Foreign stu dents tore down the posters and the clash esca lated.” The Africans charged the posters called them “black devils.” African students told UPI Wednes day they also had aroused jealousy among Chinese male students by dating Chinese girls. All the injured except one African with a serious eye injury have left the hospital, the unidentified Chinese spokesman said. The Shanghai education official said police sped to the dormitory to “prevent the Chinese students from attacking the foreign dormitory. “Authorities set out to evacuate the foreign stu dents but the Chinese students blocked all rescue efforts. In the scuffles, foreign students, faculty members and police trying to protect them were injured. By 9 o’clock most of the foreign students had been evacuated” to a Shanghai hotel, the official said. The Chinese official also promised remedial action in an aparent attempt to sooth the ruffled feelings of Third World nations whose students were involved. “Chinese students at all schools in Shanghai will be given education in discipline, and quarreling, fighting, goring crowds and anarchism will be criticized,” the official said.

Call 845-2611 United Press International WASHINGTON — In a new re port, the CIA for the second time predicts that the Soviet Union will have to start importing oil within a few years. Rep. Les Aspin, D-Wis., said Sunday the CIA believes Soviet oil production may begin to decline next year and the communist coun- Airline rates scheduled to increase soon United Press International GENEVA, Switzerland — Passenger fares and cargo rates on all international flights will go up between 9 and 15 percent as of Sep tember 1 to offset a doubling of fuel prices this year. A complex package involving 59 separate agreements was thrashed out in two weeks of negotiations by representatives of 60 major carriers and announced Monday. The package is subject to approval by governments. Increases in fares and cargo rates will vary depending on routes, geo graphical regions and the type of ticket, the International Air Trans port Association said. But the boosts will be “within a broad bracket of 9 to 15 percent. ” a statement said. IATA said the cost of aviation fuel so far this year has doubled as a re sult of oil price increases. Last year fuel costs were an aver age 18 percent of an airlines total operating costs, a figure that now has risen to 25 percent. tries as a whole will become oil im porters rather than exporters within three years. The Wisconsin Democrat is chairman of the House subcommit tee on intelligence oversight. “We may be seeing the peak of Soviet oil production right now,” he said in a statement Sunday. According to CIA estimates, he said, Soviet production reached a record high 11.73 million barrels a day in April and then fell to 11.35 million in May. While it might be possible to “gloat” over the drop in Soviet pro duction, Aspin said, the result would be a decrease in the world supply and more upward pressure on oil prices. He said te CIA now believes Soviet production may fall by a third in the next six years. “The CIA says that at the very best the Russians will be producing 10 million barrels a day in 1985, but if luck isn’t with them production of only 8 million is very likely,” he said. For several years, Aspin said, the communist countries have been ex porting about 1 million barrels a day to the West. “The CIA now forecasts that as early as 1982 the communist nations could be importing 700,000 barrels a day,” he said. “That means that instead of adding 3 percent to the oil in word trade, the communist states would be subtracting 2 percent.” Aspin said a similar forecast by the CIA in 1977 involved it in “con siderable controversy,” with critics arguing the CIA had ignored con servation measures that might be imposed by a totalitarian state. He said the CIA later issued another study in which all refer ences to Soviet oil imports were dropped. “Now, after two more years of as sessing a growing body of data, the CIA has reached essentially the same conclusion as in 1977 — that the Soviet Union in the very near future will need to import oil,” As- pin’s statement said.

Jarcuse, a professor at the Uni- isity of California, arrived in Inkfurt May 18 to address a meet ing of fellow philosophers with a speech titled “Progress and Pro foundness.” Colleagues said that after the speech, Marcuse complained of heart problems. He was treated at hospitals in Frankfurt and Munich and later moved to the hospital at Starnherg, 20 miles southwest of Munich, his West German publish ing house Suhrkamp said. Born to upper-middle class Jewish parents in Berlin on July 19, 1898, Marcuse was educated at the Universities of Berlin and Frieburg before fleeing the rise of Hitler in 1932. After a year in Geneva and and a year in Paris, Marcuse went to New York where he joined Columbia University’s Social Research Insti tute in 1934. After becoming a naturalized American citizen in 1940, Marcuse joined the Office of Strategic Serv ices — the wartime predecessor of the CIA —»where he headed the Europe Section between 1942 and 1950. Later, he spent three years at the Russian Institute of Columbia Uni versity and Harvard’s Russian Re search Center until Brandeis Uni versity lured him away with a pro fessorship of political science 1954.
