New road a threat to South
A NEW road link between Na,mibia, Botswana and the Tr~vaal could sound the-ileath knell for an ailing southern economy, claim businesspeople and hoteliers. But leading Namibianeconomists say a trans-Kalahari highway would be a big boost to the rest of the economy.
Businesspeople in southern Namibia claim that bulk trans- . port between Namibia and South Africa is their main source of income. As there is currently no ",t1'. ~r main road between South Africa and Namibia, all transport goes through southern towns.
A senior official in the Ministry of Works, Transport and Communications estimates that about 160 vehicles a day will be diverted from the current Windhoek - Johannesburg route. The new road will cut more than 400 kilometres off the distance between the two cities.
"We've done a feasibility study and it is economically feasible to build the road, ' , the official said. Southern businesses argue they will be left virtually without income as the

UN under fire over SA's 'dirty tricks'
Is democracy safe with DTA in NA? PRIME Minister Hage Geingob on Friday lashed out at the United Nations for having "shamefully" failed to recognise that South Mrica was covertly funding
. political parties opposed to Swapo, and thereby subverting Namibia's 1989 elections.
Geingob called a media conference to react to disclosures by South African Foreign Minister Pik Botha on Thursday that the SA Government had funded " about seven" political parties to the tune of well over RI 00 million during the independence elections.
" As we said during the campaign, South Africa was not neutral and Botha is (now) saying 'Yes, we were fighting against Swapo therefore we couldn't be neutral'," Geingob
said. The Prime Minister charged that SA's covert
funding was a violation of a New York agreement between South Africa, Angola and Cuba to oversee the regional peace process .
"The issue is not that the DT A managed to get money from South Africa. When we got our money from the Organisation of African Unity (liberation committee) it was public information, " Geingob pointed out, adding that it had been announced at a press conference that Swapo would get about Rl9 million.

"South Africans will not be here to vote for the DT A. And our people have also seen in these one-and-a-halfyears who is who, ' , Geingob said.
The Prime Minister added that the Government was drafting electoral legislation to ensure that democracy survived in Namibia.
Asked about any planned action on the current issue, Geingob said: " The action we will ~ is to defeat them again" - referring to the regional elections.
"I am very glad this came about at this particular time, ' , Geingob said.
"I don't know why Botha is so unkind to their puppets."
Geingob said that in fact that . the news of the covert funding might have been seen by the public as a serious disClosure,

"In efficiency and transport costs the country will benefit, " he said, suggesting the planned highway could be a toll road and the income could be used to set up income-earning projects in the South.
Leading business figure Harold Pupkewitz said it was natural to use the most economical route, saving large
but ' 'it did not come as a surprisetous".
"What Mr Botha has done is to reveal the facts, as Basson (fonner SADF propagandist Nico Basson) did. ' ,
Geingob added that people and the press would recall that the DTA and the "DTA-controlled newspapers had denied Basson's allegation$ as lies. Bllt in its own twisted logic, the DT A now feels relieved at Mr Botha' s revelations. "
The Prime Minister said it was no secret that Swapo, as a liberation movement, had been sUpported by the OAU's liberation committee nor that it had receive "humanitarian asistance from the Scandinavian countries and from various support groups from the United States and the West" .
'Ibese were irrefutable facts, . "but the culprit in this saga, the chainnan of the DT A, having had his cover blown by · Mr Botha 's revelations, and· Bas-
son's revelations prior to that, has had to resort to' "blatant lies ... truth is not one of the DT A chainnan' s strengths" .
Geingob noted that South Africa and the United Nations were dutybound to respect the impartiality clause of the UN plan.
However, while the UN kept its side of the bargain, "as Mr Botha's· revelations have endorsed, South Africa spared no effort to undermine free and fair elections in Namibia. It left no stone unturned to subvert Swapo 's victory."
The Prime Minister concluded by saying that he would riot be surprisedif"Mr Mudge and his ilk" tried to subvert democracy again in Nanubia ...

'Seals can -be killed -as kindly as possible'
SEAL killing can continue, but the Government should be instructed in the most humane way to do this was one agreement reached at a meeting between the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources and conservation groups.
when obtained should be free for all, and seals may be killed as kindly as passible.
Schlettwein says the ministry is committed to promoting and maintaining the welfare of Namibians by policies aimed at keeping balanced ecosystems and essential ecological processes. It also wants to make sure no species go extinct. Pennanent Secretary Calle Schlettwein was
key to organising last week's talks between seal industry bodies and Namibia Animal Action Group (K Panagis), Earthlife Africa (D Cole), the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (E Hogg) and the Wildlife Society of Namibia (K Roberts) according to a ministry press release.
Prime Minister Hage Geingob, in a February white paper, said the ministry had surveyed the seal population by aeroplane last October. It also supervised research and asked advice on seal quotas.
In the past, seal culling or killing has provoked a strong reaction from animal supporters, including seal testicles dumped on the desk of an official of the Department of Nature Conser-

