SENATOR TOUGH IN THE FRAY; Man in the News

Date: 17 September 1982

By Marjorie Hunter, Special To the New York Times

No one ever accused Senator Ted Stevens of penny-pinching the military. A fighter pilot with the famed Flying Tigers in World War II, he has long been one of the leading Congressional supporters of a strong military. So it is something of a political paradox that the Alaska Republican now finds himself in the position of trying to force the Pentagon into trimming $8.7 billion from the $210 billion in military spending sought for the coming fiscal year by President Reagan. It is not a fight of his own choosing. As chairman of the Senate Appropriations Military Subcommittee, Senator Stevens favors giving the Pentagon as much money as it needs. But he also supports the budget resolution, passed by Congress in June with the President's blessings, that calls for the cut in military spending. With both the Pentagon and White House now resisting such cuts, Senator Stevens finds himself caught in the middle.

By denouncing Great Society programs of the Johnson Administration in a speech to a black audience, President Reagan provided fresh ammunition for critics who say he is trying to reverse the racial progress of the last 20 years. The President's speech Wednesday night to a convention of the National Black Republican Council has also fueled anew the partisan debate over Mr. Reagan's personal sensitivity to blacks and his understanding of black history. That debate gained force today because of the intensely negative Democratic reaction to the President's speech and because the speech coincided with a series of meetings in Washington this week by black groups that are sharply divided on the question of Mr. Reagan's racial attitudes. Robert Neuman, a spokesman for the Democratic National Committee, predicted that the President's speech would drive his poll standing with blacks still lower and would provide an opportunity for effective attack on Mr. Reagan. ''We're going to capitalize on that,'' he said. ''We're galvanizing reaction.''

When the Israelis entered Lebanon on June 6, the question immediately arose as to how they would eventually manage to get out. Now that they have moved deeply into west Beirut and more deeply into Lebanon's morass of internal factionalism, the question has grown more urgent and more troublesome. Never before has Israel sought so ambitiously to translate its military power into political power. Never have its leaders moved so directly to influence the internal political makeup of a neighboring Arab country. Never before have they taken control of an Arab capital. And never have the results of an Israeli military victory seemed so dubious.

Incumbents were the big winners again Tuesday as the 1982 election results continued to reflect resistance to political change. While Gov. Edward J. King of Massachusetts was defeated, he was the first governor to lose this year. No member of Congress lost his party's nomination Tuesday. Only two representatives have lost to primary challengers all year. The last big primary day of the campaign reinforced another yearlong trend: the lack of success of the most conservative Republican candidates running in crowded fields of nonincumbents. From New Hampshire to Washington State, moderates or conservatives who had someone to their political right were the Republican winners.

The decision by the International Business Machines Corporation to dismiss and sue three executives on charges of stealing corporate secrets is the second bombshell in a war the giant computer company has begun to keep competitors from exploiting I.B.M. technology. The huge computer company is waging this war with its own security force, whose sometimes colorful tactics have attracted attention in recent months. In the latest case, according to I.B.M., the three executives, including two senior engineers involved in designing I.B.M.'s personal computer, had formed a company, Bridge Technology Inc., to market products or designs for products that could be attached to the personal computer to enhance its performance. I.B.M., in announcing the suit on Tuesday, said that it had gathered its evidence with the help of the president of a Cleveland computer company who pretended to negotiate with the employees while secretly taping his converations with them and turning over the tapes to I.B.M. The employees, who were dismissed on Monday, have declined to comment. Only three months earlier, I.B.M. joined the Federal Bureau of Investigation in an undercover operation that resulted in the arrests of executives of Hitachi Ltd. and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, two Japanese giants, for allegedly stealing I.B.M. secrets.

International Israeli troops seized control of most of west Beirut after overcoming resistance by Lebanese Moslems and leftist militiamen. They were continuing the drive that they began on Wednesday, hours after Lebanon's President-elect, Bashir Gemayel, was assassinated. (Page A1, Column 6.) A withdrawal of Israeli troops from west Beirut was demanded by the United States as the Reagan Administration charged that the entry of military forces was a ''clear violation'' of the cease-fire agreement negotiated last month. A State Department spokesman said the Israelis had told American officials that the military moves were ''limited and precautionary.'' But, he went on, the situation ''does not seem to jibe'' with the assurances.(A1:3.)

NEWS OF MUSIC; KANSAS CITY'S ORCHESTRA SURVIVES

ACITY whose orchestra can rise from the ashes of insolvency in the blink of an eye ought to be named Phoenix. But because there already is a Phoenix, Kansas City may have to content itself with the knowledge that it has kept at least the nucleus of its orchestra intact for another season. Earlier this year, the board of directors of the Kansas City Philharmonic voted to accept the recommendation of a planning committee that it discontinue operations. Subsequently, the board of the Kansas City Lyric Opera accepted a gift of $1 million from R. Crosby Kemper, to be used in presenting a series of symphonic, pops and outreach concerts during the 1982-83 season. The grant is expected to permit the formation of a new orchestra consisting of 72 musicians, most of whom are former members of the Philharmonic, which will perform 10 pairs of subscription concerts at the Lyric Theater and a limited number of pops and outreach programs at other locations in the Kansas City area.

ISRAELI CENSORS CRACK DOWN ON THE ARAB PRESS

Date: 16 September 1982

Special to the New York Times

Israeli security officials have closed down a Palestinian press service here at a time of heavy Israeli censorship of the Arab press. Since Israel's invasion of Lebanon, Arab editors have complained that Israeli censorship has virtually forced them to fill their papers by translating Hebrew reports and commentaries from the Israeli press. In recent weeks, however, the Arab press has been barred from publishing many of these features even though they have already appeared in Israeli papers, according to the Arab editors.
