Ilian’s classmates planned a 6th May party for him at their ele- itary school in Cardenas as ans on both sides of the Florida its increasingly embraced him as [town political poster child, 'resident Castro over the week- demanded the United States turn Elian to his father by might, and warned the Cuban tople were losing patience. §Vorkers set up bleachers outside U.S. Interests Section yesterday, arently preparing for another protest outside the American mis sion. Waving Cuban flags and chant ing political slogans, 500 members of the Communist Youth held the first protest there Sunday night. In Washington, White House spokesperson Joe Lockhart called on Cuban officials to guarantee the safety of Americans on the island. “Elian’s father and his grandparents’ right to demand his immediate return ... is not negotiable.” — Ricardo Alarcon National Assembly President “We take the safety of Ameri can personnel very seriously and take quite a dim view of any threat,” Lockhart said. “We ex pect the Cubans to ... deal in a re sponsible way with American cit izens there.” National Assembly President Ricardo Alarcon appealed in a let ter to governments throughout the world for their support in bringing Elian home. “Once again, the United States government has violated the basic principles of law and respect for human dignity thus insulting the child’s father, a modest Cuban worker, and his grandparents,” Alarcon wrote. “Elian’s father and his grandparents’ right to demand his immediate return to the home and family from which he was ille gally snatched is not negotiable.” Castro accused the U.S. govern ment of kidnapping Elian, who was found Nov. 25 clinging to an inner tube off the coast of Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Elian’s mother and stepfather were among those who died when an overloaded powerboat sank Thanksgiving week during the 90- mile crossing to Florida in what American authorities said was a case of illegal alien smuggling.

Rubin said the continuing expansion under Prime Minister Ehud Barak is “a complicating factor” that could harm the atmosphere for negotiations by tend ing to prejudge the outcome of the talks. To Palestinian leaders, Rubin said: “We do not think the Palestinian side should impose preconditions on specific issues.” En route from Washington, Albright received two telephone reports from Dennis Ross, the veteran American mediator who failed to break the deadlock in meetings with Israeli and Palestinian leaders. Sent to the region by President Clinton to try to nar row differences before a mid-February deadline for the outline of an overall accord, Albright had hoped to fo cus on the half-dozen thorny issues on the table.
