Show 4 Sun Advocate, Price, Utah Saturday, May - WASHINGTON Up untU about a to expose two we used year ago, tyrants with regularity. One was the shah of Iran; the other was Nicaraguas dictator, Anastasio Somoza. Both were overthrown in 1979. All the world knows what has happened to the shah. But Somoza has faded from sight. The State Department has stopped keeping up with him. Indeed, he hasnt been mentioned in the secret cables for months. Somoza is hiding out in Paraguay, a police state run by a sympathetic General dictator, Alfredo Stroessner. Eye witnesses say that the former Nicaraguan strongman has become bloated; he is often drunk and chronically morose. He is described by our sources as a lonely, bitter man. His wife has left him; she prefers Miami. Even his once faithful mistress, who accompanied him to Paraguay, has abandond him. She became fed up with Paraguay when she was shunned by the social set. So she took off in a huff. Most of Somozas relatives have also broken with him. He left many See you RV IVe can of 17, 1980 them financially strapped when he left Nicaragua. He made off with millions, but he has refused to share the loot with his family. His sister, for example, was stuck with huge debts when Somoza fell. But he refused to bail her out. The former dictator has no one but himself for company. He keeps in touch with the world by mail, which is routed through the home of a former Nicaraguan colonel in the Paraguayan capital. Meanwhile, Somoza spends his days drinking and brooding. Worried workers Jimmy Carters The leaders unions has name become a dirty word at the AFL-CI- blame Carters erratic economic policies for the sharp rise in unemployment. The president has been juggling the economic levers to push up prices. He hopes this would discourage spending and slow down the economy. He thought a mild recession would then pull prices back down. But contrary to Carters expectations, the big corporations never 6 surpassed year. Other experts For years, members of the whiskey generation have been urged not to drink and drive. Soon, members of the pot and Pepsi generation will be offered similar advice: Dont smoke marijuana and drive. Studies conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse indicate that persons who have smoked pot within two to three hours prior to driving have a greater chance of becoming involved in an accident than those who do not. Law enforcement officials will soon be able to determine whether a person involved in an accident is under the influence of pot.
