in 1957 by his father Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier said a law enforcement source who spoke on condition of anonymity Miller would not confirm or deny a Haiti connection but said the possibility is being investigated The weapons were identified machine guns as AM manufactured under a federal cense by American Research and Development Early versions of the weapon were first marketed by the Goffs

illegal maufacture of machine guns in the metro area" just east of Denver He said the search by eight ATF agents and some Aurora police officers began at 7 am and lasted thfee or four hours "We seized 1069 receivers for submachine guns A receiver by federal definition is a firearm in itself It's the main block part of a submachine gun" Wurm said He said Electronic Metal comProducts a precision-too-

related charges during arraignment in 3rd District Court Friday L Jerry The arraignment was held on Friday rather than Monday as scheduled because of a mistake in the court calendar said defense attorney Brad Rich Miller Preston nior Goff a Idaho native said he had pleaded guilty in London that year to illegal possession of five American ISO rifles lightweight machine guns fitted with laser He was fined $2720 scopes Goff said he had arranged a demonstration of the weapon for Scotland Yard officials and the arrest was a result of a misunderstanding about where the guns were to be kept while in England He kept them in a hotel in Picadilly Rich said he had been told by the court originally that the arraignment would be on Friday and showed up with Hofrnann The arraignment was listed for Monday on the court calendar "Since we had everyone we needed there we decided to go ahead and do it" Rich said Hofrnann is accused of murder the Oct 5 bombing deaths of 31 and Steven Christensen Kathleen Sheets 50 He also is charged with 28 counts of fraud theft by deception and bomb in Farmers say shelving of Upalco unit disastrous SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — When a drought hit eastern Utah's Duchesne County a few years ago farmer Alan White had to send some of his stock to Colorado to feed There's plenty of water in central Utah now but White isn't resting easier That's because the Bureau of Reclamation announced this week it was shelving plans to build the Central Utah Project's Upalco Unit a dam which would have stored water for the dry periods "I remember one year in particular" White said "Out of one hay field I normally get 100 stacks of hay I got 18 that year I had to send cattle out of the counto find try into Colorado or wherever feed for them" They paid their CUP assessments some amounting to $1000 a year or more on the hope that one day federal officials would see fit to build the Upalco project Now with the project shelved indefinitely farmers can do little more than watch that water eddy gently into the Colorado River "California's going to get that water now" said Leo Haueter president of the Moon Lake Water Users Association a CUP member The reservoir would have stored 3000 of water for municipal and indusfor farmers trial use plus 17000 Bureau officials say the current oil glut has left oil shale largely undeveloped Thus the industrial users who would have subsi White survived that dry spell but says he might not be able to get through the next one In a time when farmers are operating on tight budgets and slim profit margins the extra cost of sending cattle out of state would be disastrous "This year being a wet year it's helped a little" White said "If I was in the same circumstances this year as I was during those years it was dry it would have put me clear out of business" Farmers in the area have waited more than two decades for the bureau to build the dam on the Lake Fork and Yellowstone rivers White was among many who Waited patiently while other water projects were built to serve the state's populous Wasatch Front Bureau Here is WASHINGTON how area US Senators and Representatives voted this past week on issues of
