EXPERIENCED POLITICIAN FOR LABOR POST
Date: 21 March 1985
By Kenneth B. Noble
Kenneth
Unlike Raymond J. Donovan, who was virtually unknown in political circles here before being named by President Reagan as Secretary of Labor, Bill Brock has been making headlines for almost two decades as part of the Washington establishment that seems to float effortlessly from one Administration to another. Mr. Brock was first elected to the House of Representatives as the wealthy scion of a Tennessee family that owned a candy-making business. And he made his initial reputation in Congress as a tart-tongued conservative who voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. But as chairman of the Republican National Committee and then as Mr. Reagan's personal representative in foreign trade matters, Mr. Brock has, by most accounts, been successful in recent years at establishing a rapport with many who once sharply disagreed with his views. At the same time, Mr. Brock is seen by many of his colleagues as having gone through a political as well as a personal evolution from a prickly conservative to a conciliatory moderate.

AN EMPIRE BUILDER WITHOUT USUAL EGO: THOMAS SAWYER MURPHY

Thomas Sawyer Murphy, the 59- year-old chairman of Capital Cities Communications and the next head of ABC, has built an extensive communications empire that includes dozens of publishing and broadcast companies. But in so doing, he has remained a private man, who generally wins plaudits from people whose companies he has acquired. He has a reputation for leaving the management in place in the companies he acquires and letting the company executives make decisions for themselves. ''I was a little skeptical when the company was bought,'' said Louis Dotti, executive vice president at Institutional Investor, which Capital Cities acquired last September. ''But they create a sense of trust. It's a wonderful motivational device.''

Dispute Halts London Paper
Date: 21 March 1985
AP
The Sun, Britain's largest-selling daily newspaper, was not published today because of a labor dispute stemming from plans to move printing to a new plant and introduce new technology. The management of the paper, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch, said that the day's press run was canceled when two print unions that on Tuesday called branch meetings during production time would not promise to put out all of today's editions.

MEESE FAVORS REDUCING TOTAL OF CLASSIFIED DATA
Date: 21 March 1985
By Leslie Maitland Werner

Attorney General Edwin Meese 3d said today that any Government decision to prosecute journalists for making secrets public would ''depend on the circumstances of the case.'' ''I think and I would hope,'' Mr. Meese said, ''that journalistic ethics would prevent people who have obtained what is in effect stolen property, stolen information, from utilizing it in a way that would compromise or hurt the national interest.'' Mr. Meese, in a question-and-answer session after a luncheon speech to the Washington Press Club, was asked whether he favored prosecuting journalists for publicizing classified information that was disclosed to them without Government authorization. The Reagan Administration has repeatedly expressed concern over the potential for unauthorized disclosures of information that would endanger national security. In 1983 it attempted to tighten procedures for the handling of such information through an order requiring many more Federal employees to sign secrecy agreements and expanding the use of the polygraph, or lie detector, to investigate breaches of security.

C.I.A. DRAFTS A BILL TO GUARD SECRETS
Date: 20 March 1985
By Stuart Taylor Jr., Special To the New York Times

The Central Intelligence Agency has sent the White House a proposal to make it a crime for Government employees to disclose national security secrets without authorization, Administration officials said today. The proposed legislation would authorize prosecution of Government employees or former employees who ''willfully'' disclosed ''any classified information,'' with certain narrow exceptions, to reporters or others outside the Government. The maximum penalty would be five years in prison and a $25,000 fine. Although the Justice Department takes the position that such disclosures already violate criminal laws barring espionage and theft of Government property, that interpretation is in dispute in a pending court case.

ARMS TALKS STRATEGY: BARGAINING RANGES WIDELY
Date: 21 March 1985
By Leslie H. Gelb

As the Reagan Administration and the Soviet Union gear up their strategies for the current arms control negotiations, the bargaining goes well beyond the the exchanges behind closed doors in Geneva to the political arenas of the United States and Western Europe. ''This is going to be fought out in Western newspapers and legislative bodies,'' said an Administration official. ''It will not be settled by the force of logic and reason in Geneva.'' As American officials and foreign diplomats see it, the key will be which side is able to convince Western public opinion that the other is not negotiating seriously. If the Washington wins, Moscow may have to come around. If not, President Reagan will find himself trapped either into making concessions or looking like the obstacle to peace.

WASHINGTON ; THE OTHER STAR WAR
Date: 20 March 1985
By James Reston

MARRAKESH, Morocco The Voice of America is heard every morning in Morocco as clearly and regularly as the crowing of the roosters at sunrise. ''This is the news from Washington,'' it says, as if the Atlas Mountains outside your window were as close as the Blue Ridge of Virginia. With a careful touch on the radio dial, you hear the conflicting babble of the world: the Moscow radio on more channels than anybody else, loud and accusative; the less frequent voices of the West from West Germany, France and the Netherlands, and the quiet cadences from London: Here is the news, read by so and so in the World Service of the BBC. These government shortwave stations are indeed a ''world service,'' neglected because they are not heard in their own countries, but they are bringing the news here to Africa as never before, and reminding at least a remnant of leaders and listeners of what's going on beyond their borders.
