A The Independent Record, Helena, Tuesday, October 13, 1987 Williams bill passes House WASHINGTON (AP) The Montana wilderness bill sponsored by Rep. Pat Williams, was passed today on a voice vote by the U.S. House, set-, ting up a potential showdown over the measure in the Senate Williams bill would designate an additional 1.3 million acres of wilderness in Montana. It also would release about 4 million acres of roadless lands for potential development, such as logging and mining, and for potential use by motorized vehicles. Montanas other congressman, Rep.

Ron Marle-nee, has bitterly opposed the bill and made his thoughts known today just before the vote was taken. Marlenee said there already is an abundance of wilderness" in the state and referred to letters of opposition from the secretaries of interior and agriculture. Marlenee said he will seek a presidential veto unless the bill is changed or moderated. Sen. John Meicher, also has indicated he may not support a bill that does not accommodate some of Marlenees wishes.

Williams responded today that his bill is balanced and provides "responsible protection and utilization vof federal lands." He said the bill is good for jobs because 6 million acres of roadless lands will remain closed to any development until Congress passes a Montana wilderness bill. Winner OSS Complete TV listings are carried each Friday in the IR's Your Time Arias met with President Reagan in Washington on Sept. 22 and addressed the United Nations General Assembly a day later. The General Assembly on Oct. 7 approved a resolution endorsing the peace plan.

The fundamental difference between my position and that of President Reagans administration is that we (the peace accord signatories) are convinced that if there is to be any change of government in Central America, it must be by means of votes and not through the use of weapons, Arias said after his speech at the United Nations. Since the peace plan was signed, the leftist Sandinista government in Nicaragua has allowed opposition media to reopen, begun a limited cease-fire and started talks with the internal opposition. El Salvador and Guatemala have held talks with insurgents. Arias, a lawyer, earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Costa Rica in 1967 and studied at the University of Essex in England and at the London School of Economics. He was a university professor and a member of Costa Ricas Legislative Assembly and has written several books on politics and economic development in Latin America.

Arias, one of 93 candidates for the prize, was nominated by Bjorn Molin, a former Swedish Molin said-he nominated Arias three times for the peace prize because "Costa Rica is an example for peace. The award was seen as uAusu-al, since Arias main achievement was accomplished after the Peace Prize nominations were closed on Feb. 1. But Nobel Committee chairman Egil Aarvik said his committee was entitled to consider work up to the time the announcement is made. Plan Democratization The five governments promise to establish "pluralistic and participatory democratic processes that promote social justice, respect for human rights, sovereignty, territorial integrity and the right of all nations to determine their own economic, social and political system.

This section also calls for complete freedom of the press, access to the media for opposition parties and restoration of full civil rights in any country operating under a state of emergency. The latter would only apply to Nicaragua. Free elections All countries in the region would be required to hold simultaneous elections for representatives to a proposed Central American Parliament in the first half of 1988. After that, each country would hold local, congressional and presidential elections on its normal schedule with guarantees of free and open campaigning and balloting. Aid to irregular forces Governments openly or secretly giving aid to rebel forces would be asked to halt such assistance, including military, logistic, propaganda and humanitarian aid.

Insurgent groups would be asked to stop accepting such aid. Territorial use The five countries agree not to allow the use of their territory by persons or groups attempting to destablize or overthrow other governments. They also agree not to give military or logistic support to such groups. Verification, control and arms limitation Negotiations over verification, control and arms limitations would be conducted under the aegis of the Contadora nations of Mexico, Venezuela, Panama and Colombia. Refugees The governments promise to aid refugees displaced by Central American wars and help with voluntary repatriation.

They ask the international community for aid for refugees. Development The five countries would ask jointly for extraordinary support from the international community to promote economic development. International verification and compliance A verification and control commission would be set up, consisting of representatives of the Organization of American States, the United Nations, the Central American foreign ministers, the four Contadora nations and the Contadora support group of Argentina, Brazil, Peru and Uruguay. Calendar Within 90 days of signing, the foreign ministers are charged with establishing the final terms for amnesty, cease-fires, demo--cratization, cut-off of aid to irregular forces and prohibitions on use of such forces use of one nations territory to destablize another nation. Within 120 days, the international verification commission is to analyze progress and the presidents are to meet 30 days later to hear the commissions report.

there has been -war in Nicaragua for many years. This must stop. It must stop immediately, said Arias. The president, who took his wife and two children to the beach for the Columbus Day holiday, was to return to the capital today. Arias began working on the plan immediately after he was elected Costa Ricas president in May 1986, with 53 percent of the vote.

The Central American peace plan was signed on Aug. 7 in Guatemala City by Arias and the presidents of Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala. The Reagan administration, which backs El Salvadors government and the COntra rebels in Nicaragua, has called the plan flawed because it does not provide for sanctions in case of non-compliance.
