TAMING OF THE NEWS CONFERENCE
Date: 24 May 1984
By Robert D. Hershey Jr

It was a couple minutes before the start of President Reagan's news conference Tuesday night and the White House spokesman, Larry M. Speakes, had just finished his usual run-through of the ground rules. Raise your hand, don't speak until you're sure it's you who's been recognized, no more than one follow-up related either to the initial question or to its answer. ''Any problems?'' he inquired, stepping down from the podium. Hearing none, he added, ''Good, go get 'im.''

International Efforts to provide Saudi Arabia with 1,200 portable Stinger antiaircraft missiles will be revived, according to State Department officials. They said the Reagan Administration had informed key members of Congress of its plan because of the possibility of Iranian air attacks. The move, they said, was taken in response to an urgent request Tuesday by King Fahd. (Page A1, Column 6.)

BILL ON INFORMATION ACT IS ASSAILED AT HEARING
Date: 25 May 1984
A bill that proposes to modify the Freedom of Information Act was sharply criticized today by representatives of news organizations and public interest groups at a Congressional hearing. They said the changes would lead to withholding of valuable Government information now available to the public. The proposed bill, passed in February by the Senate, supports Reagan Administration efforts to close law-enforcement agency files from the public. It would also impose what could be high fees on individuals seeking information from other Government agencies, and extend the time limits for agency responses to requests for information.

MILITARY AID BILL FOR EL SALVADOR PASSED BY HOUSE
Date: 25 May 1984
By Hedrick Smith, Special To the New York Times

The House of Representatives approved $61.75 million in emergency military aid for El Salvador today but voted against further financing for Nicaraguan rebels. The vote appeared to be at once a vote of confidence for President-elect Jose Napoleon Duarte of El Salvador and a rebuff to President Reagan's policy toward Nicaragua. Reversing what had been a fairly strong Democratic vote against aid to El Salvador two weeks ago, 115 Democrats joined an almost solid Republican vote to approve the emergency military aid package for El Salvador by 267 to 154. Only five Republicans joined 149 Democrats, mostly liberals from California and northern states, in opposing the measure.

THE END OF ARMS CONTROL
Date: 25 May 1984

Grinning and joking in his best aw- shucks manner, President Reagan told the nation the other night that if he were ''concerned'' about additional missile-bearing Soviet submarines being stationed off U.S. coasts, ''I wouldn't be sleeping in this house tonight.'' But it's no joke - no matter how Mr. Reagan and the Pentagon try to persuade us it's nothing new and isn't important - that a new round of nuclear escalation is under way, with both the U.S. and the Soviet Union building up their capacity to hit important targets in the other's homeland in less than 10 minutes. That's the military consequence of U.S. deployment of Pershing 2 and cruise missiles in Europe and the new - not necessarily completed - Soviet submarine deployment. Its chilling corollary is that both sides now are more dependent on computer decisions, and more likely to adopt launch-on-warning policies.

SENATE ARMS UNIT APPROVES 7 1/2% RISE FOR PENTAGON, MIRRORING WEINBERGER REQUEST

The Senate Armed Services committee today approved a military authorization bill of $299 billion for the next fiscal year, including money for the Pentagon and military programs of the Department of Energy. The budget the committee approved for the Pentagon alone, not including the Department of Energy, was $291.7 billion, an increase of 7.5 percent over the 1984 authorization, after adjustment for inflation. That is well below the Reagan Administration's original request of $305 billion but nearly identical to the revised budget brought to the Senate earlier this month by Secretary of Defense Caspar W. Weinberger.
