tran gives Britain free hand LONDON (UPI) - Iran has given Britain a free hand to resolve’ the seizure of the Iranian Embassy, saying it was “prepared to accept” the death of the hostages held by three Iranian-Arab gunmen. Hours before the siege entered its third day Friday, the gunmen who say they are ethnic Arabs from the Lranian province of Khuzestan renewed their vow to kill the Iranian hostages unless Iran released 91 prisoners and Britain provided a plane. The gunmen allowed two deadlines to pass Wednesday despite publicly scoffing at an eye for an eye reprisal threat by Iran to kill one prisoner in Khuzestan for every hostage slain. Sources reported the hostages sent a secret message to Iranian authorities with per- mission of their terrorist captors. But the contents of the note, written by the embassy second secretary Issa Naghiz Adeh and passed to Iran by Britain, were not disclosed.

The plan, which has been worked on for the last nine years, sets down policies for all aspects of the City’s future growth and development. But it took some fancy footwork by City staff to get the bylaw to council without holding a_ third public hearing on the subject. A public hearing on the community plan which was held on March 4) was nullified on the advice of the City solicitor because late submissions were received by council. By law, council members are not allowed to hear any new information on a subject after a public hearing ts held on that topic NULL AND VOID After the March 4 hearing not only was a letter clarifying points brought up in the hearing, placed on aldermen's desks. but another letter was put in the aldermen's information package and some aldermen discussed the plan with people after the public heanng Any one of these would have been sufficient to make the hearing null and vond An earher public hearing had to be cancelled after a local newspaper failed to advertise the heanny twice Typing Shorthand Bookkeeping Full Day $65 North & West Vancouver School Boards Adult Education Department NORTH SHORE SCHOOL OF COMMERCE EMPLOYMENT TRAINING, UPGRADING AND REFRESHER COURSES Business English 8.30 am - 3:00 pm at Delbrook Secondary School 631 W Windsor (entrance off Stantey St) North Vancouver MONTHLY FEES Mornings $45 For tntormation call 885-8741 Adult Ed.

For both hearings the City had sent out notices to all residents at a cost of about $800 for each mailout, and apparently faced the prospect of a third mailout and public hearing. But the City managed to side-step this by eliminating from the plan all sections on which late submissions had been received. And it was a very cautious council which met Monday night and warned residents who had attended to hear about the plan that they could not make any com- ments on tt What council gave first three readings to on Monday night was an community plan which had been amended in about areas, seven The most important change was that the zoning of an area above Grand Boulevard, which had been dedicated as parkland and was shown on the com- munity plan as being suitable for detached housing. will be determined by special study Alderman Stella Jo Dean made a tast ditch effort to have several parts of the amended plan further amended. but these attempts were defeated by council Council iw scheduled to give the bylaw concerning the plan its final reading at tomorrow (Monday) nights meeting Business Arithmetic Oftice Procedures Business Machines Afternoons $35 PITCH IN AND CLEAN UP is the message of these West Vancouver traders intent on the beautification of the municipality's main shopping strip.
