BEIRUT (AP) — Fighting
broke out in three residentlal
areas on Tuesday as the
private armies of Lebanon's
two mator right-wing
Christian parties defled a
ceasefire called by their
leaders after four days of
bloodshed. ,

Police said at least 15
persons have been killed and
36 wounded since Saturday.

Premier Salim El Hoss,
accompanying President
Elias Sarkis, a Christian, on
a visit to Syria, told repor-
ters he will resign today to
make way for a new cabinet
to run lawless Lebanot.

Hoss, a Moslem, heads an
eight-man cabinet. of tech-
nocrats that tried for 29
months to cool tensions after
the 1975-76 Lebanese civil,
He made the announcement
in Damascus during talks
Sarkis held with Syrian
President Hafez Assad in an
attempt to defuse the ten-
sions, Syrian troops make up
most of the Arab League
force formed to police the
civil war armistice.

The inter-Christian
fighting in Beirut pitted
milltlas of Pierre Gemayel’s
Phalange party against the
militias of former president
Camille Chamoun, who leads
the National Liberal party.

Gemayel and Chamoun,
who arranged the ceasefire,
announced ai “unified

parties later in the day and

high

NEW YORK (AP) — Gold
prices hit new highs Tuesday
While the U.S. dollar im-
proved against most
currencies in New York and
abroad,

Fears of another steep rise
in world oil prices and a
cutback in officialsupplies of
gold drove the price of
bullion in Zurich to a record
closing high of $255.875 an
ounce. Monday’s close was
$251.125. The previous record
closing high In Zurich was
$252.975 last Thursday.

Gold also hit a record
closing high in London, It
ended the day at $254.75,
after reaching $255.50 at the
afternoon fixing, compared
with $251.75 Monday. The
previgus record closing high
in London was §253.375 on
Feb. 22.

In New York, dealers said
concern over the impact of
tising oi] prices appeared to
focus more on countries
other than the United States,
such as West Germany and
Japan, which import large
quantities of oil. Rising oil
prices alsa might Initially
inflate demand for U.S.
dollars to pay for oil, at least
until the funds are rein-
vested in other currencies.

In New York, late rates
Tuesday compared with
Monday rates included:
1.0077 West German marks
up from 1.8090; 4.4050
French francs up from
4.3605; 1.7200 Swisa Franca
up from 1.7195; and 214.35
Japanese yen up from 212.83,

e Canadian dollar rose
to 88,11 U.S. cents from 84.06
on Monday. The British
pound sterling rose to $2.0639
from $2.0471.

In London, the U.S. dollar
was also down against the
British pound. Late Tuesday
it cost $2,0586 to buy a pound
compared with §2.04428 at
the clos. Monday. Dealers
sald prospects of an oil price
hike helped the pound
because Britain haa almost
achieved self-sufficiency in
oil from its rich North Sea
fields.

In Tokyo, the U.S. dollar
opened nearly two yen
higher Wednesday — at
214,50 yen compared with the
previous day's clobe of
212.675 — then dipped to
214.35 in moderate early
trading.

Death squad
a possibility *

Temple cult is stalking U.S.
leaders, seeking to carry out
the last wishes of Rev. Jim
Jones.

The investigators,
reporting to the U.S. House
of Representatives foreign

- affairs committee after a

six-month investigation of

the murder of Repre-_
sentative Leo Ryan in

Guyana, said the possibility

that cultista have a ‘‘death

list™’ marking national
leaders for assassination
“should not be totally dis-

counted.”

“There is evidence to
suggest Jones and some of
his key Heutenants discussed .
and had ‘understandings’ to
eliminate various = in-
dividuals, including national
political leaders,’’ the House
staff report concluded.
“Time may diminish the
possible threat of this fac-
tor,”

Ryan, three U.S. jour-
nallsts and a cult defector
were shot to death al an
airstrip near the Peoples
Temples settlement in
Guyana last Nov. 18.

They had gone to in-
vestigate reports that Jones,
the cult leader, was holding
people against their will.
While Ryan .and his party
were under attack, Janes led
more than 900 cult members
ina ritual murder-suicide by
cyanide poisoning at the
“Jonestown settlement.

Several members of
Ryan's family, including his
daughter, Erin, and two

‘ sisters, Shella Ryan and

Shannon Torphy, attended
the congressional session
Tuesday,

Investigators told the com-
mittee there is cir-
cumstantial evidence that
Jones and his lieutenants
had planned to assassinate
Ryan if the congressman
could not be deceived about
conditiona at the settlement.

The House investigators
agreed with state depart-
ment findings that the
department’ had falled to
pursue earller warnings of
possible mass suicide af the
settlement.

The House report said the
state department had four
reports of potential violence
scattered in files but told
Ryan that danger was
“unlikely."'

