Angola may seek more Cuban, Soviet aid

LIBSON, Portugal (UPI) - Angolan President
Jose Eduardo Dos Santos said he would seek more
Soviet and Cuban aid if South Africa launches new
raids into Angola or the United States supports
rebels trying to topple the government, the news
agency ANGOP said yesterday.
In a meeting in Luanda, Angola, Wednesday
with Assistant Secretary of State Chester Crocker,
dos Santos said he did "not understand" whether
U.S. moves to aid the South African-backed
UNITA rebels were "a form of pressure on Angola
or a declaration of war," ANGOP reported.
"IN THE event of new aggressions, Angola will
solicit more aid from the international community
and particularly from its traditional friends in the
Soviet Union, Cuba and other socialist countries,"
ANGOP quoted dos Santos.

UNITA, which operates in about two-thirds of
the oil-producting country, has fought the Marxist
government since Angola gained independence
from Portugal in 1975.
The United States ended a covert aid program to
UNITA in 1975, but Reagan administration of-
ficials have said they are considering renewing
assistance to the rebels.
DOS SANTOS reiterated his readiniess to con-
tinue participating "on the basis of constructive
proposals" in the U.S.-sponsored search for a
regional peace settlement, the news agency said.
Crocker arrived in Luanda Wednesday for two
days of talks aimed at reviving negotiations
linking independence for South Africa-
administered Namibia, also known as southwest
Afria, to a withdrawal of 35,000 Cuban troops from

Angola.
Crocker was to fly to South Africa Saturday for
talks with South African officials. South Africa has
launched several attacks into Angola in support of
the UNITA rebels.
Also yesterday, UNITA said it destroyed three
Soviet-supplied helicopter gunships on the ground
and killed "a Russian adviser and seven Cuban
advisers" Tuesday and Wednesday in
southeastern Kuando Kubango province.
The rebels also said they pounded four army
positions with long-range artillery, destroying a
radar station, four "command posts," eight
munitions depots and 39 vehicles.
There was no immediate independent confir-
mation or comment from Luanda on the rebel
claims.

Mason could give no estimate of
how long it would take to repair the
damage.
"IT DEPENDS on how many
breaks there are. If it's one break we
can fix it in a day, but we don't think
it's one break because all these lights
are not on one circuit. We know that
there is not one solution to the
problem," Mason said.
"It's a time consuming job. It's not
something where you can just turn a
switch," he said.
Jerry Wright, crime prevention of-
ficer for the Ann Arbor police said
blackouts usually do not lead to an in-
crease in crime.
But he said the lack of light can be
disturbing to pedestrians. "People
feel more comfortable when they can
see what's happening," he said.
The deadline for completion of the
telephone system cable installation is
February 20. Officials said it was
possible that further electrical
problems could occur as construction
crews struggle to meet the deadline.

Stock market drop raises
questions about economic future
NEW YORK-The sudden drop in the stock market Wednesday and
yesterday from record highs may have raised some unsettling questions
about Wall Street's high hopes for the economic outlook this year.
But analysts in the financial world contend that the sell-off came as
neither a big surprise not a cause for great concern, viewed in the per-
spective of how far and how fast stock prices rose in the last few months
of 1985.
The higher the market soared in recent weeks, they say, the more
vulnerable it became to any sort of disappointment like the abrupt rise in
interest rates that touched off the selling Wednesday.
"Considering the gains we've had, we've given up relatively little,"
said Newton Zinder, a veteran of more than two decades as a market
analyst for E.F. Hutton and Co. "The market was very extended."
When the Dow Jones industrial average, the oldest and best known ,
measure of stock price trends, fell 39.10 points Wednesday, it nominally
broke the record for a single-day decline of 38.33 points set in the midst of
the Great Crash of 1929.
But the two events were not even close to comparable on a percentage
basis. Wednesday's decline amounted to 2.5 percent of the averages
value, while the Oct. 28, 1929, drop was 12.8.
British defense sec. resigns
LONDON-Defense Secretary Michael Heseltine resigned yesterday in
a dramatic break with Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, accusing her
of trying to muzzle his campaign against an American-led takeover of a
British helicopter company.
Heseltine, 52, stalked out of a Cabinet meeting, leaving behind shocked
colleagues who had just agreed that any statement on the financially
ailing Westland PLC helicopter company had to be cleared, by the
Cabinet.
Heseltine wanted a British-European consortium to buy Westland.
It was the most spectacular resignation from a top government post in
Mrs. Thatcher's 6%/2 years as prime minister. Heseltine, whose nickname
"Tarzan" reflects his colorful style, later delivered a 22-minute
statement at a news conferencein which he said honor forced him to
leave the Cabinet.
"I had no choice but to accept or to resign. I left the Cabinet," Heseltine
said.
He charged that Mrs. Thatcher had permitted "a deliberate attempt to
avoid addressing" such issues as defense procurement and "Britain's
future as a technologically advanced country."
U.S. officials vow aid to S.A..
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa-Six U.S. congressmen toured a
squalid squatters camp outside Cape Town yesterday, vowing to tell
Americans about the horrible conditions in the shanty town and
promising additional U.S. aid.
In Johannesburg, a judge postponed a decision on a challenge to a
government order barring Winnie Mandela, wife of Nelson Mandela,
from Johannesburg and Soneto.
About 150 supporters crammed the court and cheered Mrs. Mandela as
she left the session of the Supreme Court, which postponed a decision on
her challenge of the restrictions that have kept her under government
confinement for 23 years.
In a small, dusty schoolyard at the squatters camp in Cape Town,
delegation leader Rep. William Gray (D-PA.), told a welcoming group of
about 300 people, "We care, and we will demonstrate that when we go
back."
NASA attempts shuttle
launch after 6 delays
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.-Technicians found and removed a pen-sized
thermometer that jammed an engine valve in the shuttle Columbia
yesterday and NASA tentatively cleared the ship for another blastoff try
this morning.
It will be the sixth attempt to launch the shuttle following the start of
the countdown. Never before in 23 missions has one of the winged
spaceships had such difficulty getting airborne.
The errant temperature probe entered Columbia's plumbing after
breaking off from ground equipment because of a faulfy weld, NASA said.
It was only discovered because the shuttle's launch attempt Tuesday was
scrubbed because of bad weather.
Had Columbia taken off Tuesday, the value might not have closed and
one of the shuttle's three main engines could have been damaged when
the engines shut down in orbit, according to spokesman David Drachlis at
NASA's engine center in Huntsville, ALA.
U.S. farm population decreases
WASHINGTON-The nation's farm population, after remaining
relatively stable in 1984, dropped 7 percent in 1985, the sharpest annual
decline in a decade, the government said yesterday.
Part of the loss in farm population was blamed on the financial crunch
suffered by farmers during recent years, in which thousands of families
have been put in jeopardy by huge debts and declining assets.

However, the drop of 339,000 people, from 5,754,000 in 1984 to 5,355,000
last year, was immediately challenged by one of the report's overseers,
who said that much of the year-to-year decline was due to changes in
sampling techniques.
The report was released by the Census Bureau and the Agriculture
Department. It did not include the new farm population estimate for 1985,
but census officials provided that figure upon request.
