Fighting broke out between demonstrators and the police during a meeting outside the factory, and a number of people were hurt, including two policemen. The speaker at the meeting, Ms. Annie Peters, daughter of the drugs case millionaire, Hugo Peters, who died in Trinidad four years ago, was arrested and taken to the Washdon Police. Department for questioning. Ms. Pters was allowed to go free and when one of our reporters spoke to her, she had this to say:” The reason why I was arrested was that the police, together with the newspapers and the TV companies, want to put an end to our demonstration. This is because they are all supporting the Plastic Box Company in their war against the planet.” In any case, the demonstration continues, and tomorrow the Minister for the Environment will be having a meeting with the directors of the Plastic Box Company.33.3A EOL TravelWelcome to EOL Travel.

Although huge numbers of tourists visit Amsterdam, one rarely feels warm by them, except perhaps sometimes here in Dam Square, the heart of the city. And here too, there is entertainment of unconventional and unexpected kind. The Dutch have a great sense of humor. They love the bizarre, the quirky and the surreal. But visitors to Amsterdam remember above all the canals, hundreds of kilometers of them; wide and narrow, most lined with beautif
