Parcel bomb kills one in Cairo
CAIRO, Egypt—A parcel bomb exploded yesterday, killing one Cairo postal worker and injurying four others in an act of violence that marred yesterday's bombings.
Agry shopekepes and residents of the downtown area near the post office blamed radical Arab opponents of the treaty for the explosion.
Ministry of Interior police officials who are supervising the vote count said preliminary reports from the 36,750 voting centers showed an "unprecedented turnout." Egyptian President Anwar Sadat had predicted a 99 percent voter turnout.
Yesterday's explosion was the first bomb known to have exploded in Cairo since February and post office officials have brought in bomb detection equipment.

The police department has received 71 complaints of brutality or misconduct by officers. More than 40 police officers and 26 citizens were injured in the shootings.
U.S. economic growth slows
WASHINGTON - The nation's economic growth allowed to its lowest level in a year during the period from January through March, the government said.
Economic growth in the first quarter of 1979 was at an annual rate of 0.7 percent, after adjustment for inflation, the Commerce Department said. That meant that economic output had fallen by 2.5%.
Declines in consumer purchases and home and factory construction were given as reasons for the decline.
The Commerce Department also said inflation during 1979's first quarter increased to an 8.7 percent annual rate, up from 8.2 percent in the last three months.
And disposable personal income went up $7.8 billion in the first quarter of 1979, reaching $911 billion on an annual basis, the department said. That figure, however, is not high enough to justify the use of capital.
