Ever since 13 relaxed patrons, including four U.S. Marine embassy guards, were machine-gunned to death by guerrillas in San Salvador's Zona Rosa cafe last June, American officials have been talking about retribution. A reward of $100,000 was even offered by the State Department for the perpetrators. When pressed last week about why nothing more had been done, Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger made what seemed a surprising revelation. "The Salvadoran government with our assistance," he claimed, "has taken care of--in one way or another--a number of people who participated in that killing." About two weeks after...

Sensitive to charges of official complicity in the four murders, the Port Elizabeth police have launched an investigation, and the government has offered a $500 reward for information on the killers. But black residents are skeptical that justice will be served. Last week they took matters into their own hands and initiated the boycott of white stores. The boycott committee also drew up a list of demands that included the return of three other U.D.F. leaders, who disappeared on May 8, and the withdrawal of government security forces from the townships...
