IUBBOCK Evening, September 24, Ita 1 IIWV Arabians To Continue Boycotts, Prince Says HOUSTON (UPI) One of Saudi Ara- "Wiioi new HOUSTON (UPI) One of bia's top government leaders has warned the Arab nations will retain the use of boycotts as an economic tool and political weapon against Israel. "The Arabs cannot and will not forego the boycott because it is essential to Iheir security, and'it'is of the utmost importance that thts'fact be recognized and not ignored or belittled," foreign affairs minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal said Thursday. Saud said the U.S. should establish its relations with the Arab countries without regard to its impact on U.S.-Israeli relations. "What we ask of the American people is to take stock of their relations with us on your and our own merit," he said.

"And there is no national, social, political or other reason why relations between us should not thrive unless the issue of Israel is injected between us. "Whatever the so-called American 'commitment' to Israel, it cannot be at the expense of the Arab world. It is inherently unjust to ask the Arabs to continue to pay the price for wrongs done to Jews by others. The Arabs shall no longer abide by that injustice." Saud, speaking to 1,400 businessmen, said peace in the world partially would depend on America's readiness to prov- ligutev show low 70 Jrmperafuin ide arms to nations which needed to defend themselves. "It is illogical and self-defeating for some in this country to express concern over the security of the oil reserves and even speculate about a possible military presence with inevitable escalation of comparable Soviet efforts," he said.

"At the same time there is opposition to the sale of carefully considered arms for the maintenance of stability by a ready and self-funding friend with the profound mutual interests which Saudi Arabia has with America in petroleum matters, trade, anticommunism, and international peace and prosperity." Saud said his country would not use an oil boycott as a policy and that his kingdom wanted better relations with the business community in the United States. "We have every intention of strengthening that, providing it is mutually advantageous and no impediments are put in the way of businesses in the United States that would lead to the disruption and restriction of trade between your country and the Arab world," he said. Saud said his father's kingdom's most basic interests and intentions were committed to peace throughout the Middle East. "Certainly the history of the last 30 years make clear there can be no peace where only one side, the expansionist Israelis, are really armed," he said. "Arabs have learned the hard way (hat (hey must protect themselves.

HOOD (UPI) A military court has found an Army officer innocent of raping a woman officer in an Alabama motel room. Five officers Thursday found Col.

Milford L. Marshall innocent of taking a 22- year-old woman, now a 2nd lieutenant, to a motel and raping her. He testified he had sexual relations with tier with her consent. After the verdict was announced Marshall and his wife embraced and cried and he was congratulated by several other other officers in the courtroom. The svoman officer and her husband were not in the court when the verdict was returned.

Marshall said he was embarrassed for himself, his family and the Army because of the incident, but maintained the woman was a willing partner. EL PASO (UPI) A medical association officer Thursday defended a doctor's refusal to treat the 6-year-old daughter of a state legislator who voted against a malpractice law. Dr. William H. Wade, vice president of the El Paso County Medical Association, said the right to reject patients was important for physicians.

"That might sound offhand, as though it violates some medical ethics," Wade said. "But doctors are free to choose whom they will treat as patients. We feel taht's an important right," The specific case involved Rep. Von Coleman, D-E1 Paso, the chairman of the Life and Health subcommittee which during the last session stalled the anti- malpractice bill which doctors wanted the most. When the bill came up because the Senate passed it, Coleman voted against it.

Coleman said he received a certified letter from Dr. James E. Spier telling him that surgery for Coleman's daughter, Kimberly, had been canceled and would not be rescheduled. "The reason he gave was that he could not acquire medical malpractice insurance," Coteman told UPI. Coleman said he "had to believe" that Spier's refusal to operate on Kimberly was based on Coleman's opposition to the malpractice bill, and likely was a form of pressure on him to.

vote for the bill in the next session. "That approach didn't impress me," Coleman said. "Quite the oposite. When it happened, I didn't come back and take it to the press. That would make me as bad as Spier.

I'm just sorry that the doctor felt that his withholding something of value would influence my vote." The surgery was later performed by another El Paso doctor. Spier was not available for comment. Wade said the refusal of Spier to treat Kimberly must be put in the context of the emotional legislative session, and the fact that Spier and two associates were currently fighting a malpractice suit not connected with Coleman and were paying for malpractice insurance. "They were real distressed about the whole situation and they refused to treat his daughter." Wade said. "That is their right.

I don't know that I would have done so in that instance, but they chose to do so and they did it." Hill May Seek Money Spent Under Schnabel AUSTIN (UPI) Attorney General John Hill is considering filing a civil suit to recover state money illegally spent for Senate operations under the administration of Secretary Charles A. Schnabel. Hill made the announcement Thursday after releasing a 20-page report detailing illegal activity, misconduct and abuse of state payrolls and bank accounts uncovered in an investigation of Senate operations. "I've asked Lee Clyburn (an assistant attorney general) to analyze the findings described in the report and to make recommendations to me if such a suit would seem appropriate," Hill told UPI. Lt.

Gov. William P. Hobby said he will give all 31 senators a copy of Hill's report and urge the Senate Administration Committee to consider the attorney general's recommendations for tightening Senate operations. Hobby urged the Senate to fire Schnabe! after he was indicted by the Travis County Grand Jury on charges of theft, forgery and official misconduct. The Senate voted 19-12 to keep Schnabel but delegated many of his former powers to the administration committee.

Schnabel last week pleaded guilty to official misconduct and was sentenced to one year on probation and fined $2,000. He denied personally profitting from any of his activities, however, and said he expects to keep his job as the Senate's top administrator. One recommendation Hill makes in his report calls for steps to prohibit misuse of Senate postage stamps. Hill's report suggests using postage machines to mail Senate correspondence and use of stamps only if they are perforated or marked in some way to make it obvious the stamps are state property. The report says 540 in stamps were used along with an improperly issued payroll check to purchase a camera in 1971.

Hill also recommended steps be taken to prevent loan companies from cashing checks of state employes without written authorization. "In several instances, Schnabel was able to collect funds through telephone calls on the pretext of obtaining them for employes when, in fact, the employes had no knowledge that the money was being obtained," the attorney general said.
