Page 2 The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, September 11, 1985 Duarte's daughter is kidnapped SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador; (UPI) - Two heavily armed men; kidnapped the daughter of President. Jose Napoleon Duarte yesterday, dragging her from a vehicle by her hair and killing two of her bodyguar- ds, witnesses and authorities said. Ines Guadalupe Duarte de Navas, Duarte's oldest daughter, was abduc-. ted as she arrived at the Nueva San Salvador University yesterday after- noon, chief military spokesman Lt. Col. Carlos Aviles said. THE ABDUCTORS shot and killed one of her bodyguards and wounded a second, who died later at the military Hospital, police said. A retired army colonel who witnessed the attack fired at the gunmen but apparently missed. After the kidnapping, all roads into and out of the capital were closed and security forces barred people from leaving or entering the city. Troops. using helicopters launched a massive search for the kidnappers in the capital of San Salvador. Witnesses said Ines Duarte was parking her jeep at the university when the gunmen drove up in another vehicle, shot out her tires, fired at her bodyguards and dragged her from the car by her hair. "WE SAW her fighting with the men, they began to shoot and we threw ourselves to the ground," a wit- ness said. "When they finished, she had disappeared." Local radio stations said spokesmen for the president had ordered them not to broadcast any stories about the abduction. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the abduction and officials would not speculate on what group might have carried out the operation. LEFTIST REBELS in El Salvador .are seeking to topple Duarte's U.S.- backed government. Right-wing death squads have also been blamed for carrying out assassinations and kidnappings. Both sides in the conflict have carried out kidnappings and killings of public figures. But the kidnapping Tuesday was the first involving a member of the president's family sin- ce he took office June 30, 1984. The president's office said Ines Duarte, 35, is manager of the Libertad radio chain, the radio network of the governing Christian Democratic Par- ty, and is a student at the university. She has three children and is divorced from Alfredo Navas, who heads the Basic Foods Regulatory Agency. President Duarte and his wife, Ines Duran de Duarte, have six children. 4 . , 4, . . K Judge sentences draft resister LOS ANGELES (AP) - Draft resister David Wayte was sentenced yesterday to six months of "house arrest" at his grandmother's home and barred from doing community service, although the judge conceded society will suffer as a result. jJ.S. District Judge Terry Hatter said the unusual ban on community service during Wayte's probation would be a grave punishment for a socially conscious activist who is deeply involved in such activity. HATTER said he lost sleep Monday night trying to devise the proper sen- tence for Wayte, .24, i -former Yale University philosophy student who fought his case to the U.S. Supreme Court. "Society loses, in a sense," Hatter said of the sentence, "but it gains in that it has a person punished for violating laws." Wayte, who works at a school for disabled adults and at a shelter and soup kitchen for the homeless in N Pasadena, contended he was: prosecuted only because of protests such as writing anti-draft letters to then-President Jimmy Carter. "I'M RELIEVED that I'm not going to prison, although I'm facing a sub- stantial penalty," Wayte said. In July, 1982, Wayte was indicted on one count of failing to register. Three months later, Hatter ruled the gover- nment had violated Wayte's right to free speech by prosecuting only vocal draft resisters. A federal appeals court overtunred Hatter's ruling in July, 1983, and in March the U.S. Supreme Court upheld that decision. WAYTE then pleaded guilty to a single count of failing to register,. which carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Wayte's attorney, Mark Rosen- baum of the American Civil Liberties Union, argued for a period of com- munity service but acknowledged that Wayte was already doing that. IN BRIEF COMPILED FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS AND UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL REPORTS Reagan asks Congress to raise debt limit WASHINGTON - The Reagan administration yesterday asked Congress to raise the national debt limit above $2 trillion and predicted that without new borrowing authority the Treasury would run out of cash by Oct. 15. John J. Niehenke, acting assistant Treasury secretary for domestic finance, said the government was spending about $20 billion a month more than it was taking in, and additional borrowing authority was needed quickly. "If the debt limit is not increased, the government will be unable to meet all of its essential obligations when they fall due - Social Security checks, payroll checks, unemployment checks, defense contracts, and principal and interest on its securities," he said. The Treasury will reach the current debt limit of $1.824 trillion on Sept. 30, and by Oct. 15 its cash reserve of about $20 billion will be empty, he said. The request is identical to the amount predicted when Congress passed the fiscal 1986 budget on Aug. 1. But members of the Senate finance sub- committee on taxation and debt management still spoke of shock at a sea of red ink that has doubled since President Reagan took office. Mob attacks Bitish law minister BIRMINGHAM, England - An angry crowd attacked Britain's law en forcement minister yesterday when he visited the scene of overnight rioting and arson that left two people dead in the country's second-largest city. The violence started Monday night between blacks and a policeman and ended with 50 shops gutted by fire. It was the worst rioting to hit Britain since 1981, when racial violence raged for two days in parts of London, Liverpool and Manchester in the greatest breakdown of law and order this century. Home Secretary Douglas Hurd visited the rundown district of Han- dsworth on Tuesday afternoon to view the destruction and quickly drew a jeering crowd, mostly of black youths. As Hurd said "I'm here to listen," bricks and bottles sailed out of the crowd. Hurd was hurried into a police van and driven away unhurt. The crowd pelted two police vans with stones. One van