JORDAN f P"-; v ; Larrac said. By MICHAEL A. JORDAN Staff Writer The roster for the 1988 Demo cratic presidential primary will probably feature eight candidates, all stressing leadership and experience as well as traditional Democratic values, said spokesmen for the National Democratic Committee. Several polls have predicted a close battle between Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., and former Sen. Gary Hart of Colorado. Gov. Bruce Babbitt of Arizona, Rep. Richard Gephardt, D-Mo., Gov. Michael Dukakis of Massachu setts, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sen. Albert Gore, D-Tenn., and Sen. Paul Simon, D-lll., are likely to figure in the contest as well. Hart, the early front-runner for the nomination after an unsuccessful bid in 1984, declared his candidacy in early April, said his deputy press secretary Dawn Alexander. Hart will advocate educational improvements, environmental pres ervation, economic strength, altera tion of U.S. investment methods to avoid debt, living condition improvements for underprivileged Americans and limitation of nuclear weapons. Biden, a member of the U.S. Senate since 1972, will officially declare his candidacy in early June, said his press secretary Dennis Toner. Toner said BiderTs campaign will stress leadership and experience. Biden is chairman of the Senate Judicial Committee and ranks second on the Senate Foreign Rela tions Committee. Biden raised $1.73 million toward his campaign, more than any other candidate who reported campaign contributions for the first quarter of 1987, Toner said. Rumors that New York Gov.

Speculation surfaced when Cuomo announced the formation of a national political action committee last week, usually the first stage of a presidential campaign. Cuomo is not considering the presidential nomination and formed the PAC as a means of bringing the candidates to New York to partic pate in a series of forums and public debates, Conroy said.

Jackson believes "Reaganomics" caused many U.S. problems and called Reagan a "Robin Hood in reverse,' Watson said. Americans should be wary of "merger mania" sweeping U.S. industry, Watson said. Gephardt, the first Democrat to officially declare his candidacy, has raised about $1.03 million for his campaign, said his press secretary Bill Carrac. Gephardt has proven his leader ship throughout his career of service to the American people, Carrac said. Gephardt acted decisively in imple menting recent tax reform laws. ,11111111 MiM, HAIRLINES! 108 Henderson Street; Chapel Hill, N.C. j 968-4327 Walk in or CS WOLFF mrj 'Ml 11 i tin 3- f -'k -'- Xy , - 9 u Before last month, Simon hati not intended to run, said his Ipress secretary Pamela Huey.

L Nazi execution supervisor deported to Soviet Union From Associated Press reports WASHINGTON - Karl Lin nas, facing a Soviet death sent ence on charges of supervising Nazi concentration camp execu tions, was being deported to the Soviet Union on Monday after the Supreme Court and Justice Department turned down his bids to remain in the United States, government sources said. Linnas fell two votes short in his court effort as the justices refused, 6-3, to extend an order that had blocked deportation. The court's action came on the heels of Justice Department efforts to find some country other than the Soviet Union to which Linnas could be sent. U.S. urges killing lawsuit WASHINGTON The Rea gan administration said Monday the World War II detention of Japanese-Americans in U.S. pri son camps shamed the nation, but it still urged the Supreme Court to kill a lawsuit stemming from the internment. Solicitor General Charles Fried, the administration's top ranking courtroom lawyer, argued that "ordinary rules of law" should apply to the lawsuit "no matter how much balm we would like to apply to the wound." He said a 1983 suit, which seeks compensation for property losses suffered by those imprisoned, was filed in the wrong federal court and was filed too late. Soviet labor camps criticized MOSCOW A Soviet paper, the Literary Gazette, has pub lished a letter from a former prisoner criticizing Soviet labor camps and asking that more information about them be released.

Publication of the letter appears to be part of a review of the criminal justice system. Soviet media have published examples of miscarriages of justice over the past year, and some high-ranking officials have called for better protection of citizens against false arrest and imprisonment. Tariffs not protectionist act OISO, Japan New U.S. tariffs on some Japanese products should not affect the overall relationship between the two allies, American trade represen tative Clayton Yeutter said Monday. He said imposition of the duties last Saturday was not a protec tionist act, and the U.S. trade deficit will not be eliminated by solving individual issues, but he urged Japan to increase imports and drop quotas on foreign goods "as a matter of principle." The United States wants Japan to stimulate its domestic economy so the market for both foreign and Japanese products will expand.
