Israel and PLO finalize agreement
WASHINGTON — A top PLO official said yesterday that an agreement had been finalized with Israel on self-government for the Palestinians and that Israel and the PLO would announce mutual recognition within a day or two.
The Associated Press
day approved the broad outlines of the agreement worked out secretly between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization.
"We hope to hear very soon — tomorrow or the day after" statements of "full mutual recognition" by PLO chairman Yasser Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, said Nabil Shaah, the top PLO coordinator for the Mideast peace talks.
ebrogo general. Shaaith said the agreement had already been worked out and that negotiators in Washington were in a "holding pattern" awaiting ratification of the accord by the PLO's executive committee and the Israeli parliament.
He spoke as the 11th round of negotiations began at the State Department after Israel's Cabinet on Mon-
Afterward, Shaath said in an interview that the agreement could be signed by both sides — possibly in Washington — and then negotiators could work out the fine print.

agreement.
Christopher, at a photo opportunity, said the United States was reconsidering its three-year ban on contacts with the PLO. "Obviously there are developments taking place that we are going to follow very closely," he said.
Cherian Syrian negotiator Muwaaffiqall Allat registered hope that progress on the Palestinian front would spread throughout the talks. "We hope the Israeli delegation will be following a more serious approach," he said.
The new agreement foresees selt rule for the Palestinians in the Israeli-
occupied Gaza Strip and in the biblical West Bank town of Jericho, as a first step toward autonomy for all 1.8 million Palestinians in the West Bank.
Israel and the PLO appear to have reached an understanding that says that once the PLO renounces all terrorism, recognition will follow.
It also implies a fact to recognition of the PLO, a group long reviled by Israel for its terrorism but which now appears to be the key to any peace agreement with the Palestinians.
Bosnian conference gets mixed results
The Associated Press
GENEVA — Bosnia's Muslim-led government and rebel Sberg agreed yesterday on a new cease-fire as year-old negotiations to end the brutal war by splitting the country reached a decisive phase.
Serb President Slobodan Milosevic and Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, meanwhile, said they expected Bosnian President Alja iztebegovic to accept a separate plan to split Bosnia into three ethnic republics today.
"The conference continues tomorrow (today) and we are expecting the Muslim side to sign the whole package," Karadzic said as he emerged from day-long talks.
But Izzebekovic said there was no breakthrough in discussions on the boundaries of the republics.
"No progress so far," he said. "Maybe tomorrow. Izetbegovic has been consistently downbeat in public comments about the peace talks.
He has slammed a peace plan proposed by international mediators as rewarding Serb and Croat aggression. But he fears the outgunned government forces, and suffering Muslim civilians may not survive another winter.

eiyan. Kearadic aide Nikola Koljivec said other provisions included prison exchanges and a telephone hot line between government headquarters in Sarajevo and the Bosnian Serb base in nearby Pale, the first phone link since the war began nearly 17 months ago.
Izebegovic and Karadzic also agreed to set up a joint commission to regulate electricity and water supplies in all cities and pledged to calm news media, which have been used to incite hatred
among the three ethnic groups.
Government spokesman Mirza Hajr confirmed the agreement, which has yet to be signed and is separate from the plan to divide up the country. However, he played down its importance.
Koljevic said Izetbegovic made only minimal demands for changes in the map proposed by international mediators despite his earlier statements that the proposals were unacceptable.
Croatian President Franjo Tudjman said the Bosnian Croats had dropped their demands for changes in the borders on the proposed maps and were ready to sign the peace plan.
The Sorbs have already said they would sign the deal proposed by mediators Lord Owen of the European Community and Thorvald Stoltenberg of the United Nations.

Latest stats: Americans living longer than ever
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — More Americans died in 1991 than ever before, but life expectancy at birth rose to a record 75.5 years, the government's record-keepers reported yesterday.
Heart disease, cancer and strokes remain the three big killers, claiming 64 percent of the 2,169,518 lives lost in 1991, the National Center for Health Statistics said.
Heath status assessed
Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases —
including bronchitis, asthma and emphysema
overtook accidents as the fourth-leading cause of death. That was due in part to an 8 percent drop in motor-vehicle fatalities.
AIDS moved from 10th to ninth place on the list. Some 29,555 people died of AIDS complications. Men outnumbered women among the victims by more than 7 to 1.
Although the overall number of deaths broke a 1988 record by 1,519, the center said the death rate was actually down because the population was growing. There were 8,603 deaths for every 1 million people, down from 8,638 deaths in 1990 and from 8,713 deaths in 1991.
and the third-leading killer among black women in that age group. It is the second-leading cause of death among white men in that age range and sixth among women.
AIDS is the leading killer of black men ages 25-44
"Provisional data for 1992 suggest that the death rate is continuing to decline," the center said.
The infant mortality rate of 8.9 deaths per 1,000 live births was a record low. The mortality rate for black infants was 17.6 deaths, or more than double the rate of 7.3 deaths among white infants.
Women currently are expected to outlive men by an average of 6.9 years, and white persons are
Life expectancy at birth was 78.9 years for women and 72 years for men. It was 79.6 years for white females; 73.8 for black females; 72.9 for white males and 64.6 for black males.
expected to outlive black persons by an average of 7 years," the center said in its monthly vital-statistics report.
A person who turned 50 in 1991 could expect to live on average to 79.2 years; a person who turned 65 that year could expect to live to 82.4 years.
Life expectancy at birth was up by 0.1 years to its new high of 75.5 years.
Accidental deaths, including auto fatalities, have been declining since 1968.
Dr. Philip R. Lee, the assistant secretary for the department, called the increase in deaths from lung diseases "disturbing, particularly since many of these diseases are linked to smoking."
Health and Human Services Secretary Donna E. Spaldau it said that prevention worked.
The figures were drawn from all death certificates filed in the 50 states and the District of Columbia
