(AP)
-Fire
destroyed
an
old
five-storey
brick
hotel
today
in
a
rundown
section
of
downtowi.
Galveston.
Police
said
they
feared
10
to
12
persons
were
killed
and
said
28
were
unaccounted
for.
At
least
14
persons
were
taken
to
hospital,
three
of
whom
were
in
critical
condition.
Police
Lieut.
John
Jennings
said
there
was
only
one
escape
route
for
the
persons
inside
the
Central
Hotel
and
that
it
was
blocked
by
flames
shortly
after
the
fire
started.
"There
was
no
way
they
could
escape."
The
fire
started
shortly
after
1:30
a.m.
local
time
near
an
entrance
to
the
hotel,
located
about
two
blocks
from
the
docks

.
Jennings
said
a
man
who
once
had
threatened
to
burn
down
the
hotel
was
being
held
for
questioning.
Jennings
said
the
fire
was
so
intense
that
it
melted
and
warped
parking
meters
across
the
street.
When
he
arrived
"men
were
hanging
by
their
fingertips
from
the
windows
and
many
attempted
to
escape
by
leaping
to
the
pavement
below."
The
first
two
bodies
brought
out
of
the
fire
were
those
of
a
13-year-old
boy
and
of
a
40year-old
man,
firemen
said.
Firemen
brought
the
fire
under
control
just
before
dawn.
Only
the
front
wall
remained
standing.
The
fire
also
damaged
a
drugstore
and
a

ENERGY

Carter
mu
by
GARRY
FAIRBAIRN
WASHINGTON
(CP)
-
Can
Jimmy
Carter
get
Americans
to
swallow
the
bitter
med
icine
that
is
necessary
under
a
realistic
energy
conservation
policy?
That
question
may
be
more
important
to
the
long-term
economic
health
of
the
United
States
than
virtually
all
fie
specific
proposals
in
the
energy
policy
he
produced
with
so
much
fanfare.
Richard
Nixon
had
little
success
after
his
unveiling
four
years
ago
of
an
energy
policy
that
was
supposed
to
make
the
United
States
basically
self-sufficient
within
a
decade.
Despite
some
gains,
Nixon's
proposed
program
collapsed
in
the
face
of
public
unwillingness
to
make
sacrifices
and
a
Congress
that
admittedly
was
afraid
to
pass
key
pieces,
of
legislation
imposing
significant
burdens
on
the
public.
One
official
quoted
a
congressman
as
telling
him
.three
years
ago:
"You're
asking
me
to
vote
for
things
that
will
cost
my
constituents
money
and
make
life
less
convenient
and
they
won't
see
any
benefit
from
it
for
the
next
five
elections.
And
I'll
tell
you
something
else:
If
I
do
what
you
want,
the
last
four
of
those
elections
I'll
be
out."
Carter,
however,
has
displayed
a
better
"bedside
manner"
than
Nixon.
While
Nixon
occupied
much
of
his
time
during
the
Watergate
scandals
telling
the
U.S.
public
"I
am
not
a
crook,"
Carter
has
been
working
hard
to
project
an
image
of
a
president
who
is
sincerely
working
for
the
long-term
public
good.
His
specific
task
is
to
build
up
his
credibility
so
that
when
White
House
officials
say
the
coming
energy
crisis
is
not
the
work
of
avaricious
oil
companies
or
Arabs
they
will
be
believed.
Carter
aides
say
bluntly
that
the
president
is

