Researcher: Sex expert|
‘irresponsible’ for claim
LONDON (AP) — The World
Health Organization’s chief AIDS
investigator said Tuesday that sex
experts William Masters and Vir
ginia Johnson were “irresponsible”
for suggesting AIDS can be trans
mitted by casual social contact.
Dr. Jonathan Mann, the Ameri
can director of WHO’s Global Pro
gram on AIDS, challenged the noted
sex researchers to piocluce scientific
evidence or admit they were indulg
ing in “idle speculation.”
“If it’s just theorizing, then I think
they have done us all a grave disser
vice,” Mann told reporters at the
First International Conference on
the Global Impact of AIDS.
About 1,100 specialists from 20
countries attended the start of the
three-day meeting at London’s Bar
bican Center.
In a new book, Masters and John
son claim U.S. health officials have
understated the extent of AIDS
among heterosexuals to avoid public
panic. They also say that AIDS
might be transmitted by casual con
tact such as from a toilet seat or a
waiter’s bleeding finger.
same question, said “I’m not sure we
chose the word ‘rampant’ ourselves."
Mann suggested the authors’ as
sertion that AIDS might be more
E revalent among heterosexuals than
ealth officials believe was a matter
for debate and might be useful if it
strengthened awareness that the dis
ease can be transmitted both hetero-
sexually and homosexually.
“But if they’re talking about put
ting their prestige behind the idea
that you can catch this from a toilet
seat, I think that’s irresponsible un
less there are data,” Mann said.
Mann said he strongly objected to
the authors’ implication “without
data, without information, that the
virus spreads in other ways than we
know it spreads.”
They wrote in their book: “The
AIDS virus is now running rampant
in the heterosexual community.”
When that assertion came under lire
at a news conference in New York
on Monday, Masters said, “I simply
believe this.” Johnson, asked the
Mann and most other experts be
lieve AIDS spreads mainly by sexual
contact, through the sharing of nee
dles and from pregnant mothers to
their babies.
The WHO official suggested that
Masters and Johnson were trying to
promote their book with headline-
grabbing findings, saying “publicity
about this will undoubtedly sell more
books.”
He also expressed doubt about
the authors’ scientific qualifications
regarding AIDS.
“They know a lot about sex. I
Arabs put corpse
of murdered man
by mother’s door
MAZRAA SH ARQIYA. Occu
pied West Bank (AP) — Arabs
stabbed a man accused of aiding Is
rael and dumped the corpse at his
mother’s door, and Israeli gunfire
killed another Palestinian on Tues
day, hospitals and witnesses re
ported.
Hundreds of Arab women held
street protests in the occupied terri
tories on a “Women’s Day” called by
the Palestine Liberation Organiza
tion.
Hospital officials in Nablus said
three Arab protesters were wounded
by Israeli gunfire, but the army said
a Jewish settler shot one of them af
ter the settler’s car was stoned in the
Balata refugee camp.
Residents of Mazraa Sharqiya said
a settler shot Khader Mohammed
Hamideh, a 42-year-old business
man with seven children, outside his
home. The army confirmed Hami-
deh’s death but said it was investigat
ing the circumstances.
According to U.N. figures, at least
83 Palestinians have been killed by
Israelis since Arab riots began Dec. 8
in the West Bank and Gaza Strip,
which Israel captured from Jordan
and Egypt in the 1967 Middle East
war.
Meanwhile, four army officers
were sentenced to 35 days in jail
each for not being armed when
three guerrillas commandeered
their car before hijacking a bus Mon
day, the military command said.
The officers were on their way to
army sporting event in track suits
and fled when the guerrillas opened
fire, the army said.
Three Israeli hostages and the
guerrillas were killed during the hi
jacking and later storming of the
bus. The PLO claimed responsibility
for the hijacking.
Farah’s body was found Monday
night with the arms and legs bound
and the mouth gagged, the army
said. Hospital officials in Jericho said
he was killed by three stab wounds in
the chest and stomach.
FAA will inspect
commuter flights
more frequently
WASHINGTON (AP) — Com
muter airlines which carried nearly
30 million people last year are being
targeted for stepped-up inspections
by the Federal Aviation Administra
tion after having fatal accidents and
56 deaths since November.
The agency announced the spe
cial inspections of the commuters,
which normally fly aircraft of 30 or
fewer seats, at a news conference
Tuesday. It said about 20 percent of
the 173 commuter carriers are ex
pected to be singled out for partic-
uarly close scrutiny.

people Nov. 23 near Homer, Alaska,
while the latest was the crash of an
Avair commuter during a takeoff
Feb. 19 near Morrisville, N.C. that
killed 12 people. Between these two
accidents there have been fatal com
muter crashes in Nebraska, Alaska,
Hawaii, Illinois and Colorado.
McArtor cited the rapid growth of
the commuter industry and said
measures must be taken to more clo

FAA Administrator Allan McAr
tor told the news conference that the
agency is concerned because of the
rash of commuter accidents in late
1987 and early this year, after the in
dustry had its safest year in 1986.
The “top-to-bottom” inspections,
which are to begin within 60 days,
are to focus on the airlines’ manage
ment practices, flight crew training,
record keeping and maintenance of
aircraft. He said FAA officials al
ready are reviewing information
about the accidents to pinpoint pos
sible problem areas.
The seven accidents over a four-
month period so far appear to have
nothing in common in terms of
cause, McArtor said.
