Britons favor abdication LONDON (Reuter) A majority of Britons think Queen Elizabeth should abdicate in favor of her 36-year-old son and heir Prince Charles, an opinion poll published today said. A similar poll in 1980 showed twothirds were against abdication. The latest poll, for the weekly magazine Woman, showed 52 per cent of those questioned thought the Queen, aged 58 and in good health, should abdicate. But the magazine said most people surveyed were still in favor of the monarchy and the Queen is the favorite member of the Royal Family. Press reports have suggested the Prince, Queen Elizabeth's eldest son, is perplexed at the idea of being a stand-in for his mother for a long time to come.

"My great problem is that I really don't know what my role in life is," he has been quoted as saying. The second royal favorite in the Woman poll was the Prince's young wife, Diana. The magazine suggested the glamorous Princess of Wales had made other members of the royal family look old-fashioned and that the Queen should update her image. World Fierce storm cripples Europe PARIS (AP) A Siberian cold front settled in across Europe today, forcing thousands of homeless into subway tunnels and turning water from firefighters' hoses to ice. Snow continued to blanket many countries this morning, keeping airports and schools closed as severe cold shattered decades-old low temperature records.

In Paris, Housing and Transport Minister Paul Quiles said subway stations would remain open tonight to shelter the city's estimated 22,000 homeless.

The 54-year-old princess, a heavy smoker with a long history of bronchial trouble, underwent surgery at west London's Brompton Hospital on Sunday. A statement issued afterward said she is likely to be released within the week. "She was seen by her doctors this morning and is making excellent progress," the princess' spokesman, Maj.

John Griffin, said today. "No further bulletins will be issued and it is not yet known when she will be leaving hospital." Margaret's friend, publisher Norman Lonsdale, 57, told a reporter after hearing that doctors had given the princess the allclear: "Thank God but now I hope this will convince her to give up smoking." logne. west of Paris frozen solid and switches were frozen, officials reportmeteorologists recording the coldest ed. winter since 1894, when the River Rome was hit badly by snow and Loire froze. ice.

The cou- Swiss diplomat freed in Lebanon BEIRUT (AP) A Swiss diplomat kidnapped at gunpoint in West Beirut has been freed unharmed after four days of captivity, Shiite Moslem leader Nabih Berri announced. Berri, also the government's minister for southern Lebanon, told reporters that security officers of his Amal militia discovered the hideout where Swiss charge d'affaires Eric Wehrli was being held, stormed it and freed him. "The kidnappers were relatives of the man detained in Switzerland," Berri said, referring to a Lebanese national arrested in Zurich in November in connection with an alleged plot to blow up the U.S. Embassy in Rome, A senior Amal official, speaking on condition he not be identified, added: "Amal security officials escorted the Alleged bombers' church burned PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) Someone tried to burn down a church attended by three people accused in anti-abortion bombings, and the unknown arsonist painted its door with the biblical maxim "an eye for an eye," police said.

Meanwhile, a federal magistrate on Monday refused to dismiss charges against four people charged in the bombings of medical facilities that perform abortions. Two of the defendants say they were doing God's bidding when they planted bombs, and one of the defendants said Monday the bombings had been called The Gideon Project, a reference to the Old Testament character commanded by God to destroy altars and trees used in pagan worship. Three church members James Simmons, 21; his wife, Kathy, 18; and Matthew Goldsby, 21. face charges for three Christmas bombings. The men also have been charged with a June bombing.

Also charged in the Dec. 25 bombings is Kaye Wiggins, 18, Goldsby's fiancee. She is not a member of the church, but attended services there Sunday. The women are charged with conspiracy and aiding and abetting the Christmas bombings. They have been free without bond.

The men, arrested last week, face 16 counts each of federal firearms and explosives violations in the four bombings. freed Swiss diplomat to his home" in the Moslem half of the Lebanese capital. Meanwhile, an American priest working with a Roman Catholic relief organization was kidnapped today by eight men armed with automatic rifles, police said. The abductors intercepted Rev. Lawrence Jenco's chauffeur-driven car on a street in a residential neighborhood of mostly Moslem West Beirut, hauled him out at gunpoint and sped off in two cars, police said.

No shooting was reported. Jenco, 50, from Chicago, works at the Catholic Relief Services office in West Beirut. Police said he was heading to work from his home at about 7:30 a.m. when he was abducted. Jenco is the fifth American kidnapped or reported missing in West Beir- ut since February 1984, when Moslem and Druse militias seized control of the area from the Lebanese army.

In other developments, Israel has announced it will not show up for the next scheduled round of troop withdrawal talks with Lebanon but has made no decision to end the negotiations. A government official said Prime Minister Shimon Peres's cabinet will discuss the position taken by Lebanon's delegation in the latest negotiating session that ended in stalemate Monday in the Lebanese border town of Nagoura. An aide to Peres said that round of United Nations-sponsored talks was "somewhat disappointing" and he did not expect the cabinet will decide its next step by Thursday, when another discussion is scheduled. Deputy minister knew of death plan: witness TORUN, Poland (AP) A secret police captain who has admitted organizing the abduction and killing of a pro-Solidarity priest testified today the decision was made at "the very top" and he was certain a deputy minister knew of the plan. Capt.

Grzegorz Piotrowski said he told two of his lieutenants who are on trial with him that the decision to kidnap Rev. Jerzy Popieluszko was made at a level higher than their department in the Interior Ministry. "For me, the lowest level that could have taken such a decision was a deputy minister," the 33-year-old officer told the court, where he and three other secret police officers are being tried for Popieluszko's abduction and slaying last October. On Monday, Piotrowski testified he beat the priest unconscious and threw his body into a river. But while appearing composed and self-confident, Pio- trowski was asked by judge how he pleaded to the murder indictment.

He replied, "I don't admit to any of the "I was taught in philosophy that if one element in a series is illogical, the entire series is invalidated, which doesn't mean I don't admit guilt to some of the particular actions," he said, without explaining what he thought was illogical. The name of the minister was disclosed Monday when one of the. seven judges asked co-defendant Lieut. Waldemar Chmielewski about his statement during the pre-trial investigation that Piotrowski had told him the abduction had been cleared with Gen. Wladyslaw Ciaston, a deputy interior minister in charge of the security service.

Chmielewski acknowledged he named Ciaston but said he now believed he only inferred Ciaston supported the action and that Piotrowski did not actually mention his name..
