Irish tourism drags as violence hurts travel plans

Hotels across the Emerald Isle report near empty rooms as Northern Ireland unrest deters visitors. The Irish Tourist Board warns of a million lost visitors with British and American numbers down, while some Dublin events are canceled and escorted tours drop up to half. A glimmer of improvement appears only as Irish vacationers seek affordable holidays at home and Britons seek cheaper stays. Meanwhile in Vienna, Milan Hübel is sentenced to 64 years for anti state activities. In New York, Gunnar Jarring resumes talks on a possible Middle East peace settlement.

Noisy Night Endured By British Units

In Belfast and Londonderry Northern Ireland a night of bombing and gunfire prompted British troops to describe the events as noise with little effect. IRA gunmen clashed with soldiers in Catholic districts while an explosion damaged a bottling plant in Londonderry and a garage raid in Killycolpy yielded petty cash. A 150 pound claymore mine exploded near Rosslea injuring no one. Authorities found 500 pounds of gelignite near Creggan, capable of destroying structures within 150 yards. In Dublin Prime Minister Lynch and SDLP leaders discussed a nuclear truce initiative with British administrator Whitelaw. Separately Ford Motor Co requested a price increase with the Federal Price Commission, adding 10 dollars to an existing request for 1973 cars.