OAU meeting
PRIME Minister Rage Geingob is leading a Namibian delegation, including Foreign Affairs Minister TheoBen Gurirab, to the Organisation of African Unity ad hoc committee meeting on southern Africa in Abuja, Nigeria, which starts today.
About 15 heads of state, government and liberation movement leaders are to consider developments in the region following decisions on South Africa, Angola and Mozambique, adopted at the OAU summit in June.
The ad hoc committee meeting will be followed by a session of the OAU committee on the nomination of an African candidate for the post of United Nations Secretary-General.
Car kills man POLICE are investigating charges of culpable homicide after a 40-year-old man died in an accident at the weekend. Andreas Hishimbwa was killed by a car as he stepped into Claudius Kandovazu street in Windhoek's Katutura a few minutes after 18hOO last Friday.
OSHAKA TI: ABOUT 100 unemployed former Plan fighters converged on the Oshakati Regional Commissioner's office on Friday morning demanding to be registered again as their names did not appear on the master list for pay-outs.
The ex-combatants said they had registered at the required time. .
Commissioner Silvanus Vatuva told the Namibian Press Agency, N ampa, that the Plan men told him !hey had reported to his office in response to a call announced over the ra.dio on Thursday that they had to report to the nearest Regional Commissioner's office.
Vatuva denied that he was responsible for any such 'radio announcement, as did the Regional Commissioner for Ondangua, Brian Simataa.
Vatuva said that after.the ex-combatants' 'arrival at his office, he contacted Minister of Infonnation and Broadcasting Hidipo Hamutenya in Windhoek.
The Regional Commissioner said that Hamutenya told him that all combatants who had registered during September. October and November last year and whose names did not appear on the master list should be listed again for further consideration,
* Meanwhile in a statement last week the Workers Revolutionary Party called on the Government to stop "any hard-handed handling of the ex-combatants on the pay-out issue",
In an open letter, the WRP said: "We have noted with increasing disapproval how you handled this matter. The Plan fighters have the right to demand payment from this Government. ' ,
The WRP said that as the party concerned Swapo was responsible for keeping a record of the fighters. "Now the responsibility is heaped onto them for providing proof of registration. " _
Hotels to reconsider expulsion of Onduri
HAPPIER times: a Christmas party where space didn't seem to be a problem.
You've got the wrong woman, Kozonguizi
tells the municipality ANGELINE Kozonguizi yesterday hit back at the municipality's argument to evict her creche from its Katutura premises yesterday by asking whether they had ANY of their facts right.
In an article in Friday's The Namibian, 1lx: municipality said it intended giving the house to a woman who had been living there with Kozonguizi' s uncle before the creche was established at the beginning of 1989.
Municipality PRO Willie Kauaria said that after her uncle's death,. Kozonguizi had "kicked out the elderly woman", and that since the house was not registered in Kozonguizi' s name, the municipality had decided to hand it over to the fonner resident.
But, says Kozonguizi, who claims the house is hers by
STAFF REPORTER
~~ritance, they've got the wrong woman! "The woman who was living there with my uncle has long dislippeared from the scene. She was certainly not elderly and I did not kic.k her out. My uncle and other relatives asked me to approach the woman to leave, as she had far outstayed her original request to stay for a few months. When she finally went, she went of her own accord.
"As far as I know, the woman they want to give the house to is a distant cousin who is still living in a back room and has never paid rent until the municipality just arranged for her to do so. I was quite happy for her to stay there alongside the creche, but it seems she wants the place for herself. ' ,
Kozonguizi was furious
yesterday at the stand taken by the municipality. She said she could not understand why it was so against her continuing with the creche when facilities for pre-school children in Katutura were appalling. Most of the creche's 52 children come from the Single Quarters and are the sons and daughters of domestic workers.
, 'It is a convenient place for the parents to drop their children and they are more than satisfied with the service we give. 'The municipality says our creche does not have enough space or adequate facilities. Have they looked inside the Singles Quarters lately?"
The three-room creche is admittedly small for 52 children, but there is a large garden and enough employees and volunteers to take care of the children. Given the fact that all Katutura creches are overcrowded and too scarce anyway, the municipality's reasoning seems rather unrealistic.
Kozonguizi also asked why, .if she had no rightto the house, had the municipality allowed her to pay its rent for the last three years? Why had it accepted her offer to pay her uncle's outstanding bills? And why 4ad she been allowed to pay fer the installation of water and electricity?
"I can't see what grounds they have for giving the house to another person, particularly when they se~mtohave got-the identity 1hixed up anyway,"
THE Hotel Association of Namibia is to reconsider its deCIsion of July 17 to e~pel the Hotel Onduri of Outjo, the first time it has taken such drastic action against a member. The expulsion followed an.incident on July 9 when proprietor Burkhard Friedrichsmeier refused entry to the private bar to Deputy Minister of Wildlife, Conservation ~<!

SA's Frankenstein SWAPO chief co-ordinator Moses Garoeb on Friday launched a scathing attack against opposition MPs calling them a "bunch of defaulters" . -
Garoeb's attack came in the ~vake of SA Foreign Minister Pik Botha 's revelations that SA pumped more thanRlOO million into the coffers of oppositionparties to fight Swapo during the 1989 elections.
Garoeb made the accusations during a press conference at the Swapo Headquarters.
He described the amount of money said to have been given to the opposition as "the tip of the iceberg" designed "to fight, defeat, or deny Swapo a two-thirds majority in the elections" .
• , All along we stated that DT A was created by SA from the start but people did not believe us, " Garoeb added.
, • SA created a Frankenstein which she has to continue feeding with artificial blood," he said. "Money given for the elections was just a continuation of that support". The Swapo chief said South Africa's "main aim ... was to prevent independence".
, , As long as SA remains in the present fonn, she will continue to de stabilise the country, and send money for regional elections, " Garoeb continued.
He said he had nothing against Afrikaans-speaking whites. "I am called radical because I speak the truth. But, you must always look at Boors with a second eye - they always have a hidden agenda."
However, he 'added, there were those white people who were different, "but this minority of whites are victimised by others".
"I have said that reconciliation is dead, I was wrong. Reconciliation has hardly started, if it ever started":

More revelations from 'Basson THE SOUTH African Government is continuing. to fund Namibian politi. cal parties, and though the scale of funding is smaller than during the elections, it is "enough to keep them going".
This and other claims of SA interference in Namibia w'ere made by self-confessed SADF propagandist Nico Basson in a fresh round of revelations in Johannesburg on Friday.
Basson also said the SADF staged fights between S'outh Africa's Foreign Affairs Minister Pile Botha and DT A leader Dirk Mudge in an attempt to make Mudge appear anti-
South African. Basson claimed military
intelligence had infiltrated U ntag as high up as the secretary to the head of the UN team. adding that the April 1 incursion was spread as a rumour by the SADF when it leamed Li.at Swapo soldiers would be trying to return to Namibia peacefully.
He said they spread the story of an incursion until they had pennission from the UN to interve~ and that "Swapo soldiers were shot in the back".
Stories about Swapo detainees were also blown out of all proportion to discredit the party, he said. -
On the subject of party funding, Basson claimed money
was channelled in various ways.
"The money would go to the Channel Islands and from there to a country like Switzerland before being sent to Namibia." -
Defence Force vehicles were repainted ~d handed over to political parties and army rations were dished out at DT A rallies, according to Basson.
He said SADF operations in Namibia was "about 80 per cent of the SA government's involvement" .
The next biggest area of involvment was through Foreign Affairs.
He also alleged that three regions of the SADF's clan-

