MOSCOW — The Soviet Union will not use force in the Persian Gulf even though it voted for the U.N. resolution allowing military enforcement of an attack by Russia. The prime Minister Edward Sheardwain said yesterday.
Soviets will not use force for blockade
But Shevardnadze said the Soviet Union would not object if the United States and other nations with military vessels in the gulf used force "within the framework of that resolution."
Speaking at a news conference with French Foreign Minister Roland Dumas that was dominated by the Persian Gulf crisis, Shewardnade also denied reports that 193 Soviet military advisers still in Iraq were taking part "in preparing details of military operations."
He said the advisers be brought home soon after their contracts expired and that Soviet women would be released.
In a joint statement, Shevardnadze and Dumas urged to "show realism and common sense and to

55 dependents of U.S. diplomats leave Baghdad, head for Turkey

ANKARA. Turkey — About 55 dependents of U.S. diplomats who were stranded for several days in Baghdad after fleeing Kuwait, left the Iraqi capital yesterday for Turkey, the U.S. Embassy here said.
Embassy spokesperson Carole Lee Heilman said the Americans left Baghdad early morning in a helicopter.
Heileman said the group was expected to arrive at Turkey's Habar border post sometime the afternoon or evening.

From there, they were to be taken by bus to the southern Turkish city of Diyarbakir and flown out of
She said the 55 were all dependents of U.S. personnel who had been stationed in the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait. "An additional 54 or 53 personnel, mostly men, who had been stationed there, have been released and we have not secured their release." Heilman said.
Earlier this week, Iraq gave a Friday deadline for nations to close their embassies in Kuwait, claiming its oil-rich neighbor as part of Iraq territory. Iraq annexed Kuwait six days after its Aug. 2 invasion of the emirate.
But the United States, most European nations and many other countries have refused to close their embassies in Kuwait City, instead reducing personnel there to a minimum.
The U.S. Embassy sent about 100 diplomats and their dependents to Baghdad, where they were stranded when
Iraqi President Saddam Hussein reversed an earlier promise and refused to let them leave.
But Saturday, Iraq's U.S. ambassador said in Washington that the wives and children of the American president had been killed.
The dependents are going to be released," said Mohamed al-Mashat, summoned to the State Department.
"Some of them will be leaving soon." However, he said the diplomats would be treated "just like anybody else," meaning they will be detained. He said that although Iraq and the United States "are on the brink of a catastrophe," Baghdad was not going to use force against the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait.
In all, about 21,000 foreigners have been caught in Iraq and Kuwait, including

The Kansas City Zoo, located 45 minutes from Lawrence in beautiful Swope Park, Missouri, offers an exciting and inexpensive way to enjoy the day. Another Country Club Week is here and KU students will have many fun-filled evenings spent at local parties or bars. This leaves their days open for activity. A visit to the zoo can provide entertainment at a low cost. Admission is $3 for adults and free for children under 12. This is very appealing considering the budgets of most college students.
A visit to the zoo is as close as you can come to visiting a jungle, a forest and a farm all in one day. The 80 acres of land, throughout the Swope Park zoo area, house animals from around the world. The African Veldt is the setting for the safari. This rock quarry, shaped like the continent from which it gets its name, is a natural setting for giraffes, elephants, zebras and other African wildlife.
The Missouri Stream Exhibit is another attraction featuring native invertebrates, fish, amphibians and reptiles of the Missouri Ozarks Region. The open, undisturbed atmosphere of the South American bird house will thrill you. Come see all the splendor of the cat family as you wander a half mile down the Great American Cat Walk. A Wolf pack inhabits two acres
of wooded, rocky area in the zoo. Each of these exhibits allows you to see the animals in their natural habitats.
Animal rides are an enticing feature of the zoo. You will be fascinated as you parade about on an elephant, camel or pony. These rides are offered during specific hours. Touchdown gives visitors hands-on experience feeding and petting various animals. The Discovery Lab, Zoo Nursery and Dairy Barn provide educational demonstrations.
The park is small, so walking is manageable. A convenient alternative, however, is the train. The railroad route covers over one mile and winds through the entire zoo making it possible to view all the animals from a distance. Trainers give guided tours of the zoo throughout the day. These tours benefit those wishing to learn more about the animals.
The zoo is open year round. Hours are 9 to 5 daily. Upcoming events include World Rainforest Week in October. This week focuses attention on the need to save the rainforests. Activities include movies, speakers and learning projects.
Currently, the zoo is on the threshold of a major renovation and expansion project. The zoo, which has been open since 1910, will be

improved with the addition of many exhibits. The zoo is committed to the preservation of endangered species. With all its new and exciting developments, the Kansas City Zoo is
a great place to see. Special discounts and facilities are available for certain organizations and parties. So plan to spend a day at the zoo with that special someone or a herd of friends.
