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.

La Guajira, which juts into the Caribbean, is mainly flat, dry,
sandy land but also includes the Santa Marta mountains, where
170,000 acres of some of the world’s best marijuana is reported ripen
ing on the slopes.
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
