This is Chet Baker.

It was written by Russell Baker, who used to write an Observer column in the New York Times.

With Morocco's rejection of the plan, Mr. Baker had resigned.

We brought in Rick Baker, and Rick is one of the great makeup and special effects gurus of our industry.

Since the resignation of Mr. James Baker, the Moroccan side had been attempting either to force the Saharan side to accept autonomy or to make the conflict drag on, taking refuge in the lack of agreement between the parties.

The Frente POLISARIO had shown great pragmatism in accepting the new Baker plan, which was regarded as the optimum political solution but had been constantly rejected by Morocco.

It was important to recall that the only parties to the conflict were the Frente POLISARIO and the Kingdom of Morocco, and that there existed a settlement plan and a peace plan, both drawn up by Mr. Baker, representing the fruit of seven years of effort.

Morocco's intransigence continued to impede the efforts to reach a just solution, although the latest Baker plan, that had been accepted by the Frente POLISARIO and approved unanimously by the Security Council, seemed to have given new impetus to those efforts.

While the Frente POLISARIO actively supported the peace process led by the United Nations and had accepted the second peace plan presented by the former Personal Envoy of the Secretary General for Western Sahara, Mr. James Baker, the Moroccan occupier openly rejected that plan.

It had rejected the most recent plan proposed by Mr. James Baker, the Secretary General's Personal Envoy to Western Sahara, even though the plan made it many concessions, perhaps too many, in that it allowed everyone in the occupied territories the right to vote, including Moroccan settlers.

The efforts of the Secretary General and his departing Personal Envoy, James Baker, which had resulted in the Baker II Plan, should be welcomed. The cooperation of the Frente POLISARIO, which had led to progress in seeking a solution to the conflict, should also be commended.

It was important for all the parties to the conflict to be held accountable for the implementation of the various resolutions adopted by the United Nations, not only the invader, Morocco, but also, at another level, the Frente POLISARIO, that had generally shown goodwill but might find itself at a disadvantage under the latest Baker plan.

Three years after the outbreak of the Latin American crisis, United States Treasury Secretary James Baker announced a systematization of the initial response. It was not very imaginative Banks and multilateral development institutions should all lend more, and the debtors should continue their efforts to improve their macroeconomic policies.

There have been academic experts on Japan, like the acclaimed scholar Edwin Reischauer. There have also been political heavyweights, such as Michael Mansfield, a long time Democratic majority leader of the US Senate, former Vice President Walter Mondale, former Speaker of the House of Representatives Thomas Foley, and Senator Howard Baker, who also served as President Ronald Reagan s chief of staff.
