NEWS SUMMARY: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1985

Date: 23 September 1985

International World economic officials discussed preparations to drive down the value of the dollar at a meeting in New York City. The objective of the decision between West Germany, France, Japan, Britain and the United States would be to improve the economies of the countries involved and in many others as well. The meeting is clearly tied to a speech that President Reagan is planning today. He is expected to propose a new trade policy in an effort to derail a movement in Congress toward protectionist laws to stem the flow of foreign goods into the country and the loss of jobs in the affected industries. [Page A1, Column 6.] Rescue efforts continued in stricken neighborhoods in Mexico City as estimates of casualties continued to rise. A presidential spokesman, Ricardo Ampudia, offered preliminary figures today of 1,700 known dead, with 2,000 others still believed trapped under fallen buildings. Six hundred other city residents have been hospitalized and 5,000 others have been treated for light injuries. Thousands more have been left homeless by last week's two earthquakes. [A1:3.]

Special to the New York Times

Twenty-five years ago, during a General Assembly session dominated by the antics of Nikita S. Khrushchev, a young Spanish diplomat jumped from his seat to challenge the Russian leader. Mr. Khrushchev, returning to his seat after a major address, had noticed that the Spanish delegation was not applauding him.

When Mr. Khrushchev began waving a finger in his challenger's face, the young man defiantly returned the gesture.

Five years of fighting between Iran and Iraq have resulted in a toll of war dead that may be approaching a million, according to intelligence estimates here. The estimates in London and in other NATO capitals range from 420,000 to 580,000 Iranian dead, with the number of Iraqi dead put at 300,000. Western intelligence officers agree that the number of deaths from wounds is high because most major operations have been carried out in intense heat, which kills the seriously wounded. ''We must accept an ultimate casualty total higher than anything experienced in the West since World War II,'' a senior intelligence official said.

In a process described as painful and divisive, senior Pentagon officials have been rewriting their five-year plan for weapons, personnel and operations in light of Congress' success in ending the Reagan Administration's military buildup. Delays in Purchases The cuts will mean long delays in the scheduled replacements of older tanks, aircraft, ships and missiles, the officials said in interviews over the last week. They will also sharply curtail efforts in the next five years to replenish stockpiles of ammunition and spare parts, key indicators of the ability to outlast an enemy in a conventional war, the Pentagon officials added.
