The review, the most thorough in over a decade, envisions a unified command structure to coordinate Pershing missiles, Trident submarines, B 1 bombers, cruise missiles and anti missile defenses under NORAD and a new Space Command.

Reagan acts to freeze Medicare rates in 1986
Washington reports the Reagan administration found Medicare hospital payments were overstated by 6.1 percent this year and must be frozen next year to correct the error. The Health Care Financing Administration cites lower than expected health care inflation and outlines a 2.75 percent cut planned for fiscal year 1986, but freezes were chosen to avoid punitive impact on hospitals. Medicare covers 27 million elderly and 3 million disabled people with a projected 71.8 billion dollar program cost this year.

United Air Lines plans to hire permanent replacements for about 5,200 striking pilots and flight attendants unless the union accepts back to work terms. Ferris said the carrier runs at 1 percent capacity and could reach normal 1,550 daily flights by next April by hiring 300 pilots a month. ALPA cited a risk to the union as efforts to fill vacancies continue, while United cites unresolved issues including the status of newly trained pilots and cross-picket line staffing.