It also sald one of the
department's worst
mistakes was Its failure to
act after receiving a written
warning from a cuit defector
in 1978 which said mass
suicide was being rehearsed.

The department rejected a

west by U.S, Ambassador
John Burke for authorlty to
ask the Guyana government
in Georgetown to watch the
cult more closely.

The defector's warning
was one factor that promp-
ted Burke to make the

request.

LONDON (Reuter) — A
startled Old Bailey criminal
court heard an allegation on
Jeremy
Thorpe, former leader of the
British | Liberal b party,
pro not one bu 0
ravings.

Thorpe, 50, is en triat
accused of plotting what is
alleged to have been, a
bungled attempt to kill
former male model Norman
Scatt. Scott claims they were’
once homesexuai lovers and,
the state alleges, the
politician wanted him
silenced.

Tuesday’s dramatic and

puzzling disclosure came

from Thorpe's
George Carman...

He was cross-examining
and sceking to discredit
testimony of Peter Bessell, a
former Liberal member of
Parliament and. the chief
prosecution witness. He got _
Bessel! to admit to being a |
hypocrite: and a .liar, *
although Bessell insisted he
now is telling the truth:

Then Carman put it to~
Bessell that he had once
asserted that Tharpe.had in
1970 proposed another
murder to him — “of a man
called Hetherington.”

Billy denies it

ATLANTA, Ga. (AP) —

published accusation that ha
helped finance the 1976 U.S.
presidential campaign of his
brother, Jimmy, with

- $500,000 that had been loaned ,

to the family peanut
warehouse.

The accusation is con-

tained in an article written -

for The Nation magazine by
free-lance journalist Peter
Peckarsky of Washington,
D.C, The article is to appear
in the May 19 issue of the
magazine, a spokesman for
The Nation said Tuesday.
The Journal sald the Peck-
arsky article alleges that

Billy Carter, took $500,000
from the peanut: warehouse
account at the Atlanta-based
National Bank of Georgia
and deposited it in his per-
sonal accountat the bank ‘‘in
the month before the
decisive April 27, 1976,
Pennsylvania Demédcratic
primary.” ..

Repression alleged

PARIS (AP) — An official
of Amnesty International
said Tuesday the alleged
killing of about 100
schoolchildren in the Central
African Empire was part of
“a violent repression against
& growing popular oppo-
sition” to Emperor Bokassa

In Rabat, Juan Juba, the
empire's ambassador to
Morocco, said the allegation
that his government killed as
many as 100 youngsters,
aged eight to 14, last month
for rock-throwing protests
against the wearing of school
uniforms was unbelievable.

The French division of the
London-based human-rights
organization, which wen the
1977 Nobel Peace Prize for
ita work on the plight of
political prisoners, issued a
statement Monday alleging
the school children were
suffocated, stabbed and
beaten to death in April.

spokesman, said the
department has received
reports that between seven
and 40 youths were killed in
the Central African Empire
following a roundup in mid:
ap in Bangui, the capital

“Planes grounded"

OTTAWA (CP) — All
Transport Canada planes
were grounded for main-

tenance checks after a crash .

May 1 that killed two federal
government inspectors.

Inspectors had threatened
to stay off work until
reassured that all Transport
Canada planes were
receiving proper main-
tenance, the department
confirmed today. .

Peter Arpin, chief of the
department's civil
aeronautics branch, said 31
of 91 planes have been
cleared. The fleet includes 55
fixed-wing aircraft and 36
helicopters. :

A maintenance team was
set up following the crash of

a Transport-Canada Beech-
craft 90 near Napierville,

e, 7

Six days after the crash all
Beachcraft twin-engined
planes registered in Canada
were ordered grounded until
attachment fittings had been
checked for cracks.

But some inspectors felt
fatigue cracks should have
been spotted in the wing of
the fallen Beechcraft during
normal maintenance. A
regular maintenance
procedure involves the use of
& dye solution to detect
eracks which can indicate

- metal fatigue.

Arpin said the work should
be completed by the end of
the week.

He’s not opposed. -

Countries join ranks

MANILA (Reuter) —
Western industrialized
countries joined ranks with
developing countries
Tuesday in demanding that

Communist powera do more °

fo. expand international
trade and help poorer
countries,

The move was a new twist
in a Unlted Nations Con-
ference on Trade and
Development (UNCTAD), in
its second week. Until now
the attack againal pro-
tectioniam had been directed

‘at the U.S., Japan and the

Europein Economie
Community.

The Soviet delegate said in
A policy speech that it was
incorrect for developing
countries to apply the same

criteria to Communist and .

capitalist countries, par-
ticularly as the Communists

had no colonialist past to
» atone for. ‘

The issue was raised in the
open sessions by Kenya and
the Soviet Union, but much
of the argument was in
closed meetings at which
delayed negollating sessions
on this subject began
Tuesday. ic
