Birth control I
EW in India
NEW DELHI, India - In the
wake of a political furor over
compulsory sterilization, India's
new government pledged yes-
terday to curb the nation's birth
rate through traditional, volun-
tary contraceptive methods.
But Health Minister Raj Na-
rain emphasized that lowering
India's annual birth rate, esti-
mated at 14 million, remains a
top priority of the government
of Prime Minister Morarji De-
sai.
India's population of 620 mil-
lion, nearly three times that of
the United States, lives in a
area less than a third the size
of the 50 American states.
"We are totally against, fun-
damentally against compulsory
sterilization," Narain told re-
porters. He said the government
will increase distribution of free
contraceptives and encourage
Indians to have small families
for their economic well being.
Narain also said the govern-
ment was ending the 20-year
policy of paying cash to those
who undergo sterilization. "This
is a bribe," he said.
Former Prime Minister Indira
Gandhi began the sterilization
campaign shortly after she sus-
pended civil liberties in June
1975. But it generated bitter op-
positton in a culture that vene-
rates large familieshand was a
major reason for her govern-
ment's defeat at the polls last
month.
During the campaign, federal
and state administrations de-
vised elaborate incentives and
penalties to convince Indians to
undergo sterilizationafter hav-
ing two or three children.
They included denying free
medical care, subsidized hous-
ing, and pay raises to couples'
who refused to submit to sterili-
zation after three children.
Rebels dead
in Zaire
KINSHASA, Zaire - The chief
of staff of Zaire's armed forces
said yesterday that his troops
have killed Russians, Cubans
and Portuguese among the rebel
force that invaded Shaba Prov-
ince on March 8.
"We have not taken any of
them prisoner," said Lt. Gen.-
Bumba Moasso, expressing re-
gret - with a broad grin -j
that he could not display the
bodies in the Zaire capital which

He emphasized the political
importance of the Concorde is-
sue in a 90-minute discussion
with Secretary of State Cyrus
Vance, who stopped over here
on his way home from abortive
armslimitation talks in Moscow.
Vance later left for Washing-
ton.
"President Giscard d'Estaing
raised the question with respect
to the Concorde and I said I
would discuss the matter with
President Carter on my return,"
Vance told reporters after the
meeting at the Elysee presiden-
tial palace.
"It's not just a technical prob-
lem," President Giscard d'Es-
taing's spokesman said after the
~meeting. "It is a political prob-
lem which will have inevitable
political consequences if New
York refuses Concorde landing
rights."
The Anglo-French airliner is
undergoing a 16-month landing
trial at Washington's Dulles air-
port but has not been allowed
to begin a similar trial period
at New York's Kennedy airport.
Other topics raised during the
meeting were Vance's Kremlin
talks, the dangers of the nuclear
proliferation and the rapidly
changing situation in Africa.

lies 1,200 miles from the fight-
ing near the key copper mining
center of Kolwezi.
He said the whites killed gen-
erally fought bare to the waist
in the rear of the rebel infan-
try. He said most of them were
instructors or technicians em-
ployed to fire sophisticated
ground to ground missiles of
Soviet origin. Bumba declined
to estimate how many whites
had been killed. Asked to ex-
plain how he could be certain
that they were Russian, Cuban
or Portuguese, he replied:
"They support Angolan Presi-
dent Agostinho Neto, don't
they?" He declined to elaborate,
but reporters assumed it was a'
reference to Russian and Cuban
support for the Marxist-oriented
regime in, neighboring Angola
which has given the rebels cru-
cial material and moral back-
ing.
Bumba, who was protected by
an eight-man bodyguard carry-
ing submachine guns, pledged
that government forces would
soon launch an all-out offensive
to drive the invaders out of
the country. He did not ex-
plain how they would overcome
the handicaps of shortage of
fuel and spare parts and hos-
tility from the local population
in western Shaba Province.
Most of the invaders are Lun-
da tribesmen of Shaba origin
who have lived in Angolan exile
since the collapse of the late
Moise Tshombe's Shaba Katan-
ga secession in 1963. Tshombe
Was the paramount chief of the
Lunda tribe.
Egypt to ask
for U.S. arms
WASHINGTQN - Egyptian
President Anwar Sadat is ex-
pected to ask for U. S. arms
and for a detailed explanation
of the administration's Middle
East peace plans in his talks
this week with Carter since his
inauguration, Sadat is known to
be determined to probe Carter's
concept of a "homeland" for'
Palestinian refugees as well- as
"defensible borders" for Israel.
Sadat also wants American
weapons -"lots" of Northrop
F5 fighter planes and TOW
antitank missiles, he said re-
cently. Deliverycould begin a
"retooling" of Egyptian forces
'along U. S. lines..~
Sadat is scheduled to meet
Carter tomorrow and Tuesday.
Egypt already receives French
fighter - bombers and French
and British helicopters and
technology. According to Israeli
sources, the Soviets have con-
tinued to supply M1G21 fight-
ers, anti-aircraft missiles and
tanks despite a general impres-
sion that they were caught off
in a rift growing out of the 1973
Middle East war.
The Israels contend the equip-
ment is "laundered" through
East Germany, Czechoslovakia,
North Korea and other Com-
munist countries.

poisoning has been confirmed
in 21 Pontiac residents at four
hospitals in what health author-
ities were calling one of the
worst botulism out-breaks ever
in the United States.
Four of the victims were in
critical but stable condition, the
rest were listed as fair, and at
least a dozen other persons
were being held in hospital for
observation, according to the
Oakland County Department' of
Health.
Fourteen suspected cases of
botulism poisoning had been re-
ported by Friday afternoon and
the malady was confirmed and
the figure rose to 21 by yester-
day, according to Ralph Miller
of St. Joseph Mercy Hospital,
The contamination has been
traced to canned jalapeno pep-
pers used by a small, but popu-
lar Mexican restaurant in Pon-
tiac.
Special serum to treat the
victims of botulin toxin has
been flown here by the Center
for Disease Control in Atlanta.

LATE AUTUMN
"I'm happy as I am," says a young woman to her mother, refusing
to marry in this vatuation on Ozu's theme of parent-child rela-
tionships as they go through small, undramatic but significant
cruises. The girl marries, of course, and her mother is left to live
alone. Full of soft affectionate humor. Japanese with subtitles.

TWO OR THREE THI NGS
A tuy fI KNOW ABOUT HER.
A study of prostitution, both on a personal, industrial, and political level.
Often exhibiting Godard's own special brand of humor, this film ranges
from the adventures of a young French housewife prostitute, to the contem-
plation of the universe within a coffee cup. Sometimes maddening, but bl-
togther, an important film by one of the world's most intriguing film-
makers.

(Ernst Lubitsch, 1933)

7 & 10:30-MLB 4

Discussions of Ernst Lubitsch are all too often inclined to pay lip
service to his famous and delightful "touch," which generally
obscures the fact that he was a director of considerable scope and
depth. Happily, Lubitsch was at his best in this adult comedy
about a woman who, unable to decide which of two men she loves
the more, decides to live with them both. The witty screenplay
was written by Ben Hecht. "Lubitsch was a giant . . his talent
and originality were stupefying!" Orson Welles, Frederic March,
Gary Cooper, Miriam Hopkins.
