TUNIS, Tunisia — A guerrilla
attack on a Tunisian mining center
has not been all bad for the regime of
president-for-life Habib Bourguiba.
The Jan. 26 attack cost 41 lives and
more than 100 wounded around the
town of Gafsa.
But it also brought a groundswell
of national solidarity, muting com
plaints for now about Bourguiba’s
political domination of the nation de
spite a semi-retirement forced by ill
health and age.
The Tunisian guerrillas, trained
across the border in Libyan camps,
sought to revive memories of riots in

the capital two years ago over prices
and jobs that caused up to 150
deaths.
“I think Bourguiba should leave
with all his clique and claque,” said a
recent university graduate — one of
the 70 percent of Tunisia’s burgeon
ing population now too young to re
member the bulldog-chinned presi
dent’s role as a George Washington
in gaining independence from
France in 1956. “But we won’t
accept interference from a foreign
country.”
Skyscrapers mingle with faded
colonial buildings in Tunis. Streets
bustle with traffic and crowds throng
sidewalks. Nobody goes hungry. But
young people are hardest hit by un
employment that hovers around 25
percent.
A nation of 6.4 million sandwiched
between Algeria and Libya on the
Mediterranean coast, Tunisia ranks
among the top-most developing na
tions in economic growth.
“But there is a very vocal group of
semi-educated people who couldn’t
get the jobs they want and who won
der where they’re going,” says a di
plomat. “That’s an explosive situa
tion. ”
The guerrilla attack has been attri
buted to Libyan strongman Moam-
mar Khadafy’s rancor over Bour
guiba’s refusal to unite Tunisia with
Libya in 1974. There also was a dis
pute over offshore oil rights and
apparent irritation by Islamic hard
liner Khadafy at having pro-Western
Tunisia, among the most open of
Arab societies, as an “oasis of mod
eration” next door.
The well-planned attack came
partly through the back door from
Algeria, trapping an unsuspecting
military garrison on a weekend.
Many of the guerrillas originally had
gone to Libya in search of jobs. Most
were from Gafsa, a phosphate min
ing town with a history of anti
government actions.
Most attackers were captured af
ter a number of hostages were killed.
But some held out for several days
and were sheltered by relatives or
sympathizers.
Western nations quickly came to
Tunisia’s aid: France with the loan of
transport planes and helicopters, the
United States by speeding up arms
shipments. The Carter administra
tion also promised credit for more
weapons likely to total more than
$100 million and include rocket
armed helicopters.
The biggest fear now is a campaign
by Khadafy-trained terrorists, some
of whom may be slipping in with
Tunisian workers now being thrown
out by Libya.
Officials are particularly worried
about possible attacks on hotels at
beaches where 1.5 million tourists
flock each year. Tourism ranks only
behind oil and Gafsa’s phosphate
mines as a foreign exchange earner.
Bourguiba, officially 76 but be
lieved to be past 80, has been bedrid
den in recent years but has improved
in past months. He is again taking an
active part in all major government
decisions.
Labor unions whose strike led to
the 1978 riots have been broken.
Student activists have been systema
tically excluded from university life
or drafted into the army, although
campus strikes continue.
The most recent crackdown came
against leaders of a budding Islamic
fundamentalist movement spurred
by the rise of Khomeini in Iran and
known as the “Moslem Brothers.” A
number were jailed in the weeks

Court says parent OK not

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
United Press International
CINCINNATI — A federal
appeals court says minors can re
ceive contraceptives from family
planning clinics without parents
knowing about it.
The court decided constitutional
rights of minors outweighed parents’
fears of increased promiscuity.
"Minors possess a constitutionally
protected right of privacy, ” the 6th
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled
Tuesday. “As with adults, the
minor’s right of privacy includes the