'Woman
killer
a
psycho'
NEW
YORK
(AP)
A
"rambling,
incoherent"
note
left
by
a
gunman
believed
to
have
killed
five
persons
in
the
Bronx
and
Queens
bolsters
police
suspicions
they
are
hunting
a
deranged
woman
hater.
The
handwritten
note,
left
in
the
car
where
a
young
student
and
her
male
friend
were
i
ain
in
the
Bronx
early
Sunday,
was
addressed
to
Capt.
Joseph
Borrelli,
commander
of
the
Queens
homicide
squad.
Queens
was
the
scene
of
two
of
the
five
murders
and
three
other
non-fatal
shootings
since
last
July.
Four
of
the
five
deaths
have
been
young
women.
Although
the
exact
contents
of
the
note
were
not
divulged,
Chief
of
Detectives
John
Keenan
said
there
was
"nothing
in
the
letter
to
indicate
any
reason
for
the
killings."
He
added
that
"this
letter
could
prove
to
be
a
very
important
piece
of
evidence
after
we've
captured
this
madman."
Police
have
linked
the
killings
to
the
same
.44-calibre
pistol,
a
large
weapon
of
the
type
which
gained
fame
in
the
old
West.
Keenan
said
the
gun
probably
was
manufactured
after
1974.
Police
ballistics
experts
say
thousands
of
sucti
guns
ere
available
on

and

CLAIMS
The
pistol
apparently
was
used
to
kill
Valentina
Suriani,
18,
and
fatally
wound
Alexander
Esau,
20,
as
they
sat
a
car
Sunday
near
her
home
in
the
Bronx,
two
blocks
from
the
scene
of
the
killer's
first
known
murder
last
July
29.
The
first
victim,
Donna
Laurie,
18,
was
shot
while
sitting
in
a
parked
car
in
front
of
her
home.
Virginia
Voskerichian,
19,
was
gunned
down
while
walking
near
her
home
in
Forest
Hills,
Queens.
In
January,
a
block
away,
Christine
Freund,26,
of
Ridgewood,
Queens,
was
murdered
with
the
same
.44-calibre
gun
as
she
sat
with
her
boy-friend
in
front
ol
the
Forest
Hills
railway
station.
The
female
victims,
includ
ing
others
who
survived
shootings,
have
resembled
each
other.
Most
had
shoulder-length
brown
hair,
but
one
had
short
hair
and
another's
hair
was
light
brown.
The
non-fatal
shootings
took
place
in
the
Floral
Park
and
Flushing
sections
of
Queens
ard
in
the
Bronx.
Based
on
some
survivor
accounts,
police
artists
have
composed
several
sketches
of
the
killer,
said
to
be
a
young
white
man
about
five-feet-nine

'Cubans
fight
in
Zaire'
by
Associated
Press
Zairean
troops
continued
a
two-pronged
offensive
to
dislodge
rebels
from
mineral-rich
Shaba
province
today.
Meanwhile,
King
Hassan
II
of
Morocco
said
his
expeditionary
force
in
Zaire
has
"absolutely
certain"
proof
that
Cuban
soldiers
are
among
the
invaders.
The
Moroccan
monarch
said
the
interrogation
of
a
prisoner
captured
infighting
westof
the
mining
centre
of
Kolwezi
proved
that
Cubans
and
white
Angolans
are
extensively
employed
in
the
command,
logistic
and
training
structure
of
the
invading
force.
The
Soviet
Union,
Cuba
and
Angola
have
all
denied
direct
involvement
in
the
fighting
in
Zaire
which
they
have
termed
a
popular
uprising.
The
official
Moroccan
news
agency
distributed
the
text
of
the
king's
hour-long
talk
with
French
reporters
on
Monday.
Morocco
sent
a
1,500-man
force
to
Zaire,
the
only
country
to
send
troops
in
response
to
an
appeal
for
help
by
President
Mobutu
Sese
Seko
of
Zaire,
King
Hassan
said
the
Cuban
presence
was
also
evident
"from
the
point
of
view
of
the
logistics,
arms
supplies,
command,
training
and
infiltration
methods"
of
the
invaders.
The
king
avoided
suggesting
the
Soviet
Union
was
directly
involved,
but
he
said
the
invasion
was
part
of
a
large-scale
political
strategy
to
undermine
the
pro-Western
regimes
in
Africa
and
the
Middle
East
particularly
Egypt,
Sudan
and
Saudi
Arabia.
The
Soviet
news
agency
Tass
said
fighting
continued
today
between
the
Moroccan-Zaire
forces
and
the
rebels.
It
quoted
a
communique
from
a
Paris-based
Front
for
the
National
Liberation
of
the
Congo
as
saying
French
servicemen
are
taking
a
direct
role
in
the
fighting.
The
communique
by
the
group
which
says
it
represents
the
rebels
said
the
French
drove
tanks
and
piloted
planes
from
which
napalm
bombs
were
dropped
"on
peaceful
populated
localities."
Tass
said
the
rebels
controlled
a
Belgium-sized
chunk
of
Shaba
province.
France
has
mounted
an
airlift
to
fly
supplies
to
Zaire
and
said
it
has
military
ins
tructors
in
the
central
African
country
to
teach
Zairean
soldiers
how
to
use
French
weaponry.
But
France
has
insisted
none
of
its
soldiers
has
any
combat
role.
Diplomatic
sources
In
Kinshasa
said
today
that
gov-ernmenttroops
have
stabilized
the
front
in
Shaba
and
tried
to
dislodge
rebels
who
invaded
the
province
March
8
from
bases
in
Angola.
Sources
confirmed
that
the
government
launched
a
two-pronged
offensive
during
the
weekend,
One
arm
moved
northwest
from
the
village
of
Kanzenze
while
another
column
moved
to
the
southeast.
Zairean
troops
said
they
drove
the
rebels
back
15
miles
from
Kanzenze,
25
miles
northwest
of
the
copper
centre
of
Kolwezi.
A
government
spokesman
said
the
Zaireans
captured
40
cases
of
arms
and
materiel,
two
prisoners,
$500,000
in
counterfeit
Zairean
notes
and
an
unspecified
amount
of

