Page Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wednesday, June 23, 1976 1 US. seeks peace in South Africa I PARIS (AP) - The United States is trying to avoid "a racial war" in south- ern Africa by promoting negotiations be- tween white minority governments and black majorities, Secretary of State Hen- ry Kissinger said yesterday. Kissinger told a news conference the riots in South Africa "underline the ur- gency of the situation" be will explore with Prime Minister John Vorster in West Germany later this week. HE SAID HE REGRETS the meet- ing is taking place against the back- ground of violence, "but the problem won't be easier four or eight weeks from now and we have decided to go ahead." On the Italian elections, Kissinger said the results appear to strengthen the po- sition of "the non-Communist and non- Fascist parties." He said this raised the possibility of a new government being formed without Communist participation, but how Italy solves its political prob- lems depends on the parties themselves. The Italian Communists increased their share of the vote for the Chamber of Deputies from 27.2 per cent in 1972 to 34.4 per cent, but failed to overtake the ruling Christian Democrats, who got 38.7 per cent, the same as four years ago. The Communists, Italy's second-largest party, have been denied a role in the Italian government since shortly after World War H. ON THE MIDDLE EAST, Kissinger said the United States would go along with a French proposal for a peacekeep- ing force in Lebanon if all the Arab factions and governments support it. But at the moment. there is no U.S. initia- tive in the works to end the Lebanese civil war, he said. "The United States would strongly sup- port any- initiative that brings the con- flicting groups together again,"hesaid. Kissinger said the United States would back a "roundtable" under French au- spices to negotiate a Lebanese settle- ment if a cease-fire can be enforced firstE THlE SECRETARY bad meetings sched- uled after the news conference with U.S. ambassadors from Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Syria to get a first- hand view of the situation in Lebanon. Kissinger said although the Palestine Liberation Organization helped in Sun- day's evacuation of U.S. citizens from Lebanon, there was no direct U.S. con- tact with the group. "The government of Egypt played an extremely helpful role as an intermedi- ary, wor which the United States is grateful," Kissinger said. He also prais- ed Saudi Arabia and Tunisia for aid- ing the evacuation. THE SECRETARY said his scheduled meeting with Vorster late Wednesday was "not in any sense an endorse- ment" of South African policies for deal- ing with dissenters. In fact, the United States feels South Africa has been too forceful in responding to black unrest, Kissinger said. "The United States is attempting to avoid a racial war in southern Africa and to move matters there through ne- gotiations rather than violence," he said. South African officials say the death toll in three days of rioting in black townships around Johannesburg last week and in areas around Pretoria this week totaled 140 dead and 1,128 injured. All but two of the dead and 1 of the injured were black, according to govern- ment and news reports.
