El Salvador troops kill 97 in raid
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador—About 300 troops of the U.S.-backed government of El Salvador raided a leftist guerrilla command post and killed 78 rebels, military spokesman said yesterday.
The spokesman said the attack on the guerrilla command post happened late Saturday. No soldiers were reported killed.
If confirmed, the deaths bring to nearly 800 the number of people killed since the liberation front, a coalition of five Marxist-led guerrilla groups, launched a general offensive against the ruling jungle eight days ago.
The bodies of the rebels, presumably members of the leftist Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front guerrilla group, were dumped in a common cave.
Earlier, the head of the Roman Catholic Church accused the ruling junta, and army leaders of stabbing and killing anti-army insurgents and blamed power in fighting the guerrillas.
The United States resumed "non-lethal" aid to El Salvador Wednesday, including two helicopters and a team of advisers. Another $5 million in additional funds will be provided by the government. Additional $5 million will include four additional helicopters, which will arrive in El Salvador soon, a U.S. Embassy spokesman said.
165,000 Filipinos flee churning floods
MANILA, Philippines—Floodwaters churning nine feet above river banks forced at least 185,000. Filipinos to abandon their homes while at least 60 others drowned, authorities said yesterday.
The flooding, the world in the six southern Philippine provinces in 19 years, was triggered by heavy rainy masses that began Dec. 15. Authorities reported damage at $31 million.
The hardest hit province was Agusan del Sur, about 450 miles south of Manila. In parts of Butum, the provincial capital, only television antennas attached to the rooftops of the few houses still standing jutted above the brown floodwaters.
The mayor of Butun estimated that 95 percent of the city was underwater. He said the bulk of the city's population of 170,000 had been taken to 35 evacuation centers set up in schools. Teachers were helping the Red Cross and other agencies distribute relief supplies.
UAW will vote on labor agreement
DETROIT—The drastically reduced in labor agreement between the United
autobuses company and Corp. undergoes a crucial first test today at
the worker ratification.
The UAW called its 280-member rank-and-file Chrysler Council to vote on the contract, which gives Chrysler 928 million in lifesaving contract rights.
Predictions from union officials at the executive and local levels were that a third of bankruptcies will be as, or only the alternative to a Circular bankruptcy and a possible loss of jobs.
If approved by the council and ultimately ratified by plant-level voting among 65,000 U.S. and Canadian Chrysler workers represented by the UAW, Chrysler's labor costs at the end of the contract in September 1982 would be about 83 an hour less than its domestic competitors.

BEIRUT, Lebanon—Iran yesterday rejected U.N. special envoy Olof Palme's call for a cease-fire in the dispute with Iraq, saying it will not stop fighting until Iraqi troops leave Iranian soil.

Iranian President Abolhassan Bani-Sadr and the speaker of Iran's Parliament, Hojatelelsan Hasimi Rajbani, rejected Palme's call for a cease-fire. After meeting with Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini to brief him on the war and on Palme's mission, Bani-Sadr said, "On the whole, our position is far better before then don't seek my ministry. He also said Iranian needed to be patient and the murder of the military should be boosted.

But Mach stressed the government would discuss the work week. The government believes Poland's economy cannot survive the drop in population and its GDP.
Irish activist recovering from ambush

BELFAST, Northern Ireland—Political activist Bernadette Devlin McAliskey and her husband, Michael, were reported in stable condition yesterday, two days after they were shot in an attack at their home.
Police sources said British paratroopers arrested three men near the police station and admired members of the "Red Hand" and an Kashkari Republican paramilitary group.

Four H-Block campaigners have been killed during the past 18 months by Loyalist extremists.

But lock change was not complete; on the six floors of residential rooms when students returned to school, Allen, Templin resident director, said.
"It itd cause some inconvenience; because the men would take out a lock; and the resident would come back from the room," he said. "But it is better all the way around because some residents had trouble with the old locks."