Women in peace
WE have been women in war. Now we are women inpeace. Let us have our chance to fulfil our aspirations to help our country to emerge from the 'darkness' of conflict, inequality and grinding poverty. The dreams of a developed Nanubia will be doomed in the absence of women' s participation. On top of that, the idea that all people, the youth, the women and the elderly should be involved in the development process is an extremely important one, particularly at this time when Namibia needs to marshall all its available resourc'es for development. Effective utilisation of human resources at all levels and all dimensions, is key to the promotion of real development in Namibia.
The time has come that a change of attitude must take place. Women have now for some time realised that we have the potential (social, economic and political) and wisdom to shape the future of this country. We therefore rightfully demand the opportunity to have this valuable potential fully tapped for the development of Namibia. Machinery to enable women of Namibia to fully participate in the development of our motherland must be put in place .
Women's participation will change society and liberate women. Women's struggle must not be seen in one dimension, as simply a struggle against men. See the many aspects of the structural dimension (social, political, cultural and economic).
Struggle means awareness . Struggle means organisation and unity. Struggle means courage, struggle means faith and hope. We must begin to
. build these up in our small circles and link up with one another. Nobody can help in this process more than women ourselves. Let us mobilise and organise ourselves for systematic involvement in change. Let us support ourselves in organising at the workplace, at home and in society.
There are signs of resistance all around us as men try desperately to cling to the power that will fast slip through their fingers. We have to accept the fact that society has a dynamic nature, and as such, changes have to occur periodically. Others are so drastic that they appear to shake the very foundation on which society rests. Once a foundation of a building is shaken, its occupants
. begin to panic because they fear the unknown.
In conclusion, it is my wish that what I write must not become another theoretical and

Undeserving project
I WAS shocked to read ~ The Namibian (25 July 1991) of the Ministry of Transport and Works' intention to start widening the road to the airport within the next few weeks. I was under the impression that the government didn't have money to throw around!
The report states that "the· road improvements will knock time off the tedious journey to the airport" . Are we, as a developing country, with a desperate shortage of fundamental facilities such as schools and hospitals, really able to justify spending millions of Rands merely to relieve a few privileged people of a little frustration?
It is interesting to look carefully at exactly the sort of time that is going to be saved by the road improvements. For the forty kilometres from the Windhoek city limits to the airport, the journey takes 30 minutes at an average speed of 80km/hr. Were improvements to make it possible to drive at an average speed of lOOkm/hr the journey would be reduced to 24 minutes.
A much cheaper solution to the problem of getting to the airport on time would be to leave home six minutes earlier than usual.
I am sure that the argument will be raised that a widened road will also be a safer road; that in the long run there will be fewer fatalities. Although I don't believe that this is even necessarily going to be the case (three lane roads have in many cases been shown to be the most dangerous of them all) I f~l that improved safety is not a good enough justification in any case. At the risk of sounding callous, I would say that the number of lives that could be saved through improved educational and medical facilities is much higher than that which will r~sult from the safer road.
I would appreciate hearing the Ministry's views on the subject as well as exactly how much of the taxpayer's money is being spend on this, in my opinion, undeserving project.

Too much sex

and to be able to fonnu late our own balanced view and make sound deductions.
Your newspaper, the Windhoek Advertiser, is to be congratulated in many respects. Your command of English and journalistic coverage is laudable.
But unfortunately your reporting and photographs on sex is revolting. The government as well as our own capable people and foreign-assisting countries are doing their best to achieve the aim of upliftrnent of t4e new Namibian nation in the widest possible sense. They are working hard at the problems of housing, living standards, health education and raising of moral standards. Unless a nation has high moral standards and self discipline you will not stop theft, misuse of property, violation ofhuman rights, rape and assault.
Numerous symposiums, seminars and workshops have been launched to impart knowledge on Aids, birth control, sex education and sex behaviour to both the youth imd adults. We are all aware that the youth is particular is so susceptible to adverse influences.
. All this and .much more is being done by government and other countries. You on the contrary revel in the weekly articles on divorce, sex and sex photographs, thus breaking down all the effort that has been put into moral upliftrnent.
When the Honourable Minister, Mrs Pendukeni Ithana, raised .the subject of your sex coverage in your newspaper, there was no response except for a humiliating reply.
Your sex related photographs and articles we as parents and parties interested in building an exemplary nation, find totally unacceptable.
Your report on divorce, assault. and rape is unnecessarily detailed and always undue emphasis on sex.
We, irrespective of race, colour or creed, request that you abstain from over emphasising and publishing sex related articles and photographs.
MARIETJIE POTIAS WINDHOEK
If the shoe fits I HOPE you will publish my reply to Mr C Angula's report of 19 July 1991 in his paper, The Namibian.
In my press release to which Mr Angulaexploded, I warned the NFA not to be influenced in their decision-making by a -Windhoek reporter who is calling them (NFA officials) names and who ·seems to have hatred for Windhoek-based soccer teams with large crowds. Mr Angula, it seems to me, has decided that the reporter was him and without responding to what I said, decided to attack me and my club. So Mr Angula, if the shoe fits, wear it.
In my reply to your article and my endeavour to drive the point home without attacking you as a person, I would like to say the following:
- Chief Santos FC to me, is
with or without you, . a very good team. That is why they are third on the log and I congratulate them for their performance during the past seasons. In light of this, however, I hope they will not be misled by your short sighted reporting in which you implicated me questioning their abilities. That is distortion and you know that.
- But to come back to you, even though your ability to .... organise a rematch" is in my opinion very much questionable, I would like to inform you that w~ at Stars have accepted your offer to organise a rematch. Since you claim to have the guts and knowhow to do it, please do so ... we are ·waiting.
- Moreover, if you were congratulated by the many African Stars followers, including their PRO, on the StarsLiverpool 'saga' for your 'objective reporting', why and when did your ' objective reporting' change?
Did this change with the entrance of another team which is closer to your heart in the 'red-card list ' ? The answeris a big 'yes'. If the facts that led to your ' objective reporting' in the eyes of the Stars followers haven't changed, why would the same people who congratulated you on your reporting not be happy with your reporting now?
- For Stars to have fielded 'players that were not fully registered' is just as confusing as your reporting. To us a player is either registered or not registered at all. But, if you have problems with 'half registered' players, you should clear that with the NFA. We, for your information, don't register players in NF A books. That is the NFA 's job. (see ruJe 20 of the NF A's rules and regula·tions).
However, as a person who -* 'cannot tolerate partiality,
incompetence and dishonesty in the local game' please convey your thoughts on teams using suspended players to your readers and don't try to cook facts to suit your myopic views on soccer; and as a person who
.. hates name-calling, where were your senses when you referred to others as 'troublesome' Pepsi African Stars, bunch of cowards, etc?
- When it comes to my teams ' fast fading reputation' I think any objective reporter who knows that Stars played in two finals last year (spoils were shared in one) was invited to play in this country's two biggest friendlies ever, top the log twice this year and is now very well placed on that log, will never agree that such Club's reputation is fading fast.
- About your 'soccer abilities' and your 'knowledge' of the game coupled with your armchair logic as stated in your unimpressive curriculum vitae, I would like to say:
We were not impressed, we are sorry, we are not interested in your services. You can always try the NF A ... that is exactly what I was warning them (NFA officials) against.

