Showers and thunderstorms also extended over southeastern Texas and extreme southwestern Louisiana. As much as 12 to 15 Inches of snow was expected In the Cascade mountains of Washington.

Heavy snow also was expected over parts of California, Nevada and Wyoming. Winter storm watches were posted for today over most of Nevada. In northern California, a winter storm watch was posted for today in the northern Sierra Nevada and for the Shasta and Siskiyou mountains.

Said pointed out that several times in the speech Arafat sought to speak directly to "our friends in Europe and inside America," asking for fairness toward Palestinian demands for self-rule. The PLO's permanent representative to the United Nations, Zedhi Terzi, said Arafat intended to "send a message to Bush from this meeting" that the PLO seeks to chart a new moderate course but, in return, expects international acceptance for a right to statehood.

For the first time, the PLO invited the U.S. and British ambassadors here to attend the parliamentary session, as well as a large contingent from the diplomatic corps, which included the Soviet, Chinese, French and West German envoys. The Reagan administration declined the invitation, while Britain's charge d'affaires, John Illman, attended the meeting. After a chaotic final 48 hours of almost continuous private meetings between PLO factions, the session opened with sloganeering, chants and standing ovations for PLO leaders, including an emotional demonstration for the wife of slain PLO military commander Khalil Wazir, known as Abu Jihad. His assassination in April is believed to have been carried out by Israeli commandos.

A group of 32 Palestinians who have been deported by Israeli authorities for their alleged activities in support of the uprising, capped the opening ceremonies with a chanting procession into the hall. One of the deportees, Hussam Khoder, 27, who was expelled by Israeli authorities to Lebanon on Jan. 13, said he hoped the PNC meeting "would breathe new life into the uprising." George Habash, whose Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine is the leading hard-line faction fighting Arafat's conciliatory line at the session, was greeted with loud applause when he entered the hall. Arafat arrived with Algerian President Chadli Bendjedid and PNC Chairman Abdul Hamid Saaeh. The three men linked their raised arms like political campaigners.

Among those attending the session was the son of late Egyptian president Gamal Abdul Nasser, Khalid Nasser, who is charged in Egypt with participating in plots to assassinate Israeli and American diplomats in the name of a "Nasserite" revolutionary cell in Egypt. The PNC meeting is expected to conclude in the next few days with a declaration of Palestinian independence. PLO officials have applied for a U.S. visa to permit Arafat to travel to New York late this month or early next month to present the PNC proclamations to the U.N. General Assembly and ask for U.N.

Compiled from the Associated More recently, Mulroney has counterattacked, accusing Turner of lying, a charge that is heard infrequently in the normally gentlemanly world of Canadian politics. He also maintains that the election is more about competence than ideology.

"Turner came into the election very low in the polls, with no observable policy and a very poor image," said Anthony Westell, dean of journalism at Carlton University in Ottawa and the author of a book on the last Canadian general election. "Suddenly, he latched onto the trade issue. It worked like magic." Meisel said that everything before the debates seemed to point to a Conservative victory. "The economy was good and the Liberals were in disarray," he said. But the prime minister was caught unprepared by the trade issue.

The pact itself is so complex that most Canadians admit to pollsters that they do not understand it. Many independent experts say that the alarmist claims of the Liberals and New Democrats are excessive. But Mulroney has found it difficult to counter the emotional arguments. "The impact of the trade agreement was heightened by the fact that the prime minister has very low credibility," Meisel said. "People don't trust him.

He can't stop himself from exaggerating." In truth, both of the major candidates for prime minister came into the election with severe image problems.

Westell said Turner's low standing with the voters prior to the debate proved to be a major advantage to him. "An outsider, looking at the debates, would conclude that there was no winner," Westell said. "But if you go into it with a presupposition that one candidate is an idiot and he turns out not to be, he wins by default." Spokesmen for all three parties insist that the debate is not anti-American.

All three say there is no question that the next Canadian government will work very closely with the Bush administration in Washington. "The issue is not anti-Americanism," said Sen. Michael Kirby, chairman of the Liberals' strategy committee. "The issue is a sense that however much Canadians admire the good things in the United States, Canadians are different." But Douglas Fisher, a journalist-politician who served four terms in Parliament in the late 1950s and early 1960s and has been covering Canadian elections since 1935, said, "Of course, it's anti-American, part fear of the Americans and part a superiority complex about the Americans." He said Turner and the New Democrats scored heavily by suggesting that the trade pact would destroy Canada's paternalistic medical system. "The terrors of medicine in the United States have sunk in very deeply, particularly among Canadian women," Fisher said.

