WASHINGTON (AP) — President
Clinton hopes his quick trip to Oslo,
Norway, could begin a final push toward
earning a place in history as an hon
ored peacemaker.
Clinton has picked an agreement be
tween Israel and the Arabs as his top for
eign-policy priority. It also could be his
best chance for a shining legacy.
Israel and the Palestinians have giv
en themselves until September to con
clude an overall settlement.

vantage over ot
INCHON, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s
deadliest fire in a quarter-century was a disaster
waiting to happen, a weekend crowd of teen-agers
partying in an unlicensed beer bar so crowded
waitresses could hardly move around the tables.
The only exit from the dimly lit bar was a stair
way barely 1 yard wide. There were no fire alarms
and no sprinklers in the nightspot in Inchon, a port
city 30 miles west of Seoul.
With 55 people dead after Saturday night’s fire,
police sought arrest warrants yesterday for five peo
ple: four electricians they said ignored safety pro
cedures and a teen-ager accused of inadvertently
starting the fire while working on a new karaoke
club in the basement of the three-story building.
The five face charges of involuntary manslaughter.
Doctors feared the number of dead could
rise, as some of the 74 people injured were in
critical condition.
One survivor said workers in the Live II Hof
told the teen-aged partygoers not to worry when
flames and smoke climbed up the only exitway
and began seeping through the door.
“It’s nothing serious,” 17-year-old Suh Min-jong
said a worker told them.
“Then somebody shouted, ‘Fire!’ And people
rushed for the exit, but there already was smoke
and fire there, so they aished towards the kitchei
in a stampede,” Kim Soo-kyong, 18, who waiter
tables at the bar, said.
“Somebody shouted, ‘Fire!’And
people rushed for the exit, but

fire there.”

“They yelled for help and stumbled over each
other. I felt feet on my back. The lights were out.
I felt a hot wind in my face, and I passed out.
When I woke up, I was in hospital," Kim, who is
recovering from smoke inhalation and light burns
on her hands and back said.
President Kim Dae-jung has ordered his gov
ernment to step up safety inspections. He issued
a similar order four months ago when 19 kinder-
gartners and four adults were killed in a fire at a
seaside summer camp in western South Korea.
