U.N. VOTE AUTHORIZES POLICE FORCE FOR HAITI

The Security Council voted Thursday to send 1,267 police and military advisers, including about 500 uniformed Americans, to help stabilize Haiti as it awaits the return Oct. 30 of ousted President Jean-Bertrand Aristide.

The 15-nation council unanimously adopted the resolution authorizing 567 police monitors and 700 military personnel, as a series of brazen, bloody attacks on Aristide supporters by gunmen backing the military regime has threatened the U.N.-sponsored effort to restore Aristide to power.
