But the flight of Guatemalans from border towns and villages has stopped and business was reported back to normal in the frontier crossing point of Melchor, officials said. Belizian Prime Minister George Price's government said both Belize and Britain were still interested in negotiating a solution, but Guatemalan President Kjell Eugenio Laugerud said his country would not negotiate as long as British troops are deployed.

Concentration camp guard free afterxjetting shorter sentence FRANKFURT, West Germany (AP) A former Nazi concentration camp guard quoted by a trial witness as boasting he could kill a man with 12 whiplashes got a 15-year sentence Friday, but will not be jailed because he already has served more than that. The trial dragged through 210 court sessions over three years. In a verdict handed down Friday, Judge Volker Schneider said Hubert Gomerski, 65, would remain free because he served 22 years of a previous-life sentence on the same charges before being released in 1972 for retrial.

A i In his final summary, Argentina ISSUeS Schneider said Gomerski "acted Sears witn particularly notewortny brutality" in helping to torture, gas and shoot at least 150,000 inmates of Sobibor extermination camp in Nazi-occupied Poland in 1942-43. Most of the victims were Jews. The judge noted one witness testified the former sergeant in the SS (Nazi elite guard) Death's Head Regiment "bragged he could kill a person with 12 lashes of his whip." Gomerski was convicted in 1950 of war crimes at Sobibor and sentenced to life imprisonment. His appeal for retrial was granted in 1972 after an appeals court ruled he was convicted on the basis of partially false, incomplete testimony. Some of the proceedings were conducted outside Germany to hear testimony from former Sobibor inmates in Israel, the Soviet Union, the United States, Poland and warrant for ex-Nazi BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) A federal judge issued an arrest warrant Friday for Eduard Roschmann, an alleged Nazi war criminal whose extradition was requested by the West German government.

Judge Guillermo Rivarola issued the warrant a day after the military government turned the case over to him, court spokesmen said. They said the warrant was a formality, since they are aware of reports Roschmann no longer is in Argentina. "We just have to comply with the rules," one said. The Roschmann case became public last Monday when the gover-ment issued a communique saying it had accepted Bonn's extradition request. A second communique the next day said the government had not accepted the request, but was considering it On Thursday, the government turned the request over to the judge.

Witnesses said Gomerski was among members of the camp staff especially feared because of their cruelty.