Negotiations in danger say ANC
JOHANNESBURG: Negotiations have been seriously endangered by revelations of the government's misuse of public funds, the African National Congress, Congress of South African Trade Unions and South African Communist Party alliance said in a statement yesterday.
After an emergency meeting this weekend to review the implications of the funding scandal, the alliance said senior government officials' reaction to the situation had been evasive and they seemed not to understand the extent to which they had endangered a peaceful resolution to South Africa'l! problems.
SUite President F W de Klerk would be judged according to what he would say on Tuesday, July 30, in response to the scandal.
, 'Our people will be watching de Klerk's performance very carefully. De Klerk will be judged in tenns of his response to the demands which have
been made by a wide range of forces, " the alliance statement said.
Demands include: * The immediate dismissal
from public office of Ministers Adriaan ~ Tlok and Magnus Malan;
* The establishment of a multi-party · commission of enquiry to investigate government involvemept in violence and the secret funding of political activity;
* The visible and public dismantling of all SAP and SADF special counter-insurgency forces, including those composed of foreigners;
* The freezing and opening to public scrutiny of secret slush
funds; * Guaranteed immunity to
all members of the seCurity forces and other state employees who wish to testify about covert operations;
* Prosecution of all security force personnel identified by past Commissions as having been implicated in the violence; and
* Reparations by the government to the victims of statesponsored violence.
"TIle latest revelations underline the fact that the present government cannot supervise the process of transition. "
The alliance said it would be reviewing the situation during the next week. - Sapa.
CP calls for probe by Advocate-General JOHANNESBURG: The Conservative Party is to lay the government's slush fund activities before the Advocate-General for his investigation and report, the leader of the party, Dr Andries Treurnicht, said in a statement yesterday.
, , We will also be requesting the Advocate-General to investigate all other covert projects funded with public monies since 1986."
The CP believed it would be the most important test to date of the efficacy and power of the office of the AdvocateGeneral, established in 1979 following the Information scandal.
, 'It mu st be made clear that the object oflaying a matter of this nature before the Advocate-General is for him to. investigate the propriety of the disbursements of public mo-
nies, as opposed to the simple auditing of documents as performed by the Auditor-General," Treurnicht said in his statement.
"It is the first time we have needed an investigation of this scale. What we are trying to do is see if the office of the Advoc cate-General is of any use," CP President's Councillor, Clive Derby-Lewis, told Sapa.
The matter would be laid before the Advocate-General t,his week. He claimed Foreign Minister,PikBotha, was using the Auditor-General, Peter Wronsley, to create the im-
pression that all was "hunky dory".
"But if procedures are a4-hered to, then one can find nothing wrong. W ronsley cannot cornment on the purpose of the funding. "
Derby-Lewis said the Advocate-General's investigation was not the last avenue open to the CP.
"It depends on what comes out of the report. That will give us an indication of what to do next. ' , Treurnicht said any honourable Western government would have resigned under similar circumstances. - Sapa.

D-day for De Klerk
tomorrow PRETORIA: There will be a definitive development in the Inkatha funding scandal row on Tuesday this week when President F W de Klerk issues a "full statement" on the issue.
He told the m~dia in Pretoria on Tuesday last week the statement would be followed by a press conference where he would "face the press".
De Klerk, speaking at a picture cail with Bophuthatswana president Lucas Mangope, said the question of resignations by
·his ministers would be covered in his press statement.
Asked why he would only be responding to the row a week later, de Klerk said this
. was attributable to a cabinet meeting on Wednesday and an "important" but regular, scheduled State Security Council meeting today.
The seCUIocrats will probably be hard-pressed at today's meeting to explain how the infonnation was leaked to the Weekly Mail, the newspaper that broke the story.
Foreign Minister Pik Botha faced the press on the issue of clandestine government funding for political organisations during a televised event last Thursday.
Observers saidhe blundered by referring to the secret funding of N amibian political parties.
Law and Order Minister Adriaan Vlok chose rather to react through a television interview, broadcast on Saturday evening, apparently conducted by a single reporter. - Sapa.
Nuclear pact GENEVA: US and Soviet negotiators worked into predawn hours through the weekend to put the final touches on a treaty to reduce long-range strategic nuclear arms. They were under tremendous pressure to convert into treaty langu'age the last points agreed on by President Bush and Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev only two weeks ago at London. The historic pact, to be signed by Bush and Gor-bachev on Wednesday at the Kremlin summit, is the first superpower agreement actually reducing the number of long-range nuclear weapons targeted at each side. The treaty and related protocols comprise about 600 pages, considered to be the longest and most complicated arms control accord ever reached. A plenary session, officially closing the 15th round of talks, is scheduled for 0900 GMT today at the Soviet mission during which the chief US and Soviet negotiators, Linton Brooks and Yuri Nazarkin, are to initial the treaty. They will have to initial about 300 pages in each of the four copies at the closing session Monday at the Soviet mission.

