He pointed out that the United Nations Repre- sentative from Iran did not speak of retaliation. Fahmy believes that he majority of ‘moderates do not want the radicals to regain power in Iran. .““The terrible losses to some fam- ilies (one man lost 27 family mem- bers) are tragic human factors that will never end until Iran and Iraq stop fighting. The war is like a cancer. The Arab and Israeli con- flict is also an open wound as is the trouble with the Palestinians. If a settlement isn’t reached World War IIT could start from the Middle East,” Dr. Fahmy continued. The Ayatollah Khomeini’s first , reaction was for his local followers benefit, according to Dr. Fahmy. “Khomeini is no longer in pov'er directing policies,” Fahmy s % “He is a ‘sick man and an old man and sooner or later he will disap- pear. When Dr. Fahmy was in the Mid East he said the countries there were worried about the war’s influ- ences on the masses. They fear the revolution will spread. ‘‘Saudi Arabia is the largest country there and they are in sympathy with the United States. They are using their equipment to warn the Americans. The Shiites are dangerous because they are with the radicals in Iran. “The American people must keep calm and stop making comments such as ‘Kill the Iranians’, etc. These don’t help and too often the media does not help matters either,” Dr. Fahmy explained. Dr. Fahmy doesn’t believe that Iran will retaliate unless it is through radical minorities, who attack in the ‘“‘soft spots’ all over the world such as embassies and air bases. Neither does he believe that they will kill American hos- tages because they are better bar- gaining tools if they are alive. Dr. Fahmy also hopes that the United States and Russia will do their utmost to stop the war in the Mid East. 2 & tues E3duiy0 oy can reg — 717-288-9697 651 Wyoming Ave. Kingston, Pa. 18704 NEA ~ WAR * a sun.dulyly Locations will receive a 20% discourt on eRrtiiic - ister for Sol Jor join us for coke and well ounce the winners!

Lake Township board discusses junk cars The regularly scheduled monthly meeting of the Lake Township Board of Supervisors was held last Saturday, July 9, and the introduc- tion of a junk car ordinance was the main topic of discussion. The proposed ordinance prohibits the presence of junk cars on the private property of Lake Township citizens. All cars on private prop- erty would have to be licensed and inspected. The township police would be called upon to enforce compliance with the ordinance as part of the Building Permit Depart- ment. The majority of the residents that attended Saturdays meeting were opposed to the ordinance. Most felt that they should have the right to keep their property as they wished, and having to dispose of extra automobiles would be an unnessary hardship. “Most of the people that live here are poor. They need a couple extra old cars to get them through if one should break down’’one resident commented. The handful of people at the meeting that support the ordinance are concerned about the area look- ing presentable. There was some discussion about the presence of junk cars in the township affecting property values. “We aren’t asking anyone to get rid of all their cars, just clean it up a little” a resident in support of the ordinance said at the meeting. The Lake Township Supervisors agreed to review the junk car ordinance before the next monthly meeting at which time it will be brought up again for discussion. Watch out for con artists, police say The Pennsylvania State Police, Troop ‘“P”’, Wyoming would like to take this opportunity to warn area residents to be on guard against con artists who begin to operate more frequently in our area with the onset of hot weather. These con men are very adept at bilking unsuspecting citizens out of their money by offering to do out- side repair work which is most often not needed and always of poor quality. Some of the scams to watch out for are; spraying of roofs with sealers, spraying or thinly coating driveways with ‘“‘asphalt patch’, painting of outside walls with infe- rior paint, etc. 7.50% — 7.70% — 6 Months 7.90% — 9 Months 8.00% — 1 Year 8.15% — 1Y2 Years 8.40% — 2 Years 8.55% — 3 Years 8.90% — 5 Years FDIC or FSLIC Insured * Subject to availability. * No commission charged.
