Artist Dali to remain at hospital
Dali Officials think Khadafy seeks better ties to U.S.

BARCELONA, Spain — Salvador Dali's condition worsened slightly yesterday, and doctors said respiratory problems and a fever would keep the 80-year-old artist in the intensive care unit for the immediate future.
Doan's personal physician, mean-
white, said in an interview that the
80-year-old surrealist painter was
"psychopathic."
Dali was placed in intensive care at El Pilar Clinic in Barcelona last Friday following a six-hour skin graft operation Dali had been seriously burned in a bedroom fire Aug. 30.
Dali's personal doctor, in an interview published yesterday, defended himself against allegations that the artist had received inadequate care. He pained a nightmarish picture of Dali's behavior.
Dr. Juan Garcia San Miguel said in the interview with the Madrid newspaper Diario 16 that Dali, bedridden at his 12th century castle north of Barcelona, often would insult them and insult in their faces.
He said Dali had been under psychiatric care until recently.
"Dali has a psychopathic personality with clear characteristics of hysteria and has suffered very profound depressions," he said.

TRIPOLI, Libya — A surprising consensus has emerged among diplomats in Libya's capital that Col. Moammar Khadify is seeking better relations with the West — especially the United States.
In this context, the inhabitants of Tripoli's embassy row say, the 42-year-old strongman's beidering him in Morocco, a U.S. mails sense.
"Many of his strident statements attacking President Reagan are just for domestic consumption," one senior diplomat said.
"Khalady has been looking for dialogue with the United States regularly through various countries, including moderate Arab nations such as Kuwait, and through Austria because of his personal friendship
with (former Chancellor) Bruno Kreisky. Now he hopes to use Morocco to reach Washington."
**LIBNY A LEGISLATURE. THE People's Congress, and 99.97 percent of the Moroccan who voted in a referendum ratified the union last week. Under the agreement both states retain sovereignty but subscribe to a mutual defense pact and will have a rotating presidency.
In speeches last weekmarking his 15 years in power, Khadify threatened to "vanquish" the United States and what he called its "new Nazism." But diplomats familiar with the Arab world said such drum-beating had to be read upside down.
"It's a way of acting," one said
"He thinks the more aggressive he behaves the more you will be inclined to come to terms with him."
The diplomats said Khadafy is
"I he tears Reagan's stubbornness could do him serious harm," one said.
aware of his military weakness in the face of the United States.
OILMEN IN TRIPOLI provided another reason Khadiya may want to smooth relations with Washington. They said Libyan oil wells have deteriorated for lack of adequate maintenance since Exxon withdrew from Libya in 1981 and Mobil pulled out in 1982.
Khadiya knows that the American technicians who drilled the wells originally would be the best people to restore them to full productivity, the
Morocco's King Hassan II has made few public pronouncements on the controversial treaty. But he is known to hope the treaty will help end his debilitating war with Polisario Front guerrillas seeking to
detach the Western Sahara from his kingdom.
The union almost certainly means that Libya has agreed to stop its huge supplies of arms and money to Polisario. That could deal a mortal blow to the Front, which is believed to have received more support from Libya recently than from its traditional backer, Algeria.
HASSAN'S ARMY MADE headway against Polisario recently after completing a sophisticated U.S.-equipped defense line along a vulnerable portion of its frontier with Algeria. Polisario fighters now hold the long way through Mauritania to enter Moroccan-held territory.
Morocco also stands to gain from the treaty financially because Moroccan will be able to work in Libya without permits.
but the treaty poses some risks for
Hassan. State Department officials have warned that military aid to Morocco — worth $56 million this year — would be cut off unless there were cast-iron guarantees that U.S. military equipment would not fall into Libyan hands.
As for Libya, most of its gains from the accord are diplomatic. Khadifa needs to bolster his deteriorating position in northern Libya and 5,000 Libyan troops are supporting rebel leader Geokoumi Wede-
THE LIBAN LEADER is thought to be anxious to deflect criticism of his military adventure expected at November's summit of the Organization for African Unity in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Since Hassan is influential with numerous African states, the union treaty would probably help water down such criticism.
Growing world turmoil threatens U.N. role, leader says

UNITED NATIONS — The United Nations has managed to stave off a world war in its four decades as an international referee, but growing political violence is threatening its mission to keep the peace, Secretary General Javier Perez de Cuellar warned yesterday.
"We have now had nearly 40 years of experience, 40 years of change, and, for all the conflict of our time, 40 years without a global war."
rerez de Cuellar said in his annual report to the 39th session of the General Assembly, which opens next week.
THE U.N. CHIEF bernamed a steady increase in various forms of politically motivated violence, including hijacking, kidnapping, car bombing and assassination.
"Our society is, in some sectors, becoming an armed camp," he said. "Order, elvity and even public life are threatened by threat in many parts of the world."
appalling,” Perez de Cuellar said. “It is not enough to condemn or try to control such acts of violence. Attention has also to be focused on ways of dealing with the root causes of these phenomena.”
"The toll of innocent victims is
Peace keeping efforts are impelled, he said, largely because one person's freedom fighter is another one's terrorist, one's champion of human rights is another's subordinate one's plaintiff is another's criminal.
IN THE PERUVIAN diplomat's third annual report as secretary-general, he said short-term national interest and opportunism are the common interest in world affairs as well as in the United Nations.
"This is the world we have to deal with."
"There has been a retreat from internationalism and multilateralism at a time when actual developments both in relation to China and the economy would seem to demand their strengthening," he said.