to

and
legislation,
was
needed
for
a
broad
program
of
energy
conservation.
A
draftof
White
House
proposals
obtained
by
news
media
showed
that
Carter
is
seriously
considering
a
"standby"
gasoline
tax
reaching
as
high
as
50
cents
a
gallon,
taxes
ranging
from
$412
to
$2,500
on
gas-consuming
automobiles
and
price
increases
on
oil
and
natural
gas
in
general.
The
energy
draft
also
pointed
to
mandatory
standards
for
building
insulation
and
appliance
efficiency,
and
measures
to
make
power
plants
and
industries
that
burn
oil
or
gas
switch
to
coal.
Carter
said
his
administration
will
check
data
from
oil
and
natural
gas
companies
"so
that
we
will
know
their
true
production,
supplies,
reserves
and
profits."
In
one
of
the
few
specific
points
of
his
address,
Carter
said
that
"citizens
who
insist
on
driving
large,
unnecessarily
powerful
cars
must
expect
to
pay
more
for
that
luxury."
He
said
domestic
production
has
been
dropping
about
six
per
cent
a
year
while
oil
imports
have
doubled
over
the
last
five
years.
Stricter
measures,
Carter
said,
would
increase
the
cost
of
living,
adding
perhaps
one-half
of
one
per
cent
to
the
rate
of
inflation
in
the
U.S.
Oil
and
gas
producers
have
said
the
recent
shortage
resulted
in
part
from
restrictive
government
policies
and
price
controls
that
kept
them
from
finding
and
producing
enough
oil
and
gas
to
meet
rising
demands.
Russia
demands
damages
TOKYO
(AFP)
The
Soviet
Union
has
demanded
about
$10.1
million
in
compensation
from
Japan
for
what
Moscow
claims
as
Japanese
disclosure
of
classified
information
about
a
Soviet
MiG-25
jet
combat
plane
to
the
West,
a
foreign
ministry
spokesman
said
today.
The
spokesman,
Ken-suke
Yanagiya,
confirmed
a
report
published
earlier
in
the
day
by
the
Mainichi
newspaper,
quoting
unidentified
government
sources
as
saying
that
Soviet
Ambassador
Dmitri
Polyanski
passed
on
the
demand
to
Foreign
Minister
Iichiro
Hatoyama
and
Deputy
Foreign
Minister
Shoj
i
Sato
on
Feb.
1
and
March
8
respectively.
Yanagiya
said
"Japan
is
in
no
position
to
make
such
a
payment
to
the
Soviet
Union"
because
the
Japanese
government
feels
that
Japan's
air
space
was
violated
when
the
plane
was
flown
here
last
September
by
a
defecting
Soviet
air
force
pilot.
