GENEVA — American and
Soviet negotiators, meeting
under a threat from the Kremlin
to break off nuclear arms con
trol talks with Washington, con
ferred for almost three hours
Wednesday on limiting
medium-range atomic missiles
in Europe.
Chief U.S. negotiator Paul H.
Nitze and his Soviet counter-
Arms talks continue despite Soviet chill
part, Yuli A. Kvitsinsky, sche
duled a new round of talks for
next week.
Rumors of Soviet threats to
pull out of the arms talks sur
faced in Geneva Tuesday and
were confirmed Wednesday by
Soviet Central Committee mem
ber Leonid M. Zamyatin during
a meeting in Haniburg, West
Germany.
“We don’t want to participate
in negotiations leading to a
situation in which powerful new
missiles and warheads will be
stationed in Europe,” Zamyatin
said, referring to the U.S. Cruise
and Pershing-2 nuclear missiles
scheduled to be deployed in
Western Europe by the end of
the year.
Nikolai Chervov, a Soviet mis
sile expert, asked a West Ger
man-Soviet symposium, “What
would be the point of negotiat
ing further once the deploy-
Rumors of Soviet
threats to pull out of the
arms talks surfaced
T uesday
ment of missiles has started?”
West German spokesman Pe
ter Boenisch told reporters the
two Soviets were trying to stir up
the West German peace move
ment, which opens a campaign
against missile deployment
Thursday.
The two-hour, 55-minute
meeting in Geneva between
Nitze and Kvitsinsky was the
95th negotiating session on in
termediate-range nuclear mis
siles since the talks began two
years ago.
White House spokesman Lar
ry Speakes said Soviet threats to
break off the talks extended to
Strategic Arms Reduction Talks
on intercontinental nuclear
weapons as well as the Interme
diate-range Nuclear Force talks.
Speakes told reporters Tues^
day the United States will re
main at the negotiating table.
Western diplomats in Geneva
said this meant the Soviets
would have to break off the talks
unilaterally.
Western officials said the
Soviets want to combine the
strategic and intermediate-
range missile talks into one
negotiating forum because the
U.S. Cruise and Pershing-2 mis
siles represent a “back-door ex
tension” of Washington’s inter
continental strike capability.
Factional fighting
in Lebanon kills 47
United Press International
BEIRUT, Lebanon — Rival
militias armed with rockets and
machine guns fought day-long
battles Wednesday in northern
I Lebanon, killing 47 people, and
Syrian-backed gunners pound
ed army positions south of
Beirut.
The attack on the army
jclouded efforts by President
Amin Gemayel to consolidate
the 16-day-old cease-fire and
schedule peace talks between
Lebanon’s warring factions.
| The president called a prepa
ratory meeting Thursday and
set an Oct. 20 date for formal
peace talks, but was unable to
name a site because of Syrian
and opposition objections.
Rocket and machine-gun bat
tles broke out in Tripoli in the
morning and raged throughout
the day despite efforts to
\ arrange a cease-fire between a
i Sunni Moslem militia group and
pro-Syrian Communist Party
ighters.
Security sources said the Sun
ni Moslem Tawheed group
seized control of the port of Tri
poli, 42 miles north of Beirut,
and then came under heavy
attack by the Communist Party.
Police said 47 people were kil
led in the fighting.
The sources said the Ta
wheed group apparently was
trying to seize the port to facili
tate the entry of supplies for
Palestine Liberation Organiza
tion chief Yasser Arafat, whose
G uerrillas in the Tripoli area
ace Syrian attempts to oust
them.
In Souk el Gharb, 8 miles
southeast of the capital, six gov
ernment soldiers were wounded
in an hour-long artillery battle
with Syrian-backed gunners,
state-run Beirut Radio said.
The Lebanese army declined
further comment on the clashes
in the Shouf mountain village
considered crucial to the de
fense of Beirut.
“The security situation has
partially deteriorated between
Souk el Gharb and (the Druze
stronghold of) Aley,” the radio
said. “The Lebanese army is de
fending itself against repeated
attacks.”
The peace talks were aimed at
preventing a new civil war be
tween majority Moslems and the
ruling minority Christians. The
1975-76 civil war killed 40,000
people.
A preparatory committee was
scheduled to meet Thursday at a
Lebanese Health Ministry build
ing on the so-called green line
dividing Christian east Beirut
from the Moslem west.
Italian troops in the
peacekeeping force in Beirut
will guard the meeting, and
Beirut radio said there would be
adequate security against any
assassination threats.

Moreno
continued from page 1
no for the shooting of Boyd.
Moreno spoke briefly to re
porters on his way from jail to
court for arraignment on an
aggravated kidnapping charge.
“All I’m guilty of is buying a
gun,” he said.
Chief Wharton County Sher
iffs Deputy Otis Hilderbrand
said Moreno had not given
police a statement.
College Station Police Capt.
John Kennedy said the initial
argument apparently was re
lated to Moreno’s separation
from his wife.
Glen Lucas of Donna, a re
tired Hidalgo County constable
who employed Moreno for
seven years at a lawnmower
shop, said the man was a valued
employee.
“He didn’t drink,” Lucas said.
“He didn’t smoke. He was quiet
and easy going. He just had one
failing and that was women.”
Miller said Garza called Col
lege Station police before the
shooting to tell them that he
knew his brother-in-law was
going to leave town. Moreno was
on probation here for driving
while intoxicated, Miller said.
