Central American policy issues also made demands on the Administration. Significantly, a U.S. official met with the political leadership of El Salvador's leftist rebels last week. In Washington, the bipartisan commission charged with recommending long-range U.S. policy concerning the often neglected nations of Central America began its deliberations, taking testimony from two former Presidents and four retired Secretaries of State.

Once an agreement was reached in March, the negotiators began lobbying local Chambers of Commerce, county commissioners, and ranchers who graze cattle on the strip.
