BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — With the
United States pressing for support for
a possible military strike, Russia,
France and Islamic leaders were
rushing envoys to Iraq on Monday to
push for a peaceful end to the stand
off over U.N. weapons inspections.
A Russian envoy spoke with
President Saddam Hussein in
Baghdad, leading the way among
Iraq’s sympathizers in pushing for a
diplomatic solution. France,
TUrkey, the Arab League, Iordan and
Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat all
launched their own peace missions
and appeals to Saddam.
Envoys from Russia, France and
Turkey would stress the same mes
sage, France’s Foreign Ministry said:
The danger would end only if Iraq
gave in to U.N. demands for full ac
cess to all suspected weapons sites.
At the United Nations, Secretary-
General Kofi Annan asked the Securi
ty Council to double the amount of oil
Iraq can sell under an exemption to a
U.N. embargo. The United States and
Britain, Iraq’s leading adversaries on
the council, indicated they could go
along with the increase for humani
tarian reasons. The step could ease
tensions in the crisis.
For its part, Iraq insisted it was
open to anything that would help
avert attack.
“Iraq will not neglect any oppor
tunity that will help it foil American
schemes to direct a military strike
against it,” Foreign Minister Mo-

Holbert said that Bother’s re
ceived the textbook request for the
spring semester from professors in
late October. However, he said the
professors may teach different
courses or decide to use more cur
rent decisions.
Lorimor said that the Texas Aggie
Bookstore considers professors’ re
quests, the class enrollment and the
book condition when buying books
back at the end of the semester.
“As a bookstore, we look at sell
ing about 10 percent of class en
rollment,” Lorimor said. “We don’t
care what bookstores the books
came from. We give more money
for hardback books. If books are
not going to be used again, then
we try to give students the whole
sale value of the book.”
Lorimor said the bookstore
loses money on books returned
for wholesale price because the
store must pay to mail books back
to the companies.
Holbert said that returning stu
dents should try to reserve books
at the end of the semester for the
next semester. Holbert said that re
serving books can cut students’
textbook bills because the used
textbooks are pulled first for re
serve orders.
The MSG Bookstore had sever
al hundred students reserve books
for the spring semester, Black said.
He said that more freshman tend
to reserve books at the MSG Book
store for the fall during their sum
mer conferences.

Iraq repeat

American threats to attack.
The inspectors are trying to de

its chemical and biological

House Speaker Newt Gingrich an
invitation to send a congressional
delegation to one of Saddam’s off-

“We want to allow them to make

Castro thanks Cubat
for help in pope’s vis
HAVANA (AP) — President Fi
del Castro thanked the Cuban
people in a live television address
on Monday, saying they had
helped make Pope John Paul II’s
historic visit a success.
Castro said Cuba’s open recep
tion of the pontiff’s First-ever mis
sion to the communist island na
tion disproved criticism of “this
country as an oppressed, en
slaved country.”
He wore his customary green
army fatigues for what was his
first speech since John Paul left
Cuba on Jan. 25, shucking the suit
he had worn for the pope.
Castro expressed “my admira
tion ... my gratitude to the people
for its behavior and for the suc
cess achieved in the task.”
He made no immediate
mention of some of the pope’s
blunt political messages during
the five-day visit, including
calls for release of its “prisoners
of conscience.”
The speech started at 9:30 p.m.
and was still going on 1 1 /2 hours
later. It was unclear how long Cas-

Mark Crawford, a student Epis
copal chaplain, said he is against the
death penalty in most cases be
cause he regards the beginning and
end of life as sacred.
“Many Christians are divided on
the issue,” he said. “The fact that she
is a woman seems to be an issue,
but is capital punishment humane
for a man or a woman?”
Cavell said gender is not an issue
in administering the death penalty.
“People may be more sympa
thetic to her because she is a
woman, and she goes against the
stereotype,” he said. “But you have
to trust the jurors who made the de
cision that her crime justified the
death penalty.”
Crawford said life and life with
out parole sentences are more hu
mane because the state should not
determine who should be executed,
