Carter goes over

From APandUPI
President Carter won enough dele-
gates yesterday to claim the 1980
Democratic nomination, but Sen. Ed-
ward Kennedy, seeking to embarrass
him on the final day of the primary
season, won in New Jersey and Rhode
Island and was leading in South
Dakota.
New Jersey still gave Carter enough
Democratic delegates to put him well
over the 1,666 he needs for the
nomination. Carter entered the biggest
day of the primary season just 28
delegates shy of victory and bythe time
the votes from all eight states were

ACCORDING TO AN ABC poll of
voters leaving the balloting, Kennedy
"might" win the big prize of the
day-California.
Carter led for more than 180
delegates, which put him more than 90
nominating votes past the 1,666
majority level. Kennedy was ahead for
for about 200 delegates. The precise
count awaited final returns-and the
apportionment of 306 delegates from
California.
The president told cheering suppor-
ters in the courtyard of a bar called
"The Buck Stops Here" he'd won the
nomination and willtnow "resch out the
hand of friendship" to Kennedy.
"I'M NOW DEDICATED to bringing
our Democratic Party back together,"
he said.
Kennedy looked for election evidence
that Democrats want him to continue
what seems an impossible quest.
OHIO, WITH 42 per cent of the
precincts reporting, gave Carter 52 per
cent of the vote to Kennedy's 43 per
cent. That put Carter in the lead for 87
delegates, Kennedy for 74. NBC, ABC,
and CBS all projected a Carter victory
in Ohio.
In New Jersey, with 59 per cent
tallied, Kennedy was gaining 55 per
cent of-the vote to 37 per cent for Carter.
That put Kennedy ahead for 67
delegates, Carter for 46.
In West Virginia, 25 per cent of the
precincts made it 61 per cent and 18
delegates for Carter 39 per cent and 15
delegates for Kennedy.
WITH 81 per cent counted in South
Dakota, Kennedy had 48 per cent of the
vote for 10 delegates, Carter 45 per cent
for nine delegates.
In New Mexico, with 53 per cent
counted, Carter had 46.per cent and 11
delegates to 42 per cent and nine
delegates for Kennedy.
In Rhode Island, with all the vote
counted, Kennedy was gaining 68 per
cent of the vote, and 17 delegates, to 26
per cent and six delegates forCarter.
IN MONTANA, with three per cent in,
Carter had 50 per cent for 10 delegates
to 41 per cent and nine delegates for

Israelis
stop Arab
shopkeeper
protests

HEBRON, Occupied West Bank (AP)-Israeli
troops using crowbars and bolt-cutters forced Arab
shopkeepers to open their stores yesterday and end a
strike protesting car-bomb attacks on two West Bank
mayors. Extremist Jewish settlers said the maiming
of the Palestinian mayors was not revenge enough for
six slain Hebron settlers.
Israeli troops on roads and rooftops protected gun-
carrying Israelis from Hebron's Jewish suburb,
Kiryat Arba, as they gathered in the center of this
Arab city for a traditional memorial service a month
after Palestinian gunmen killed six settlers and
wounded 16 others.
THE CEREMONY TOOK place one day after
unidentified terrorists placed car-bombs that crip-
pled two leading West Bank mayors. The mourners
were united in saying the bombings were only "half
payment" for the May 2 ambush here.
West Bank Arabs, shocked at Monday's bombings,

joined a general strike that closed most town halls
and shops until Israeli troops forced many businesses
to open.
At one shop, the souvenir store of Bethlehem Mayor
Elias Freij, troops used a metal-cutting torch to
break the locks on the shutters.
ISRAELI AUTHORITIES HAVE not announced
any findings in their investigation. Tel Aviv
newspapers reported receiving telephoned claims of
responsibility for the bombings but the groups-the
Sons of Zion and the Anti-Terror Unit-had never
been heard of before.
Extremist settlers were the focus of most
suspicions. Yossi Dayan of the rightist Kach
movement stated his desire for vengeance for the
Hebron ambush a month ago. "What you saw yester-
day (Monday) was just the beginning," Dayan said
beside the grave of American-born Eli Hazeev, one of
the six dead settlers.
