RED BANK, N,J. (AP) — Surro
gate mother Mary Beth Whitehead,
stripped of the right to see her
daughter again, vowed Thursday to
continue her legal battle for the
child, saying she’ll never stop loving
the little girl known as Baby M.
“Until Sara comes home, my fight
will continue,” Mrs. Whitehead said
haltingly, with tears in her eyes. “We
will not accept the decision of one
judge as the final determination of a
whole society that we should be per
manently separated.”
“We love each other very much,”
she said in her first public statement
since Tuesday, when Judge Harvey
R. Sorkow issued the nation’s first
ruling upholding a disputed surro
gate parenting contract.

“I believe that there is something
so wrong and so harmfully unnatu
ral about the surrogate practice that
our New Jersey appellate courts will
return Sara to me,” she said, adding
that she will keep the child’s crib set
up.
Mrs. Whitehead named the year-
old child “Sara,” but since Tuesday’s
historic ruling the baby has been Me
lissa Elizabeth Stern in the eyes of
the law. The biological father, Wil
liam Stern, won custody and Sor
kow, minutes after reading his 121-
page decision, allowed Stern’s wife,
Elizabeth, to adopt the child.
The case, which brought world
wide attention to surrogate parent
ing, was sparked by Mrs. White
head’s refusal to honor the $10,000
contract under which she was artifi
cially inseminated with Stern’s
sperm.
The 29-year-old housewife re
fused to give the baby to the Sterns
and, with police officers at her Brick
Township home, handed the baby
out a window to her husband. After
hiding for 87 days in Florida, she
was found by law officers and the
baby went to the Stern’s temporary
custody. The three-month trial en
sued.
“There will never be a termi
nation of the love I have for Sara,”
Mrs. Whitehead said, her husband
Richard at her side. “Nor will there
ever be a termination to the need
Sara has for her real mother.”
Mrs. Whitehead’s attorney, Har
old J. Cassidy, said the appeal, prob
ably to the New Jersey Supreme
Court, will cite at least 15 grounds
for reversal. He said another law
firm and two law professors have
joined Mrs. Whitehead’s case.
Cassidy said he first must block
Sorkow’s ruling and halt the adop
tion, the change of name and the
termination of Mrs. Whitehead’s pa
rental and visitation rights to the
baby. A hearing was set for Friday.
Cassidy said the appeal wall con
tend that surrogate motherhood is
“indecent and the worst form of ex
ploitation of one human being for
the gratification of another.”
Sorkow’s ruling said surrogate
parenting does not exploit women,
and that adoption has a stronger po
tential for abuse because of the risk
of pressure to give up the child.
The judge said the practice is not
immoral, and does not amount to
baby selling because the father can
not buy “what is already his.”
Sorkow said Mrs. Whitehead

for” when she entered the February

Pope, stone police escorts
SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — Slum
dwellers thronged to welcome Pope
John Paul II on Thursday but
stoned the police who escorted him.
Some shared his podium to accuse
Chile’s military regime of torture,
murder and causing their poverty.
Before setting out for La Bandera
shantytown, John Paul spent nearly
45 minutes with President Augusto
Pinochet, who the pontiff has said
runs a “dictatorial” government. Va
tican sources described the meeting
as courteous but would not reveal
details.
Protesters smashed all the win
dows of two police buses that led the
pope on a crisp, brilliant autumn
morning to the squalid slum whose
90,000 people are plagued by drug
addiction, prostitution and grinding
poverty.
Helmeted riot police used their
shields to push the crowds back. Wit
nesses reported seeing several peo
ple who appeared to be injured.
The scene was repeated when
John Paul left and police fired tear
gas into the stone-throwing crowds.
For reasons that were not clear,
the local church erected a backdrop
on the makeshift stage that depicted
wooden shacks but hid the real ones.
People chosen by Roman Catholic
priests were brought to the pope’s
side and spoke out against Gen. Pi
nochet’s government to a crowd of
several hundred thousand.
University radio and television
stations carried the denunciations,
but government television cut the
sound during that portion of John
Paul’s appearance and substituted
background music.
The pontiff nodded solemnly as
Luisa Riveros, who is missing several
front teeth, complained of “no
money, terrible housing and having
to get up at 5 in the morning to get a
place in line at the (government)
health clinic.”
“We want a dignified life, but
without dictatorship,” she said, and
asked papal intercession for political
prisoners, “including 14 facing the
death penalty.”
John Paul embraced her.
Others spoke of torture, burning
and killing by the government. Peo
ple in the audience, some waving
banners that said “Pope, they torture
and kill here,” shouted “Bravo!
with each denunciation.
“1 have listened to you with much
attention, and my spirit is deeply
moved,” the pope said. He urged the
faithful to “use all means within your
power to banish from your country
all the causes of unjust poverty."
He cautioned them, however, to
“avoid the temptation to identify
yourselves with political parlies or
positions” and said the church must
“always maintain a clear ecclesiastical
identity.”
The pope’s audiences in the slum
and at La Moneda presidential pal
ace were a study in extremes. Pino
chet supporters gathered outside the
palace and applauded while military
cadets stood at attention.

Rescuers find 53 miners unhurt,
1 dead after fire in copper mine
MURDOCHVILLE, Quebec (AP)
— Fire and smoke trapped 54 men
overnight in a copper mine directly
under this one-industry town and
one miner died, officials said Thurs
day. Most took shelter in a lunch
room 2,600 feet down.
Some rescued miners said they
thought the cry of “Fire!” at the shift
change Wednesday evening was an
April Fool prank, but then smoke
from nearly 2,000 yards of burning
conveyor belt began rolling through
a 74-mile skein of tunnels in the
Gaspe Mine.
A miner who survived previous
accidents was felled by smoke that
filled the truck he was driving down
a shaft ramp. He died before he
could reach one of the underground
lunchrooms that are hollowed out of
rock and double as emergency shel
ters.
Eleven men were brought up into
the cold, gray drizzle by early Thurs
day afternoon and greeted by fellow
residents who gathered at the mine
gates.
Several hours later, rescuers were
waiting for the smoke to clear before
trying to reach the remaining 42.
Officials said the miners were safe
in several of the lunchrooms, which
have water, ventilation and radio
telephones.
“It’s great news,” a spokeswoman
for the mine company Noranda Inc.
said when rescuers located the last
13 missing men, safely sealed inside
lunchrooms at different levels of the
smoke-filled mine, which is capable
of producing 72,600 metric tons of
copper per year.
Ange-Marie Kenney, a 36-year-
old driller with two children, was the
man who died.
His brother Jean-Paul was with
him but had the luck to be near a
hose pumping compressed air into
the shaft. He was taken to a hospital
suffering from smoke inhalation.
Officials said there was no indica
tion of what caused the fire, which
began near a conveyor belt at 7 p.m.
Wednesday during a shift change. A
resident of Murdochville reported
hearing an explosion, but officials
said a short circuit was more likely.
