With only three weeks remaining until West Germany's March 6 national elections, the tall, affable leader was considering some heartening news. According to a poll published in the weekly magazine Der Spiegel, Kohl's Christian Democratic Party and its ally in Bavaria, the Christian Social Union, were leading the rival Social Democrats 49% to 42%.

...open the way to a Soviet-dominated state ruled by the hated Palestine Liberation Organization. B'nai B'rith acclaimed Reagan's plan specifically "because it asks Jordan to take responsibility for negotiating directly with Israel on the future of the West Bank and Gaza." Albert Spiegel, an unofficial adviser to Reagan on Jewish affairs, addressed a B'nai B'rith luncheon in Washington at which the pronouncement was discussed.
