Plyushch said, "we were given sulphur injections that would raise the temperature to 40 degrees Centigrade (104 degrees Fahrenheit). The discomfort was so intense that all you could do was endlessly search for a new position." "I was told," he added, "that in 1970 a prisoner named Grigoriev died following a sulphur injection when his liver exploded." "The sulphur shots were usually saved for those charged with bad conduct, notably those who would ask to use the toilet outside of the scheduled hours," he said. Plyushch said that when he arrived at the Ukrainian Dniepropetrovsk mental prison the other political prisoners immediately told him, "I must never protest, if I did I would be given neurological drugs, sulphur injections or not be permitted to go to the toilet." Plyushch reported that there are over 60 political inmates still at the prison, Plyushch made it clear that he still is a committed Communist and said he represented Soviet neo-Marxists.

He said it is the Soviet regime which is "sick and a shameful taint on the bright ideals of PARIS (Reuter-UPI) Soviet dissident Leonid Plyushch, still visibly weak from years in a Soviet mental hospital, drew a harrowing picture yesterday of life for political detainees in the Soviet Union. The 37-year-old Ukrainian mathematician described scenes in mental hospitals where "political patients," bullied by common criminals serving as male nurses, vied with lunatics for cigarette butts lying among used toilet paper. Plyushch, at his first public appearance since he was released to the West Jan. 10, accused Soviet doctors of aiding police in their interrogations, brutalizing prisoners and ordering injections which induced insufferable pain. Plyushch said he was given sulphur injections and administered neurological drugs and "watched with horror my own daily progress toward intellectual, moral and personal degradation.

"I quickly lost all interest in political problems, then scientific questions and finally in my wife and children. "I though of nothing except the toilet, tobacco, and the prison food which would let me once again go to the toilet. Then I would make myself repeat 'I must re- Faces confidence vote Kissinger calls aid cutoff a danger SAN FRANCISCO (AP -Reuter) Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said yesterday that Congress has helped set a dangerous precedent by cutting off United States support for anti-Soviet forces in Angola. "It is the first time that the United States has failed to respond to Soviet military moves outside the immediate Soviet orbit," he said. "And it is the first, time that Congress has halted national action in the middle of a crisis." Kissinger made the statement in a speech prepared for a joint luncheon of the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco and the World Affairs Council of Northern California.

Kissinger called for a balanced policy of firmness and conciliation in dealing with the Soviet Union. "We must accept that sovereign states, especially of roughly equal power, cannot impose unacceptable conditions on each other and must proceed by compromise." the secretary said. However, Kissinger said the United States and its allies can and must prevent Moscow from using its power 'tor unilateral advantage and political expansion." In his speech, Kissinger warned the Soviet Union and Cuba that "this type of action will not be tolerated again." Cuba has about 11,000 troops fighting with the Fbpular Movement for the liberation of Angola (MPLA). Although he said the administration does not want the United States to play the role of policeman to the world, Kissinger emphasized that "it can never be in our interest to let the Soviet Union act as the world's policeman." Meanwhile in Zaire, President Mobutu Sese Seko has banned the use of his country for the transit of mercenaries bound for the Angolan civil war, the Zaire news agency AZAP said yesterday. Some mercenaries recruited to fight with two Western-backed nationalist movements agarst the Communist-supported Popular Movement already have town from Europe to Angola via the Zaire capital of Kinshasa.

The agency quoted sources dose to the president as saying that the decision is in line with Zaire's policy of neutrality. While denouncing the presence of what it called "Soviet-Cuban" mercenaries fighting for the MPLA, Zaire cannot allow at the same time other mercenaries, whatever their nationality, to travel via Zaire, AZAP added Ulster gets 30 days to solve problems BELFAST API Northern Ireland's constitutional convention was reconvened by the British government yesterday and given 30 days to work out a solution permitting Roman Catholics a share in governing the Protestant-dominated ax counties. Neither British officials nor Ulster's feuding politicians held much hope that the convention will agree on a power-sharing formula to end the 64 years of bloodshed in which nearly L30O persons have been killed Convention chairman Sir Robert Lowery, Northern Ireland's lord chief justice, said the assembly met "with more hope than confidence" in finding a political solution to Ulster's troubles. The non-legislative body failed to reach agreement on power-shariig in srx months of deliberation last year. U.K.

Lloyd Morgan, genera manager of the Ringling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey Circus, said the eight-week-old cubs were stolen Saturday night.

He said he received a tip Sunday night from an unidentified telephone caller who supplied the address of a house where he and a trainer recovered the animals The cubs were asleep on a bed. and "when we woke them they got angry." he said. "The trainer was scratched but not seriously" LONDON (SNSi The Welfare State is grimly battling to save thousands of Britain's old folks from freezing to death in the coldest winter since 19fi3. All the apparatus of Britain's Welfare State has been alerted to the crisis as freezing temperatures grip the country for the second week. Milkmen, postmen, social workers, boy scouts and trade unionists have been drafted into the crusade, sparked off by the cold deaths of an elderly couple and seized by national newspapers desperate for circulation boosters.

