Khadafy hostile toward ‘imperialism’
(continued from page 1)
international theory” — a merger of Islamic fun
damentalism and socialist principles with respect
for private property.
The bible of Khadafy’s philosophy is his
“Green Book,” a collection of his political ideas.
The book is required reading in Libyan schools,
and newscasts on Libyan Radio begin with recita
tions of passages, read in sonorous tones remi
niscent of Koranic recitations. t
Khadafy calls his theory “an alternative to cap
italist materialism and communist atheism,” and
with the Green Book as his guide, he set about to
reorganize Libyan politics along lines unique in
the Arab world.
Under Khadafy’s leadership, the country’s na
tional assembly, or the General Peoples’ Con
gress, in 1977 abolished most state institutions
and changed the official name of the country to
conform to Khadafy doctrine.
The cabinet was replaced by a General Peo
ples’ Committee, with members designated as
secretaries in charge of what had been ministries.
Peoples’ committees were established throughout
the country, supposedly to enable the public to
take a greater role in the running of the country.
Establishment of the committees also allowed
Khadafy to dismiss local officials opposed to his
ideas. In line with the doctrine of “popular con
trol,” Khadafy urged Libyans outside the country
to take over the country’s embassies and replace
them with “peoples’ bureaus.”
Khadafy’s efforts to export his ideas through
out the Arab world have been less successful. His
call for 40,000 Libyans to march into Egypt to de
mand union in 1973 ended with Egyptian troops
turning back the marchers 200 miles west of
Cairo.
The two neighboring countries fought a brief
border war in 1977 which ended after Egyptian
troops overran an oasis a few miles inside Libya.
Libyan-backed factions in Lebanon and the
PLO have failed to win broad support. The Su
danese military government which overthrew Ni-
meiri last April has made overtures to Libya, but
pro-Libyan political groups within the country
are believed to have little popular following and
have split over internal disputes.

or you don’t know the cause of
death,” Hensarling said.
Friends who knew Holmans
said he was suffering from de
pression caused by failing classes
and other personal problems,
Walling said.
He said Holmans, who was
conscious and talking before be
ing operated on, told police, a
doctor, and other witnesses the
wound made by seven-inch dag
ger was self-inflicted.
“What we’re doing is investi
gating all the other angles just to
make sure that there’s not some
loose string somewhere,” Walling
said.
He said that the student’s fa
ther does not know enough about
the current police investigation
into Holmans’ death.
Holmans told witnesses he did
it because he felt he was going to
have a heart attack or stroke,
Walling said.
“He told the police officer that
he waited about an hour and a
half before calling anyone,” Wal
ling said.
He said that although all evi
dence points to suicide, the inves
tigation will continue.
“The father has never con
tacted us to my knowledge,” Wal
ling said. “I don’t see how he can
have any doubts about an investi
gation that he doesn’t know any
thing about.”
Dr. David Beesinger, who op
erated on Holmans, said he as
sumed an autopsy had been or
dered.
Beesinger said that he would
have liked an autopsy done be
cause of the unusual injury. He
said it is difficult for an individual
to put a knife through his own
breastbone.
Honduras gets aid from U.S.
(continued from page 1)
military forces “they will go no
where near the location of the inva
sion.
The president’s action came as the
Senate prepared to consider his re
quest, already rejected by the House,
for $100 million in aid to the Con
tras opposing the Nicaraguan gov
ernment.
Speakes said that on Monday
night, Honduran President Jose Az-
cona Hoyo “requested urgent U.S.
military assistance to include assis
tance in airlifting Honduran troops
as necessary.”
Reagan notified key members of
Congress of his decision early Tues
day morning and signed the formal
transfer of funds shortly before
noon, his spokesman said.
Speakes said the action, which
shifts Pentagon funds into a foreign
assistance account, is not subject to
approval or disapproval by Con
gress.
At the State Department, deputy
spokesman Charles Redman said
Gen. John Galvin, commander in
chief of the U.S. Southern Com
mand, has been dispatched to Hon
duras to assess the situation and pro
vide intelligence and advice to the
Honduran government.
The military materiel that has
been requested includes air defense
weapons, conventional ordnance,
spare parts and armament for heli
copters and essential training, Red
man said.
He said both Nicaraguan rebel
and Honduran intelligence sources
indicate that reinforcing attacks by
up to four Sandinista batallions were
expected within the next 24 hours.
Hill, Speaker of the House
Thomas P. O’Neill Jr., D-Mass.,
called the Nicaraguan action “an ag
gression by a nation into another na
tion.”
He said the action was “a tremen
dous blunder” on the part of Nicara
guan President Daniel Ortega.
The Nicaraguan Embassy in
Washington said it “categorically re
jects as a total fabrication” the re
ports of an incursion by Nicaraguan
forces into Honduran territory.

Administrator replies to suil
(continued from page 1)
U.S. forces destroy two Libyan patrol boats
(continued from page 1)
ing. Speakes said there was a possi
bility the boat managed to slip away.
• State Department spokesman
Michael Austrian said that perhaps
“a couple hundred” Americans re
main in Libya following a U.S. order
to leave by Feb. 1 and, “We hold Li
bya responsible for their safety.”
• In Moscow, a Foreign Ministry
spokesman said the Soviet Union
“resolutely condemns” the U.S. ac
tion in the gulf. But reaction in Con
gress remained generally favorable.
Efforts by the Pentagon and the
White House to describe what was
happening off Libya’s coast on Tues
day initially produced only confu
sion. In disclosing the new attacks on
Libyan boats and a missile battery at
the coatal city of Sirte, the Pentagon
issued a statement saying up to 12
missiles had been fired at U.S.
planes and that some of the additio
nal missile launches had occurred
Tuesday.
Several hours later, however, both
the White House and Pentagon re
leased an updated chronology of the
military engagements and con
firmed that Libya had not fired any
missiles at U.S. planes since 1:14
p.m. EST Monday, or 7:14 p.m. in
the Mediterranean. Only six missiles
can be absolutely confirmed as hav
ing been fired but there were proba
bly more, Sims said.
In addition, the petition to sue
also requests that System attorneys
not be allowed to represent Wasson.
The suit said that “to allow System
attorneys to represent Wasson
would constitute a further waste of
the taxpayers’ money."
KLS’ suit also asks that the attor
ney general not represent Wasson
but instead represent the local retail
ers. The suit said an overriding pub
lic interest deserved the attorney
general’s support over his usual obli
gation to the state.
For the time Iteing, Wasson I
hired a private attorney, Kelvin 1
a ms of Bryan. However, ”
Rucker, assistant attorney
and Jerry Gain, .tssrxiate
counsel for the System, ill
their names on Wasson's answer
Sources contacted by The I
ion said Rucker and Cain pti
included their names as a
niifneuver designed to throw I
support behind Wasson.
Essentially if the attorney general
agreed to KLS’ request he would be
throwing his support behind the re
tailers. In cases against the state the
attorney general usually represents
the state.
April
KLS attorney Hawtrey saidW
scheduled depositions for Fi
and a formal hearing for /
But Rucker said Hawtrey iMy
have followed procedure in frlinj
requests for the deposition. Ri
added that he had not been nr
of the hearing.
