utilities, and other vital sectors.