INTERNATIONAL WRAP-UP
Renamo attacks Maputo suburb MAPUTO: Rebels of Renamo killed three people on Friday night in an attack against the suburb of Ndlavela on the outskirts of Mapl,lto, radio Mozammbique reported yesterday.
A further four people were seriously injured, including a member of the local militia. The rebels looted the local consumer co-operative and homes of various residents. An undetermined number of people were kidnapped by the raiders,. the radio said.
In an earlier attack on Ndlavela, on May 8, Renamo mutilated five people, hacking off their ears and noses ..
Loyalists plant incendiaries DUBLIN: A half-dozen incendiary devices were found in stores and pubs this weekend, and a pro-British "loyalist" gang from" Northern Ireland claimed responsibility.
One device caused extensive damage at the Quinnsworth supermarket in Sligo in western Ireland, and three devices went off on Saturday night at Roche's department store in Dublin.
Devices also were detonated at bats in Dunleer and Dundalk, which are both on the main highway between Dublin and Belfast in Northern Ireland. No one was injured .
15 shot down in bar BOGOTA, Colombia: Gunmen killed at least 15 people and wounded 13 when they sprayed bullets into a crowded bar in the southern city ofCali, home of one of the country's major cocaine cartels, officials said yesterday . .
A judge investigating the Saturday night massacre said he had not established the motive. But a radio network cited police as saying that the killing could be another episode in the war between theCali cocaine cartel and rival traffickers based in the city of Medellin.
Israel hedges on ME meeting JERUSALEM: A Cabinet minister said yesterruiy he expected the question of Palestinian participation in a Mideast peace conference to be settled in a few days.
Israeli religious Affairs Minister A vner Shaki said his gQvernment needed clarifications on the makeup of the Palestinian delegation before responding to the US initiative on setting up the conference.
"Israel has in principle said yes, but this is conditioned by the Palestinians not being from east Jerusalem and not being members of the PLO," he told reporters after the weekly Cabinet meeting.
Egypt not hopeful on ME peace CAIRO: Israel is showing no positive sign of takin.s a flexible
,position on Middle East peace talks, Egyptian Foreign Minister Amr Moussa said yesterday.
Moussa spoke to report.ers. one day before a visit by Israel's Foreign Minister David Levy to Cairo.
US accord in jeopardy BANGKOK: Washington will not normalize relations with
Vietnam until the issue of Americans missing there is resolved and a Cambodian peace accord is signed, a seniorUS government official said yesterday.
'Our national policy is the process of nonnalization and will formally begin on the day there is a signing in Paris of the Cambodian peace accord, " Assistant Secretary of State Richard Solomon told The Associated Press.
"The three primary issues for nonnalization are a solution to the Cambodian problem, the MIA/pO W issue, and the people still held in re-education camps in Vietnam," Solomon said in an exclusive interview. MIA/POW refers to missing in action and prisoners of war.

Mafia killed 'God's banker' , ROME: A prominent informer has asserted that the· Mafia killed Roberto Calvi, a ·financier with Vatican ties who died mysteriously after a major banking scandal in 1982, a newspaper reported yesterday.
The mobster-turned-infonner, Francesco Marino Mannoia, said organized-crime figures told him Calvi had been killed because he had taken money from the Mafia, the Rome-based daily La Repubblica reported.
Calvi was found hanging under Blackfriars Bridge in London on June 18, 1982, after his Banco Ambrosiano collapsed. A year late!'; a coroner's jury in London left unresolved the question of whether the banker had hanged himself or whether he was murdered.
Calvi was known as "God's·banker" because of his close ties with the Vatican. I

CHEGUTU, Zimbabwe: The Zimbabwe government will take measures to control excessive demands for salaries and wages during collective bargaining negotiations, a cabinet minister has said.
Ziana .nlj.tional news agency reported on Saturday that the MiniSter of Manpower Planning and Social Welfare, 10lm Nkomo, said there had to be curbs to guard against inflation and ensure the structural adjustment programme is not undermined.
"I want to , appeal to I!li employment councils still locked negotations that care must be taken to avoid the possibility of fuelling inflation and thereby eroding the purchasing power and
. al,so undermining the economic reform programme," Mr Nkomo said.
Of the 2S employment councils in the country, about nine had concluded their collective bargaining agreements while the rest were still negotiating, he said,
"There have been three deadlocks (in employment councils) and in the case of employment boards, (and) there are six outstanding agreements.
"Government is looking at the submissions of the various negotiating boards and examining them with a view to studying their impact on the structural adjustment programme," the minister said.
Once the impact had been assessed, he said, there might be need in some cases to institute some measures to control inflation and some of these would be a close scrutiny at the prices of goods, and use of the monetary devices of the Reserve Bank and the Treasury. - Sapa.
Zambia to sell state companies LUSAKA: The Zambian government on Saturday announced it was selling seven State controlled companies.
A statement from the Zambia Industrial and Mining Corporation (Zimco), the State holding company of several firms, said those who wanted to tender for the seven companies could do so by October
31.1991. Most of the companies being
offered for sale are small and loss making State firms, which have been heavily subsidised by the government.
The move marks Zambia' s first step towards privatisation, although critics have said the selling of State assests should only have started once the proposed stock exchange became operational.
Critics of the sale of state firms include United National Independence Party presidential candidate and prominent businessman, Enock Kavindele, business consultant Patrick Katyoka and Movement for (0
Multi-Party Democracy spo"kesman for commerce and industry. Ronald Penza.
Both Zambian and foreign nationals, companies and in!\titutions will be given the chance to acquire either minority or majority shareholding in the companies listed. -

