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 command” of their two parties later in the day and sald “any violator will be referred to Lebanese author- ities."’ :

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.

-Tuesday that

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.”

- $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.” ..

Billy Carter's personal account before the primary, reappeared In the account in May and June, 1976, and then was transferred back to the warehouse account.

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.

In Washington, Hodding Carter, a state department 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 city.

“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. -

ficers. ot

“] think we should deal with individual candidates on an Individual basis,” Fitzsimons said Monday in a speech to the Dorian Group, Washington state's largest gay rights organization. “Tye learned not to stereotype people."

However, Fitzsimons, a former New York City assistant chief, said he couldn't promise homosexual police can- didates ‘the same warm reception (from fellow of- ficera) Hat I've gotten here tonlght."*

Fitzsimons agreed with

some Dorian Group mem: bers that sensitivity training for police, both in-service and during cadet training, would help officers deal with minority problema, in- cluding those of the gay com- munity.

But he said budget cuts have trimmed the former 26- week police academy course to 11 weeke, and has limited the amount of time patrol offleera can take for in: service training,

Fitzimons said he has -

issued ‘‘no militant or positive policy’ to the department on minority Issues, including gay rights. “T belleve we should be open and falr on all issues and that all people should be treated fairly," he aaid.

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
