Poor countries lose U S aid amid tighter policy
Washington reports show the Reagan administration and Congress curbing aid to poorer nations. Vetoes and reluctance to fund loans at international lenders have drawn criticism that the U S is abandoning its traditional generosity. Recent actions include a veto of a $10 million IDB loan to Guyana and a $2.2 million road project loan for Nicaragua.

Jumblatt to Meet McFarlane in Paris Over Lebanon Crisis
Walid Jumblatt leader of Lebanon's Druze and head of the Progressive Socialist Party left for Paris for a hastily arranged meeting with U S Middle East envoy Robert C McFarlane after 24 hours of tense contacts through diplomatic channels in Damascus. He told the envoy he did not want the talks in Lebanon as Druze fighters clash with rightist Christian militias in the central Lebanese mountains.

GIs Land in Honduras for Joint War Games
More than 1,000 U.S. soldiers arrived in Honduras for joint exercises with Honduran forces, a display of strength cited by the Reagan administration. In El Salvador, scattered fighting and rightist killings were reported as leftist rebels continue a 46 month war against the U.S.-backed government. In Managua, the Nicaraguan Defense Ministry reported seven rightist insurgents and 14 Sandinista soldiers killed in the past week in northern Nicaragua.
