iNoCo .candidates ffavoir veto
By LAURA SUMNER
Staff Writer
N.C. Gov. Jim Martin and other
candidates would like the right to
"just say no."
Veto power for the governor is
quickly becoming an important
campaign issue as support for it
begins to extend outside party lines.
Traditionally, Republican gover
nors supported the veto when they
found it difficult to work with a
strong Democratic General
Assembly.
But in the 1988 races for governor
and lieutenant governor, the veto is
being supported by both Republicans
and Democrats.
Rep. Parks Helms, a Democratic
candidate for lieutenant governor,
supports the veto. Helms argues that

Shadowood implements residency policy
By BILL HILDEBOLT

Shadowood Apartments' maxi
mum residency policy, which will end
the leasing of two-bedroom apart
ments to groups of three or more,
is not an effort to force students to
move out, said Shadowood resident
manager Sally May.
"I have no problems at all with the
students here," May said. "I think
UNC is a high quality school and so
the students we have here are really
top-notch."
May said the policy has been in
effect since August 1987 but has not
been enforced. The enforcement is the

a two-party state, it is increasingly
difficult for governors to get their
policies through a divided General
Assembly.
Martin, a Republican who has
worked with a Democratic legislature
throughout his four years in office,
agrees.
"The governor's power at this point
is one of persuasion only," said Kevin
Brown, Martin's campaign manager.
"The problem is with the entrenched
Democratic power brokers that
comprise leadership of the General
Assembly."
"Martin believes that without the
essential tool of gubernatorial veto,
the system of checks and balances will
never give the executive branch an
equitable role in the legislative
process," Brown said.

ant governor Harold Hardison argues
differently.
"The governor of North Carolina
enjoys tremendous appointment
powers," said Stan Williams, Hardi
son's fund-raising director.
"The governor's real power has
come from leadership the ability
to make things happen through
cooperation," Williams said.
Lt. Gov. Bob Jordan, a Demo
cratic candidate for governor, sup
ports Hardison's view.
"The lack of a gubernatorial veto
makes the governor's job a bit more
difficult, but the governor doesn't
need it to lead," said John Crumpler,
Jordan's campaign manager.
"Jordan supports the veto, but he
will not make it an issue," Crumpler
said.
The Martin campaign says Jordan
affect. But some students say the
number would be large.
UNC junior Bill Moore said he will
move from his Shadowood Apart
ment because of the new policy. "I
like the apartment; it's close to
campus," Moore said. "But I just
can't afford to live here alone."
Moore said he was not aware that
Franklin Realty might allow him to
renew his current lease.
May said that students who need
to live with two or more other people
because of high rent prices should
split into groups of two and move
into smaller units.
"I wouldn't be able to afford (the
rent) if I wasnt graduating," said
the law.
Baker's comments came amid a
report Sunday in The New York
Times that White House officials
have been told by the independent
counsel probing the matter that the
attorney general played "an impor
tant and sustained role" in the $1
billion Iraqi pipeline project, which
never came to fruition.

is not taking a firm stand.
"Jordan says that he wants the
veto, but he also says he is able to
get things done with the General
Assembly," Brown said. "If he can
do both, then why doesn't he get the
veto passed?"
"(The veto issue) is locked into
politics at two levels," said Thad
Beyle, UNC professor of political
science. "There's the separation of
powers question and a political
question."
North Carolina is the only state
without a gubernatorial veto. The last
legislation for the veto was intro
duced in 1967. It was overwhelmingly
defeated in the Senate Constitution
Committee.
"It's perceived as a badge of
courage, something that sets North
Carolina apart," said Beyle.
senior David Arnold.
The students interviewed said
Shadowood management had not
sent them any notice about the policy.
May said that she would not contact
the students until March.
Some students said they were
bothered by rumors surrounding the
policy. Senior Ruth Davis said, "I
heard that (the policy) was because
of the parking problem."
May said that any rumors about
trying to force students to move out
of the apartment complex were false.
She said she was glad students live
in Shadowood and hoped they could
find a way to stay.
A close friend of Meese, E. Robert
Wallach, had a financial interest in
the Iraqi project and sent the attorney
general a memo citing a plan to pay
off a top Israeli official in return for
a guarantee that Israel would not
bomb the pipeline, sources close to
the investigation have confirmed. The
sources spoke on condition of not
being identified.
Baker, appearing on CBS-TV's
"Face the Nation" and in comments
to reporters later, refused to comment
on the details of the investigation,
except to say that independent
counsel James McKay had briefed
him and White House counsel A.B.
Culvahouse on the matter and that
he had informed Reagan.
Queried whether he believed the
controversy would develop into an
investigation on the part of the Iran
contra affair, Baker said, "I see no
evidence of that. IVe had absolutely
no indication of that."