Palestinians want control and identity By Daniel Williams Los Angeles Times BATTIR, Israeli-Occupied West Bank Young Arab activists in this West Bank valley village answer as one might expect when asked what they want from the meeting of Palestinian leaders that began this weekend in Algiers. They exude confidence that the Palestine National Council, the parliament in exile of the Palestine Liberation Organization, will declare an independent state for them on the West Bank and Gaza Strip. In so doing, the youths remark, the PLO will have moved to translate the sacrifices of rebellious Palestinians into diplomatic gains and perhaps peace talks with Israel, which occupies their land. But the young Arab men make another, more aggressive point. If the PLO council fails to satisfy them, the youths will continue their battle without the guidance of the organization.

"Enough meetings. The PLO works for us," said Mohammed Awina, who works in a hotel in Jerusalem 5 miles away. "We want to know what we are. We need the world to be told we are Palestinians." Added Yusef Aisa, an employee of an auto parts shop: "We are here. We want a solution and peace.

Every day, one, two, three or more good guys, the flower of our youth, die in our fight against Israel. "If the meeting does not produce anything, Who needs it?" But these Palestinians, hardened by 11 months of "intifada," or uprising, against Israel are flexing their muscles. Their attitudes reflect subsurface tensions between Arabs "inside" Israeli-controlled land and those "outside," especially the PLO leaders. The insiders feel clear about what they want an end to the occupation and have shed blood to get it. They view the outsiders, those who live beyond the bounds of Israeli control, as frozen in their thinking and overly prone to self-defeating internal squabbles.

ties. Alderman Bill Aswad, D-Ward 4, said he is "giving it some thought" but he has not made up his mind. Aswad said he has conducted a poll to help him make a decision but has not obtained the results. On the Republican side, Maggie Green, former executive director of the Sara Holbrook Community Center and former Planning Commission chairwoman, appears to be the leading potential candidate. Green, who has declined to run for mayor in previous elections, has gone from saying that she "has not ruled out politics" earlier this year when she stepped down from the Community Center to now saying that she is "seriously considering" a run.

Ted Riehle, a former Republican al-, derman from Ward 6, had expressed interest in the post. But this week Riehle -said he will not run. Riehle said he is convinced that Green will run and con- -ceded she was a better candidate. "I don't have suicidal tendencies," he said. "If by chance she opted not to run, I would probably regroup and reconsider."

From page 1A fairly close to getting a majority, but maybe not quite." By Canadian tradition, the party winning the largest bloc of seats will form the government, whether it has a majority or not. Unlike most other multi-party parliamentary democracies, Canada has never had a formal coalition in which more than one party shares Cabinet seats. Instead, a minority government must tailor its program to win the acquiescence of enough opposition members to avoid defeat. This year, if Mulroney does not win a clear majority, he will have little choice but to scuttle the free trade pact which would phase out all tariffs and other trade barriers during a five-year period starting Jan.

1 because opposition to it unites the Liberals and New Democrats. The U.S. Congress has already approved the agreement. When Mulroney called the election in early October, he enjoyed a modest lead in the polls. He built that into a comfortable margin essentially by doing nothing while Turner fumbled and the Liberal party feuded internally.

But Turner scored big in the televised debates, claiming that the free-trade agreement would lead to American domination of Canadian society and would somehow substitute American pay-for-service medicine for Canada's popular government health service. He accused Mulroney, who negotiated the agreement, of a "sell-out" of Canadian interests. From page 1A prefer that he did not. "I'd like him not to do that. It calls into question his commitment to the Progressive Coalition." Clavelle said he also plans to run as an independent, but he said he would not run for mayor without the Progressive endorsement.

Bouricius said he is trying to determine if he is "electable." He said, "I'm thinking about it, and I can be talked into running." Whoever the Progressive candidate is, it is likely that he or she will have to survive a three-way race for the post. Sanders' departure has sparked interest from a host of Democrats and Republicans. Aldermanic President Nancy Chioffi, D-Ward 5, is the only one who has made her intentions clear. "I do intend to seek the Democratic nomination for mayor," Chioffi said. Chioffi said she will make an official announcement at the end of the month, at which time she will discuss her reasons and the issues she considers to be priori.
