    REAGAN REFUSED to endorse a call for an AIDS
anti-discrimination law.
   While the president directed all federal employees to
refrain from bias against those infected with the AIDS virus,
he declined to embrace a White House panel's recommendation
for federal anti-discrimination legislation.  Reagan issued a
10-point program on AIDS and ordered the attorney general to
review whether further action is needed.  He also urged
American businesses, unions and schools to consider adopting
policies based on the federal rules.
   Reagan disappointed some AIDS activists who believe the
stronger actions recommended in June by the presidential
commission are necessary.
