The article presents political updates of various countries. Both Colomancagua and Mesa Grande, the two main Salvadoran refugee camps in Honduras-each holding about 10,000 people-have long been the objects of intense U.S. pressure, directed through the Honduran government and the Office of the United Nations High' Commissioner for Refugees which superintends the camps. The Deng Xiaoping, a Chinese communist leader, regime has lowered the child-per-family limit from two to one. With a policy encouraging large communes, the allure of female infanticide would be diminished.
