By Franklin Leiva Daily senior staff writer

Timor university rela- Militiamen trap staff in compound

DILI, Indonesia (AP) U.N. workers evacuated their embat- tled compound in East Timor today, leaving a skeleton crew to continue working to bring the ter- ritory to full nationhood. Anti - independence militiamen fired on the convoy as it left Dili. There was no immediate word of any injuries among the U.N. staffers, who had been trapped in the complex by the rampaging militias for several days. Some evacuaees arrived in Darwin, Australia, later Friday. On Thursday, the Roman Catholic Church accused pro- Indonesian militiamen of target- ing nuns and priests in predomi- nantly Catholic East Timor, where voters have overwhelmingly cho- sen independence from mostly Muslim Indonesia. "The world is talking and we're dying," nun Esmeralda de Araujo was quoted as saying by the Vatican's newspaper, L'Osser- vatore Romano. "It's hell here and I'd like to cry out to everybody to save us. But no one seems to want to hear." Mission chief leaves Among those fleeing today was U.N. mission bead Ian Martin, wearing a light blue flak jacket and riding on the back of one of the trucks heading for the airport. Some gunfire was heard in the distance. Keeping the U.N. compound functioning is considered key to the world body's plans to give East Timor nation status after its people voted overwhelmingly on Aug. to for independence from Indonesia, which invaded in 1975. The vote triggered a backlash of looting, burning and killing by anti -independence militias. The Indonesian army had pledged to ensure security. More than 200,000 East Timorese have been forced to leave their homeland, U.N. offi- cials said. More than 50,000 were shipped to nalitia-run camps in West Timor, where refugees told of massacres and arson attacks by anti-independence militias either backed or led by Indonesian army units International outrage grew Thursday, with the Pentagon sus- pending official relation vith the Indonesian military, and foreign mine.ters at an Asia -halt-a sum- mit demanding that Indonesian le:iders stop the rampaging mili- tias. Whilt some countries advo- cated an international peacekeep- ing force, key nations shied away from committing troops without an invitation from the Indonesian government. NATO said it would- n't take part in such a force. Relations suspended In Washington. Cam. Henry H. Shelton, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the Senate Armed Services Committee that the crisis presents no threat to U.S. national interests that would justify sending American troops. Shortly after, President Clinton suspended relations with Indonesia's military and insisted its government allow internation- al peacekeepers in. Australia said Friday it will consider breaking economic ties with Indonesia if Jakarta fails to control the crisis in East Timor. Got news? The two nations trade $3.9 billion worth of goods each year. The nations also have close military links, but Prime Minister John Howard said he had not yet decided whether to suspend 11-800-COLLECT Australia's military ties with Indonesia. The militias have reportedly killed about 100 people, including three priests, in a grenade attack on a church in Suai, the Vatican's Save a Buck or Two. missionary news agency Fides reported Thursday. Fifteen priests and some nuns have been report- www.1800collect.com Savings vs dialing "fr with AT&T ed killed in Dili and Baucau.
