Page 4-Tuesday, June 8, 1982-The Michigan Daily British press for Argentine surrender FromTheAssociatedPress British troops outflanked the embat- tled Argentine garrison by capturing high ground north of Stanley yesterday and Britain's commander urged the Argentine general to surrender and "end the killing," British press reports said. F The domestic news agency Press Association said "no information was available in London" on Brig. Gen. Mario Menendez' reply to the plea from Maj. Gen. Jeremy Moore, commander of the British ground forces massed for assault on the capital of the Falkland Islands. THE DEFENSE Ministry declined comment on the report. Press Association, whose correspon- dents are briefed regularly by high British government officials, said in an unattributed report that Moore radioed Menendez on a VHF transmitter using a Spanish-speaking British marine cap- tain as interpreter. "Let's end the killing," the agency quoted Moore as saying. EARLIER, THE British Defense Ministry said Argentine warplanes bombed the advancing British troops yesterday without causing casualties and that British gunners shelled the Argentine garrison. Ministry spokesman Ian McDonald said the Argentine bombing had started in "the last day or so" when freezing fog and rain ended. McDonald said the British troops, believed to number about 7,500, were consolidating their position around Stanely - and "patrolling forward territory" near the capital. IN LONDON, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher met for 90 minutes with her inner "War Cabinet" to review developments on the Falklands, 8,000 miles away near the tip of South America. But British officials have made it clear that the decision to attack Stanley is n Moore's hands. McDonald said British soldiers, in- cluding Gurkha mercenaries from Nepal, were mopping up "Argentine pockets of resistance" inland from Stanley, which is on the east coast of East Falkland, the main island on the archipelago that had been a British colony for 149 years until Argentina in- vaded April 2. Pontiff urges Reagan In Br ief Complied from Associated Press and United Press International reports U.S. to locate young men not registered for draft WASHINGTON- Ninety-three percent of the eligible young men have registered for the draft, and government officials are moving to locate those who haven't. Comparison of Selective Service registrations with Social Security files is expected to get underway this week, said Selective Service spokeswoman Joan Lamb. While saying that it is not a special campaign to complete registrations, she added that the agency feels obliged to let eligible men know the process is beginning so they can register voluntarily. Because it will take some time to complete the cross-matching, she said it is unlikely that any warning letters will be sent out before the end of this month or early July. Under the law, men are required to register within 30 days of their 18th bir- thday. Failure to do so is a felony punishable by five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. U.S. helicopter fired on WASHINGTON- An unarmed Navy helicopter was attacked by heavy machine gun fire from a Nicaraguan patrol boat yesterday in international waters, the State Department reported. "We are protesting this incident to the Nicaraguan government," said department spokeswoman Susan Pittman. She said the helicopter, from the USS Trippe, was.fired upon shortly after 3 p.m. EDT. Neither the Trippe nor the helicopter was damaged. No fire was returned, she said, adding that the Trippe and the helicopter were "engaged in routine naval activities." Storm kills 22 in New England A "hellish" storm likened to a hurricane crashed through the Midwest with 90-mph winds yesterday, while hundreds more people fled a New England flood which has left 14 dead and seven missing. Just before dawn, a storm 150 miles wide tore through eastern Kansas into Missouri and Iowa, flattening homes, clipping down trees and power lines, wrecking parked airplanes and blacking out portions of cities such as Topeka, Kan., and Kansas City, Mo. A tornado hit the northwestern Iowa community of Sibley late Sunday, destroying 20 homes, damaging 50 others and injuring 10 people. The weekend deluge of up to 11 inches of rain in southern New England, which forced the evacuation of 1,300 people in Connecticut, also found vic- tims in Rhode Island as 250 people fled their homes along the rising Pawtuxet River. All of southern New England, except Cape Cod, remained under a flood warning. Two Abscam appeals denied WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court, in a possible setback for all those convicted in the FBI's Abscam inquiry, rebuffed an appeal yesterday from two Philadelphia city councilmen caught in the celebrated probe. The court refused to hear arguments tht Harry Jannotti and George Sch- wartz had been "entrapped" illegally in the sting operation, which also net- ted seven members of Congress who have since left office. It was the first Abscam conviction to reach the high bench, but several other cases that present more compelling legal issues are now making their way through lower federal courts. They include the cases of seven members of Congress found guilty by federal juries. "The Abscam investigation has not presented any really unique questions of law," U.S. Attorney Peter Vaira said in Philadelphia after the court an- nounced its first action in an Abscam case. "There was a lot of publicity, but the questions of law were not that unique," added Vaira, who directed the prosecution of Jannotti and Schwar- tz. Kirkpatrick says U.S. 'inept' in foreign relations policy NEW YORK - The United States is "inept" in international relations because of its weakening role at the United Nations, U.N. Ambassador Jeane Kirkpatrick said yesterday. "I believe the decline of U.S. influence in the U.N. is part of the decline of U.S. influence in the world and that it is a direct reflection of what I see as a persisting U.S. ineptitude in international relations," Mrs. Kirkpatrick said at a luncheon sponsored by the Heritage Foundation in New York. Mrs. Kirkpatrick said the United States has been losing its influence around the world for decades, especially at the United NATIONS. "We have not been good at the politics of the United Naitons, she said. "We simply have behaved like a bunch of amateurs," Mrs. Kirkpatrick said. "The Soviets, the Asian states, the Syrians, the PLO - and now recently the British - exercise influence in that body which we cannot even hope to ap- proximate," she said. to promote VATICAN CITY (AP) - Pope John Paul II urged a weary President Reagan yesterday to "step forward at this crucial moment in history" to work for world peace. In remarks following a 50-minute audience between Reagan and the pope, both targets of assassination at- tempts last year, the'pontiff also said the "grave crisis" in Lebanon merits world attention "because of the danger it contains of further provocation in the Middle East, with immense consequen- ces for world peace." REAGAN, describing his 10-day European tour as a "pilgrimage for peace," pledged "to do everything possible ... to help bring a real lasting peace throughout the world." Speaking in English, the Polish-born pontiff, 62, remarked, "The duty of peace peace falls especially upon the leaders of the world. It is up to the represen- tatives of governments and peoples to work to free humanity not only from wars and conflicts but from the fear that is generated by ever-more sophisticated and deadly weapons." John Paul, referring to the "absur- dity of war," called for negotiations to end the arms race and free "immense resources that can be used to alleviate misery and feed millions of hungry human beings." LATER yesterday, President Reagan arrived in London to a royal welcome and assurances of friendship from America's staunchest ally despite a politely concealed annoyance over U.S. diplomatic tactics in the British war to retain the Falkland Islands.
