UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) -
The United States, Britain and France
vetoed three African resolutions in the
Security Council yesterday that called
for economic sanctions and other
stringent measures against South
Africa.
The 15-member council unanimously
approved a fourth African resolution
condemning the white-minority govern-
ment in Pretoria for its resort to
'massive violence and repression"
against black South Africans and "all
other opponents" of apartheid.
THAT RESOLUTION also demands
the South African government release
all persons imprisoned under security
laws and for opposition to its racial poli-
cies, and lift bans on organizations and
newspapers opposed to apartheid.
The U.N. African group demanded in-
ternational sanctions two weeks ago af-
ter the latest South African crackdown
on black dissidents and other opponents
of its racial segregation policies.
The triple veto came after the two
sides were unable to agree on a com-
promise position in negotiations that
began late last week.
THE THREE permanent Western
council members, supported by West
Germany and Canada on the council,
have proposed only a six-month manda-
tory arms embargo - subject to renew-
al - against South Africa.
de san
The three vetoed resolutions were
killed by identical votes of 10-5, with
Canada and West Germany joining the
three veto-wielding Western powers.
One resolution would have called for.
a ban on investments and loans to
South Africa and an end to government
encouragement of trade with South
Africa.
THE OTHER TWO would have im-.
posed a permanent arms embargo and
would have declared South African poli-
cies a threat to international peace and
security, thereby paving the way for
CtionS
tougher sanctions, including possible
expulsion from the United Nations.
After the votes, the council suspended
debate to allow the two sides to resume
negotiations on a compromise resolu-
tion calling for a mandatory arms em-
bargo.
Before casting the "no" votes, U.S.
Ambassador Andrew Young spoke out
against the move to put the three
resolutions to a vote, terming it "a
callous and insensitive attempt to
divide us."
Britain and France were known to be
more firmly opposed than the United,

In 1972, the Supreme Court ruled
that reporters enjoy no special rights
r to protect their news sources in
LL 9 criminal cases. Shelledy's refusal,,
0 however, came in a civil case - the
in libel suit over his article.
SHELLEDY'S attorney, Reed -

" days in jail.
* Saying Shelledy - probably will
serve the sentence in the Latah
County Jail, Clements added that
after 30 days "he would probably be
brought before the court again and
asked to reveal the source. This could
continue, the sentence would not be
just for 30 days," Clements said.
The Supreme Court agreed to re-
view a lower court's ruling that gives
consumers the right to sue insurance
companies in federal courts under
antitrust laws.
THE COURT'S review of an appeal
filed by four insurance firms makes

of Rhode Island doctors and their pa-

States to some of the tough African
proposals.
Meanwhile, about 87,00 students ip
the black South African township of
Soweto, near Johannesburg, defied a
government order and continued their
boycott of classes. The government
said they would have to repeat the
academic year if they missed exams
starting yesterday. About 300,00aO
students are boycotting classes nation-
wide to protest what they consider an
inferior black education system.

tients in the U.S. Circuit Court- of
Appeals in Boston. The Supreme
Court might uphold the lower court's
ruling after studying the case more
closely, but it took the votes- of at
least four of the nine justices to grant
review.
While the Rhode Island case in-
volves malpractice insurance, the
lower court's ruling appears to open
the federal courts to consumers of all
types of insurance who feel they're
being cheated by their companies,
At issue is an interpretation of a
federal antitrust law, the McCarran
Ferguson Act.
THE LAW exempts insurance come
panies from antitrust suits except foi'
cases involving "boycott, coercion or
intimidation," but past court rulings
have interpreted that language to
apply only to insurance agents or
companies and not to consumers.
The Rhode Island case represents
the first time a federal court has
ruled that consumers have the right
to take insurance companies to court
under antitrust laws. M
The doctors and patients sued St;
Paul Fire & Marine, Hartford, Aetn4
and Travelers on charges that the
four companies conspired to make
unavailable a certain type of mal-
practice insurance.
IN OTHER matters yesterday, the
court:
Agreed to decide whether chile
