Allen United Press International SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - The United States soon will test its first anti-satellite weapon in an effort to catch up to the Soviets and per suade them to reach an agreement covering anti-satellite systems, the White House announced Tueday. Spokesman Larry Speakes said President Reagan formally notified Congress that at an unspecified time after 15 days from Tuesday the United States will launch a rocket- like vehicle from an F-15 fighter aimed at an old U.S. satellite in Earth orbit. The test "is necessary to avert clear and irrevocable harm to the national security," Reagan said. The test, whose date remains classi fied, "constitutes an incentive for the Soviet Union to reach an agree ment on these and other issues" in Geneva. "The Soviet Union has for many years had the world's only opera tional anti-satellite system," Rea gan said. "There is also a growing threat from present and prospective Soviet satellites which are designed to support directly the U.S.S.R.'s terrestrial forces," he said. Reagan was required to notify Congress under the Defense Autho rization Act, which allows the ad ministration to undertake three such tests this year. The law also required a certifica tion that the United States is acting in good faith to negotiate a limita tion agreement with Moscow. The Kremlin has called for a freeze on such "ASAT" testing^) but Speakes said it was "disingenuous" of the Soviets to accuse the United States of seeking to militarize space when they have a "monopoly." "Such testing would not constitute an irreversible step that would gravely impair prospects for negoti ations on anti-satellite weapons," Reagan said in his message to Congress. He said the prospective tests, first against an old satellite and then against a new test vehicle specially designed as a target, is consistent with existing arms treaties. The test would not involve a nu clear explosion but would, instead, fire the "miniature vehicle" at a satellite and destroy it without an explosion, Speakes said. "The Soviets are well ahead of us in testing," Speakes said. "They have prospects for future develop ment that we believe could put us farther behind." In addition to a current ASAT system that is operational, the Sovi ets now have a ground-based laser African arms outgrow embargo By Ivan Zverina United Press International UNITED NATIONS - South Afri ca is better equipped militarily than it was 22 years ago when the United Nations first imposed an arms em bargo to try to force an end to apartheid, a U.N. report said Tuesday. "Moreover, South Africa is con tinuously expanding and upgrading its military force because of its per ception of external threat," said the document, which estimates South Africa to be the 10th largest arms manufacturer in the world. The report was prepared by the U.N. Center on Transnational Cor porations for the 40th U.N. General Assembly that begins in mid- September. "The white-minority rulers of the country today appear even better prepared militarily to enforce their apartheid policy than they were when sanctions were first imposed" by the U.N. Security Council in 1963, the report said. Apartheid is the white-minority government's policy of racial segre gation against the 24 million blacks in South Africa. "The embargoes voted for in 1963. made mandatory in 1977 and ex tended in 1984, have not achieved their primary goals of helping to eliminate apartheid or to reduce the threat of war in the region," the report said. "South Africa maintains its apart heid policies, its ability to deter mine the pace of change in Namibia (neighboring South West Africa), and its ability to force neighboring states to keep their support of oppo sition groups to a minimum," it said. South Africa got most of the mili tary hardware from abroad be tween 1963 and 1977 when "it had little difficulty in attracting foreign interests to sell the wherewithal] for a transition toward military self- sufficiency," the report said. It did not name the foreign sellers. The document concluded that "imperfect as they might be, em bargoes are a necessary part of international policy to eliminate apartheid." The report also said that South Africa's "Valindaba uranium en richment plant is estimated to pro duce enough plutonium for two to three bombs a year. Thus, South Africa could already have a stock pile of 15 to 25 nuclear bombs." But the report provided no evi dence that South Africa has a nucle ar weapon. The center is planning public hearings on the role of multination al companies in helping South Afri ca maintain apartheid and its con trol of Namibia. system that could be operational in space by the late 1980s or early 1990, Speakes said. "The Soviet Union has an effec tive capability to seek and destroy critical U.S. space systems in near- Earth orbit," he said. "The Soviet Union also maintains a large, di rected energy research program that involves ground-based lasers that we assess to be capable of performing some ASAT functions." "They are testing a system on the ground that they could put into space that could put a laser in space," Speakes said. "There is a growing threat from Soviet satel lites which are designed to support directly Soviet ground forces in the event of a conflict." He said the one immediate threat would be that Soviet satellites could provide targeting data against U.S. naval forces without a U.S. ability to knock out the spies in the sky. Although the United States has similar spy satellites, "We can't blow theirs out. That's the prob lem," Speakes said. He said the Soviet Union had been notified of the announcement through diplomatic channels as had U.S. allies and members of Congress. Speakes said the decision to go ahead with the testing, and a possi ble escalation of the space arms race, was made after taking into account possible Soviet reactions. The Soviets walked out of nuclear arms talks in late 1983 after the United States began installing medi um-range missiles in Europe to counter what officials said was an imbalance in nuclear forces. Falwell: Tutu fails to represent blacks By Esther Pessin United Press International NEW YORK - Moral Majority leader Jerry Falwell, fresh from a meeting with South African Presi dent Pieter Botha, Tuesday said No bel Peace Prize winner Bishop Des mond Tutu was "a phony as far as representing" blacks. Falwell arrived at Kennedy Inter national Airport pledging to begin a national campaign to encourage continued investments in South Af rica's apartheid regime, saying the racially segregated government needs America's support. He also charged that Tutu, the black religious leader who has spo ken out against his country's white- minority government, does not truly represent the black people of South Africa. "I think he is a phony as far as representing the black people," Fal well said. Unlike Tutu, Falwell charged, the people of South Africa do not want Americans to divest or impose sanc tions on the racially segregated na tion. He said he formed his opinion of national sentiment by talking to dozens of South Africans -- both government officials and people in the streets. Falwell also said he had asked to meet with Tutu but the Anglican bishop never responded to his request. Eight other clergymen met with Botha Monday and one of them, Methodist leader Peter Storey, said Falwell does not have "the slightest notion of what is happening in the hearts and minds of the people in this country." Falwell said the South African government needs America's sup port, although he did not support the concept of apartheid -- a legal poli cy of racial segregation. "Apartheid is wrong. No sensible person, certainly no Christian can support it." He said officials in South Africa were especially critical of Tutu, whose prominence as a spokesman for the oppressed of South Africa was raised when he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984. Falwell said he would soon begin a television-legislative campaign through his Moral Majority to con vey the message that the South Afri can government should be support- As of August 1st...