Voorman beskuldig van onmenslikheid
REBEKKA Draaier, baar man en baar seun beweer bulle is onmenslik deur die voorman van die plaas waarop bulle gewerk bet bebandei maar weet nie wat om daaraan te doen nie.
Daar is nog twee varke van hulle op die plaas Tantus in die Namib maar hulle is te bang om te probeer om die varke terug te kry aangesien die voorman by 'n vorige geleentheid oor hul koppe geskiet het.
Die voonnan is dieselfde man wat na bewering op Abraham Draaier, die broer van Rebekka geskiet en horn in albei bene gewondhet.
Rebekka se man het ook vir die eienaar van die plaas gewerk maar is redelik onlangs deur die voorman van die plaas vanaf die werf gejaag.
Sy se dit sou nie gebeur indien die voorman van die plaas werklik omgegee het vir hul werkers nie.
Haar man het na bewering 'n paar maande gelede 'n operasie gehad. Sy kon nie verduidelik wat die doel van die operasie was nie aangesien sy nie lean lees of skryf nie.
Die operasie gee vir horn soms probleme en die eienaar van die plaas moes horn gereeld na dokters neem indien die pyn te erg raak
Hy het weer die pyne begin kry en die voorman gevra om horn na die dokters te bring
maar die voorman wou nie. Teneindl :aadhethybesluit
om na die hoofpad wat 'n paar kilometer weg van die plaas veIbyloq> te gaan om te probeei ryloop. Hy het daarin geslaag om Windhoek. te bereik maar terwyl hy nog onder doktersbehandeliog is het sy vrou ook in . Windhoek aangekom.
Sy het aanhom vertel dat die voorman op die plaas haar drie dae na hy weg is van die plaas op dieselfde plek kom aflaai het waarvandaan hy geryloop het.
Hy het aanhaarvertel omna haar man te gaan.
Intussen het hy haar seun -wat ongeveer vyftienjaar oud is teruggehou om op die plaas te werk. hy moes die skape oppas en die jong seun wat nie lean lees of skryf nie se hy weet nie wat die salaris was waarvoor hy gewerk het nie aangesien hy sommige keer tien rand gekry het en op ander kere net 'n twee rand.
Terwyl hy op die plaas was het die voorman een van die drie varke van sy ouers wat hulle op die plaas agtergelaat het geskiet.
Hulle is van die vleis gegee
INVITATION TO TENDER
The Rehoboth Development and Investment Corporation (REKOR) invites tenders to purchase one

maar het 'n saak by die polisie aanbangig gemaak.
Die polisie van Klein-Aub het op die plaas opgedaag maar was volgens die plaawerkers te bang om in die yskas van die voorman te kyk.
hulle het die saak ondersoek en bevind die vark is nie deur die voorman of een van die senior werkers op die plaas geskiet nie. die werkers hou egter vol die vark is deur die seun van die eienaar geskiet en indien die polisie op daardie stadium in die yskas sou kyk sou hulle die karkas van die vark daar aantref.
Draaier se sy het na sy van die voorval bewus geraak het
na die plaas teruggekeer om haar varke te gaan haal. die voorman het haar aanvanklik toegelaat om na die varke op dieplaastesoekmaarhetna 'n halfuur met sy geweer op hulle begin skiet. Hy het hulle beopdrag om die plaas te verlaat nog voor hulle die varke opgespoor het. Sy se sy sien nie kiws om weer na die plaas te gaannie.
Intussen kon nog nie bevestig word of die voorman deur die polisie in hegtenis geneem is nie. N a bewering is 'n groep polisiemanne verlede Donderdag na die plaas gestuur o~ die voorman te arresteer vir die skote op Abraham Draaier.
REGS: Rebekka Draaier en baar seun Saul Gawanab (ongeveer 15). Die seun wat na bul verduideliking net Substanderd A bygewoon het moes die skool verlaat na hulle op die plaas Tantus begin werk. Hy is deur die voor man opdie'plaas teruggehou om na die skape te kyk na sy ouers van die plaas af geja is.
DIE bevinding van die dokters by die lykskouing van Rosalia Namises was dat die dogtertjie werklik aan elektriese skok gesterf het.
Die lykskouing sou aanvanklik op Usakos gehou word maar 'n onathanklike dokter kon dit nie bywoon nie en die gesin was nie daarmee tevrede nie en het daarom 'n dringende beroep op die patoloog op Usakos gedoen om nie die lykskouing te hou op 'n plek waar 'n onafhanklike dokter dit nie lean bywoon nie. Die gemeenskap wou graag he dat 'n onathanklike persoon die nadoodse ondersoek behartig.
Rosalia Namises 'n dogtertjie van 14-jaar is op Vrydag 12
Julie omstreeks 12hOO in die Hakhaseb-woonbuurt op Usakos doodgeskok deurdat sy aan een van die metaaldose wat teen 'n huis aangebring is en waarin die munisipale meters is, geraakhet terwyl sy oor 'n omheiningsdraad spring.
'n Ooggetuie op die toneel het gese sy was besig om oor die draad te klim enhet met die klimmery aan die meterdoos geraak waar sy die skok opgedoen het. Sy is met haar aankoms by die hospitaal as dood verklaar.

