The fire was called Des Moines' deadliest. Relatives reported that Jackie Dunn, 26, counted as missing early Monday, was alive. Fire Chief Lee Williams said the store did not have an automatic sprinkler system. But as the investigation continued, he and others doubted that it would have helped much. "The fire appears to have spread in a matter of seconds. Those people had no chance to escape," Williams said. Dr. R. C. Wooters, Polk County Medical Examiner, said there were 10 bodies in a temporary morgue. He said some would not be positively identified for days because the bodies were burned beyond recognition and dental records would have to be used.

Their efforts were hampered more than usual because half the roof had collapsed into the second floor. Wants Idi out Dar es Sallaam, Tanzania-Tanzania is determined to end President Idi Amin's rule in Uganda, the Tanzanian government newspaper, the Daily News, said Monday. The English -language paper, said in an editorial that Uganda's invasion of Tanzania and seizure of Tanzanian territory "must be the last of Amin's mad actions." Tanzania and Uganda went to war last week after Ugandan troops invaded northwestern Tanzania and annexed 710 square miles of territory. Fighting reportedly is continuing on the border between the two black -ruled East African neighbors. The newspaper said: "Up until last Monday, the people of this country were willing to suffer the idiot as a neighbor whose utterances and actions were detested, but whose fate would be decided by the people of Uganda themselves. "That he has ordered his troops to kill our people and occupy part of our territory makes it necessary for us to deal with him in a manner that will put an end to this sad story." The editorial is the first indication the Tanzania government may be planning to do more than drive Ugandan troops from the Tanzanian territory they have occupied.
