"The city is under military occupation at this moment." said a teacher who asked to remain anonymous late Thursday. Sources in the west coast city of Gonaives reported "numerous arrests and several people dead," although it was impossible to determinc how many.

29 injured in Northern Ireland courtroom fight BELFAST. Northern Ireland (AP) Police say 29 people were injured in a courtroom brawl that broke out when an informer was jeered during proceedings for 31 people accused of terrorism linked to the IRA. A press officer at Belfast police headquarters said 17 defendants and 12 police officers were injured. Witnesses said the violence at Crumlin Road Court in Belfast broke out when magistrates ordered police to clear the public gallery after people there and some of the defendants in the dock began jeering police informer Harry Kirkpatrick. Police also announced Thursday they had found six caches of suspected terrorist munitions in County Tyrone, including two tons of homemade explosives.

China plans to station troops in Hong Kong PEKING (AP) China will station troops in Hong Kong after regaining sovereignty over the British colony in 1997. the Foreign Ministry quoted top Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping as saying today. The remarks, which contradicted a Chinese official's carlier stalement that Peking would not base troops in Hong Kong. had an immediate impact in the capitalist port city. Within an hour.

the Hong Kong stock market index slumped 30 points. before rising slightly. WASHINGTON (AP) Salvadoran Defense Minister Vides Casanova "quite possibly" acquiesced in an official coverup of National Guard personnel involvement in the 1980 slayings of four American churchwomen in El Salvador, according to an independent report. The report, prepared for the State Department by retired U.S. District Judge Harold Tyler, says ranking Nationa! Guard officers maintained the coverup for five months but their effort was thwarted when the American Embassy identified the killers through its own investigation.

The study was completed last December but the State Department, concerned that its release might prejudice the judicial process, did not make it public until Thursday after a Salvadoran court convicted five former National Guardsmen for the murders. During his visit here this week, Salvadoran President-elect Jose Napolcon Duarte indicated I he plans to reappoint Vides Casanova to the defense post because of his support for the democratic process in El Salvador. He also expressed doubt that Vides Casanova was involved in any attempt to cover up the investigation into the slayings of the three nuns and one Catholic lay worker. But the report says that Vides Casanova, then head of the National Guard. was "evasive" during interviews with Tyler and his colleagues and "professed a disturbing lack of knowledge" of the case.

Even though he apparently received reports of the investigation, "Vides Casanova attempted to dist- Soviets say U.S. sub reports MOSCOW (UPI) A buildup of Soviet submarines off American shores has diminished security and the Reagan administration is trying to mislead the public by playing down the threat. the Soviet Union says. Soviet Defense Minister Dmitry Ustinov, earlier this week said the increased submarine deployments were among measures the Soviets had taken in response to the NATO Deployment of U.S. cruise and Pershing-2 missiles in Western Europe.

The official news agency Tass Thursday said the United States was playing down the importance of the increased deployments and accused Reagan of "misleading" the people by belittling the importance of Soviet military countermeasures." As a result of the Soviet countermeasures, Tass said, "the security of' the United States has diminished." On Sunday, Ustinov said the submarines posed a threat to the United States that was proportional to the threat created by the U.S. missile deployment in Europe. Administration officials in Washington dismissed the deployments as nothing new. A Pentagon spokesman said the additional Soviet submarines moved into the Atlantic Occan in February and are militarily insignificant. Tass said the removal of cruise and Pershing-2 missiles from Western Europe would eliminate the need for the Soviet co "This would meet the needs of everyone.

including the United States itself," the official news Death toll keeps growing in Hindu-Moslem riots BOMBAY, India (AP) Two people were stabbed to death, a bomb exploded near a police station and about 20 huts were set afire carly today in continuing Hindu-Moslem violence, authorities said. The nine-day death toll reached 210. "The situation suddenly worsened around midnight, and several stabbing incidents were reported," Bombay Police Commissioner J.F. Ribeiro said. A bomb exploded in the street under the police station in Bombay's Pydhoni section but no casualtics were reported, and police said about 20 shacks in the Govandi section of northeast Bombay were set on fire.

Police spokesman P.M. Sawant said the official nine-day death toll reached 210 with the discovery of more decomposed bodies in the city of Bhiwandi, 35 miles northeast of Bombay. So far, he said, 104 people had died in Bhiwandi and the rest in Bombay itself and towns on its northern outskirts. The rioting, which broke out May 17 in Bhiwandi and quickly engulfed other areas in the western 'Indian state of Maharashtra, was the first widespread religious violence ever in Bombay, a major commercial center and port with a population of 8.5 million. The violence was believed triggered by alleged insults to Moslems by the Shiv Sena, a Bombay-based Hindu militant organization.

Its leader purportedly made disparaging remarks against the prophet Mohammed and said Moslems would endanger Indian unity. Moslems make up 11 percent of India's estimated 750 million population. Aquino security plan changed MANILA, Philippines (AP) A captain assigned to give Benigno Aquino "human shield" protection said today his plan failed because the opposition leader was unexpectedly taken on a different route where he was assassinated. The air force captain, Juan Amorsolo, said he was not told of plans to take Aquino down a stairway to the tarmac at Manila's airport rather than through the terminal building where arriving passengers ordinarily go. Amorsolo testified at a hearing into the Aug.

The report says that Vides Casanova appointed a National Guard major to investigate the case. "It seems unlikely," the study says, "that a mid-level officer would have undertaken the obstructive actions he did without the approval or encouragement from someone higher." However, the five guardsmen coverup in were arrested on Vides Casanova's orders in ApriP1981 under U.S.

pressure after officials presented their names to Salvadoran officials, the report says. The report hails the "courageous" effort of American government personnel in exposing coverup and said it is doubtful the perpetrators ever would have been brought to justice without their intervention. In the immediate aftermath of the killings killings, the report says, "the first rewas, of Salvadoran authorities tragically, to conceal the perpetrators from justice" despite promises of a full and complete investigation. The report says evidence available to the United States shows beyond question that one of the five guardsmen, Luis Antonio Colindres Aleman, confessed his involvement to ranking members of the National Guard within days of the murder. Salvadoran officers transferred SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador (AP) Two top rightist military commanders are being assigned to duties abroad, in an apparent gesture of conciliation towards Presidentelect Jose Napolcon Duarte.

Both officers have been linked in published reports to El Salvador's rightist death-squads, which human rights groups blame for most of the 43,000 civilian deaths since the civil war began in 1979. The two have denied the accusations. A military communique Thursday said Col. Nicolas Carranza, director of the Treasury Police, will be defense attache in West Germany and Col.

Administration expected to push aid compromise WASHINGTON (AP) Congress is getting ready for a holiday recess, but the Reagan administration will be busy lobbying with individual legislators to vote for emergency aid to U.S.-backed rebels in Nicaragua.

'The Democrat-controlled House on Thursday approved a proposal to send military aid to the Salvadoran armed forces, but coupled it with a ban on any more spending this fiscal year for Nicaraguan guerrillas. At the White House, deputy press secretary Larry Speakes said the administration wanted both the $62 million in aid for El Salvador and the $21 million approved earlier by the Resup- Senate for of the anti-Sandinista rebels in Nicaragua. Faced with the impasse, Senate Majority Leader Howard I. Baker announced that the Seafter would take no action until returning June 4 from its Memorial Day recess. The White House is expected 10 spend the recess lobbying both House and Senate members in an attempt to arrive at.
