tw. ican market without restriction," he told the Monterrey daily El Norte. "But ours are detained at customs, and there are always many restrictions." Bush got a red-carpet airport greeting, then traveled with Salinas by helicopter to Salinas' hometown of Agualeguas, a small fanning and cattle community about 60 miles northeast of Monterrey. Salinas took Bush to a charro, or rodeo, where the two presidents were tieless while their wives wore light suits under a glaring sun. It was the sixth time Bush and Salinas have met since they were both elected in 1988, but Bush's first trip to Mexico as president.

Salinas, introducing Bush at the rally, hailed what he said was "a new relationship between our countries" as Mexico assumes its "new place in the world." "Geography made us forced neighbors, history made us wary neighbors, may our will and vision of the future make us respectful and progressive neighbors," Salinas said. "Mexico has changed, faithful to its principles and traditions but looking to the future with liberty and sovereignty to become a modern, competitive and just nation," said Salinas. Today, the two were to meet for more talks and Bush was to address a group of Mexican business leaders in Monterrey, a manufacturing city of more than 3 million only 143 miles from Laredo, in Texas, Bush's adopted homestate. Iraq and Kuwait, boosting its exports to the United States by 100,000 barrels a day. There are 42 gallons in each barrel.

"I've come to Mexico tonight with a message of respect and hope for a brighter future shared by our two countries," Bush said. He called the ending of trade barriers vital to both nations. "I believe that U.S.-Mexican relations have never been better," Bush said in his first official visit as president. White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said that, at their first session, the two leaders focused on the proposed free-trade agreement. "Both presidents are interested in pursuing the agreement as fast as possible and attach high priority to its successful conclusion," Fitzwater said.

He said Bush and Salinas also talked about increasing cooperation in the war against drugs and working more closely to end border violence. Bush and Salinas discussed the situation in El Salvador and agreed "to press for a cease-fire and a negotiated settlement to the situation," Fitzwater said. Despite warm greetings the two presidents paid one another, Salinas signaled difficult trade talks ahead, accusing the United States of trade protectionism even before his guest arrived.

The resolution will give a time for him to think straight, knowing what the future could be, how bleak the future could be, if he does not withdraw his forces from Kuwait," Vorontsov said. High drama filled the United Nations as representatives of the United States, Britain, France, China, and the Soviet Union, the five permanent Security Council members, met three times in 24 hours seeking to hammer into final shape the historic resolution that would, in effect, authorize a multinational attack on Iraq's occupation army in Kuwait and possibly on Iraq itself. The council is scheduled to convene Thursday with Secretary of State James Baker III in the president's seat to consider the use-of-force resolution. But some diplomats said that the actual vote could come Friday the last day before the United States must yield the presidency of the council to Yemen, which has shown some sympathy to Iraq.

The council presidency rotates once a month. U.S. diplomats, confident that they had enough votes to ensure the resolution's passage, lobbied other council members, including the seven non-aligned nations holding Security Council seats.

Fifty-one Air Force members from Kirtland will leave this morning to support Operation Desert Shield, according to base spokesman George Pearce. Pearce said specialists in civil engineering will leave on a commercial flight at 7:40 a.m. They will join about 100 Kirtland men and women already in the Persian Gulf area. Larry Calloway OF THE JOURNAL Life in The New World Odor EEP BREATHERS: Lemme see if I'm in touch with my feelings on this: Sandia National Laboratories, maker of nuclear weapons, signs a $900,000 contract with a Berkeley couple to help it cope with the end of the Cold War.

Some embarrassed participants say they were made to relax and do deep breathing in dark rooms. The Berkeley couple write that their work involves "the early stages of organizing a major transformational change What I feel here is greed and envy that I can't get $900,000 for talking like that and sitting in dark rooms. I feel resentment and anger that I can't even get $900,000 for talking straight in the light of day. I feel deep satirical awe and wonder at how Big Science coped before the revelations of cult psychology. How did the people of the Manhattan Project, father of all the labs, cope with living under constant surveillance and discovering "death, destroyer of worlds?" A book of essays published by the Los Alamos Historical Society in 1988 gives some clues.

The essays are by women who coped with wartime Los Alamos, and one of them, Jean Bacher, wrote that the people on The Hill had two basic outlets: outdoor exercise and wild parties. They hiked, skiied, ice-skated, golfed and rode horseback up there during the days. And on Saturday nights, she wrote, "Large dances, which often turned into binges, were popular." When the atomic bomb worked, she wrote, the British scientists put on a huge party involving food, drink and skits. It only cost $500, but then those people weren't under career stress because most knew they would return to universities after the war, and most did. Meanwhile, Los Alamos National Laboratory in the past few months brought in its own consultant, at hundreds not hundreds of thousands of dollars, on the New World Order.

