0 5 JUL 3 1989 4B ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH MONDAY, JULY Rebel Nuns In Hiding, But Will Fight On rr iwy-mm a in NEWARK, N.J. (AP) Three barricaded nuns who fled their monastery in Morris Township after a nearly nine-month standoff are in hiding but will continue their protest against liberalization of their order, a relative said Sunday. One of the Carmelite nuns remained locked in the monastery's infirmary on Sunday, refusing to leave. "They're not giving up," said Anne Ercolano, mother of Sister Maria, one of those who abandoned the monastery early Saturday morning.

"They left because they want to protect their vows," Ercolano said in a telephone interview Sunday from her home in Castleton, N.Y. "They plan on keeping their appeal going as long as it takes to set things straight." The four nuns had been barricaded in the infirmary of the Monastery of them from the order if they did not leave. "That needs to be re-evaluated before the diocese decides the next move," Manning said. "There are regulations within the order forbidding the nuns to leave the monastery for any reason with very few exceptions and those regulations will have to be reviewed, too." Betty Sutton, a laywoman who has served as a spokeswoman for the nuns, said she had not known they were leaving and did not know where they were. "I've noticed a change in their attitude in the last month, as if somebody was in contact with them who they've been listening to," Sutton said.

The nuns had been questioning their own tactics in the past few weeks, after adamantly believing they were doing the right thing, Sutton said. the Most Blessed Mary of Mount Car-mel since Oct. 4, when their protest shattered the calm behind the building's white-stone walls and drew international attention. The Carmelite order teaches solitude and prayer with a strict adherence to separation from the outside world. The rebel nuns say they took refuge in the infirmary because they feared eviction by their mother superior, Prioress Teresa Hewitt, after speaking out against liberalizations she introduced, such as television and sweets.

In the first days of the protest, Hewitt held news conferences from behind iron bars, denouncing the unruly members of her flock for "attempted anarchy." Repeated calls to her telephone number Sunday got only a busy signal. Ercolano said the isolation had taken an emotional and physical toll on the protesters and led them to leave the infirmary for more comfortable surroundings while the fight continues. She refused to say where her daughter and the other nuns had gone. "They're getting fresh air and, for once, they're getting some peace and quiet," Ercolano said. "They don't want to be bothered.

They just want the case to go forward." Lower authorities at the Vatican have twice ordered the nuns to end the protest, but the nuns refused and promised to continue protesting until hearing from the Apostolica Signatura the highest court at the Vatican. Tim Manning, a spokesman for the Paterson Diocese, said the diocese would serve the nuns notice today that proceedings would begin to remove Tip Colorado Fire Spreads; California Blazes Contained AP Miss Illinois were summer homes, and they were uncertain how many people were there Satu.day to be evacuated. No injuries were reported. "They are making real good headway on putting the fire in containment," Keeler said Sunday morning. She said 230 firefighters were on the scene Sunday, plus three bulldozers, 15 fire engines, two helicopters and two air tankers.

The caus? of this blaze was under investigation. weekend. But other fires that have broken out since Wednesday were re-ported contained or near containment. The fire in the Glade Park area broke out Saturday and threatened several more buildings Sunday, said Kelle Keeler, a spokeswoman for the Bureau of Land Management in Grand unction. From 25 to 50 residents were evacuated Sunday morning.

Officials said many of the houses in Glade Park park's giant trees were not threatened, officials said. Firefighters in Colorado battled a 960-acre fire that burned two houses and forced the evacuation of a small community in the Glade Park area, near Grand Junction. Complicating firefighters' efforts was the unseasonably warm weather, with highs Sunday in the 90s. Officials were prepared for more fires in Colorado's tinder-dry high country over the long Fourth of July DENVER (AP) A forest fire that burned two homes and forced the evacuation of a small town in Colorado kept spreading on Sunday, but firefighters in California brought under control a blaze in Riverside County. Elsewhere in California, a fire that burned three acres in Sequoia National Park and 200 adjacent acres of federal wild lands in the Three Rivers area of Tulare County also was brought under control on Sunday.

Tied with the United States at a rating of 31 were Spain and France. The committee, which advocates family planning, said, "It is clear from trends widely evident in the world that rapid growth of a country's population, along with its maldistribution, will impose great strains on existing political, social and economic structures and on relations between nations." labor force and presence or absence of ethnic and language divisions.

Also considered were political freedoms, civil liberties, ethnic or religious conflicts and an estimate of the satisfaction or frustration of youth in a country. Mauritania led the list for instability with a score of 95 out of a possible 100. Rounding out the five most unstable nations were Ethiopia, scoring 87; Zaire, 83; and Burundi and Sudan, 81 each. All five have been through several governments in the last 30 years; all religious conflicts, Japan had one point, while the United States was given 10 of a possible 20. And, in the category on dissatisfaction in youth, unemployment hurt the United States, which scored 18 out of 40 possible points, compared with nine points for Japan.

Countries falling between. Japan and the United States were Norway, 18; Switzerland, 20; Italy, Denmark and Australia, 21 each; Sweden and Belgium, 22 each; West Germany, 23; Venezuela, 24; Costa Rica, 25; Jamaica, 28; the Netherlands, 29; and but Zaire scored the maximum in communal violence, with bitter conflicts under way in several of these countries. On the 100-point scale for instability, Japan accumulated only 13 points and also was near the bottom of the study on population pressures. By comparison, the United States accumulated 31 points in the analysis on instability. Both nations managed a top ranking of 1 point for government changes and political and civil rights.

But in the category of ethnic and WASHINGTON (AP) Population pressures threaten to disrupt political and social conditions in many nations, a new, private study says. It finds Japan to be the world's most stable nation and Mauritania the most unstable. The report, by the Population Crisis Committee, was released Sunday. It put the United States somewhere in the middle, with 16 countries rated as more stable because they did not have the ethnic conflicts and the high rate of unemployment among youths that the United States has. The analysis, by Sharon L.

Camp, Marshall Green and Patricia G. Bar-nett, noted that "rapid population growth, especially when overlaid with sharp ethnic divisions, places enormous strains on political institutions." "Not surprisingly," Green said, "the two most deeply troubled areas of the globe are Africa and the Middle East, with the world's highest growth rates." Among the major population factors considered were growth rates, the movement to urban areas, the age structure of populations, growth of the OBITUARIES FUNERAL NOTICES Thomas McNiff; Retired Official In County Was Active In GOP INDEX HENMI, TOYOKO H.
