4 Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Thursday, October 6, 1983 Shamir forms new government from AP & UPI Prime Minister-designate Yitzhak Shamir formed a new government yesterday that will maintain the hardline policies of outgoing Prime Minister Menachem Begin. Israel's parliament, the Knesset, scheduled a special session Monday for a vote of confidence on Shamir's new cabinet. THAT COALITION, known as Likud, is dominated by the conservative Herut Party and holds 64 seats in the 120-member Knesset. Under Israeli law, Shamir would become prime minister if he wins the vote, formally replacing Begin, who has been in power since 1977. He is expected to win a narrow majority with backing from Israel's ultra-orthodox religious party that has been demanding more stringent enfor- cement of Jewish law in the country. THE ANNOUNCEMENT that Shamir had formed a new government came after six members of his Likud bloc dropped their demand that negotiations continue for formation of a cabinet including mem- bers of the opposition Labor party. The six deputies dropped their demand, saying Shamir had given Labor ample opportunity to join a coalition. Talks with Labor collapsed last week over dif- ferences on Jewish settlement in occupied Arab territories. Shamir's Likud bloc rejected Labor's call to limit the outposts to sparsely populated Arab areas. With the solid support of his Likud bloc and that of the ultra-orthodox Agudath Israel party, Shamir can look forward to a majority government in the Knesset. Senate GOP calls for (Continued from Page 1) As for the Republican caucus, Sen. Robert Dole of Kansas said "Some very strong feelings were expressed. There's a very, very strong feeling that Secretary Watt should leave." REPUBLICANS had a wide-ranging discussion of Watt at the caucus, and almost all agreed, according to partic- pants, that Watt should resign. "It became clear that the Watt thing had hurt Republicans and had hurt the Reagan administration and was not just going to go away," said one Senate Republican, who asked not to be iden- tified. Even Republicans who hadn't taken a position on Watt before the session spoke out against him in scathing ter- ms, participants said.

A SOLIDARITY underground remains and, despite frequent government efforts to minimize Walesa's impor- tance and discredit him, he remains a hero of the Polish people and a rallying point for the movement. The Nobel committee said it "regards Walesa as an ex- ponent of the active longing for peace and freedom which exist, in spite of unequal conditions, unconquered in all the peoples of the world. . "In an age when detente and the peaceful resolution of con- flicts are more necessary than ever before, Lech Walesa's contribution is both an inspiration and an example," the committee said. WALESA'S WORK was "characterized by a determination to solve his country's problems through negotiation and cooperation without resorting to violence," the committee said. His contribution "is of vital importance in the wider cam- paign to secure the universal freedom to organize - a human right as defined by the United Nations," the committee said. "I hope this will be an incentive for everybody around the world who fights to protect peace and human rights," said committee chairman Egil Aarvik. THE AWARD was announced in mid-morning in Oslo, but Polish radio was silent about it until six hours later, at 4 p.m. Warsaw time. Hearing the broadcast in a Warsaw depar- tment store, shoppers broke into cheers and applause. "Bravo!" "Well done! " they shouted. "Justice has been done," said one middle-aged woman in Warsaw. "And to think that these guys the authorities have been trying to trample him into the mud."

