Japanese hijackers free hostages. surrender
ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) - Five Japanese blackiers who took a jellie on a 5,000-mile, six-day odyssey of terror over Asia and North Africa freed their last 19 hostages, including one American, yesterday and surrendered to Algerian authorities.
The terrorists stepped off the Japan Air Lines DC8 and were driven away less than
two hours after the plane landed at Alger's Maison Blanche airport. The gunmen ended their long holdout after negotiations with Algerian officials.
"They came out with their hands up," said an airline sleookwoman.
With them were six other terrorists, two of them women, who had been freed from

Hostages tired but happy after hijackers surrender
Exhausted but happy hostages who had been held captive for up to six days in a hijacked Japan Air Lines jettier yesterday released in cities in release thousands of miles apart.
Many criticized airport security arrangements which allowed the hijackers to board.
The hostages held by five heavily armed Japanese Red Army terrorists who hijacked the JAL DC-8 Wednesday on a Paris-to Tokyo flight shortly after takeoff from Bombayah were free at stops in Bangladesh. Kuwait, Syria and Algeria.
The last 19 hostages were released Monday in Aligiers, where the hijackers finally left the plane. They tasted their freedom at the airport with orange juice.
Thomas Phalen, a State Department employee who works as a truce-keeper in the middle East, and JAL Cap. Sakuraba Kunetua, who plotted the relief plane from Algeria, both said the hikers' behavior away the hostages had been "correct."
WILLIAM D. McLEAN, 46, a New Mexico native now working in San Francisco, said after his release in Damascus, "Of course I'm very relieved it's over. I see no justification for terrorism in any way shape or form."
"feel okay, I guess," McLean said. "I'm very tired though, it been a long haul."
Eric Stephen Weiss, 30, a New York City native who also works in San Francisco, said he and most of the passengers believed Mr. Karachi, a police officer in Karachi, Pakistan, "where security was nil."
" only two of the six toiletes on the DC-8 were working," declared Tetsuo Hagiwara, 25, a Japanese tour leader. "You can imagine what that was like. We had air conditioning, but not enough. We had food, we had enough. We had water, but again, not enough.
"I'm real scared," he said. "I feel like renting a boat, a rowboat and going home. It may take me a couple of days to rest here to get the courage up to go back on the plane. It's going to be a long time before I leave home or get on a plane again."
'THE HIJACKERS weren't really hostile. However, you can't say they were either friendly either. They were sort of carrying out a job—as friendly as a blazer can be.
"I hated it. They were crazy people. Everyone thought so."
Sixteen of those released in Dacca were flown to Bangkok Monday and JAL officials said 97 other hostages released in Dacca on Friday and the rescue plane in Takoy early Tuesday.
WICHITA (AP)—Picket lines were thrown up at the Boeing Co. plant in Wichita, Kan., at 12:01 this morning, several hours after a majority of the aircraft company's 24,000 production and delivery workers voted to strike over a contract impasse.

About 150 persons were picketing at the plant's 49 gates, and union officials said they

expected at least 50 pickets on every gate by this morning.
Although the late shift was not to leave work until 1 a.m., employees were pouring out of the Wichita plant's buildings shortly after midnight to head home.
Al Schultz, coordinator of the negotiations for the union, said Monday that an early count of union members showed 12,905 voting to strike and 1,958 opposed to it.
He branded as "absolutely inadequate" Boeing's proposal on wages, pensions, job classifications and medical programs and said union members were "furious."
WASHINGTON (UPI—Ten congressmen introduced a resolution yesterday calling for the impeachment of U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young.
Ten congressmen back resolution to impeach Ambassador Young
Rep. Larry McDonald, D-GA., who announced the action at a news conference, said Young has made racist remarks, and himself with world revolutionary forces.
The resolution cites 21 points against Young, including his failure to oppose admission of Vietnam to the United Nations, calling former Presidents Gerald Ford and Richard Nixon racists and his support for some Communist leaders.
The resolution said, "For the foregoing reasons, we the undersigned members of Congress manifest our deep concern with the situation in which he has appointed bassador Andrew Young and hereby convey our lack of confidence in his fitness to continue in the position to which he has been appointed, and call for his immediate imposition under section 4, of the United States Constitution."
MEDONALD SAID Young committed the high crimes and misdemeanors required by the Constitution to bring articles of impeachment. The House must vote to impeach and the Senate vote to try the impeachment.
"His actions as ambassador to the United Nations are consistent with his statement in 1970 when asked if he would support the destruction of western civilization if he felt that the rest of the world would be healed and said he responded, I probably would." "I."
Other signers were Reps. Steven Symms and George Hansen, both rRIdaho; John Ashbrook, R-Ohio; Dan Marriott, R-Uatah; Robert Doran, R-Calf; Prille Crane, R-III.; Robert Stump, D-Ariz.; Robert Badham, R-Calf; and J罗卢resslet, R-Calf.
McDonald said a more formal document would have to be drafted by a house committee after hearings, the document filed Monday was intended as an impeachment resolution. He said he discussed the format with Chairman Rodino of those Judiciary Committees who presided over the Nixon impeachment proceeding.

was not known, nor was it clear whether $6 million ransom they had extorted from the Japanese government last week would be returned.
Flight engineer Matsai Katsawa said he was satisfiied that the hijacking has ended
He said he asked 21 or 22 members of Congress to sign the resolution, but only 10 would.
IT WAS BELIEVED the terrorists, armed with automatic weapons, grenades and plastic explosives, ordered the jettier to attack a city, leaving refuge from this country's leftist government.
"For us Japanese, human life is the most sacred thing on this earth," he was quoted as saying by the official Algerian news agency.
It was not immediately determined whether the Algerian government had granted aid to the hijackers—members of the French-led Japanese Red Army—and their six "comrades."

Algerian security forces were reinforced around the airport, about 12 miles southeast of Aligiers, before the red and white jelitter touched down Monday. It remained isolated at the end of the runway when negotiations began.
