U.S. may suspend missile treaty
unless Soviets dismantle radar
By BRENDA WATSON
Associated Press Writer
GENEVA The United States
said yesterday it may suspend or
terminate the 1972 Anti-Ballistic
Missile treaty unless the Soviet
Union dismantles a Siberian radar
complex.
A statement from the U.S. dele
gation to a week-long conference
that reviewed the agreement left
no doubt that Washington was dis
satisfied with the Kremlin re
sponse to U.S. concerns about the
Krasnoyarsk radar installation.
The statement said the United
States has “made clear that the
continuing existence of the Kras
noyarsk radar makes it impossible
to conclude any future arms
agreements in the START or de
fense and space areas.”
White House spokesman Marlin
Fitzwater said the administration
would continue efforts for a treaty
on limiting long-range nuclear
forces, known as START, but said
there was little prospect of doing so
before President Reagan leaves
office in January.
“We are still meeting in Geneva
and still working toward a START
treaty ... in the hope that it (the

Soviet radar) will be dismantled in
the interim,” he said.
Fitzwater was in Santa Barbara,
Calif., with the vacationing presi
dent.
Negotiations on limiting inter
continental nuclear forces and on
space and defense systems are
separate, parallel talks that have
continued in Geneva since March
1985.
The Soviet Union made no imme
diate comment but the chief Soviet
delegate, Viktor Karpov, sched
uled a news conference for today.
The U.S. team was led by the
director of the Arms Control and
Disarmament Agency, William
Burns.
The U.S. statement said that
during the review conference, the
third of its kind, “the Soviet Union
gave no indication that it was pre
pared to correct the violations (of
the ABM treaty) without linking
their agreement to do so to unac
ceptable demands.”
The statement referred to the
Krasnoyarsk radar installation,
which the United States for years
has been saying violates the ABM
treaty because of its location and
orientation.
It said the U.S. side also raised
the question of two other radars
that the Soviets deployed last year
in Gomel, near Kiev.
The ABM treaty limits each side
to deploying one ABM system com
prising a radar and anti-ballistic
missiles. It also constrains early
warning radars which could, be
cause of their location, orientation
and capability, contribute to an
ABM defense.
The U.S. side charges that the
Krasnoyarsk radar is such an in
stallation.
“The Krasnoyarsk violation is
very serious, particularly when it
is recognized that the radar consti
tutes one of a network of such
radars that have the inherent po
tential for attack assessment in
support of ballistic missile de
fense,” the statement said.
The aim of the ABM treaty is to
prevent either side from creating a
nationwide protective network, un
der the theory that neither side
would launch a nuclear attack if
there was a possibility of devastat
ing retaliation.
Karpov said in July that the
Soviet Union would dismantle the
Krasnoyarsk radar equipment, but
not the building housing it, if the
United States agreed to renew its
commitment to the ABM treaty for
at least 10 years.

Historic parks expanding
services to improve quality
By MARINA BARE
Collegian Staff Writer
Allegheny Portage Railroad Na
tional Historic Site, in Cresson, and
Johnstown Flood National Memorial,
near St. Michael’s, are planning ex
panded visitor services that will im
prove the quality of park services, a
park official said.
Johnstown Flood Site Director John
Bundy said the Johnstown Flood Na
tional Memorial is building a 7,000-
square foot visitor center that will be
finished in the spring of 1989. “It is an
improvement over the 500-square foot
building we’re using now," Bundy
said.
A site concept study proposed in
1987 by the National Park Service is
currently under consideration at the
Allegheny Portage Railroad site.
Proposals include making im
provements in the visitor center and
the Engine House, a building which
provides a technical history of the
railroad and a working reproduction
of a train similar to the original
Allegheny Portage railroad trains.
“There is no construction yet, but I
feel there is a good chance that it will
be started by the early 19905,” said
Larry Trombello, supervisory park
ranger at the railroad.
Both parks, which are free and
open year-round, offer visitors a slice
of the rich history of Pennsylvania’s
railroads and the Johnstown flood.

The Johnstown Flood Memorial is
located at the point where the South
Fork Dam broke in 1889, releasing
two-mile long Lake Conemaugh. One
of the memorial’s historical artifacts
is the telegraph key used at South
Fork Dam to warn Johnslown that
the dam was about to break, Bundy
said.
The original farmhouse at South
Fork is being restored for the centen
nial of the flood. The South Fork
Fishing and Hunting Club house in
the village of St. Michael is also being
restored to some of its original splen
dor. The club was owned by Pitts
burgh industrialists at the time of the
flood, Bundy said.
Johnstown Memorial celebrated
National Park Service Day on Aug. 25
with guided tours of the park by
people in period costumes, he said.
“Allegheny Portage Railroad has
remnants of the original track and
items used in its construction, such as
iron ties and rails,” Trombello said.
A full scale model of the railcars
used at the time is on display at the
park. Tools found on the site and a
few household items also are on dis
play in historic Lemon House, Trom
bello said.
In addition to the historical aspects
of Allegheny Portage Railroad, the
park also offers hiking and picnic
areas, and cross-country skiing in the
winter.