Michael S. Josephson, creator of a non-profit foundation on ethics, led discussions with personnel and "human resources" managers on the ethics of continuing weapons research when there's no Cold War rationale. NEXT CASE: New Mexicans have an affinity for Peru, I think. Andrea Heckman, for example, runs wilderness tours in Peru in the summer and operates a store called, cleverly, "Andean Software" at Taos Ski Valley in the winter. Actress Shirley MacLaine became a best-selling author by telling about her mystical insights in Peru and at Christina Griscom's Light Institute of Galisteo, near Santa Fe.

So now hear this: In Poland on Sunday, Stanislaw Tyminski came out of nowhere to become the runoff opponent of Lech Walesa for president. Tyminski, it turns out, is a dual citizen of Canada and Peru. In Peru last summer, Alberto Fujimori, son of Japanese immigrants, came out of nowhere to become the runoff opponent of the world-renowned Peruvian novelist Mario Vargas Llosa and beat him, becoming president. What's going on in the world? What is this Peruvian effect in politics which reaches Poland and might even have disseminated from New Mexico, like the horse in North America? Today in Santa Fe, Bruce King will announce some important appointments. We'll know more about the Peruvian effect if Shirley MacLaine comes out of nowhere and becomes the next state engineer.

Stephen Watts Kearny, the oft-misspelled U.S. conqueror of our oft-missing state: "In the lobby of the Legends Hotel at the Angel Fire ski resort is a long list of names painted prominently on a wall.

Gorbachev Warns Iraq 'Time Is Running Out' '86 '87 88 '89 APJohn Hancock mas Pickering briefed council members on the latest draft resolution by the "big five." The document demands that Iraq obey previous votes of the council, including immediate and unconditional withdrawal of its forces from Kuwait. The resolution authorizes the use of military force in January and requests states concerned to keep the Security Council regularly informed on the progress of any actions taken against Iraq. "I think we are going to have a very serious resolution," Vorontsov said after that meeting. "This gives a very strong signal to Iraq's government that members of the Security Council meant business from Day One," said Mohammad A.

Abulhasan, Kuwait's U.N. ambassador. "This is a deadline for him that the patience of the international community is drawing very thin." U.S. officials professed confidence Monday that they had at least the required number of votes nine to pass the resolution. But among the five permanent council members, it was unclear whether China would abstain or vote for the measure.

Chinese sources at the United Nations said the phrasing of the resolution which avoids the word force no longer posed a problem. But they indicated that the Chinese government still was uncomfortable about setting a deadline in January. "There will be big bargaining," a Chinese source said. i Mikhail Gorbachev Tells Iraq to get out of Kuwait tion remains based on principles, and it includes the following: Aggression is inadmissible. It should be punished, and the pre-aggression state should be restored." Given the timing, Gorbachev's remarks were considered a clear warning to Iraq to abandon Kuwait.

taxpayer with property with a market value of $100,000 would pay an additonal $40 a year for seven years, Patterson said. According to the brochure, a number of districts in surrounding states have tried year-round, multitrack schools and prove "that it is a costly mistake not to provide sufficient schools for a traditional calendar curriculum." The parents' group is launching its campaign now in hopes of getting the schools built before 1992, he said. Three APS elementary schools piloted year-round calendars last year and are into their second year. An additional three elementary schools started on the. schedule this year.

AN A daily roundup of events concerning the crisis in the Persian Gulf: Kuwaiti warns of long siege: Kuwait's finance minister, Sheik Ali Khalifa Al-Sabah, said Iraq can resist the U.N. economic sanctions for a very long time because its centralized economy allows Saddam to shift resources easily. Progress would become apparent only "over a very long period," he said in a speech in Washington. More reserve troops called up: The Army ordered 10,567 more military reservists to active duty, bringing to more than 90,000 the number of part-time soldiers, airmen and sailors activated by the Pentagon since early August. The latest call-up included two brigades of National Guard combat troops, one from Louisiana and another from Georgia.

British predict quick victory: In Saudi Arabia, two top British commanders predicted that allied forces would defeat Iraqi forces in "days or weeks" if war breaks out. The additional ground forces on their way to the Gulf will effectively counter Iraq's current numerical superiority, they said. With the allies superior in the air and sea, "I think it will be a swift war," says Lt. Gen. Sir Peter de la Billiere, commander of British forces in the gulf.

