Neo-Nazis seized in Oktoberfest blast
MUNICH, West Germany—Police arrested the leader of an outlawed neo-Nazi group and five of his followers in connection with the bomb attack that killed 12 Oktoberfest revelers Friday night in the worst terrorist attack in West Germany history, officials said yesterday.
Karl-Heinz Hoffmann, 41, leader of the neo-Nazi Wehrsportgruppe Hoffmann, was arrested with five other group members.
The mother was a known internee or orphan, and the dead included an unmarried mother and three West German children. The other widows were West German adults.
the alleged bomber, Gundolf Koehler, a student with a knowledge of explosives, was killed in the blast and probably had both hands near the bomb when it went off, Bavarian Interior Minister Gerold Tandler said in announcing the break in the case.
Five U.S. Air Force personnel were among the 211 people injured in the blast, authorities said.
Gormann and his five followers were arrested Saturday. Four of the group members were caught trying to cross the border to Austria on their way to Yugoslavia in a car convoy, which included six vehicles allegedly destined for the Middle East.
Poles threaten walkout over benefits
WARSAR, Poland—Shipyard workers in Gdansk threatened yesterday to walk off their jobs again unless the government implemented pay increases and other benefits promised in the historic agreement ending their original strike last month.
The Workers Defense Committee said the shipyard workers would stage a one-hour strike Friday to protect the lack of government action on the issue.
The committee, which acts as a clearinghouse for strike information, said the workers would launch a full-scale strike if the protest produced

Poland's Communist Party Central Committee was expected to meet this week to examine the country's economic plight.
The newspaper Zycie Warszawy earlier had questioned the country's ability to pay for the benefits that the government had promised.
The newspaper said wage increases alone would cost $3.5 billion yearly, a effect which could not be supported by higher productivity or greater efficiency.
Afghan youths join rebels to flee draft
ISILAMABAD, Pakistan—Afghan teen-agers from families too poor to send them abroad are joined Molson Rein force rebels rather than be drafted by ISIS.
The official, who has taken refuge in India, said midnight house-to-house searches, raids on schools and universities and roadblock kidnapping have been carried out by the police.
Families too poor to afford emigration either hide youth at home, send them to relatives in the country let them join reinforce forces, said the official. The number of refugees is increasing.
Rebels who recently traveled across the Afghan border to Pakistan's Northwest Frontier Province said many youths aged 12 and 13 fought with them inside Afghanistan. One man said his 10-year-old son was fighting with the rebels in the northern provinces.
The Afghan government has stopped issuing passports to block the drain of students, high-ranking officials, teachers and other professionals from the country.
In another development, the Urdu-language daily Jang reported that an Afghan pilot who had been ordered to attack rebel positions turned his bombs on an important government airport at Kandahar, destroying five jets.
Senate panel to end Billy investigation
WASHINGTON—Senate investigators will offer their conclusions in the Billy Carter case this week, but several members of the subcommittee that handled it have said they are confident.
some of the senators said they thought the evidence in the case clearly indicated that Libya was encouraged to approach the president's brother after the White House asked him to seek Libya's help on behalf of the 52 American hostages in Iran.
The panel, a nine-man subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has spent two months studying the political and financial ties between the two parties.
Several subcommittee members privately said they were not satisfied with all aspects of the investigation, despite weeks of depositions and testimony in both open and closed hearings.
One member still is pondering events that followed a White House meeting Dec. 6 with Ali Hloubert. Libya's tooni diplomat in the United States.
Billy Carter helped set up the session after Rosalymn Carter suggested his friendship with Libyan officials might be useful in trying to gain release of
In late December, Billy Carter received a $20,000 payment from Libya. He later received another $200,000, which he said was an installment on a loan.
Los Angeles in last stage of busing
LOS ANGELES—Security was stepped up during the weekend at high schools and elementary schools scheduled to enter the final stage of the Los Angeles Lakers' draft.
Only 25 schools remain to be added to the mandatory busing plan in the nation's second-largest school district, but officials said they included several schools that had been centers of anti-busing demonstrations in recent days.
School officials said they were taking extra precautions to prevent school buses being bound, as well as at several elementary schools set to enter the plan.
At schools where busing began a week ago, demonstrations were tapering off.
The addition of the eight schools that came into the plan later in the week, plus the '26 schools scheduled to enter today, was expected to push total enrollment in the mandatory program to between 55,000 and 60,000 students.
As of last Monday, enrollment in grades one through nine in the program's 119 schools was 62.2 percent minority and 37.8 white.
