Guerrilla surrenders to Aquino; Philippine army on combat alert
DAVAO, Philippines — A rebel leader surrendered yesterday to President Corazon Aquino, but the army stayed on full combat alert for attacks by the communist New People's Army on the 18th anniversary of its founding.
Guerrilla leader Froiland Maureau, 27, deputy secretary-general of the rebel group in the Mindanao province of Davao Del Norte, surrendered because of internal contradictions in the rebel leadership, said Teodoro Benigno, Anuino's press secretary.
Aquino administered an oath of allegiance to Maureal in Davao, 600 miles south of Manila. Maureal is the highest ranking member of the insurgency to surrender since Aquino unveiled an氨雄 program last month to neutralize the 24,000-member NPA, Benigno said.
Maureal, a rebel since 1977, was a representative on a provincial cease-fire committee during the 60-day nationwide truce that ended the war. Nearly people have been killed since fighting resumed.
The entire armed forces were placed on full combat alert Saturday against rebel attacks timed to celebrate the NPA's anniversary.
No rebel attacks were reported yesterday, but the state-run news agency said seven troops at an outpost in the northern village of Bitanan were killed and three wounded in a strike by 150 rebels Saturday night.
Israeli official resigns over Pollard affair
JERUSALEM — Col. Aviem Sella, a key figure in the Jonathan Pollard espionage scandal that shook U.S.-Israelia relations, resigned from his prestigious air force post because of the spy affair, Israeli radio said yesterday.
The state owned radio said that Sella, 43, resigned as commander of Israel's second largest air base "because he did not want to be a burden to either the country or the Israeli Defense Forces."
Israeli radio said Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin. Gen. Moshe Levy, the military chief of staff; and Gen. Amap Lazipot, air force commander; accepted Sella's resignation.
According to the radio, Sella will continue to serve in an unspecified capacity in the air force.
In Washington, Defense Department spokesman Lt. Col. Drownieble said the department had no comment on the resignation of Sella, although he said that the department's activities at the base that Sella commanded because of his involvement with the Pollard case.
Sella was a possible candidate for air force commander until the Pollard affair surfaced, revealing Sella's role as one of Pollard's chief "handlers" during the 17 months Pollard sold U.S. military secrets to Israel.
Sella reportedly was a member of Lekem, a former Israeli intelligence-gathering unit, run by former spymaster Rafael Eitan, another key figure in the Pollard spy scandal.
Arabs likely to recognize Israel, Carter says
TEL AVIV, Israel — Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter said yesterday that a dramatic change in the attitude of Arab leaders toward Israel in the last year has made a comprehensive Middle East peace agreement possible.
Carter said he had no doubt Jordan, Lebanon and the Palestinians on the West Bank and in the Gaza Strip were ready to recognize Israel and negotiate directly for peace with their long-time enemy.
"Syrian President Hafez Assad is now expressing for the first time his willingness to participate in an international conference to recognize Israel by direct negotiations with the Israeli," he said by satellite on NBC's "Meet the Press."
He said he did not speak with Yassar Arafat, the leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization. But from conversations with Arab leaders, Carter said he thought that Arafat was prepared to recognize Israel.

Contributor knew North controlled funds
WASHINGTON - At least one wealthy contributor who gave money to a private contra aid effort believed that Li, Col. Oliver North, then a White House aide, was controlling how the funds were spent, documents show.
A note from the contributor to an employee of conservative fundraiser Carl Channell included a $100.00 check and said, "Please have Ollie contact me to let me know what he's going to do with it."
The note, dated May 27,1986.
was among documents obtained from Channel's offices by Jane McLaughlin, who worked as a fund-raiser for Channel.
The documents indicate a more active role by North in Channell's operation than previously acknowledged by Channell, whose activities are under scrutiny by the independent counsel.
The documents show that North met individually with contributors and wrote letters to thank them and encourage support.
