The Agency also was re ported to considering the use of More unmanned rockets in constructing the station up tread of relying solely on shuttles. _ Itro Nauls also said in the memorandum that it was morally wrong for the Mency to move ahead with the cur Ren relation design with the intent to change it later. The memorandum said Nasa has been criticized severely re Nelly for letting program objectives ride Good judgment is it happen ing again Mark Jess a spokesman at Nasa  in Washington said it was  to have this kind of dialog at this stage of the program Ril i98s, Nasa engineers and Man Flors have been defining the nature an discs of a Large orbiting space station preparing preliminary designs. A detailed design would not be Ini cd until next Spring. The current plan to have the station operating by 19945m995. But Hess said it was premature to con clude that Nasa would undertake a major redesign of the station.

People Don t want political moral crusade poll finds by the los Angeles times although americans today Are almost universally religious and Are worried about declining standards of morality they Are in no mood to launch a moral crusade through the National political process the los Angeles times poll has found. People want to keep religion out of government and Are leery or preachers turned politicians. And this is bad news for any cleric inclined to step into the National political Arena particularly Tele vision evangelist Pat Robertson who will compete next month in the first event of the 1988 Republican presiden tial Campaign in Michigan. It also Means that the Republican party and its presidential contenders probably should tread cautiously in their escalating efforts to attract the votes of White Christian fundamentalists. In fact. The times Survey found that these fundamentalists frequently hold views that Are outside the mainstream of Republican political thought. If the gop is perceived As catering to the conserva Tive fundamentalists it risks alienating the people who make up the Core of the party s constituency which tends to be even More moderate on Many social is sues than Are registered democrats. Americans retain not Only their historic regard for separation of Church and state out also their traditional reluctance to let government meddle in their per Sonal fives. By a 5-3 ratio people surveyed by the times said that they be come More annoyed when government intrudes into the private lives of citizens than when it protect activities that flout traditional family  still there Are some areas where significant numbers of americans Are will ing to allow government intrusion int private lives. For example nearly half the Public favors the quarantining of aids patients the Survey showed. In California where the november ballot will contain an initiative measure sponsored by Fol Lowers of Lyndon Larouche that among other things would allow health officials to quarantine aids victims the statewide Public is evenly divided on the Issue. A Quarter of those interviewed said that they believe aids is a punishment god has Given homosexuals for he Way they  a third thought homosexual relations Between consenting adults in the privacy of their own Homes should be illegal. Only half believed that any sexual behaviour by adults in their own bedrooms i none of the Law s business. Recently in a Georgia sodomy Case the . Supreme court upheld the authority of states to ban homosexual acts Between consenting adults. Also the Survey found that nine out of 10 adults think it should be illegal to sell pornography to minors under age 18. And about four in 10 said that they think there should be Laws against the distribution of pornography whatever the  this expression of Public senti ment is particularly timely because of a recent report by the attorney general s commission on pornography which called for a crackdown by All Levels of government on the estimated $8 billion a year smut Industry. The los Angeles times poll inter viewed 2,405 american adults nation wide by Telephone for six Days from july 9 to july 14. Included were 522 registered republicans and 667  margin of error for the entire Survey was 3 percent in either  among those interviewed were 412 persons representing 17 percent of the Sample identified by times poll director . Lewis As Christian fundamentalists. These people All said they believe the Bible is the actual word of god and is to be taken literally word for word that the have tried to encourage someone to be Lieve in Jesus Christ or to accept him As their Savior and that they have been born again or have had a born again sex  the margin of error just for the fundamentalists was 5 percent. In tabulating the fundamentalists responses the poll paid special attention to Whites who outnumber their non White religious Brethren by nearly 5-1 and have the potential for playing a significant role in the Republican party s 1988 presidential nominating process. Christian fundamentalists make up roughly one sixth of the White population which usually teeters be tween Republican and democratic Camps and one fourth of the Black populace which traditionally votes solidly Democrat
