Call Elaine McClurkan 693-4409 United Press International BOGOTA, Colombia — American pilots swooping in for clandes tine pickups of some of the world’s best marijuana may be in for a surprise when they run into Colombian Air Force war jets playing for keeps. President Julio Cesar Turbay, in his first major move to end Col ombia’s thriving drug trade, has banned all unauthorized low flying over remote La Guajira peninsula, home of “Santa Marta Gold” marijuana. Some authoritative estimates put Colombia’s trade in marijuana and cocaine — brought in from Peru and Bolivia for transshipment to America — at $1 billion, almost as much as the $1.5 billion it earns from its famed coffee beans. The flying ban goes into effect Nov. 1, when Interior Minister German Zea says any unauthorized plane flying under 7,000 feet in the forbidden area “runs the risk of being captured or shot down But even before the deadline, an air force jet opened fire on a suspected smuggler’s aircraft Oct. 24 around the La Guajira area, but failed to shoot it down, newspapers said. U.S. Ambassador Diego Asencio called in reporters this month to underline his concern about the danger to American pilots who defy the ban, either through ignorance or contempt for Colombian au thorities. “There are going to be people in the United States who haven’t heard about this restriction or are going to try to test it,” Asencio said. “I have every reason to believe the Colombian authorities are very serious about this. These guys are loaded for bear,” the ambassador said.

The remote peninsula, long cut off from normal ties to the rest of Colombia, has flourished as a paradise for smugglers who easily clear clandestine landing strips out of brush and use its scores of tiny, well hidden anchorages. Colombian goverment attempts to police the area have run into the traditionally tight society of a small, isolated population, combined with the muscle, cash and high-flying methods of American drug smugglers. The crackdown also set off" howls of protests from area residents, who complained the government was trying tp take away their liveli hood because the region lacks economic resources other than marijuana. In a public meeting in La Guajira, speaker after speaker called in effect for the goverment to hold off on drug enforcement unless it compensates the area with emergency development programs, v Before Turbay s election in June, some U.S. officials had noteda certain ambiguity on the part of Colombian authorities: they didni like the drug trade but considered it basically an American problem But now the Colombian establishment is reported to feel threatened by the new group of rich drug entrepeneurs and the vast pool of “black money” available to subvert the country’s legal and political structures. When Turbay took office Aug. 7, he pledged an all-out fight against the smugglers. Washington is helping bolster Colombian enforcement witk helicopters, communications equipment and training that has ran between $1 million and $2 million annually during the past three years and probably will increase. If the crackdown in La Guajira is successful, authorities expect smugglers will try other areas — possibly the sparsely populated eastern plains where 50,(XX) acres of marijuana already have been spotted in aerial survey. ‘One-stop’ home buying in future United Press International NEW YORK— In the not too dis tant future shopping for a new home in another part of the country' may be as easy as a visit to the local broker, thanks to franchised elec tronic real estate programs. There are many roadblocks to overcome before “one-stop home buying replaces the services of out side lawyers, title search and insur ance people, mortgage brokers and lenders, says Michael Jackson, executive vice president of Elec tronic Realty Associates of Shawnee Mission, Kan., one of several realty chains moving in this direction. The mobility of the American people has created a huge potential market. More than 10,000 Ameri cans move to a new community every day. In the past several years about 40 percent of all Americans have moved to different homes. Started in 1972 with 18 franchised brokers, ERA now has 2,500 brok ers and this year will conclude about $12 billion worth of business. What the plan does is give a local broker access to both ends of the na tional market. A customer who plans to move to a different area of the country, for example, can visit an ERA broker in his present locale. The customer is put in touch with an ERA broker in the area to which he plans to move, who transmits facsimile pictures and descriptive information on possible homes over the Wide Area Tele phone Service (WATS) lines. The customer indicates the homes that are suitable, and within hours an appointment will be made with the distant broker to see the homes. Jackson said the ERA system also assures the home seller maximum exposure. The firm offers another sera also dependent on electronics munications, called the Hu Buyers Protection Plan and Hoi Sellers’ Protection Warrantie Jackson said. “If a problem develops, thesii scriher can dial a toll-free nuira and one of our staff will arrange «i a contractor for repair service, said. “What the system amounts! this stage, is an armchair metW percent l usu corr grot criti ing the Ii Moi of i pro< al I has rang chih slee; coui “ch< fear and suit. that Bl im TUL‘ non-agr oil impc spendin the dol Treasm Blumen Blumi the Tub sessmen elopme dent Ca econom) Just 1 we see < substant deficit,” “Over there has in Unite exports period, t same thr an increa non-peti United S househunting,” Jackson said, that can he a vast saving of bi energy and money for sellers, a tomers and real estate brokers."
