It was not known whether the attack was a prelude to an all-out assault on the Moslem sector of the city, but loudspeakers on the tanks told civilians, in Arabic: "Please leave. The planes are coming very shortly." The purpose of the attack could be to cut off Palestinian refugee camps from the rest of the city.

Associated Press correspondent Tom Baldwin, reporting from the Christian sector of East Beirut, saw a column of 20 to 25 tanks and armored personnel carriers move intj West Beirut across the midcity dividing line about 3:30 a.m. (6:30 p.m. yesterday Tucson time). The Israeli forces slashed into West Beirut at the Museum crossing, one of three major crossing points between the Christian and Moslem sectors, while artillery from land and sea pounded the coastal area south of the city's center. A PLO communique claimed the guerrillas drove back five Israeli attempts to penetrate West Beirut between 1 and 5 a.m.

But Baldwin reported an hour later, at 6 a.m., that Israeli soldiers were visible in the woods behind the race course near the Museum crossing. Western correspondents in West Beirut who approached the Corniche Mazraa, the dividing line between the refugee camps on the south and the chief residential areas of the Moslem sector, could not see how far the Israeli tanks advanced. Israeli tanks moved up to the 3-mile-long Green Line at several mid-city locations to pound the guerrilla See ISRAELIS, Page 4A Stockman warns of big benefits cut By David Espo The Associated Press WASHINGTON Budget director David Stockman said yesterday that Congress will have to cut billions of dollars from social programs next year "beyond what we have done" to hold down budget deficits.

The FBI agent, Joseph D. Pistone, testified at a racketeering trial in Federal District Court in Manhattan. He described a 1981 conversation with Dominick "Sonny Black" Napolitano in a Brooklyn bar. "Sonny asked me to come to the back of the lounge to talk," Pistone said, recalling the conversation with Napolitano, who was a captain in the Bonanno organization.

"We took care of those three guys they're gone," Pistone quoted Napolitano. Then, he said, Napolitano told him to kill a man who had apparently fled to Florida. "If you find him hit him," the agent quoted Napolitano as saying. Weather Look for rainbows.

"I strongly believe that the protection of innocent life is and has always been a legitimate, and indeed the first, duty of government. Believing that, I favor human-life legislation. This national tragedy of abortion on demand must end." He urged "speedy consideration" of three human-life bills pending in the Senate.

By Maureen Santini The Associated Press HARTFORD, Conn. President Reagan told a Roman Catholic audience yesterday that the "national tragedy of abortion on demand must end," and said his call for nuclear-weapons reductions renders "obsolete" proposals for a mere freeze. The president reasserted his opposition to unnecessary government intrusion into the lives of Americans, and then went on to advocate tax credits for private-school tuition, a constitutional amendment to allow prayer in public schools and legislation to restrict abortions.

As examples of the kind of government involvement he objects to, Reagan cited federal financing of abortions for poor women and forced busing to achieve school integration.

Jones, a federal prosecutor, Pistone explained to the jury that he had pretended he would search for the intended target in Miami. In his testimony, Pistone recalled that one of the defendants, Benjamin Ruggiero, had once told him about Joseph Bonanno, the founder of the crime family who "retired" to Tucson more than 10 years ago.

The agent quoted Ruggiero as saying he had been the chauffeur for Rusty Rastelli, the "underboss" who was "trying to chase Joe Bonanno out of the family." The undercover work of Pistone, who used the name Donnie Brasco while posing as a gangster, has been described by the authorities as the deepest infiltration of organized crime ever achieved by the FBI.
