Soviet Christians view Carter as brother in faith
Soviet dissident Baptist leader George Vins told reporters at the Southern Baptist Convention that U S President Carter is seen by Soviet Christians as a ally who will push for human rights in Russia where church leaders face subtle repression and occasional physical abuse. Vins, freed after five years in Siberian prison, noted about 40 reform Baptists remain jailed and prepared to reunite with his family in New York before heading to Vermont for a welcome gathering.

Navy recruitment policy accused of racial quotas by ACLU
The ACLU charges the Navy uses a Parity Management Policy to cap minority enlistments, allowing only A scorers to join automatically and limiting B and C scorers by race. Rep. Edwards signals potential hearings on military equal employment practices amid the dispute. The Navy defends its equal opportunity stance and notes a goal to place 75 percent of each major racial-ethnic group into Navy technical schools.
