Croats bar U.N. from massacre site
The Associated Press
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herze-
govina — Bosnian Croats ac
cused of massacring Muslims
north of Sarajevo prevented U.N.
peacekeepers from reaching the
area Monday to investigate.
Government-run Bosnian ra
dio accused Croat forces of killing
about 80 villagers in Stupni Do on
Saturday and taking about 120
others by truck toward nearby
Vares, a Croat-controlled town.
A Bosnian Croat radio service
denied any killings or detentions.
Lt. Col. Bill Aikman,
spokesman for the U.N. troops,
said peacekeepers got close
enough to Stupni Do during the
weekend to confirm that it had
been burned. But they could not
determine what happened to the
villagers.
The peacekeepers were fired
on when they tried to get
through a roadblock Sunday.
Another U.N. peacekeeping unit
was shot at in Vares. There were
no casualties in either incident.
Aikman said Croat forces con
tinued to block a team of
Swedes, Norwegians and Danes
Monday from reaching the vil
lage, 20 miles north of Sarajevo.
Aikman said U.N. troops in
Vares watched a school where
Muslim civilians were said to
have been taken, but then pulled
back after Croats moved up
heavy machine-guns and
grenade launchers. The U.N.
troops remained in the area, he
said.
A Danish U.N. aid worker
was killed and 12 other peace
keepers and aid workers were
wounded Monday when U.N.
convoys came under fire at a
front line between Bosnian gov
ernment and Croat forces in cen
tral Bosnia.
The aid convoy was returning
empty from the town of Zenica
to U.N. warehouses in the Croat
ian town of Metkovic when it
and a separate convoy of U.N.
troops came under mortar and
small-arms fire near Travnik.
Bishops describe moral responsibility of U.S.
The Associated Press
The United States should keep its ban on
nuclear testing, stop peddling its arms
around the world, and turn its swords into
plowshares in Central America, Africa and
the Middle East, Roman Catholic leaders say.
The proposal calling for the United States
to combat a groundswell of isolationism comes
a decade after the bishops' pastoral letter on
nuclear arms propelled them into U.S. public
policy debates at the height of the Cold War.
The new statement, “The Harvest of jus
tice is Sown in Peace," says the United States
retains a moral responsibility to intervene in
regional conflicts and to increase humanitari
an aid to countries where it once battled
communism.
'“Liberty and justice for all' is not only a
profound national pledge; it is also a worthy
goal for a world leader," the bishops said.
The statement was written by some of the
nation's most influential bishops, including
Cardinals Joseph Bernardin of Chicago and

Rankin said the exam provides
a common evaluation system for
applicants wanting a medical li
cense.
But many times, the exams
themselves are criticized for being
unfair.
Certain questions on the Pro
fessional and Administrative Ca
reer Examination, created in 1974
to test applicants of more than 100
federal jobs, for example, were
found to discriminate against
African-Americans and Hispanics.
A 1978 study determined that
while 42 percent of the white pop
ulation scored 70 or better on the
test, only 5 percent of the black
population and 13 percent of the
Hispanic population scored as
high.
The test was abolished in 1981.
Likewise, Sulak said there are
debates that the Engineering in
Training Exam is skewed towards
one field of engineering.
"There is obviously going to be
flaws in the system," he said.

he said.
Sulak said obtaining a license is
something students should know
about before they graduate from
college.
Wood said, however, students
should also understand market
approaches to solving regulation
problems.
"Market solutions provide ap
propriate remedies," he said.
While some regulation of occu
pations is necessary for public
protection, licensing itself is un
necessary, he said.
"That can be done perfectly
well through the law and through
the court system," he said.
