2The Daily Tar HeelMonday, December 4, 1989 World and Nation Peaceful change mmairks summit talks From Associated Press reports MARSAXLOKK BAY, Malta President Bush and Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev wrapped up two days of superpower summitry on Sun day, claiming strides toward a new era of East-West peace but underscoring differences that linger at the end of a 45-year Cold War. Both men said they would meet again next year in the United States and ex pressed the hope but not the cer tainty they would be able to sign historic agreements in 1990 to cut long range nuclear weapons and conven tional forces in Europe and make prog ress toward a chemical weapons ban. "We stated, both of us, that the world leaves one epoch of Cold War and enters another epoch," Gorbachev said 3.

"We are just at the very beginning of our long road to a long lasting peaceful period." Said Bush after his first summit as president: "I am optimistic that as the West works patiently together and in creasingly cooperates with the Soviet Union, we can realize a lasting peace and transform the East-West relation ship into one of enduring cooperation." Even so, neither man sought to gloss over differences on two topics, the Soviets' call for cuts in naval forces and American anger at the continued flow of Soviet weapons to leftist rebels in El Salvador. Gorbachev departed Malta for Moscow, where he was convening a meeting of Warsaw Pact leaders to dis cuss the summit. Bush went to Belgium to report to NATO leaders on the summit. The joint news conference in Malta was held aboard the luxury liner Maxim Gorky, which was pressed into service as the site for the talks after bad weather forced cancellation of plans to use U.S. and Soviet warships anchored offshore. The two superpower leaders met for eight hours over two days at a time of extraordinary change in Eastern Eu rope. The upheaval was dramatized in the summit's final hours by the resigna tion of the East German leadership and the formation of a new government in Czechoslovakia that opposition lead ers immediately denounced as too much like the old one. $gUU OFF V FREE GIFT BOXES AND SHIPPING!

The dramatic, unprecedented ac tion, announced by megaphone to a cheering crowd, stripped power from Krenz less than six weeks after he replaced hard-liner Erich Honecker. Krenz was not named to the new panel, which will lead the country until a party congress later this month. It was the shortest reign of any East German leader in the country's history. However, Krenz retains the largely ceremonial position of presi dent. Krenz opened the Berlin Wall on Nov. 9 and had promised democratic reforms including free elections, but there were increased calls for his ouster even within the party because of his past links to Honecker's rule. Communists denounce Czechs PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia Communist leaders named a new government Sunday, but the opposi tion immediately denounced it be cause of the large number of hold overs from the last Cabinet. Opposition leaders called for a renewal of mass street protests. A few hundred people gathered on Prague's Wenceslas Square in the News in Brief night and urged people to show up for a rally Monday, chanting "Everybody here tomorrow!" The new govern ment includes five non-Communists, but the other 16 members are Com munists, and 13 served on the previ ous Cabinet. It failed to meet opposi tion demands for a non-Communist interior minister, who is in charge of police, and a civilian defense minis ter. Inspection uncovers lapses WASHINGTON A secret in spection of a federal nuclear weapons laboratory in California found seri ous security lapses last spring, in cluding poor protection of large amounts of plutonium, according to a congressional report released Sun day. The report also said the Energy Department from 1982 through 1988 misled the president, in its annual reports to the White House, about the adequacy of measures to protect weapons-grade nuclear materials from potential theft or sabotage. The report included a declassified transcript of a closed hearing last July in which several senior Energy De partment officials testified on secu rity and safeguards weaknesses in the nuclear weapons production and design complex.
