terminal, it was held Saturday that it captured the Al-Bakr terminal after a naval battle in which 11 Trial ships were sunk.
The report that Iraq will be increasing its oil production coincided with an announcement that the United Arab Emirates will reduce their output by 80,000 barrels a day starting Jan. 1, apparently to make way for increased Iraqi production and to conserve their own oil wealth.
In the pre-Syrian Beirut daily As-Saifi quoted sources in Damascus as saying President Hosni Moussa ordered oil supplies in Syria to prepare for accepting oil from Turkey.
The paper said the decision to reopen the pipeline was made after contacts between Iraqi and Syrian officials. The flow of oil is expected to resume in September, according to the agency.
An agreement signed between Syria and Iraq in February 1979 stipulated that Syria would receive 35 cents for each barrel of Iraqi crude that crosses Syria.

Uruguayan vote rejecting constitution
ORUGUAY
MONTEVIDEO  Uruguay — The first official results from yesterday's military website indicated that Uruguayans were rejecting a military government-sponsored constitution that could give the armed forces a permanent share of power in the South American country.
Turnout for the plebiscite, the first election in Uruguay in nine years, was so heavy that officials kept the 6,171 polling stations open two hours longer than planned.
The Gallip Public Opinion Organization of Uruguay said a representative survey of 136 election districts in Montevideo showed opposition to the proposed constitution at 66 percent. Thirty-three percent of those polled favored the constitution.
"The results of today's elections are not important to us," Interior Minister Manuel Nunes said before the results were released, and he warned that favoring the "greatest" party would be detrimental.
"More important is the fact that the plebiscite was held in an atmosphere of peace and security," he said.

The proposed constitution was drawn up during the past year by the military government in closed sessions. It would give the armed forces the power to participate in forming national security policy.

Supreme Court to act on draft laws
WASHINGTON—Supreme Court action on a crucial sexual equality case could end military draft registration or answer some emotional arguments
ruining last July in a nine-year-old case, a special three-judge court in Philadelphia struck down male-only draft registration on grounds it discriminates against men by excluding women.
The high court is expected to act soon on a Vietnam war-era case challenging the male-only draft laws as being sexually discriminatory.
The Philadelphia decision would have forced the government to either stop the present registration program or to include women.
Justice William Brennan, however, suspended it until the Supreme Court decided whether to hear arguments in the case or to uphold the finding.
The all-male high court could have some difficulty sorting out the strictly legal issues in the case from the philosophical questions. Although the actual results were not clear, it showed that the
Opponents of the Equal Rights Amendment have argued that its adoption could mean an equal opportunity for women to die in combat. If women are equally liable to be drafted, they have said, women also could be required to share fully in the dancers of military service.
A Supreme Court ruling striking down the present male-only draft registration system would thrust the issue back on the Congress, which would have to choose between stopping the registration or applying it equally to both sexes.