The danger to Britain's eight million old-age pensioners and also to babies arises from "hypothermia," a medical condition in which the body, temperature drops so low that a person no longer feels cold. A five-degree-fahrenheit drop in body temperature can induce hypothermia and ihe elderly are especially vulnerable since about three-quarters live in homes without central heating. Fear of exorbitant electricity bills from space heaters is stopping many old folks from keeping warm, says Hugh Faulkner, spokesman for the Help the Aged charity. "We shall be pleading with the gas and electricity councils to be lenient where elderly people are involved," said Faulkner. While the councils claim not to cut off hardship cases, another chairity pressure group yesterday urged direct action, telling trade unionists not to disconnect old persons failing to pay heating bills.

Spokesman Frank Field of the Child Action Poverty Group claimed disconnections took place even when payments were arranged from supplementary state welfare payments. But Energy Minister Tony Benn rejected these charges and publicly assured pensioners that heating themselves was not unpatriotic, despite the government's energy conservation campaign. Local welfare councils throughout the country are advising pensioners to sleep in the living room, wrap up in blankets, resort to hot water bottles and sip hot drinks regularly. Various groups including milkmen have been organized into vigilante squads to spot the first signs of trouble among the independent and proud pensioners. Yet the elderly couple from near Manchester who died after being found unconscious from the cold lived in a modern council flat with a daughter and two grandsons nearby and were not visited regularly by the municipal social workers.

One response to the crisis has been "institutionalized neighborliness" Birmingham has a "Keep an Eye on Gran'" campaign: Nottingham has a "warmth campaign'' and the Daily Express newspaper, worst hit by plummeting sales, is printing "I'm OK" signs for old folks to put in their windows every morning. But Faulkner of Help the Aged emphasizes that a long-term solution requires better house heating Assassination attempt fails PARIS (Reuter) -President Jean-Bedel Bokas-sa of the Central African Republic escaped unhurt yesterday in an assassination attempt in Bangui, his country's capital, informed sources here reported. The sources said Bnkassa. the republic's president for life, was preparing to leave on a hunting trip when a grenade was thrown at Bangui airport Aides pushed Bokassa. 54.

The airport was closed temporarily after the attack The situation in the capital was said to be calm, but diplomats were advised to restrict their movements, tits sources said Rabin in TEL AVIV (Reuter-CDN-UPI-AP) Premier Yitzhak Rabin will have to defend himself and his government against a no-confidence motion in parliament next Monday as a result of critical remarks made at a background briefing during his Washington trip. A "senior source" at the beefing was reported in Tel Aviv to have been outspoken about the Israeli defence ministry's latest request for Delay of elections probable for India at home Aviv quoted the senior source as saying Israeli defence chiefs had asked for too many "gadgets" and not concentrated enough on essential defence items. Israel's shopping list had to be reduced to save the country face, the source was quoted as saying.

The Americans plan to chop $500 million off Israel's 1976 military aid request a third of what had been requested. The media in Tel Aviv say they think the gadgets referred to are the Pershing missiles which the Israeli defence ministry said are needed to balance Soviet-made missiles supplied to Egypt and Syria. Defence ministry sources point out that Rabin as a former chief of staff should have been fully aware of the implications of all items on the Israeli shopping list. Meanwhile, Rabin said he does not believe a statement attributed to Egyptian President Anwar Sadat that the United States had made a tacit agreement to recognize the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO Sadat was quoted in a Lebanese magazine as saying that State Secretary Henry Kissinger had made "something more than a promise" to him last February on U.S. recogniztion of the PLO.

The news of the Washington background briefing was received in Tel Aviv, with dismay. Davar, the Trade Union Federation newspaper, identified the senior source as Rabin. The reports reaching Tel by the state legislatures. The constitution provides for the life of parliament to be extended a year at a time during a national emergency.

The Congress Party adopted a resolution last month urging the government to extend the emergency, which was proclaimed last June 26. and to delay the parliamentary elections. Observers believe the government wants to use the coming year to quicken the pace of economic development and then go to the polls and point to economic progress as a benefit of emergency rule. NEW DELHI (AP) -Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's government introduced legislation yesterday postponing parliamentary elections in India for the first time since independence in 1947. The bill, certain of adoption because Gandhi's Congress Party has a commanding majority, extends the present five-year term of the lower house by one year.

Otherwise, it would expire on March 18. With two-thirds of the members absent, the lower house voted 144 to 25 to allow the government to introduce the bill.