Despite his worsening condition, Cooke, 62, gratefully acknowledged the prayers being offered up for him, said the Rev. Peter Finn, spokesman for the archdiocese. FINN TOLD a morning news con- ference that Cooke's condition remained unchanged following a serious setback Tuesday, and death could come "in a matter of hours or days." "It's in the hands of God really," Finn said. Cooke was heavily medicated and receiving blood transfusions at his of- ficial residence behind St. Patrick's Cathedral, where he has stayed since it was announced 40 days ago he was ter- minally ill. Finn said Cooke, Archbishop of New York for 15 years and the Roman Catholic military vicar,"remains gravely ill and is conscious, although in some pain." "The cardinal continues to accept his suffering," Finn said. Finn said the archdiocese was told that Pope"JohnPaul It celebrated a mass in Cooke's honor. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports State Senate kills primary LANSING - Michigan's' troubled presidential primary was drawing its last breaths yesterday as the Senate voted to kill the election, considered by critics to be merely a political beauty contest. The 22-12 vote to eliminate the election completely came despite attempts' by some senators to hold open the possibility of reviving it in 1988. Opponents of eliminating the election charged the action "erodes our democratic form of. government." The measure now returns to the House for approval of a technical amen- dment. It will then be sent to Gov. James Blanchard who is expected to sign it. The House voted last week to eliminate the election. Democrats and Republicans both likely will use caucuses next March to select their presidential choices. The national Democratic Party refused to accept primary election results in 1980 for delegate selection purposes, charging Michigan's election permits cross-over voting. The first presidential primary in 1972 drew 40.6 percent of Michigan's registered voters. The 1980 election, basically a Republicans-only contest, drew only 13.6 percent and cost the state $2.5 million. A 1984 election was ex- pected to cost $4.8 million. Gemayel may break Israel pact BEIRUT, Lebanon - The government of President Amin Gemayel said yesterday it was willing to discuss cancellation of the 6-month-old security accord with Israel if it would bring peace between Lebanon's Christian and Moslem factions. Syria and several Lebanese factions are demanding abrogation of the May 17 accord in exchange for concessions at peace talks the government expects to begin within a week in Saudi Arabia. Kbalil Mekkawi, acting secretary-general of the Foreign Ministry, told a news conference efforts are under way to create a "neutral observation for- ce" to oversee the truce that began Sept. 26 after three weeks of civil war. The Gemayel government and the four nations that make up the multinational peacekeeping force in Beirut - the United States, France, Italy and Britain - had been pushing for a U.N. force. But Jumblatt argued this could lead to the permanent partitioning of the nation. Syria also op- poses a U.N. force. 78 percent of toxic waste dumps violate federal laws WASHINGTON - Congressional investigators reported yesterday that 78 percent of the hazardous waste dumps they checked this summer were violating their federal permits by not monitoring for possible leaks of toxic chemicals into drinking water supplies. Two congressmen said they were "shocked," and vowed to ask the House this week to provide for criminal prosecution of dump operators who deliberately ignore health safeguards imposed by federal law. The sample survey of state pollution officials in North Carolina and Illinois was conducted by the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, which found that 78 percent of the dumps operating under so- called "interim status permits" were not checking for groundwater pollution, as required. The GAO said underground water pollution "is the most serious potential threat to human health and the environment posed by the disposal of hazar- dous waste." An estimated 1,350 sites nationwide are subject to the groun- dwater monitoring requirement. AFL-CIO endorses Mondale HOLLYWOOD, Fla. - The AFL-CIO convention, calling Walter Mondale "an eloquent spokesman for the concerns of working people," over- whelmingly endorsed his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination yesterday. "We've got to elect Mondale and throw those bums out of Washington," said William Bywater, president of the Electrical Workers union, ar- ticulating the AFI-CIO's overwhelming desire to defeat Reagan next November. Various labor officials have said the endorsement will be worth more than $10 million to Mondale in terms of campaign organizing and mailing lists. It will give the Mondale forces the immediate benefit of the federation's com- puter voting lists of nearly 14 million rank-and-file unionists across the coun- try. Former vice president, Hubert H. Humphrey trounced Glenn who was the only other Democratic candidate to garner any votes. Mondale won 90.7 per- cent of the more than 13 million votes, which were cast by union leaders on behalf of their rank-and-file members. The vote was the final phase of the AFL-CIO's 1984 presidential strategy leading to the endorsement of a labor favorite. It was a ratification of last Saturday's overwhelming recommendation of Mondale by the federation's general board of union presidents. Convicted killer granted reprieve HUNTSVILLE, Texaxs - Fellow death row inmates said yesterday they clapped and cheered "just like the Dallas Cowboys were scoring a touch- down" when convicted killer James Autry was spared by a court minutes before his execution. "We're all happy to see him back here," inmate Billy Hughes said. "We'd like to go slap him on the back and shake his hand and ask him to talk about it. But getting him to talk is hard because he's so shy to begin with." Autry, 29, was silent but smiling as he returned to the solitude of his cell. Just 29 minutes before Autry was scheduled to die, Supreme Court justice Byron White granted the reprieve. Autry was already strapped to a gurney in the death chamber, his arm bearing an intravenous needle that would carry the lethal dose of chemicals to his veins when he was told the good news. Because of some confusion about what the order meant, Aurty was not informed until 33 minutes after the decision had been made.
