ECUADOR: McCAIN LEADS TALKS

Five United States senators arrived to discuss with President Gustavo Noboa
an offensive against drug trafficking in Colombia amid increasing signs of
spillover across the border from its neighbor's conflict. The delegation,
led by John McCain, Republican of Arizona, was scheduled to hold talks with
Mr. Noboa on "Plan Colombia," a $7.5 billion anti-drug program intended to
strengthen Colombian Army and police units.
