Government Won’t Take Wounded Knee By Force
Pine Ridge S D. The government will not end the Indian occupation of Wounded Knee with gunfire, says the top federal negotiator. Assistant Attorney General Kent Frizzell stated the stalemate after 31 days, stressing negotiation over bloodshed though no talks were planned at midday Friday. Dick Wilson, Pine Ridge Oglala Tribal Chairman, urged action and criticized inaction while militants of the American Indian Movement maintain control of the village on the Pine Ridge reservation. Federal authorities and tribal supporters have blockaded the area and challenged a court order blocking food shipments into Wounded Knee.

Environmental group leader seeks peace with wary Texas industry
Environmental Action for Texas chairwoman Char White urges calm as she fights for a bill to create a state environmental agency. She brings an olive branch to win support from oil chemical and railroad interests while arguing the measure promotes orderly growth and could shield industry from lawsuits. The bill faces Senate hearings and a House vote next week amid opposition and questions about salaries in related boards.
