Bishops synod
Canadians call for stand on nuclear war
Associated Press
VATICAN CITY — Canadian
bishops Tuesday urged an interna
tional assembly of bishops to take a
stand on the threat of nuclear war
and Third World debt, calling the is
sues two of “the most urgent prob
lems of our time.”
U.S. bishops attending the two-
week synod promptly supported the
Canadian initiative.
“The future of the world hangs
precariously on these two issues,”
Bishop Bernard Hubert of Saint
Jean-Longueuil, Quebec, president
of the Canadian Bishops Confer
ence, said in a written statement.
The statement said the synod
should issue a message that affirms
“the determination of Christians to
take part in building a better world
by confronting two of the most ur
gent problems of our time ...”
Hubert, who made the proposal
on behalf of more than 160 Ca
nadian bishops, later said, “The
synod should convey a word of hope
to the world, and we can do so by ex
pressing our shared preoccupation
over these two issues.”
Bishop James W. Malone of
Youngstown, Ohio, said he agreed it
was “appropriate for the synod of
bishops to express its concern about
these issues.”
Young said, “Both are matters of
great importance to the bishops of
the United States as expressed in
their 1983 collective pastoral letter
on peace and in the pastoral letter
on economic justice now scheduled
“The future of the world
hangs precariously on
these two issues. ”
— Bishop Bernard Hu
bert of Quebec
for completion in November 1986.”
The 1983 document condemned
first-strike usage of nuclear weapons
and demanded a halt to the growth
of superpower arsenals.
A draft of the 1986 pastoral letter
says U.S. foreign assistance should
be geared to meet basic human
needs and promote social and eco-
Pr<
nomic development rather than se
curity interests alone.
Pope John Paul II convened the
165-member extraordinary synod to
assess the impact of the. 1962-65 Sec
ond Vatican Council, which fash
ioned far-reaching reforms in lit
urgy, ecumenism, church
government and seminary educa
tion.
Hubert suggested that the bish
ops’ concern on the two issues lx* re
flected in a pastoral message that will
be issued at the end of the synod.
The pope has repeatedly called on
the world community to work out
measures to alleviate the “crushing
debt burden” on Third World coun
tries.
He also has condemned the nu
clear arms race, often warning of the
dangers of “a nuclear holocaust.”
Before the Geneva arms limita
tion talks resumed earlier this year,
the pope called on the United States
and the Soviet Union to renounce
“egoistic and ideological interests"
for the success of their negotiations.
Hubert said in his statement the
positions taken by the pontiff over
the years on major social, economic
and political questions “have en
hanced the credibility of the church
and (provided) a better understand
ing of what Christian life is all about.
“A more precise perception of
reality should encourage Christian
communities to continue their serv
ice of humankind,” the statement
said.
The synod has no power to set
policy but is strictly an advisory
body.
50,000 mourners fill stadium
for funeral of 12 slain blacks
Associated Press
South Africa —
MAMELODI,
Their arms raised in clenched-fist
salutes, up to 50,000 mourners
jammed a soccer stadium Tuesday
for the funeral of 12 blacks killed in
one of the bloodiest days in 15
months of rioting.
In Pretoria, President P.W. Botha
announced that he was lifting the
19-week-old state of emergency in
eight of 38 districts. He declared in a
statement, “The revolutionary cli
mate is fast losing momentum.”
The five-hour funeral and burial
service in Pretoria’s Mamelodi town
ship began and ended peacefully.
After talks with organizers, police
had agreed to keep out of sight at
Mamelodi and to lift riot funeral re
strictions, including a limit of 50
mourners.
Diplomats from 11 countries, in
cluding U.S. Embassy political coun
selor T im Carney, attended.
Winnie Mandela, wife of jailed
black leader Nelson Mandela, defied
her banning order to be at the sta
dium. Jo a standing ovation and
freedom chants, she told the throng,
“The blood of our heroes will be
avenged . . . We are here today to tell
you that the day when we shall lead
you to freedom is not far away.”
Mrs. Mandela’s eight-year-old
banning order bars her From attend
ing gatherings and restricts her to
the small town of Brandfort.
The flag of the outlawed African
National Congress guerrilla
movement was draped over the
dozen coffins in Pitjie Stadium, in
cluding those of Magdalene
Mlombo, a 69-year-old woman shot
to death by police, and Trocia Nd-
lovu, a two-month-old girl who died
from inhaling tear gas.
Nelson Mandela was head of the
armed wing of the African National
Congress when he was sentenced to
life in prison in 1964 for plotting
sabotage to overthrow white rule.
fire
Residents said police opened
without provocation on a vast crowd
of at least 50,000 protesters who
f athered Nov. 21 outside Mamelo-
i’s town hall to protest funeral re
strictions, rent hikes and use of sol
diers on riot patrols. Police said they
had been forced to battle “partic
ularly violent mobs” in the township
throughout that day. At the time,
police said 13 people were killed, not
counting the infant who died later.
White opposition legislators
joined black activists in demanding a
full government inquiry.
Police manned roadblocks at
township entrances but allowed free
access for television crews and jour
nalists. Mamelodi is outside the
emergency zone and not covered by
one-month-old rules limiting cover
age of unrest.

The upper Midwest dug out
Tuesday from the season’s first big
snowstorm, with Minneapolis towing
hundreds of cars from snow routes,
and cold air made its seasonal migra
tion into the Southeast while warm,
wet air melted snow in the North
west.
Off California, the Coast Guard
rescued crews of boats caught in 20-
foot waves that made a Coast Guard
surfboat turn over.
The list of record lows that started
in October got longer Tuesday as In
ternational Falls, Minn., chipped
four degrees off its former mark
with a low of 27 degrees below zero,
and Tower in northeastern Minne
sota hit 33 below. While relatively
warm rain melted Seattle’s snow and
ice, Yakima, Wash., posted a record
low of 1 below zero, and other parts
of the Northwest got wet snow.
The Midwest storm was blamed
for at least 26 deaths since Friday,
and more than a week of stormy
weather in the Northwest contrib
uted to 29 deaths.
Minnesota spent an estimated
$1.8 million to plow snow from Fri
day through Monday, said Curtis
Christie, maintenance engineer with
the state Department of Transporta
tion.
Western Maryland got its first
snowfall of the year, state police re
ported, and temperatures dropped
below freezing in parts of Tennes
see, with a low of 24 at Nashville,
and elsewhere in the Southeast.
Off San Francisco, the Coast
Guard rescued six people Tuesday
from an overturned sailboat, but a

its crew was rescued, and a Coast
Guard surfboat sent to its aid was
rolled completely over, as it is de
signed to do in heavy seas.
In the Northwest, rising tempera

roofs. Boise had more than a foot of
snow Monday but was down to just 4
inches Tuesday morning.
Most of the weather-related

and heart attacks while shoveling
snow. The Midwest storm was
blamed for 11 deaths in Minnesota,
seven in Iowa, four in Wisconsin,
two in Michigan and one each in In
diana and Illinois.
