Show The Salt LakeTribune, Pickets Greet Aquino In Marcos Territory DANAO, Philippines (UPI) Op- position presidential candidate Cora-zo- n Aquino ventured into the stronghold of a powerful supporter of President Ferdinand Marcos Sunday and was met by picket signs and a cold shoulder. As Aquino campaigned in the cenon television and hammered away at her tral Philippines, Marcos went leadership abilities. Being a leader Is like being a lady, he said in a speech. If you have to tell people you are, you aint. Aquinos top lawyer charged that the nationwide broadcast of Marcos' speech, which was shown five times on the state-ru- n television station, was proof that equal-tim- e broadcasting rules were being ignored. Chief counsel Joker Arroyo said he would present proof of unfair cam- paign practices at a hearing Tuesday before the Commission on Elections. Candidates and parties are enti-tile- d to equal time," Arroyo said. If you give time to one side, you have to give time to the other side. This is not being done. Arroyo said the most blatant violator was the government-rutelevision station, which has given extensive coverage to Marcos campaign speeches and rallies and virtually ignored the Aquino campaign. n He claimed equal-tim- e regulations, patterned after U.S. laws, were also being ignored by the four other stations in Manila. Aquino, attempting to unseat Marcos in the Feb. 7 election, was met by a dozen men carrying picket signs saying We are for Marcos when she attended mass in Danao, on the central island of Cebu, 365 miles south of Manila. Let us not be afraid, God is with us, Aquino told her supporters after attending services. Her arrival in Danao, the fiefdom of Ramon Durano, a former congressman and longtime Marcos ally, contrasted with the tumultuous welcome she received Saturday from more than 200,000 people in Cebu city. As the Aquino motorcade entered Danao, it was met by about 100 men wearing shirts with pro-Marc- KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) Communist rebels in the jungles border are along the holding two Japanese World War II soldiers who didn't find out the war was over until the late 1970s, a news report said Sunday.

The elite Leopards anti-dru- g pod and financed, were lice, sent into the village of Ivargazama in December after thousands of coca leaf farmers rejected a government plan to voluntarily reduce plantations. Tuesday night, thousands of farmers surrounded the Leopards camp and blocked access roads to protest government efforts to cut coca leaf cultivation, said Edgar Merwin, U.S. military adviser to the Leopards. Merwin said Sunday that less than 100 farmers and drug traffickers still manned roadblocks leading to the camp, in the tropical and remote Chapare region of this Andean mountain nation. Growth and sale of coca leaves not earmarked for cocaine production are legal in Bolivia. Cocaine is made from coca leaves, but the leaf itself is used in teas and chewed by farmers much the same way many Americans chew tobacco. Interior Minister Fernando Minister Barthelemy said cocaine may bring as much money each year into this impoverished nation as all other legal exports combined. We oppose the governments program because there is no other crop that earns as much, said Florencio Cadima, 45, a coca leaf farmer and father of six who migrated to Ivargazama region a year ago. In a visit by this reporter to Ivargazama last week, Cadima said coca leaf farming brings in at least 10 times more income than other crops. Like all fathers, my interest is in feeding my children," he said. I will continue to grow coca leaves until there is another crop that brings in as much. The population of the Chapare, the countrys main coca growing region, has doubled to 80,000 in the last three years because of the lucrative nature of coca farming or production of coca paste, the intermediate step between coca leaf and refined cocaine. Merwin said that 80 percent of the residents of the Chapare depend on their livelihood on coca farming and the cocaine business. unit is no welBut the anti-dru- g comed by coca leaf farmers.

The Leopards terrrorize the farmers and force us to commercialize our leaves farther in the interior, said Cadima, minutes after the Leopards discovered a cocaine paste factory near his home. People will always manage to get around the controls, though," Cadima said. He said he will keep on cultivating the coca leaf until a substitute crop can produce as much income. His children, with faces pocked with mosquito bites, played in a dirt courtyard facing a thatched roof dwelling. A refrigerator and bottles of soft drinks were among the few reminders of civilization. U.S. Congressional legislation calls for half of military aid and economic aid to Bolivia to be cut off if coca cultivations were not cut by 10,000 acres by the end of 1985. The U.S. government has provided Bolivia with $64.5 million in aid since August, but it is not known how much will be allocated for 1986, according to a U.S. Embassy official in the capital of La Paz. elude other agreements with Arab neighbors such as Jordan. Peres aides say Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has already conveyed his agreement to Israels basic conditions . Other major points in the agreement, which was read on Israel radio by Cabinet secretary Yossi Beilin, include: During the eight months that it takes both sides to present their cases to the arbitrator, conciliation efforts will also be pursued; Egypt will present Israel with a detailed report about the Oct. 5 shooting deaths of seven Israelis by an Egyptian policeman and discuss damages for the victims families; each side will prevent hostile media attacks on the other.

Unpaid Bill Results in 3 Deaths in Pakistan AnISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) gry shopkeepers fired Sunday on a group of students who allegedly refused to pay a bill, and three people were killed and nine injured, the government said in a press statement. It said university students traveling by train used a halt at the southern city of Larkana to buy food from vendors at the railway station. The students purportedly refused to pay and railway police held one of them for questioning, the statement said. It said students retaliated by seizing two people and holding them on the train, demanding their companions release, and that shopkeepers and residents then opened fire.' Government officials did not know if the three dead were all students or whether the students were armed and returned fire.

Captured communist guerrillas have told security officials the two Japanese look to be in their mid-60- s and apparently in good health. The two were deluded into thinking the war was still going on, the communists were aiding Japan, and security forces were Allied troops, according to the report. Bernama said the Japanese discovered the truth when a purge occurred within the rebels' ranks in the later part of the 1970s. According to intelligence reports, the two then wanted to emerge from the jungle and contact either Malaysian or Thai authorities so they could return to Japan but the rebels refused, said the report.
