Eleven people protesting Libyan leader Moammar Khadafy's govern- ment were injured in the shooting. “I believe the person or persons responsible for the shooting are still inside the bureau and every effort is being made to identify this person,” Hucklesby told the inquest. British authorities insist the shots came through a first-floor window of the building in St. James's Square housing the bureau. Libyan officials at first said the bureau had acted in self- defence but later denied that anyone in the building had fired shots. Citing diplomatic privilege, the Libyans have refused to let British investigators in- side the building to try to as- certain the origin of the gun- fire. Britain on Sunday broke diplomatic relations with Lib- ya and gave the embassy staff a week to leave the country. Three envoys of Khadafy, sent at Britain's request, met early today with Foreign Of- fice Undersecretary Sir John Leahy to prepare the ground- work for the bureau's evac- uation, a Foreign Office spokesman said. Leading the Libyan dele- gation to London was Col.

WORLD COURT HEARINGS Nicaragua says U.S. ‘savage’ THE HAGUE (AP) — Nicaragua charged today that the United States car- ried out “savage, brutal acts” to try to overthrow its leftist Sandinista government. It asked the World Court to order the campaign to stop. In his opening statement at preliminary hearings on Nic- aragua’s case against the United States, Carlos Ar- guello, representing the San- dinista regime, claimed the U.S. government “flagrantly violated international law” by supporting rebel Nicara- guan forces based in neigh- boring Central american na- tions. Nicaragua has asked the International Court of Jus- Schools to keep money surpluses VICTORIA (CP) — The provincial government has decided to allow school dis- tricts to carry into 1985 any money left surplus at the end of this year. In the past, school districts could not automatically use surplus funds..in the next calendar year._With that money not available, and budget cuts due to restraint, some districts were faced with laying off teachers in January — the middie of the school term. Education Minister Jack Heinrich said Tuesday that allowing surplus funds to be used in the next calendar year will assist many school districts in keeping teachers for the full school year. Districts will be able to in- crease their allowable expen- ditures in the new year by the amount of the surplus in the previous year. Heinrich said the change was made at the request of several ‘individual ‘school boards and after discussions with the B.C. School Trus- tees Association. tice to declare that the United States has violated international law by aiding the rebels and by supervising the mining of Nicaraguan ports. It also is seeking the pay ment of preparations for “damages to persons, prop- erty and the Nicaraguan economy,” caused by the al- leged actions of the United States. But on April 9, before Nic- aragua’s petition to the World Court was filed, the U.S. State Department an- nounced it would not recog- nize the court's jurisdiction over Central America for two years. CIA BLAMED The mining is believed to have ceased after the dis- closure that the CIA, with President Reagan's approval, participated in the mining. Arguello, who is Nicar- agua’s ambassador to the Netherlands, urged the court torule that the United States should “immediately cease and desist from all use and threat of force” against Nic- aragua “to prevent further loss of human life and further debasement of Nicaragua's soverign rights.” He said Nicaragua is seek- ing “moral support” of the World Court. Despite the State Depart- ment refusal to recognize Central American cases in the World Court, the United States is expected to argue its side on Thursday. Jeane Kirkpatrick, ambas- sador to the United Nations, and other Reagan adminis- tration officials have said the Sandinistas would exploit the World Court for propaganda. The 15member World Court is empowered to order interim measures when the sovereign rights of a nation are in jeopardy but has no powers of enforcement. HAPPY % CENTURY BARRY!