Titan II silo might have toxic leak
LITTLE ROCK, Ark.—High levels of toxic chemicals in a well near well-destroyed Titan II missile is silo in Damascus, Ark. suggest the silo might be used to test nuclear weapons.
Dr. Robert Young, the director, said weekend tests by his department showed mitrate concentrations of 16 parts per million at a private well about 10 times higher than the average.
A later test at the same well after heavy rains showed a nitrate level of 9.4 parts per million, he said.
The maximum safe level for nitrates put by the Environmental Protection Agency is 10 parts per million. Tests at two other wells within a mile of the silo showed nitrate concentrations of 1.8 and 2.4 parts per million, Young said.
Nitrates can be particularly harmful to fetuses and young children if ingested in large concentrations. However, the wells tested did not provide drinking water for humans or animals, said EPA Engineering Division director Bruno Kirsch.
Nevertheless, Young said, his department plans to watch the nitrate levels in water samples taken near the site because gradual increases in toxicity could indicate a leak in the silo.
Iranian, Iraqi war drains oil stockpiles
The main question posed to industrialized nations by the week-long war between Iran and Iraq is how long it will be before the war adversely affects the world's oil supplies and another energy crunch sets in.
By United Press International
All indications are that the crunch is imminent.
After a week of fighting, Iran and Iraq appear to have destroyed each others' multi-billion dollar networks of oil refineries, pumping stations, storage tanks and export terminals established during the past century.
The industrialized Western nations temporarily are being spared the worst effects of this destruction by the 100-day war, because they have built up during the past year.
But the loss of Iraq's 2.8 million barrels per day of oil exports and Iran's 700,000 barrels per day effectively wipes out a daily glut of 2.5 million barrels and has soaked the world of market and prices down for the last three months.
THE BURDEN on the world market would be eased slightly if Iraq could resume pumping some of its crude through pipelines across Turkey, Syria and Lebanon to the Mediterranean. But Iranian air strikes and saboteurs have prevented a major oil spill in Iraq's exports, 6 percent of the West's daily consumption, are choked off.
Those countries that depend most heavily on Iraqi and Iranian exports, such as France, Brazil, Japan, West Africa and South Asia, have to make up the shortage either by
The long- and short-term ramifications of this cutoff will be felt in different ways by the industrialized and developing countries.
BUT WESTERN industrialized nations have the advantage of being able to draw on their stockplies for the next few months. Most of them also can rely on the International Energy Agency's oil-sharing scheme. The IEA comprises 19 of the world's largest oil-consuming nations.
buying higher-priced odd lots on the spot market or by securing new long-term contracts with other oil producers.
For developing countries, the pinch will be felt immediately. Many of them are victims of human trafficking.
Analysis
from Iraq, usually on favorable terms.
They have no access to extensive stocks
or to the IEA and can be expected to
be divided into a secure scramble for
replacement crude.
Because the United States has received no oil from Iran and very little from Iraq, it would not be hurt immediately. However, should the IEA be given a share sharing plan into effect, the U.S. would be obligated to share its stocks.
Those OPEC members sympathetic to the West—Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar,mezuela and the United Arab Emirates are quicky increase their production.
GAUGING THE DAMAGE already done, analysts say that if the loss of Iraqi and Iranian production is sustained for much longer, it could be months before the countries will be back at full production.
But Libya, Algeria and Nigeria, OPEC's price radicals, probably will raise short-term prices.
Energy planning lacking House report reveals
WASHINGTON (UPI)—A House panel concluded in a report yesterday that federal and state plans for coping with extreme fuel were either nonexistent or so bad that they would be of little use.
The report by a House Government Operations subcommittee on energy said, "The current worldwide abundance of crude oil and the need to develop better relegated energy contingency planning to a low priority status."
Because the world oil situation is so unstable, the panel said, that attitude is both dangerous and foolish.
Last November, Congress passed legislation designed to speed development of a standby gasoline rationing plan and to encourage their own energy conservation programs for use in an oil shortage.
Each state was required to submit its plan to the Energy Department.
In addition, Congress authorized the president to set mandatory conservation targets for each state if it possesses the potential energy shortage existed.
So far, however, Nebraska is the only state that has submitted a conservation plan to the Energy Department for construction. U.S. have completed emergency plans designed to meet the law, the panel said.
The report said the Energy Department itself had "serious shortcomings" in establishing state gasoline conservation targets.
The subcommittee, headed by Rep. Toby Moffett, D-Conn., found that planning was so bad that the president's powers to set mandatory state targets and plans would be virtually useless as an effective tool to respond to a national energy supply interruption.
