Military druggers WASHINGTON (AP) — Representative Lester Wolff (Dem.

Wolff said the problem’s roots are similar to those which caused drug abuse among U.S, troops in Viet- nam: idle off-duty time, lack of clear understanding of the military mission involved and the availability of drugs.

(AP) - A @-week-old fetus within the womb will die without a delicate blood transfusion. Its Rh positive blood is being destroyed by its mother’s Rh negative blood. In an operation today, doctors will try to make the fetus's blood compatible with its mother's by in- setting a needle through the uterine wall to inject 50 to 100 cubic centimetres of ‘good blood” into the fetus, said . spokesmen at Norton-Chil- drens Hospital. The mother, Katherine Shifflett, 22, of Jacksonville, Fla., was given blood tests and ultrasound teats Monday to determine the exact location of the fetus. Her unborn child would have oaly a five-per-cent chance of survival if labor were induced and it were delivered now. Dr. Ernest Ferrell, Mrs, ‘Shiflett's Florida physician, said the transfugion must be done nq later than today, and a second will be needed before labor can be induced A hospital spokesman said Monday that the operation takes only a few minutes. Doctors will know shortly after the operation whether it is @ success, spokesmen said.

He describes that strategy as “a positive course that will result in a situation in which the varlous (African) countries Involved will ask those who are there now to leave. Lh) Vance gave a "preview of the administration’s new focus on Africa in-an ap- pearance Monday before the House of Representatives international relations committee in which he sought to dispel the idea that the administration has reverted to a cold war ap- proach in dealing with the Russians. The basis of U.S. policy, he taki the committee, “areas of cooperation’ with the Russians. He said that “we hope to see some reciprocal . action .on the other side.” |. DEPENDS ON AFRICA In Africa, be said, U.S. ac- tions will be founded on “the African perception that we see them and their problem in their own terms, and not as an arena for East-West differences.”* Vance was expected to ex- pand on these themes today in.a policy speech before a Jaycees | convention - in Atlantic City, N In his cearance before the House committee, Vance said the administration proposes to has' e ouster of Russian and Cuban forces through expanded economic in cold war - and military aid to needy African countries, provided with respect for’ thelr in- dependence, while avolding turning the continent into an arena for conflict between the superpowers. “Our task is to create the circumstances that make their (the Russian-Cuban) presence there no longer justifiable,” Vance sald. LAWMAKERS CONFUSED His House testimony was in response to a letter to Carter from committee . members whosaid they were confused and concerned about U.S. policy in recent months, particularly by statements by some ad- ministration officials The letter coincided with publication of a lengthy and strongly worded artlcle in the Soviet Communist party newspaper Pravda which accused the United States of seeking to wotsen relations by adopting policy changes it termed “dangerous to the cause of peace.” A key point raised during the give-and-fake session with Vance was the charges by Carter's national security adviser, Zbigniew Br- zezinski, that Cubans had trained the Katangan in- .vaders of Zaire last month— a claim questioned by several lawmakers and denied by President Fidel Castro. Vance said there was “general agreement” within the administration on the Cuban training role although there had been “some disagreement” on whether Cubans actually crossed the Angola border into Zaire with the Katangan rebels, — ‘Undercover warrants VANCOUVER (CP)RCMP and Vancouver police have issued warrants for the arrest of 160 persons as a - result of a joint undercover operation that began in October, 1977, RCMP.

General Saad Shazli, sus- pended from his post Monday and ordered to return to Cairo, sald in an interview that the committee could. meet in Cairo or anywhere else. But he said he would not return to Cairo without guarantees that he would be able to state his case and not be arrested. The 56-year-old ambasaador, who was ar- chief of staff during the 1973 Arab-Israeli war, rejfted accusations by the semil-official Cairo newspaper Al-Ahram that he was selling himself to Egypt's enemies. : “My decision was ab- solutely personal and had nothing to do with anyone else,” he said-when told the newspaper had referred to Syria and Libya.

Armenia keeps faith despite USSR By SETH MYDANS ECHMIADZIN, U.S.S.R. (AP) — Not far from where the Bible says Noah landed his ark, the Cathedral of Echmiadzin remains the ‘ centre of a bustling religious community in the officially atheist Soviet Republic of Armenia. “The knot that tles all Armenians together,” a priest described the cathedral in an interview “within sight of Mount Ararat, where some believe Noah's Ark came to rest following the Great Flood of the Old Testament. The cathedral, seat of the Armenian Orthodox Church,. forms the focal point for about five million ethnic Atmenians around the world, More than 500,000 Armenians live in the United States, and many make pilgrimmages to Ech- mnia Some even return permarentiy, becoming citizens of the Soviet Union. One year after Christ was crucified, two of his disciples, Bartholamew and Thaddeus (Jude), came to ‘Armenia .to spread the - gospel, and died as martyrs. But by the year 301 Ar- had been converted, and became the first country to adopt Christianity as its- official religion. PROREGANDA HURTS y the church forms 4 — striking contrast with’ tha ~ remnants of the Russian ‘ Orthedox’ Church, where religion has withered In the ' face of the Soviet Union's atheist propaganda. On a recent Sunday, Ech- miadzin, one of $5 fun- tioning Armenian churches , for a population of about three million, was crammed with worshippers, and its grounds had a holiday air. Family groups posed for photographs and crowds pushed forward to kiss the priéste’ hands. Not all are believers, one young Armenian said, but all hold the church in high respect, and recognize the priests as godly men. The church's patriarch, Vazgen I, has estimated that twothirds of 60,000 children born each year in Armenia are baptized. : Among the families posing for pictures were groups holding lambs with red ribbons around their necks— offerings, made with the blessing of the priests, to give thanks for marriages, births, answered prayers or recovery from {liness. FROM PAGAN RITE The rite, known in Ar- menian as Matakh, ls a holdover from the ‘animal sacrifice of pagan religions of pre-Christian times, but has been Incorporated Into the ritual of the Armenian Orthodox Church. Even non- believers practise it. Despite the vigor and wealth of the Armenian church, the young Armenian said, atheist ropaganda and the stigma against religion in Communist party-run organizations are taking their toll. “It’s sad, but bit by bit religion is disappearing from the land,” he said. “Most young gy are not ape Fam, aot a He’ ‘ead. ee a! his - con- temporaries have grown up ina society where the church is like a decorative part of e, “We have too late realized that we are missing a very important, very pure part of life,"' he said.