Israeli riot police crack down
on protesters in Jerusalem
From Associated Press reports
JERUSALEM Dozens of
Arabs were hurt in clashes and a
Jewish settler was badly burned in
a car firebombing in the occupied
territories Sunday. In Jerusalem,
riot police fought Arabs near one
of Christianity's holiest shrines.
The army clamped a curfew on
Nablus, the West Bank's largest
city with 100,000 people, after
lengthy street battles Sunday with
masked youths, authorities said.
They said four Palestinians were
wounded by gunfire.
In Jerusalem, near the Church
of the Holy Sepulcher, where
tradition says Jesus was buried,
police fired tear gas to disperse
about 200 protesters. Most of the
demonstrators were women, who
shouted anti-Israeli slogans after
attending a memorial service for
Palestinians killed in seven weeks
of rioting.
According to United Nations
figures, 39 Arabs have been killed
by Israeli gunfire since protests
began Dec. 8. The Palestinians are
demonstrating against the Israeli
occupation of lands seized during
the 1967 Middle East war.
Palestinian Christians, who
tend to have more moderate
political views than their Moslem
Brethren, up to now have played
a minor role in the rioting led by
Islamic fundamentalists and
Palestinian nationalists.
But in a first show of organized
involvement, leaders of various
Christian denominations last Fri
day called for a daylong fast to
express solidarity with the rioters.
Memo links bribe to Meese
JERUSALEM Foreign
Minister Shimon Peres said he was
not offered a bribe by a close friend
of Attorney General Edwin Meese
and "would have thrown the aide
out the window" if he had been,
a newspaper reported Sunday.
Meese, under investigation for
corrupt business practices, has
been linked to the affair by a 1985
memo from his longstanding
friend, E. Robert Wallach.
In the memo to Meese, Wallach,
an American Jewish attorney,
cited a plan to pay off a top
ranking Israeli official in return for
a guarantee that Israel would not
bomb the proposed Iraqi pipeline.
Wallach was acting as a go
between for Iraq, which sought the
pipeline as an alternative export
route because the Persian Gulf was
blocked by Iran. The pipeline was
never built.
Peres said he wrote Meese at
News in Brief
the beginning of 1985 that Israel
would not oppose the building of
the pipeline after discussing the
matter with "the relevant people
and Cabinet ministers."

Stricken vessel missing crew
MANAMA, Bahrain A
Panamanian-flagged freighter was
set ablaze and adrift in the north
ern Persian Gulf on Sunday,
apparently by an Iraqi air strike,
and the whereabouts of its crew
are unknown.
A U.S. missile destroyer, the
Chandler, first spotted the stricken
vessel on radar late Saturday and
sent up a helicopter at first light
to observe it at close hand, a U.S.
military source said.
"The helicopter reported that
the ship was smoking and aban
doned. No crew was located or
observed," said the source, speak
ing on condition of anonymity.
The ship was identified as the
Mare, a Greek-owned cargo
vessel.
Iraq claimed its fighter-bombers
carried out two attacks off the
Iranian coast during a nine-hour
period Sunday. Shipping execu
tives said one of their targets
appeared to have been the Mare.
Damage to the ship appeared
characteristic to that inflicted by
air-launched Exocet missiles used
by Iraqi planes in raids against
Iranian shipping, one gulf-based
shipping executive said.
Some shipping officials specu
lated that the attack may have
been a mistake, others suggested
the Iraqis knew the Mare was
bound for the Iranian port of
Bushehr and thus considered it a
legitimate target.
Officials battle red tide algae
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C.
State health officials are keeping
an eye on red tide algae that has
been spotted in South Carolina
waters, but they hadn't decided
Sunday whether they would
expand their shellfish ban.
Shellfish beds from Cherry
Grove north to the North Carolina
state line were closed on Jan. 22
as a precaution against the red
tide, which has been plaguing the
North Carolina coast since last
October.
. Toxins in the red tide build up
in oysters, clams and scallops and
make people sick when they're
eaten.
