Rhodesia ends Mozambique raids
A brief commuunce issued after 36 hours of silence said. "A total of 10 terrorist bases have been effectively neutralized. As a result of these self-defense operations against these terrorist bases, the intended disruptive effects have been achieved. Security forces suffered one minor casualty."
The communique did not say infantry units had crossed the frontier, although an initial announcement Sunday had said security forces were launching operations against selected terrorist bases in Mozambique.
and the attacks had been carried out by fighter-bombers. He said that 12 persons were killed and 110 wounded in Manica Province and that a school there was destroyed. No casualty figures were given for other areas attacked.
In Maputo, the capital of Mozambique, a government spokesman said there had been no attacks on the president.
THE RHODESIAN communique made no mention of guerrilla casualties. This was in contrast to the last award acknowledged by the government in November 1977, when it said at least 60 guerrillas were killed and 52 weapons of weapons and ammunition were destroyed.
The spokesman in Maputo said, "Mozambican forces fought off attacks launched against the provinces of Manica and the air force of the illegal zodiac regime."
Rhodesia had announced the latest raids in a tere communique Sunday and then made no further comment until it reported that the raids were successfully completed.
Liquid gas transportation condemned as dangerous
WASHINGTON (AP) - Railroad cars, trucks and storage tanks filled with liquid gas are so vulnerable to accidental explosion or sabotage that they should be isolated from highly populated areas, a congressional report said yesterday.
- "If liquid gas spreads across a city through sewers, subways or other underground conduits or if a massive burning cloud is blown along by a strong wind," the report by the General Accounting Office said, "a city may be faced with a very large number of ignitions and explosions across a wide area."
Although a sharp increase in the use of concentrated liquid fuels from natural gas and petroleum has been projected, the government has done almost nothing to avert potential catastrophes, the report said.
THE GAO, the congressional investigative agency, said it examined all phases of transporting and storing liquid gas produced as a source of energy and found a potential public danger rivaling that of major accident at a nuclear power plant.
"A major spill in a densely populated area, whether by accident, natural forces or sabotage, could be catastrophic," the report said.
BY 1985, it is expected that liquified water will equal 15 percent of natural groundwater.
But the American Gas Association, an industry organization, called the report misleading and said, "It lacks credibility because it fails to deal with reality."
quid gas from petroleum also is in high development partertion for agricultural purposes in India.
Highly concentrated liquified gas returns to a highly volatile and flammable gaseous state.
The report said gas escaping from a storage tank or from the accidental crash of a railroad car or tank truck could result in serious injury and death. The capability of existing firefighting agencies.
