the draft declaration’s “hateful language.”

that this conference could have made to
it,” said the statement, which was
released in Durban.
“But following discussions today by
our team in Durban and others who are
working for a successful conference, and
others, I am convinced that it will not be
possible,” the statement added.
Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres
announced in Israel that the Jewish state
was also pulling out of the conference
because of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic
comments.
The Arab League had led a concert
ed effort to single out Israel and blame it
in unacceptable terms for the Israeli-
Palestinian conflict, he said.
Most of the pupils - girls as young as 4
wearing brand-new red uniforms -were
sent home early, in tears, from Holy Cross
Primary School. A fleet of Catholic-run
black taxis ferried them past lines of police
with helmets and shields, while many of
the Protestants shouted curses and insults.
“This looks like Alabama in the ‘6os,”
said Brendan Mailey, leader of a
Catholic parents group that refused to
use a rear entrance and insisted on using
the front door of the school, which lies in
the small Protestant section of Ardoyne.
“It’s beyond my worst nightmare,”
said the Rev. Aidan Troy, a Catholic

The European Union said it would
stay at the conference and endorsed a
new proposal by South Africa to draft
completely new text on the Middle East
Several Jewish delegations pulled out,
according to Shimon Samuels, chairman
of the Jewish caucus.
“The conference turned into a tri
bunal against Israel,” the Israeli Foreign
Ministry said in a separate statement.
“The conference against racism turned
into a racist conference against Israel.”
Soon after the U.S. announcement,
several hundred angry demonstrators
protested outside the conference center,
chanting “Shame, shame, U.S.A.”
Norway and Canada had attempted
priest who was appointed governor of
the school during die summer vacation
break. “The abuse I heard was unbe
lievable. It was one of the most savage
experiences of my life.”
Troy urged Catholic parents to use the
school’s rear entrance Tuesday, an option

to mediate a compromise between the
Arab states and Israel on the confer
ence’s draft declaration. The United
States was part of those talks.
This is the third world conference on
racism, but the first the United States
and Israel have attended. Both countries
boycotted the 1978 and 1983 confer
ences in part because of similar anti-
Israel language.
The draft document recognized with
“deep concern the increase of racist prac
tices of Zionism,” and said Zionism “is
based on racial superiority.” Israel is the
only country mentioned specifically in the
document, which accuses the Jewish state
of “practices of racial discrimination.”
ents rejected during previous confronta
tions in June. Protestants have not chal
lenged Catholics using the rear entrance.
Local Protestants said Monday that
they were responding to Catholic
attacks on their neighborhood, which is
separated from the Catholic part of the
district by high metal fences.

While long-term improvements
remain in the works, merchants brace
for rain storms with short-term flooding
solutions like sand bags. “We have sand
bags but it’s not enough to stop what
happened last year,” said Brad Feren, an
employee at Sal’s Pizza.
Feren said the restaurant still faces
slight flooding after steady rains, includ
ing an incident three weeks ago, when
water came 30 feet into the kitchen area.
Other items to be repaired include a
culvert under the center and extensive
improvements in parking lot drainage
system.
The culvert, one of the main pipes, is
also expected to be completed in the
coming months, but parking lot repairs
have been delayed until after Christmas
to avoid disruption of holiday shopping.

Chapel Hill Town Council member
Bill Strom said the town has already
taken other measures to improve the
shopping center’s situation. “We have
gone downstream of Eastgate and
improved the Elliot Road culvert and
we are using town assets to mitigate the
other problems of Eastgate,” Strom said.
In addition to the culvert on Elliot
Road, the town is also sharing the costs
to fix the storm drainage pipe.
“While it’s not our primary role to
spend money on private property
improvements, we should be involved,
and it’s not beyond our realm to be
involved,” Strom said.
Connor said she hopes Eastgate’s
luck will continue until repairs could be
completed. “I just pray that mother
nature will continue to be kind to
Eastgate this year.”