Sincere condolences to his loved ones
Die woonbuurt het ongeveer sewe maande gelede 'n IUlwe rioolstelsel ontvang en een van die afleidings wat deur inwoners gemaak word is dat 'n kragdraad met die uitgrawings oopgelaat is en aan die omheining of die meterdoos geraak het.
Die lykskouing op die meisie kon nie gedoen word nie aangesien diepatoloog op die dorp met verlof was.
Die krag in die woonbuurt is onmiddelik na die aanmelding van die voorval afgesny en amptenare van die munisipaliteit, insluitende die stadsklerk Pieter 1.oots, en polisiebeamptes het ondersoek op die tonee1 gaan instel.
Inwoners op die dorp het volgens Pastoor James Tjibeba van die Lutherse Kerk hul bekommernis uitgespreek oor die aangeleentheid en hy wou veral weet hoe veilig die elektriese diens aan die woonbuurt is.
Hy het gese die meeste van die meterdose in die woonbuurt is van yster en dit lean baie gevaarlik wees indien daar ander drade is wat oop mag le.
Pieter Loots, die Stadsklerk van Usakos, wou homself onmiddelik na die voorval nie veel uitlaat nie weens die polisie-ondersoek wat nog hangende was.
Die oorsaak van die dood was nog nie aan horn bekend nie. Hy se die krag van die woonbuurt is onmiddellik na die voorval afgeskakel.
Die kabel wat die krag vanaf 'n paal na die huis bring is ook
verwyder en na die polisiestasie geneem vir verdere ondersoeke.
Die uitslag van die polisieondersoek is dusver nog nie bekend gamaak nie aangesien dit moontlik ill 'n hofsaak as getuienis gebruik kan word.
Intussen het die gemeenskap van die dorp op 'n vergadering wat op Donderdag 25 Junie gehou en deur 110 gemeenskapslede bygewoon is tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat die munisipale elektrisiteit op die dorp nie deur bevoegde persone hanteer word nie.
Die -vergadering het besluit om aan te dring op regeringsin-
-menging om toe te sien dat 'n elektrisienmet 'nkwalifikasie van hoer as 'n N6 op die dorp aangestel moet word.
Die versoek is ook gerig dat die werk van die elektrisiens op die dorp deur gekwalifiseerde persone nagegaan moet word.
'n Ander versoek is dat die persone wat huidiglik aangestel is hul kwalifikasies moet toon en indien -dit nie genoegsaam is nie moet bedank.
Die elektriese aansluitings tot al die huise in die woonbuurt moet ook herondersoek word.
Pastoor James Tjibeba van die Lutherse Kerk op die dorp het te kenne gegee dat die neem van regstappe om die persoon of persone wat verantwoordlik vir die ontydige dood van die dogtertjie was, nie uitgesluit is nie. Die stadsklerlc van die dorp kon gister ongelukkig nie vir kommentaar opgespoor word nie.

Both goals were scored in the first half.
Hellenic broke the deadlock in an evenly contested' match in the 25th minute when Reggie Jantjies slotted home from the rebound after goalkeeper Nelson Still made a brave save from John Sissons when he collected a bad back pass from Dynamos defender Gora Ephriam.
However, Dynamos struck three minutes later when striker Marks Maponyane coolly slot-
ted home the equaliser after goalkeeper Patrick Wasmuth failed to collect a right wing cross.
Neither side was able to dominate the second period but it was Dynamos who had the more chances. The Cape club were content to hold on for their draw and go into next weekend's round against Sharp Blackpool as firm favourites to clinch a place in the final on August 24.

Blue Bulls take revenge PRETORIA: Northern Transvaal hooker Vii Schmidt has sympathy for Natal.
Schmidt was instrumental in the Blue Bulls' record 62-6 thrashing of the Banana Boys in the Lion Cup final at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.
However, almost three months ago Schmidt was captain of a Northerns team that was handed its biggest defeat ever (54-15) -ironically by Natal at Durban' s Kings Park stadium.
It is a day Schmidt would like to wipe from his memory - the same that Natal should do after their biggest defe~t . "I hope they do not feel as badly as we did after the Durban match. It is not worth it," Schmidt sympathized with Craig Jamieson and his men.
Not only did the Bulls' hooker score three of his team's ten tries, but he dotted down twice in that crucial opening stanza -when Northerns ran up a 15-0 lead in as many minutes.
Natal coach Ian McIntosh admitted after the match that his team had lost the match in the opening quarter of an hour, when tbR
' ;)me team were going forward all the time and his men were be~':g caught behind the ad vantage line.
It was rather fitting that Schmidt was the man to play such a big role in the initial doWnfall of the Natalians, after the humiliation he had to suffer in Durban.
It started as early as the third minute, when Schmidt charged down an attempted clearance from Natal fullback Joel Stamsky, followed up and pounced on the ball.
His second try came barely three minutes later when his fellow forwards set up a quick second phase ball and he was on hand to barge his way over. Another man to play a key role in that opening period was evergreenflyhalfN aas Bptha. Not only did he convert both Schmidt's tries. but added a classic left-footed dropgoal.
The Banana Boys' mentor was gracious in defeat and admitted that the day belonged entirely to the Blue Bulls.
"Whatever they tried worked out' for them, while the ball simply would not bounce our way. They deserved this victory," McIntosh said. And the Blue Bulls thouroughly deserved to win against a Natal team that kept on trying right to the end, but were simply overpowered. Except for the lineouts, where Natal's Andre Botha and Rudi Visagie took the better quality possession, Northerns had a clear edge up front.
In the ' scrums - where Natal's powerhouse frontrow of Guy Kebble, Tom Lawton and Lood Muller had been in devastating form all season - the Blue Bulls not only held their own, but completely neutralised what used to be the Banana Boys best weapon. The other aspect of Natal , s game which was very effectively neutralised on Saturday was their excellent driving - where Blue Bull flanker Piet Pretorius played a key role.
His excellent tackling stifled almost every move the Banana Boy forwards came up with and reduced their attempts from a team effort to pieces of individual brilliance.
A lack of support also contributed to the visitors' doWnfall, while Northerns are beginning to look like the team of old again.
The forwards can take on and beat any pack, while the backs -with the genial Botha's return making the difference - also regaining their try scoring touches.
Beside's Schmidt' s three tries lock Adolf Malan, fullback Theo van Rensburg (two), wing' Deon Oosthuizen (two), CC(.Il.tre FA Meiring nd scrumhalf Robert du Preez scored tries.
Botha added 22 points with eight conversions, a penalty and that dropgoal.
Natal's points came from two loel Stransky penalties. - Sapa.

