J Fighting On Cyprus Keeps NATO On Edge By CARMAN CUMMING Canadian Press Staff Writer Heavy fighting on Cyprus British PM visits Ottawa Australian warship sinks Russian official defects Cyprus, tiny Mediterranean island off 'the Turkish coast, continued in the centre of world attention' this week as | new fighting broke out and complex negotiations went forward on providing it with an international police force. Fighting in tue port city of Limassol Wednesday and Thursday was the most se- vere since Christmas, when antagonisms between the Turkish-Cypriots and Greek- Cypriots flared inte civil fighting, British troops playing a temporary police role in the former colony, again damp- ened the fighting. But at least 18 persons were reported killed. U.S. REBUFFED A top U.S. diplomat, Under- secretary of State George Ball, meanwhile shuttled among the British, Greek, Turkish and Cypriot capitals seeking approval of a British- U.S. plan to place on Cyprus a 10,000 - man police force @rawn from the Western aili- ance. Late in the week this plan was reported to be foundering on the opposition of Arch- bishop Makarios, the bearded Greek - Cypriot. president of Cyprus. He was said to be insisting on a United Nations-sponsored force -- or possibly a force drawn from fellow Common- wealth members.
