ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) — The head of Pakistan’s military regime announced yesterday a uni lateral reduction of troops on the In dian border, the establishment of a ruling council and an eventual re turn to civilian rule. In a speech to the nation, Gen. Pervaiz Musharraf announced the formation of a six-member National Security Council of army officers and experts in legal, foreign and na tional affairs to govern the country. The council would be assisted by “a think tank of experts.” The speech was Musharraf’s first public appearance since he went on national television to announce the ouster of the civilian government last Tuesday. “This is not martial law,” Musharraf said, but rather “another path toward democracy. ” The constitution was not scrapped — only temporarily sus pended, he said. He gave no indication when civilian rule would be restored but said “the armed forces have no in tention to stay in charge longer than necessary.” "77i/s is not martial law, [but rather] an other path towards democracy. ff — Gen.

Octob» BY irried German awarded Peace Prize FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — Fritz Stern, a Columbia University historian who fled with his family from the Nazis and has written about the his tory of Germany’s Jews, was awarded the prestigious Peace Prize at the Frankfurt Interna tional Book Fair yesterday. In his acceptance speech at St. Paul’s Church, Stern called on Germans not to forget their past, but said the world should not blame children for their par ents’ mistakes. “Germans are rightly ad monished not to forget, but such voices do not place guilt at the door of today’s generation," he said. “They demand respon sibility, reinforced by a knowl edge of the mistakes and crimes of the past.” Last year’s winner of the Peace Prize, Martin Walser, ig nited a wide debate in Germany by saying in his acceptance speech references to the Auschwitz death camp were being used to pummel Ger mans with guilt about the past. His comments were strong ly criticized by Ignatz Bubis, head of Germany’s Jewish com munity, who died in August. Yesterday, Stern did not di rectly mention Walser’s name. But he did say that “it is inevitable that Auschwitz will forever re main a place of German inhu manity and unimaginable evil.” Born in Breslau, present-day Wroclaw, Poland, the 73-year- old Stern fled to the United States at age 12 and became a U.S. citizen in 1947. His books include Gold and Iron, which examines the rela tionship between Bismarck and his Jewish banker Gerson Be- lichroeder, and The Politics of Cultural Despair, first published in 1961. Stern also served as senior adviser in 1993-94 to the then- U.S. ambassador to Germany, Richard Holbrooke, who is now the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
