Group protests research, poisons candy in Britain
LONDON - Shopkeepers across Britain began checking more than three million Mars chocolate bars yesterday because militant animal lovers said they had been testing the robot's best-selling candy with rat poison to protest medical experiments on monkeys.
Scotland Yard said an investigation had been launched and at least seven bars containing warning notes had been found. At least three people ate suspect Mars bars Saturday but none suffered any ill effects, it said.
Drug dealers kill 17 in Peru
LIMA, Peru — Cocaine traffickers burst into a Jungle campsite and opened fire with automatic weapons, killing at least 17 people employed by a program financed by the United States to destroy coca crops, police said yesterday.
The Animal Liberation Front said it had spiked the candy bars to protest medical experiments on monkeys that the Mars company helped to finance.
All those killed in the attack early Saturday were identified as Peruvian employees of the Coca Reduction Organization, part of the $30 million program the United States is financing. Coca is the prime ingredient in cocaine.

Country fears U.S. desire for war
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — Nicaragua's foreign minister said yesterday his nation wanted "a good relationship" with the United States, but feared President Reagan was looking for the right moment "to topple the government of Nicaragua."
Miguel d'Escoto, saying the United States "has been waging a war against Nicaragua for almost four years," charged the administration was waging a campaign to soften up U.S. public opinion for possible war in Central America.
He cited recent "official hysteria" in Washington over a purported shipment of MiG jet fighter-bombers to the Sandinista government and "all kinds of stepped-up muscle-flexing exercises in Honduras, in different parts of the Caribbean" and at Fort Bragg and Fort Campbell.
"ALL OF THESE things lead us to believe they have now, after the re-election of the president, come to the conclusion that they might look for the precise moment, for the opportunity, to do what Mr. Reagan has always wanted to do, which is to topple the government of Nicaragua and to reverse our popular revolution." D'Escoto said.
D'Escolto, interviewed on CBS's "Face the Nation" from Managua, responded to directly to a question on whether Soviet ships approach Nicaragua are carrying armor.
He said half of the cargo of a Soviet ship that "just came a couple of days ago" was "paper — newsprint," with "tractors, wire and medicine" making up the balance.
Pressed on the arms issue, he said, "There may be臂 and there may not be ... What I can tell you for sure is there is nothing we don't have a right to obtain."
IF THE REAGAN administration really wants to see fewer weapons coming into Nicaragua, d'Escoto said, it should "stop attacking our country."
D Escoto was reluctant to characterize a meeting scheduled in Mexico tomorrow between U.S. and Nicaraguan officials as "peace talks," but said, "We want to have a good relationship with the United States, if they will only recognize our right to self-determination."
Also appearing on the CBS program were Rep. Henry Hydre, R-III., and Michael Barnes, D-Md., both members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
But he repated the administration's alarm over Soviet shipments to the Sandinistas.
Hyde said the latest "war scarcity came from Nicaragua, and declared, 'The United States must be in control.'"
Cult killings at Jonestown remembered
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — The daughter of the late Rep. Leo Ryan, slain by the People's Temple cult six years ago, led a memorial service yesterday commemorating the tragedy and saying, "We cannot afford to forget what happened in Jonestown."
"We are here to make sure something like this never happens again." Patricia Ryan told about 25 people at the service outside the Capitol. "And we are also here because it can."
The deaths of more than 900 residents of the People's Temple colony run by the Rev. Jim Jones occurred on Nov. 19, 1978, at the jungle settlement of Jonestown, Guana.
The mass suicides followed the tatal shooting by Jones' followers of Ryan, a congressman from San Francisco, and four other Americans who had inspected conditions at the sect's jungle camp, originally located in San Francisco.
Jones ordered his followers to drink deadly poison and then killed himself.
"Today, people are involved more than ever with cults. These groups taisely promise easy answers to the complex problems of life." Ryan said.
She said her father knew the people of Jonestown were "brainwashed" and were only pretending to be happy
Rep. Ryan was murdered at the Port Kaituna Airport near Jonestown as he and his group prepared to return home.
Larry Layton was accused of conspiracy to murder a congressman, aiding in the murder of a congressman, conspiracy to murder an internationally protected person and aiding in the attempted murder of an internationally protected person.
The last two charges refer to the wounding of a member of Ryan's party, Richard Dwyer, deputy chief of mission for the United States in Guyana.
A district judge ruled that the federal law against murdering a congressman has worldwide effect when the person accused of the crime is an American citizen.
But Layton, now 37, had a hung jury in his U.S. District Court trial, and has been free since then while various issues, principally involving admissibility of evidence, have been on appeal. It is expected a second trial will begin early next year.
