01 of of of of of of of of 4-A THE GALVESTON DAILY NEWS WEDNESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 15, 1989 National report Judge in North's trial places prosecutors on honor system WASHINGTON The judge in Oliver L. North's case said Tuesday the Justice Department must rely on independent prosecutors to prevent surprise disclosures of state secrets during the IranContra trial. U.S. District Judge Gerbard A. Gesell rejected a proposal he said would have allowed the Justice Department during the trial to file objections "in bits and pieces" to disclosing information needed by the defense.

Gesell challenged the Attorney General Dick Thornburgh to end the case once and for all, by filing an affidavit barring disclosure of secrets, if Thornburgh believed procedures the judge has adopted are inadequate to protect national security. "He can act now if he wants," Gesell told Thornburgh aide Stephen A. Saltzburg. The decision means the Justice Department must decide whether it can rely on independent counsel Lawrence E. Walsh to protect secrets that the department has said could endanger lives if disclosed in court.

"'Our lawyers are reviewing the judge's order," said Thornburgh aide David Runkel, adding that Justice Department officials have been meeting with the independent counsel. "There are a number of things being discussed back and forth," Runkel said. "It's a question of reviewing the options. We want the trial to continue but we want to safeguard against the unauthorized release of classified information," Runkel said. In the meantime, Gesell said he will await a Supreme Court ruling on whether the trial will be stayed Oliver North leaving court indefinitely while an appellate court reviews the Justice Department's objection to secrecy procedures already put in place by the judge.

The high court, which has temporarily stayed the trial's start, will meet Friday to discuss the issue. The proposal was aimed at preventing surprise disclosures by North, and it was strongly opposed by the former National Security Council aide's lawyers.