Concurring was Air Chief Marshal Sir Patrick Hine. Saddam lets three hostages go: Saddam Hussein told the visiting wives of three American hostages in Iraq that they were free to take their husbands with them when they return home, the nation's official INA news agency reported. The announcement spurred new hope among 16 American spouses who plan to visit Baghdad next week to provide comfort to their husbands. Among those 16 family members is Sue RICHARD PIPES JOURNAL Shield Vinton of Santa Fe, whose 58-year-old husband Robert was taken hostage Aug. 25 as one of Saddam's "human shields." Vinton said she will join the group Dec.

3 in New York, the starting point of their journey to Baghdad via Amman, Jordan. Vinton, 49, said Monday she won't believe the trip is a reality until she's actually on an airplane bound for the Middle East. Should there be a change of dates, she added, she'll cancel the trip. "I go on the 3rd or I don't go at all," she said. The State Department restated its opposition to such trips.

"We consider it risky and we don't think it helps. Saddam Hussein's playing with hostages is just cynical manipulation of people and we don't think that people should be involved in it," said spokesman Richard Boucher. fl Hostages moved to Baghdad: More than 100 Americans, Britons and other Europeans held at strategic sites in Kuwait have been moved to Baghdad. U.S. and British diplomats said the Western hostages in Kuwait including five Americans and 70 Britons were brought to the Mansour Melia Hotel in the Iraqi capital.

The diplomats, however, were unsure if the Westerners would replace Germans allowed to leave strategic sites inside Iraq or were brought to Baghdad to be released. DMore Marines deployed: The Marine Corps disclosed that it is sending to the Gulf the 6th Marine Expeditionary Brigade, a regular unit of about 15,000 Marines based at Camp Lejeune, N.C. Three Marine expeditionary brigades already are in the Gulf area and the Pentagon announced Nov. 8 that the 5th Marine Expeditionary Brigade of Camp Pendleton, was heading there. the issue, said principal Charles Serns.

Also invited to speak was a parent who had children go through a year-round schedule and who didn't agree with it. "Some vocal people in the audience disapproved (of year-round scheduling)," Serns said. "But most appeared to come to listen to the pros and cons." Serns said his school's enrollment is about 700, and he doesn't believe it would be one of the schools forced to go year-round under the APS policy. He said he felt each school should be able to choose which schedule best fits the needs of its students. Patterson said he launched d.e campaign because switching to year-rofl schools is LOS ANGELES TIMES MOSCOW Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, warning Iraq's leader Saddam Hussein that "time is running out," said Monday that the Kremlin will agree to tougher U.N.

actions if Iraq does not withdraw from Kuwait immediately. "If Iraq really wants a settlement in the entire region and seeks to avoid the worst, it must now openly declare it will pull out of Kuwait and show this with action, release hostages and in general stop preventing foreigners from leaving Iraq," Gorbachev said. "Otherwise, a U.N. Security Council resolution will be passed a tough resolution," he told Iraqi Foreign Minister Tarik Aziz, in remarks reported by the official Tass news agency. Aziz's visit to Moscow came within days of the Security Council's scheduled look at a new resolution on a response to the Kuwait invasion.

The five permanent members of the Security Council, including the Soviet Union, have agreed in principle on a January deadline for Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait, it was disclosed Monday. The deadline will be subject to further negotiations before the council gets it. In Moscow, Gorbachev told the Supreme Soviet, the national legislature: "Our posi- a significant change, and he wants the district and the community to discuss it thoroughly. "This is not a Dennis Chavez problem," he said. "I truly believe we are going to a 200-day school year in the next 10 years, and we need to have space available." The current APS school year is 180 days.

Patterson said new elementary schools are needed in the La Cueva neighborhood in the far Northeast Heights; Four Hills, which also serves the Sandia Base neighborhood; Rio Rancho; and the West Gate area on the West Mesa. Rio Rancho also needs a middle school, as does the La Cueva attea, he said.

APS officials say the benefits of year-round education are eliminating the three-month summer gap in schooling and allowing more students to use one school. An informational meeting on year-round schools last week at Hubert Humphrey Elementary School sponsored by the school's parent-teacher group drew about 100 people. Another meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Thursday at Dennis Chavez Elementary, Patterson said. The purpose of the meeting at Hubert Humphrey was to give the community a chance to hear an APS spokesman discuss.
