Exercise in Democracy
</hdr>
<body>
<p> To the dismay of neighboring Saudi Arabia's conservative
monarchy, the Red Sea republic of Yemen has taken a first step
from one-man rule toward multiparty democracy. The General
People's Congress Party, which governed North Yemen before its
1990 merger with the Marxist South, won a plurality of the 301
parliamentary seats. But in a bid to curb lawlessness and
inflation, President Ali Abdullah Saleh promises a coalition
government that will include the southern Yemen socialist and
fundamentalist parties.
