Diplomatic Break Looms
Between Two Countries
Hl'ATKMAI.A (AP A diplo
matic break between Guatemala
and neishborinc Mexico loomed
today because Guatemalan planes
shot up three boats charged with
fishing illegally in territorial waters.
Mexico said two of the boats
were hers. The owner of one
was killed and a sailor and a cook
were wounded while shrimping le
gally in Mexican waters, reports
from Mexico City contended.
A Mexican senator said diplo
matic relations probably would be
broken if Guatemala didn't apologize.
The press office of Guatemalan
President Miguel Ydigoras Ku-
entes announced the machinegun
ning attack by air force planes
Wednesday without specifying the
boats nationalities.
The announcement said two of
the boats followed signals from
the planes and ran aground at
Tilapa. more than KM miles down
the Pacific coast from the Mexi
can border. Authorities later dis
closed that five wounded crewmen
had been interned in the military
hospital in this capital, 60 miles
inland from lilapa.
The authorities refused fo iden
tify the five but said two were
in serious condition.
The third boat was reported
sailing in ditliculty for Champeri
co, about 30 miles inside Guate
mala. There was no indication of
its nationality.
Gen. Ydigoras Fuentes had said
Monday that I'.S. and Mexican
boats were fishing illegafly in the
nation's Pacific waters. These
"bandits and pirates" would he
fired upon beginning Wednesday,
the president warned. The Mexi
can government said such attacks
would violate international law.
After the attack, Ydigoras Fu-
entcs told reporters the air force
had acted "in defense of our ter
ritorial waters and coasts." He
added a hint that fishermen might
be encased in arms smuggling.
The Mexican F'oreign Ministry
called the situation "undeniably
grave" and said it would take
proper measures when official re
ports had been received.
Rodolfo Brena Torres, chairman
of the Mexican Senate steering
committee, said diplomatic rela
tions probably would be broken to
day if Guatemala did not present
diplomatic excuses.
Mexico s 3lst military ?.one with
headquarters at Tapachula near
the Guatemalan border was put
on alert.
One Mexican account said their
two boats were fishing at the
mouth of the Suchiale River,
which forms the border at the
coast. Another Mexican report
said the attack occurred near San
Benito, 20 miles inside Mexico.
