IF ANYTHING, GENDER GAP IS BECOMING EVEN WIDER
Date: 11 December 1983

While other leading political indicators, such as rising approval ratings for the President and squabbling among Democrats, presumably make cheerful reading at the White House, Mr. Reagan's problem with women keeps getting worse. The breadth of the problem is reflected in polls like the Nov. 11-20 New York Times Poll, which showed that only 38 percent of women, compared to 53 percent of men, think President Reagan deserves re-election, and that 49 percent of women, but just 33 percent of men, fear he will get the United States into a war. Negative feelings were plain to see in the rhetoric of the meeting of the National Organization for Women. Despite disagreements over endorsing former Vice President Mondale, leaders of the nation's largest feminist organization appeared determined to play an energetic role in the 1984 election, citing women's rights and the economy as causes for indicting the Administration.
MYOPIC POLICY TOWARD SYRIA
Date: 11 December 1983

President Hafez al-Assad of Syria has emerged from years of isolation and placed himself at the power switch of Middle East policy. As long as his health holds up, no one who seeks influence in the region can afford to ignore him. Yet the United States' reactions to his new power have been sadly shortsighted and simplistic. The more the United States becomes identified with the Lebanese Phalangists fighting the Druze and Shiites, the more Mr. Assad's leadership is strengthened. The more America views the Lebanese conflict through the prism of East-West relations, the more Mr. Assad needs a close relationship with Moscow, thus making Washington's conception a self-fulfilling prophecy.
THE FOE IN LEBANON: DIVIDED BUT STRONG

Military Analysis WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 - The composition of the hostile forces facing the Marine Corps, other Western troops and the Lebanese Army in Lebanon ranges from a depleted but aggressive battalion of Iranian Revolutionary Guards to bands from the Druse and Amal guerrilla forces, according to Pentagon officials. The number of men in these irregular forces engaged in operations varies from day to day, these sources said. There are, however, two constants. Between 6,000 and 7,000 Syrians serve with the guerrillas as officers, noncommissioned officers and technicians. In addition the Pentagon estimates that 100 Soviet officers tour the area of operations each day to check on troop dispositions, training and the use and maintenance of Russian weapons supplied to the guerrillas by Syria. Those Soviet officers disappear at sundown, the Pentagon sources say. The basic weakness of the irregular forces is the absence of an effective command and control structure. A band may decide on an operation and carry it out without telling other groups or the Syrian high command. The Syrian influence was described as pervasive, but it is clear, these sources said, that the Syrians do not have operational control of all their clients.

Then a civic group called Parkfriends installed a bronze entitled ''Playmates,'' by J. Seward Johnson Jr. of Princeton, N.J. It showed three boys gazing at a centerfold of Playboy magazine.

Tense Ending toA Space Story The space shuttle Columbia and its international cargo of scientific gold came home last week - a little late, but worth the wait. It will probably take a long time for scientists to digest all the experiments performed in the piggy-backing Spacelab, and for astronauts to forget the gut- wrenching jolt that triggered the landing delay.

Missile Talks:Soviet Drops HalfThe Other ShoeThe United States and the Soviet Union won't be talking to each other in Geneva for a while. Two weeks after breaking off negotiations on medium-range missiles in Europe, Moscow stepped up its pressure on Western opinion by refusing to set a date for the resumption of parallel talks on strategic arms reductions after a scheduled two-month recess. Last week's Soviet move was couched in less peremptory terms than Moscow used in ending the European missile negotiations; Washington said, in fact, it did not sound like a walkout. The Russians said NATO's deploying the first of 572 Pershing 2 and cruise missiles, the reason they gave for discontinuing the European theater talks, had also changed the ''global strategic situation'' and made it ''necessary for the Soviet side to review all problems which are under discussion at the Start negotiations.''

Western Europe's dreams of economic togetherness grew noticeably dimmer last week. In three days of stormy meetings in Athens, leaders of the European Economic Community's 10 member countries couldn't reconcile their corrosive differences or even pretend they had.
Rabbit Slaughter
Date: 11 December 1983

Two years ago this month some 600 farmers in Jefferson County, Idaho, after losing hundreds of thousands of dollars in hay and grain to voracious jack rabbits, went on the warpath. With horses, motorcycles and much whooping and hollering, they rounded up at least 30,000 jack rabbits and clubbed them to death with baseball bats, ax handles and tire irons. Amid denunciations by national conservation groups, Gov. John V. Evans appointed a Special Task Force on Rabbit Control to consider more humane measures. Rabbits are no big problem this year, says Dr. W. Greg Nelson, the State Veterinarian and chairman of the task force. ''They run in cycles of 10 years,'' he explains, and the latest cycle peaked in the winter of 1981-82. Then predators and diseases like tularemia kill the rabbits, he says.
