VIENNA, Austria — Drug abuse has stabilized in North America and Western Europe but appears to be soaring in the former Soviet Union and elsewhere, a global U.N. survey reported Monday. Use of drugs now global problem Associated Press THE KWON DO Holiday Plaza • 25th & Iowa 749-4400 "Ilicit production, trafficking and abuse of drugs, together with attendant violence and corruption, continue to imperil public health in virtually all countries." But it lamented lack of programs providing alternative incomes to growers of narcotic crops, and said economic hardship made the highly lucrative drug trade as attractive as ever. The board said cocaine abuse, once limited mainly to America and Europe, was threatening Africa, the Near and Middle East and Asia as world drugings expand markets. The report praised anti-drug efforts in some opium- and cocaine-producing areas of Asia and Latin America. The report noted that health problems associated with drug abuse are magnified by spread of the AIDS virus among intravenous drug users. WASHINGTON — Israel and Palestinians have broken their procedural deadlock and decided on a formula for negotiations over Palestinian autonomy. Formula set for Mideast peace talks The Associated Press Despite progress, disputes still separate sniping participants On another front at the resumption of Mideast peace talks, however, Israel and Syria engaged in an acidic exchange. Syria accused Israel of giving the peace process short shrift, and Israel responded with charge that it had been The breakthrough between Israel and the Palestinians may clear the way for work on Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir's proposal that Palestinians on the West Bank and Gaza run their own day-to-day affairs. The compromise, advanced by Israel and accepted by the Palestinians, involves the establishment of two committees. One will discuss autonomy and other issues concerning the Palestinians. The second committee will deal with issues between Israel and Jordan. Israel's chief negotiator in the talks. Elyakim Rubinstein, said a three-way general meeting would be held Monday afternoon, immediatelyfol- Israel's proposal provides for Jordanians to be present when Palestinian issues are discussed. But the committee will be lopsided in favor of the Palestinians. The Palestinians had demanded the right to deal with Israel without Jordanians at the table. The dispute blocked any progress at the last round of talks, which ended here Dec. 18. Hanan Ashrawi, representative for the Palestinians, said, "I'm very happy to report that the phase of the corridor diplomacy is over." Talks between Hamas and Israel last month because of the procedural issue. *Every time we come to start a serious round of talks they limit it to two or three days, which is an indication of the importance they give to the peace process.* Alla't said. lowed by direct talks with nine Palestinians and two Jordanians. A separate meeting with nine Jordanians and two Palestinians will be held Tuesday, he said. Yosef Ben-Aharon, Israel's chief delegate for the talks with Syria, was equally negative. "There is a growing degree of frustration during these talks with the Syrians because we've been trying again and again to get them to address themselves to the substance." and another round here last month without much headway on the key issues: The Arabs' refusal to recognize a Jewish state in the Middle East; Israel's determination to retain territory Syria, Jordan and Egypt lost when Israel won the 1967 Six-Day War; Some form of self-rule for the 1.7 million Palestinian Arabs who live under Israel's control of the West Bank and Gaza. Israeli-Syrian talks, meanwhile, resumed where they left off in December, with countercharges and no progress. The talks have to have begun Tuesday under an arrangement reached before the last round recessed Dec. 18. But the Arabs stalled in protest of Israel's decision to expel 12 Palestinians suspected of inciting terrorism on the West Bank and in Gaza. Ben-Aharon said his delegation displayed a map used in Syrian schools where Israel doesn't exist "and we told them that this is the basic problem, that Syria denies the legitimacy and existence of Israel." Israel's ambassador to Washington Zalman Shoval said Syria's attitude toward Israel does not "necessarily auger well for the continuation of the talks." "I'm sorry to say that once again we are greatly disappointed, 'Syrian delegation chief Muwaffak Allaf said after the morning session at the State Department. "It is really an exercise in futility." He blasted the Israeliis for their decision to depart Washington on Wednesday. He said that Israel had proposed an afternoon meeting Monday but that Syria had rejected the suggestion. He said the two sides would meet again Tuesday. A third phase of talks, between Israel and Lebanon, was postponed when the chief Lebanese negotiator, Souheil Chammas, became ill with the flu. If the United States approves the guarantees, "we will view this as a direct affront to the integrity of the peace process" and of the United States as an even-handed sponsor, she said. Ashrawi said her delegation had handed the Israelis a letter expressing the Palestinians "serious concern and grave alarm" at the planned expulsion of the 12 accused by Israel of fomenting terrorism. An opening round was held in Madrid last year Ashrawi also said the Palestinians would again appeal to the United States to withhold federal guarantees for $10 billion in loans Israel is seeking to resettle hundreds of thousands of Jews from the former Soviet Union.
