Vice President George Bush visited El Salvador and demanded in unequivocal terms an end to the political murders being carried out by right-wing extremists. Henry Kissinger, along with eight members of the bipartisan presidential commission he heads, was in Mexico and Venezuela gathering fact and opinion for the report that is scheduled to go to the President in early January. U.S. Special Envoy Richard Stone met with the President-elect of Venezuela and the President of Colombia...
