WANTS KENNEDY N 1984
Young say
EAST LANSING tUPI) - Former
United Nations Ambassador Andrew
Young said yesterday he would support
Sen. Edward Kennedy for president in
1984 - but will campaign next year for
President Carter.
Young, who resigned in August, also
said in a speech he felt Israel had been
created to atone for America's guilt
over ignoring the Jewish Holocaust of
World War II.

Still the game to play
Still the place to play it

he'll support Carter next year
but not this year," Young told a news
conference following the address to
Michigan State University students.
"I hope he's president of the United
States some day. I'd rather see Carter
president of it right now."
Young said he did not think Kennedy
was ready for the presidency.
"IT'S A VERY complicated job," the
former ambassador said. "This is an
almost impossible country to manage."
Young said he would be willing to
work in connection with the Carter
campaign, though he will not serve on
the re-election committee.
In his speech to a crowd of about 1,500
persons, Young said he felt the furor
over his meeting with a Palestinian
representative forced his resignation.
"I FELT LIKE I was an innocent
bystander," he said. "I wasn't trying to
cause any trouble - I was just trying to
be a good neighbor."
However, he said he did not think his
resignation diminished his influence in
the Carter administration.
"My power, my -influence has never
depended on a job," Young said. "I had
that influence before I was elected to
Congress, before I joined the ad-
ministration."
HE SAID HE did not want to hang on-
to the UN post in the face of opposition.
"I said, 'take your job - I'm going to
keep my integrity.' "
Young said the U.S. should listen to
the problems of the Palestinians, ad-
ding that Israel was created to atone for
the guilt of the United States for failing
to halt the Holocaust during World War
II.
"WHIEN WE created Israel, we didn't
take American land, we took somebody
else's - and that somebody else was
Palestine," Young said. "We made
somebody else pay for our guilt."
His remarks were met with shouts
from several members of the audience,
who held up a sign reading, "Blessed
are the peacemakers - cursed are the
terrorists."
One of the hecklers called Young's
statement "absolute nonsense.
"He plays into the worst hands of
prejudice when he makes those
statements," said Daniel Allen, a self-
proclaimed Zionist. "They're also
historically inaccurate."
After the shouts ended, Young called
for further U.S. dialogue with
Palestinian representatives.
"There can be no peace for anyone in
the Middle East unless we talke about
peace for Palestine," he said.

POPE AIR FORCE BASE, N.C. (AP)
Capt. Robert Coronado, an avowed
homosexual who was convicted of con-
duct unbecoming an officer, was
dismissed from the Air Force yester-
day.
The dismissal, equivalent to a
dishonorable discharge for an enlisted
man, will be automatically appealed.
CORONADO, 32, of San Diego, Calif.,
was convicted on Saturday of conduct
unbecoming an officer for committing a
homosexual act. Besides dismissal, he
could have been sentenced to five years
at hard labor by the jury of five Air
Force officers.
"I feel that we're going to win,"
Coronado said, referring to his appeal.
"I feel that it will be a long and involved
and costly fight but we will win."
The case automatically goes to the
21st Air Force headquarters for review.
It will then go to the Court of Military
Review and the Court of Military Ap-
peals. During the appeals process,
Coronado may remain on the job and
collect his regular pay or may go on un-
paid leave.
EARLIER YESTERDAY, Coronado
had told a presentencing hearing that
the Air Force must learn to deal with
homosexuals.
"What I am and what other people
are cannot be denied," he said. "It can
be overlooked. . . but it must be dealt
with.
Coronado never denied allegations
that he engaged in homosexual
relations with a young soldier from
nearby Fort Bragg. Homosexual acts
are considered conduct unbecoming an
officer under Air Force regulations.
CORONADO WAS accused of
homosexually raping a young soldier
from nearby Fort Bragg on Aug. 17,
1978. Pfc. Jonathan Heaton said he was
hitchhiking when Coronado picked him
up, took him to an apartment, tied him
down and forced him to have sex.
However, Heaton admitted last week
that he lied about being tied down,
although he maintained that force was
used.
In convicting Coronado on Saturday,
the jury said Coronado did not force
Heaton to have sex with him. The of-"
ficer could have been sentenced to up to
10 years at hard labor if he had been
convicted of using force.
Coronado did not testify during his
trial, but he said yesterday that his
lifestyle has not interfered with his
ditues as a flight nurse in the First
Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron at
Pope.

bgitn Chi na tour
PEKING (UPI) - Gov. William
Milliken and six other U.S. governors
arrived in Peking yesterday for a 16-
day tour of China in quest of friendly
contacts and Chinese business for their
states.
The seven governors raised to 12 the
number of American state executives
who have visited China since the two
countries normalized their diplomatic
relations Jan. 1.
"THIS IS a great year in Chinese-
American relations," said Milliken, of-
ficial leader of the group. "President
Carter has urged individual states to
seek ties with China and has en-
couraged visits such as the one we have
undertaken."
The governors are guests of the
Chinese Peoples Institute of Foreign
Affairs, an unofficial arm of the foreign
ministry. American sponsors of the
tour are the National Committee on
U.S. China Relations and the National
Governors Association.
Besides Milliken,' they are Govs.
Robert Ray of Iowa, George Ariyoshi of
Hawaii, Thomas Judge of Montana,
Richard Snelling of Vermont, Richard
Lamm of Colorado and Albert Quie of
Minnesota. All except Judge brought
their wives with them.
THEY WILL Oe in Peking until
Friday. Besides Peking, their schedule
calls for them to visit the cities of Jinan
in Shandong Province, Nanjing and
Shanghai.
After departing China via Shanghai
Friday, the governors will travel to
Thailand for an inspection, of Viet-
namese refugee camps.
In Peking, their tentative schedule
for today called for them to meet
Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Han-
Nianlong and Vice Minister of'
Agriculture He Kang. Tomorrow they
will go to the tombs of Emperors of
China's Ming Dynasty and visit the
Great Wall of China about 90 miles nor-
th of the city,
Snelling, a wealthy industrialist, said
he is in China partly to seek business for
his state. "Vermont is a prime state for
machine tools," he said. "I hope to get
some insight into China's industrial
needs.
"As a manufacturer, I am interested
in the art of management," Snelling
said. "I will be very interested to see
how that is developing in China."

El Salvador army
overthrows president
From Reuter and AP,
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador -
Army rebels seized four key military
barracks yesterday, forcing President
Carlos Humberto Romero from office,
diplomatic and rebel sources said. The
reports said Romero fled the country
and one officer was killed.
The El Salvador armed forces an-
nounced yesterday they had over-
thrown Romero to "restore con-
stitutional order" in the Central
American country.
An armed forces communique read
over state radio said General Romero,
who came to power in disputed elec-
tions two years ago would be replaced
by a civilian-military junta.
The communique said the makeup of
the junta would be announced later.
In the meantime, Colonel Adolfo Arr
noldo Majano,,41, deputy director of the
military school, the country's
equivalent of West Point in the United
States, and Colonel Jaime Abdul
Gutierrez, 41, head of the military's
maintenance department, would exer-
cise power.
The usually reliable diplomatic sour-
ces said Romero left by commercial
airline bound for the United States with
his family. No details on the flight were
provided.
