PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti - Gunmen
reportedly grabbed a legislative ally of
Jean-Bertrand Aristide, sending another
chilling message Thursday to supporters of
the U.N. effort to bring the exiled president
back to power.
Samuel Milord, a National Assembly
deputy whose family said he was dragged
from a house late Wednesday, had only re
cently come out of hiding since denouncing
leaders of the bloody coup that ousted Aris
tide two years ago.
His seizure followed the assassinations
of pro-Aristide businessman Antoine
Izmery on Sept. 11 and Justice Minister Guy
Malary a week ago.
Malary was part of the interim govern
ment appointed by Aristide, Haiti's first
freely elected president, under a U.N. plan
for restoring democracy.
Although the army commander Raoul
Cedras signed the plan in July, increasing
violence and threats by army-backed civil
ian gangs have derailed the timetable for
implementing the plan and rebuilding this
impoverished nation.
A U.N. embargo on fuel and weapons
shipments was reimposed Tuesday to pres
sure Haiti's military leaders to live up to
the accord for returning Aristide to office
Oct. 30.
Lines of cars formed at gas stations in
the capital and along the highway to
Leogane, 25 miles to the southwest.
Prime Minister Robert Malval's govern
ment said he had received a statement from
fuel distributors saying they would respect
the U.N. sanctions.
The office did not say whether the state
ment was signed by all three international
companies that distribute fuel: Esso, Texaco
and Shell.
Executives could not be contacted imme
diately for comment, and it was unclear
whether they would defy any order from
the army to release fuel.
Parliament has been trying to draft laws
to implement provisions of the U.N.
democracy plan. Many soldiers and right
ists oppose the plan's requirement for the
army to give up control of the police and
for Cedras to step down.
Two weeks ago. Milord told The Associ
ated Press he was on a "death list" circulat
ed among army-allied civilian gangs.
Family members told local radio that
gunmen burst into a home in whichh
staying in the capital's Debussy sect
took him away.
Shots were reported in the neighbti
Wednesday night.
An official with Milord's pro-Ar;
coalition, the National Front forth
and Democracy, confirmed the info:
tions. The government was checkinc
the report.
Milord, a civil engineer, was one
first lawmakers to publicly denoune
Sept. 30, 1991, coup, and refusedtc
part in parliament sessions in whidi
makers were forced at gunpoint tofle:
the presidency vacant.
He went into hiding after the coup
just recently emerged in public. Ho®

backed gangs in his native Desdune

Young German hooligans
visit Israel for reformatioi
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Twenty young Germans who enjoysti-
brawls and attacks on foreigners have been sent by their hometc
on a tour of Israel in an effort to reform them.
While they see themselves as right-wing hooligans, some te
see them as neo-Nazis.
Rene Flaemig, a 20-year-old roofer from Dresden, said so fai
trip hasn't changed his views. Flaemig resents foreigners in
hometown, calling them "parasites."
He's never hated Jews, he said, mainly because there aren’t!
in Dresden. And he's never denied the Holocaust, in which',
Germans murdered 6 million Jews.
Flaemig said he was disappointed by the group's visit Wee
day to the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial in Jerusalem.
"We've seen all those pictures before. They are in all the his:
books in school," said Flaemig during a visit to the Western Wei
Flaemig and his friend, Olaf Rentzsch, a 21-year-old unemplc
toolmaker, eagerly placed paper skullcaps on their headsasi;
passed through the gate to the Wail and asked two reporters tot
pictures. Skullcaps are worn by observant Jews and required at::
Wall, Judaism's holiest shrine.

There was little joy in the con
ference room Thursday as the ne
gotiators, most of whom were
pro-collider, hammered out what
amounted to funeral plans.
"I think that out of what is a ter
rible situation for Texas, the SSC
and for science, we did the very
best we could today," said the only
Texas negotiator. Rep. Jim Chap
man, D-Sulphur Springs.
Defenders of the Energy De
partment program, which has been
buffeted in recent months by alle
gations of cost overruns and man
agement ineptitude, denounced
the congressional action as scientif
ic folly and shortsightedness.
But opponents, who sat in on
the negotiating session, proclaimed
victory and a permanent death for
the collider.
"The super collider's dead, the
taxpayers have saved $10 billion
and I think that's good news for
the American public," said Rep.
Jim Slattery, the Kansas Democrat
who orchestrated the anti-collider
House campaign.
Added Rep. Sherwood
Boehlert, R-N.Y.: "It shows that
we're paying attention. The last
election was about change."
The two took issue with back
ers' claims that shutdown costs
could hit more than $1 billion.
