Venezuela to take over Heinz factory

CARACAS, Venezuela, Sept. 6 (UPI) -- Venezuela has ordered troops to
seize a Heinz Ketchup factory in the eastern part of the South American
country, El Universal reported Tuesday.

The factory, which has been closed since 1997, said Heinz officials,
will be expropriated by the state as part of a plan envisioned by
leftist President Hugo Chavez.

Heinz is headquartered in Pittsburgh.

Chavez has said that the government can take over factories and other
businesses that have closed their doors, and the state will compensate
the private holders for the facility.

The Venezuela leader has come under fire from leaders in the Bush
administration, who accuse Chavez of trying to transform Venezuelan into
a Cuba-style state.

Chavez is a self-proclaimed admirer of socialism, though professes to
want to introduce to Venezuela, a "21st century version" of socialism
and accuses Washington of trying to undermine his efforts to do so.
