Egyptian
coup d'etat
defeated
BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - Trav-
elers arriving from Cairo yester-
day said about 300 Egyptian army
fficers and soldiers were arrested
last week following an abortive at-
tempt to overthrow the govern-
ment of President Anwar Sadat.
The informant said the attempt-
ed coup was put down less than an
hour after it started. They report-
ed a brief fire fight near the Al
Hussein Mosque in the eastern I
outskirts of Cairo, but they had!
no word of any casualties.
The travelers said some diplo-
matic sources in Cairo had con-
firmed general information on the
attempted coup, but their ver-
sions differed in detail. Nothing
had been published in Cairo about
it.
The informants said rumors
about the coup attempt have cir-
culated in Cairo for more than a
week.
According to the reports brought
out yesterday, the attempted coup.
was timed for 5:30 p.m. Oct. 12,
the first Thursday night of the
holy month of Ramadan,' when
most of the Egyptian cabinet was
scheduled to attend evening pray-
ers at the Al Hussein mosque.
The British Broadcasting Corp.,
which also reported the coup at-
tempt, said the rebel officers were
protesting what was described as
Egypt's failureto wage full scale
war against Israel. The BBC re-
port said the rebels also object-
ed to Egypt's proposed union
with Libya.
An Egyptian army captain, orie
of the rebel leaders, was reported
to have harangued a crowd out-'
side Al Hussein mosque, denounc-
ing Sadat's close ties with LibyaI
and calling for war with Israel. He
was arrested.!
None of the reports reaching
Beirut gave the names of any
of the leaders. There was no indi-
cation of top-level involvement in
the coup attempt, or any mass sup-
port of it.
The reported plan was to strike
at three main targets - Sadat'sI
residence on the banks of the Nile
River, the Federation of Arab Re-
publics headquarters in suburban
Heliopolis, and the Al Hussein
mosque.

CONSERVATIVES ATTACKED:
Blacks vow unity at meeti

I

CHICAGO (' - The first Black
National Assembly opened here
yesterday with a clenched-fist
display of unity and a pledge by
one organizer to fight what he
called a "new conservative coali-
tion."
More than 400 delegates began
the two-day gathering by joining
in the black power salute and
invoking the names of slain black
leaders Martin Luther Ling, Mal-
colm X and Medgar Evers in
vowing to "preserve, defend and
protect the black community."
"We are pressed, our patience
has its limit and we are being
threatened in many ways as we
have never been threatened be-

Mich.) told reporters before the
meeting.
Diggs said President Nixon's
fore," Rep. Charles Diggs (D-
appointments of conservatives to
the Supreme Court were exam-
ples of the "emergence of a
new conservative coalition" that
the assembly hoped to fight by
forming a structure for dealing
with political problems facing
blacks.
After the emotional opening of
the convention, the delegates
turned to procedural matters,
electing Diggs assembly presi-
dent.
The assembly is an outgrowth

of the 4,000-member Black Politi-
cal Convention held in Gary,
Indiana last March. The con-
vention nominated 10 per cent
of its body to the Black National
Assembly.
In a statement before t h e
group. Diggs said the Assembly
was "like a congressional body."
"it may endorse candidates,
support candidates, run national
voter education and registration
drives, lobby for black interests,
assess black progress, make re-
commendations to the national
convention and become a focal
point of black politics in the Uni-
Led States.'

You're the only one who can.
Because all Smokey can do is ask you to help prevent forest fires.
He can't break your matches. Or douse your campfires. Or snuff out
your cigarets.
Only you can.
So, please, lend Smokey a hand.
And maybe while you're at it, lend him your voice too: tell people to
give the bear a break.
He deserves it.
So does America.