drove away, but the mob overturned the second and set it ablaze, sending a new pall of smoke over a neighborhood still smoldering from fires. Stfiled to block ' rWars' test WASHINGTON - Four House Democrats and the Union of Concerned Scientists filed suit in federal court yesterday to block a test of the nation's anti-satellite weapon against a defunct U.S. satellite orbiting in space. The suit filed in U.S. District Court claimed the presidential cer- tification for the test failed to meet criteria set by Congress last year in passing the Pentagon budget. There was no official confirmation, but published reports said the test would be conducted Friday by the Air Force against the "Solwind," a now-defunct 6-year-old military research satellite. The Pentagon had no comment on the suit against the first test of the system using an object in space. Thailand coup attempt to be investigated BANGKOK, Thailand - Prime Minister Prem Tinsulanonda said yesterday that the coup attempt against him was suppressed with the least possible violence and that suspected leaders of the insurrection will be treated fairly. He announced a civilian-military investigation into Monday's brief rebellion by some 500 soldiers who attacked key army installations with tank fire and machine guns. Hours later, they surrendered under threats from loyalist troops. Four people were reported killed. Prem, who rushed home from a trip to Indoesia hours after the coup was crushed, said yesterday he was not certain if the most influential of the ' suspected coup leaders, former Prime Minister Kriangsak Chomanand, had actively participated in the coup. Some reports have suggested the rebels forced him to join them. But he said Kriangsak had been present in the Supreme Command headquarters, which the rebels made their base. Several members of Parliament called for Kriangsak's expulsion from that body. Kriangsak is chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Commit- tee, and his National Democratic Party is one of four partieis in the coalition government. Boycott of school in AIDS case continues NEW YORK - Nearly 10,000 children skipped classes for a second day yesterday and hundreds of irate parents picketed Queens schools to protest a city decision allowing a second-grader born with AIDS to attend school. The boycott appeared to weaken since Monday when about 18,000 children stayed out of schools in the borough. Some parents said they were confronted by the dilemma of whether to disrupt their children's education or allow them to go to school with a child afflicted with acquired immune deficiency syndrome. More than 850 parents and children demonstrated outside at least nine schools in Queens, carrying signs reading "We're Not Callous, Just Cautious," "Keep AIDS Out Of School," and "Chancellor - We Don't Want To Take A Chance." Some 20 percent of the children attending school in Districts 27 and 29 skipped classes yesterday in the nation's largest school system. Officials said 9,750 children of the 48,430 students registered in the districts were abscent.

U.S. ambassador ures So Afiaato JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (AP) - The American ambassador returned to South Africa yesterday with a "very important message" from President Reagan, and this country's leading business newspaper said the new U.S. economic sanctions show the white-minority regime has. "pushed the world too far." U.S. Ambassador Herman Nickel told reporters at Jan Smuts Airport, "Negotiations have to be seen to be starting. Some of the features of the ."apartheid system have to be seen to be abolished. I think that is absolutely necessary." REAGAN withdrew Nickel nearly R three months ago, after South African s- spies were suspected of trying to blow up American oil facilities in Angola, "°and following the June 14 South African commando strike on down- - town Gaborone, the capital of Bot- swana. "It is very important that the United States makes its disassociation from apartheid very plain," Nickel added. Under apartheid, South Africa's legal system of segregation, 5 million whites rule 24 million voteless blacks. A year of anti-apartheid violence has f=killed a reported 700 people, most of " R them black. 11111 r NICKEL said Reagan had given him "a very important message" to C47deliver to South African President P.W. Botha, but he would not say what it was. change The ambassador returned a day af- ter Reagan announced limited, economic sanctions against South' Africa. Business Day, an influential finan- cial daily, said Reagan's economic sanctions were "more economically inconvenient than terminal." But it added, "The most powerful leader in the Western world is giving South Africa a clear and unequivocal political message: reform must con- tinue at a pace acceptable to the Western allies whether Pretoria likes it or not." ANTI-APARTHEID groups at- tacked the sanctions as cosmetic and inadequate. Foreign Ministers from the 10 European Common Market countries, meeting in Luxembourg, denounced apartheid and nine of the 10 member countries agreed to a package of mildly punitive measures. Britain's opposition prevented a unanimous agreement on the package, which included a ban on oil exports, halting all trade that could aid the South African military and police, and prohibiting new agreements on nuclear cooperation, said Foreign Minister Leo Tindemans of Belgium. COMMON MARKET officials also issued a political statement denoun- cing apartheid and calling for the release of all political prisoners, in- cluding black nationalist leader Nelson Mandela. Tindemans said the sanctions were meant as a signal to South Africa that Europe would continue pressing for an end to the system of racial separation. "If things don't change we will do more," he said at the conclusion of nearly 10 hours of deliberations by foreign ministers of the 10 Common Market nations. MALCOLM RIFKIND, who represented Britain in the Luxem- bourg talks, said his government wan- ted more time to study the possible ef- fect of the measures on South Africa. Among the measures to be taken by the nine Common Market countries are: *An embargo on exports of arms and paramilitary equipment and a halt to imports of such equipment from South Africa. 0, REabINQ 6 LEAlRNINQ SKILLS (ENTER ~hrI ' z .ewrn Gom Editor in Chief....................NEIL CHASE Opinion Page Editor ............