Capriati puts US ahead ENGLAND: Jennifer Capriati, living dangerously, put the United States on the road to retaining the Federation Cup by beating Spain's Conchita Martinez in the opening singles rubber of yesterday's fmal.
Capriati, 15, two points from defeat ata set and 5-4. 0-30 down, recovered well to win 4-6 7-6 6-1 and 'give the American team a vital 1-0 lead in the bcst-of~three' final.
It was not the best perf0111lllllCC of Capriati' , career but, in the ' cin:umstances, it was onc of the more valuable.
Martinez, 19, who was less tha.. complimentary to her oppo" nent after beating Capriati 6-3 6-3 in this year's French Open.
faded badly on a hot afternoon to give the Americans a definite edge.
Before the final, they had looked at Capriati 's match as the crucial rubber, believing that they could squeeze.at least one point out of either Mary Joo Fernandez' s singles clash with Arantxa Sanchez Vicario or from experienced doubles pair Zina Garrison and Gigi Fernandez.
Capriati, too defensive in the first set, came out of her selfimposed shell in the second to give Martinez, the world number seven, a lesson in persistence.
Having broken back to 5-5 in the second set, she exercised increasing control, romping through the second set tie-break 7-3 and wrapping up victory after 2-1/4 hours on centre court.
The United States have won the event 14 times in 28 previous attempts. - Sapa-Reuter.
Aston Villa sign Richardson BIRMINGHAM: Aston Villa are posed to take their summer spendingJo 2,7 million pounds this week with the signing of Real Soeiedad's English midfielder Kevin Richardson.
After one season in the Spanish league the one-time Everton and Arsenal star is ready to b<t)l"eunited with former Sociedad team-mate Dalian Atkinson at Villa Park today.
Atkinsonjoined Villa for 1,8 million pounds earlier this month and now Richardson has agreed to follow him in a deal worth 450,000 pounds.
Olympique invest in future MARSEILLES: Olympique Marseille have started a futures market in European football talent.
The French champions announced on Saturday that they had signed Argentinian international Leonardo Rodriguez and Alen Boksic of Yugoslavia, but neither will play for them this season.
Rodriguez, a part of the Copa America winning Argentinian side, was expected in Lyons on Saturday to sign a contract. The 24-year-old who plays with San Lorenzo is expected to be loaned to another French club for this sea~on.
Marseille vice presicent Jean Louis Levreau said 21-year-old Boksic would stay with his Yugoskv side Hadjuk Split this season.
" We are investing in the future, " said Jean Louis Lewvreau. " We are buying players under 25 , rising' stars in their coutries, for prices three or four times less than we would in two years. They are also players we need. ' ,
Greig calls it quits LONDON: South African-born Ian Greig: captain of Surrey for the last five years, announced on Friday that he would step down at the end of the season.
"This has not been an easy decision," said the 35-year-old former England all-rounder.
"The team is ready for a new leader and thi.s early announcement gives all concerned time to consider options before the end of the season. ' ,
Greig said he intended to carry on playing for the county next season when he has been awarded a benefit.
Surrey said a successor would not be announced immediately.
Botham to join Durham LONDON: Former England allorounder!an Botham is set to join Durham when they become the 18th English flrst-class cricket county next year. '
"Whilst we realise that, in releasing Ian, it will be possible for any county to approach him, it is e!lsy to understand that a link: with DuIham would be attra~tive to him," said Worc~stershire
secretary Mike Voekins. "It would take him back very near his home and it would
provide a new and exciting challenge for him at the end of his career," he added.
Botham's current county Worcestershire said on Saturday they would release him at the end of the current season and confirmed Durham had made an approach' for the player.
Durham have already recruited Australian test batsman Dean Jones as their overseas player for next season.
England drilled down under SYDNEY: Australia beat England 40-15 here on Saturday for a second record-breaking Rugby Union test win in a week.
The highest margin victory over the English Five Nations champions, coming so soon after the 63-6 mauling of Wales, must have reduced Australia's World Cup odds.
The victory was Australia's 11th in 17 internationals against England - the Wallabies have not been beaten in seven home tests.
And the records, like the points, flowed. MichaelLynagh swept past the 600 point barrier swelling his international world record tally to 607 after Saturday's 20 point haul from four penalty goals and four conversions.
Winger David Campese, marvellously on form with his running and prodigious lin~ kicks, stretched his world record try tally to 40 with a double.

.And Sorento Bues also through.~. FORMER champions Nashua Black Africa and Sorento Bucs both put one hand on the coveted Castle Classic trophy at the expenses of Sarusas Orlando Pirates and Civics by staging fine wins in semifinal matches played at the Katutura Stadium yesterday.
While Black Africa, winners of the Classic trophy in 1989, had to struggle from being 1-0 down to Pirates, Sorento easily defeated Civics 2-0.
The first semi-final saw Sorento Bucs living up to their 'Giant Killing' reputation when in the opening 10 minutes of the not-so-exciting tie they sunk Civics hopes of appearing in their first Classic final.
On target for the Giant Killers, penalty shoot-out winners over Liverpool in a quarterfinal match played on Friday, with one goal each were the illustrious Publius Wermann and the strong-dribbling Rocco Jagger.
but were not capable of sustaining the pace to go into the final of this top competition.
Players like Steven 'Madigage' Damaseb, Samora 'Moran' Appolus and the ex-
perienced Jorries Afrikaner (scorer of Pirates only goal), put Black Africa ' s defence under tremendous pressure
