WoRLD- PageA2 BUSH VISITS AI.I.Y SAUDI lA FOR TALKS WITH KING AMID ANNOUNCFMEN1' OF MAJOR ARMS DEAL Bv TERENCE HUNT AP WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT RIYADH, Saudi Arabia - President Bush delivered a sophisticated weapons sale for Saudi Arabia on Monday, trying to bolster defenses ' against threats from U.S. adversary Iran and muster support in this oil,rich kingdom for a long-stalled Mideast peace agreement. On a surprisingly cold day ·with bluslery winds, Bush received a warm embrace from King Abdullah, whose family wields , almost' absolute rule. Among ordinary Saudis and across much of the Mideast, Bush is unpopular, particularly because of the Iraq war and unflinching U.S. support for Ismel. Bush and Abdullah were going to some lengths over two days 10 emphasize their strong personal ties. Saudi Arabia holds the world's largest oil reserves . and surging fuel costs are pulling a major strain on the troubled U.S. economy. But White House officials said it was unclear if Bush raised . the subject with the king. The issue has come up in earlier stops on Bush's eightday trip, largely in the cm\text of his quest for alternate fuels and sources of energy, the officials said. White House counselor Ed Gillespie said Mideast leaders have "talked about the nalure of the market and the vast demand that's on. the world market today for oil.". He said that was "a legitimate and accurate point." Bush, who dislikes late nights, also stayed up well pasl his regular 9:30 p.m. bedtime . for after-dinner , AP photo President Bush, left, holds the King Abdul Aziz .Order of Merit that was presented to him by Saudi King Abdullah, right, at Riyadh Palace, Monday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. talks with the king in the into the 40s.

Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, with majority Sunni Muslim populations, harbor deep suspicions about Shiite Iran's rising power and want to make sure the U.S. remains committed to keeping Tehran's ambitions in check. At the same time, Arab allies are worried that the world economy would suffer heavily if the U.S: dispute with Iran turns into a military confrontation. On Mideast peace, Saudi Arabia handed Bush a coup by taking part in the U.S.sponsored Mideast peace conference in Annapolis, Md., in November. Bush was expected to encourage Saudi Arabia during his visit to use some of its vast wealth to help struggling Palestinians build the foundations of ·a future state. Bush also sees support from Arab neighbors as crucial to the Palestinian leadership being able to successfully negotiate with Israel over borders and other contentious issues. Abdullah, for his part, was expected to urge Bush to keep up the pressure on Israel to halt settlements in Palestinian territories. Bush's drive to spread democracy across the Mideast was another likely topic. The king has tried to · push some reforms on education and women's rights and there have been limited municipal council elections. But he has been cautious and limited in his effort. Posing for pictures, the king and the president did not speak about political matters. Abdullah presented Bush with what appeared to be a medallion of gold with BY DAVID ESPO Democratic presidential rivals Hillary Rodham Cli'nton and Barack Obama stepped back from a controversy over race Monday night, agreeing that a prolonged clash over civil rights could 'harm their pany's overall drive to win the White House. .

Strikingly, though, pne of Clinton's supporters. New York Rep. Charle.s Rangel, was sharply critical of Obama in an interview during the day. "How race got into this thing is because Obama said ·race,'" Rangel, of the the dean Congressional Black Caucus. said on NY I. For all the maneuvering. Democrats are without a contested election on Tuesday. That was in .contrast to the . Republican campaign, where McCain and Rmm1ey battled in a Michigan prima· ry that neither could afford to lose. "I will not rest until Michigan is back,'' said Romney, a native son who jabbed at his rival for saying many jobs ·among the thousands lost will never return. "We will create·new jobs," insisted McCain. who also favors improvements in federal programs for laid-off workers. "We have the innovation, the talent, the knowledge and the ability ... to regain Michigan's position as the best in the world." Polls showed McCain and Romney in a close race, with former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee running ,, third. Of the three, Romney is most in need of a victory as he looks to restore at least some of the luster lost with defeats in the Iowa caucuses . and New Hampshire primary. Several associates have suggested the former Massachuselts governor may quit the race unleso he prevails. McCain won the state's primary eight years ago on the strength of -independent voters, and hopes for a reprise on Tuesclay.

WoRLD- PageA2 BUSH VISITS AI.I.Y SAUDI lA FOR TALKS WITH KING AMID ANNOUNCFMEN1' OF MAJOR ARMS DEAL Bv TERENCE HUNT AP WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT RIYADH, Saudi Arabia - President Bush delivered a sophisticated weapons sale for Saudi Arabia on Monday, trying to bolster defenses ' against threats from U.S. adversary Iran and muster support in this oil,rich kingdom for a long-stalled Mideast peace agreement. On a surprisingly cold day ·with bluslery winds, Bush received a warm embrace from King Abdullah, whose family wields , almost' absolute rule. Among ordinary Saudis and across much of the Mideast, Bush is unpopular, particularly because of the Iraq war and unflinching U.S. support for Ismel. Bush and Abdullah were going to some lengths over two days 10 emphasize their strong personal ties. Saudi Arabia holds the world's largest oil reserves . and surging fuel costs are pulling a major strain on the troubled U.S. economy. But White House officials said it was unclear if Bush raised . the subject with the king. The issue has come up in earlier stops on Bush's eightday trip, largely in the cm\text of his quest for alternate fuels and sources of energy, the officials said. White House counselor Ed Gillespie said Mideast leaders have "talked about the nalure of the market and the vast demand that's on. the world market today for oil.". He said that was "a legitimate and accurate point." Bush, who dislikes late nights, also stayed up well pasl his regular 9:30 p.m. bedtime . for after-dinner , AP photo President Bush, left, holds the King Abdul Aziz .Order of Merit that was presented to him by Saudi King Abdullah, right, at Riyadh Palace, Monday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. talks with the king in the into the 40s.

Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, with majority Sunni Muslim populations, harbor deep suspicions about Shiite Iran's rising power and want to make sure the U.S. remains committed to keeping Tehran's ambitions in check. At the same time, Arab allies are worried that the world economy would suffer heavily if the U.S: dispute with Iran turns into a military confrontation. On Mideast peace, Saudi Arabia handed Bush a coup by taking part in the U.S.sponsored Mideast peace conference in Annapolis, Md., in November. Bush was expected to encourage Saudi Arabia during his visit to use some of its vast wealth to help struggling Palestinians build the foundations of ·a future state. Bush also sees support from Arab neighbors as crucial to the Palestinian leadership being able to successfully negotiate with Israel over borders and other contentious issues. Abdullah, for his part, was expected to urge Bush to keep up the pressure on Israel to halt settlements in Palestinian territories. Bush's drive to spread democracy across the Mideast was another likely topic. The king has tried to · push some reforms on education and women's rights and there have been limited municipal council elections. But he has been cautious and limited in his effort. Posing for pictures, the king and the president did not speak about political matters. Abdullah presented Bush with what appeared to be a medallion of gold with BY DAVID ESPO Democratic presidential rivals Hillary Rodham Cli'nton and Barack Obama stepped back from a controversy over race Monday night, agreeing that a prolonged clash over civil rights could 'harm their pany's overall drive to win the White House. . The · lwo leading Democratic contenders as shifted course Republicans pointed toward Tuesday's pivotal primary in Michigan, where Mitt Romney and John McCain both pledged to lead a reviva.l for a state and an auto industry ravaged by recession. . · Obama was the tirst to try and quell the controversy. thai flared in the Democratic campaign in recent days, calling reporters together to say he didn't want the campaign "to degenerate into so much tit-for-tat, back-andforth that we lose sight of why all of us are doing this." Referring to Clinton and former Sen. John Edwards, he said thai while they may have disagrc:ements, . "we share the same goals. We're all Democrats, we all believe in civil rights, we all believe in equal rights." Clinton·~ campaign issued a statement in ,the same vein about an hour or so after Obama rspoke, saying it was time to seek common ground. "And in that spirit, let's come together, because I want more than anything else to ensure that our family stays together on the front lines of the struggle to expand rights for all Americans," she said. Strikingly, though, pne of Clinton's supporters. New York Rep. Charle.s Rangel, was sharply critical of Obama in an interview during the day. "How race got into this thing is because Obama said ·race,'" Rangel, of the the dean Congressional Black Caucus. said on NY I. For all the maneuvering. Democrats are without a contested election on Tuesday. That was in .contrast to the . Republican campaign, where McCain and Rmm1ey battled in a Michigan prima· ry that neither could afford to lose. "I will not rest until Michigan is back,'' said Romney, a native son who jabbed at his rival for saying many jobs ·among the thousands lost will never return. "We will create·new jobs," insisted McCain. who also favors improvements in federal programs for laid-off workers. "We have the innovation, the talent, the knowledge and the ability ... to regain Michigan's position as the best in the world." Polls showed McCain and Romney in a close race, with former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee running ,, third. Of the three, Romney is most in need of a victory as he looks to restore at least some of the luster lost with defeats in the Iowa caucuses . and New Hampshire primary. Several associates have suggested the former Massachuselts governor may quit the race unleso he prevails. McCain won the state's primary eight years ago on the strength of -independent voters, and hopes for a reprise on Tuesclay. He has regained the lead ih the. nationfll poll s that he enjoyed months ago before his campaign nearly came apart over the summer. Huckabee has less at stake' . in Michigan than either of his two rivals, and hopes to attract votes from those ·hard-hit by the state's economic troubles, as well as from evangelical Christians, who powered him to victory in the Iowa caucuses. He, too, campaigned on economic issues during the ·day. "Some of lhe toughest competition your company faces is from its own government, whose tax policies, whose regulatory policies, the threat of litigation, was unmistakable after days Robert Johnson appeared to makes it real tough to stay in of race-related controversy, make a veiled reference to business," he told employ- and as her campaign Obama's self-disclosed drug ees at a Demmer Corp. plant arranged a conference call to use as a youth - althc • ·gh near Lansing that makes criticize his record on abor- he quickly disputed tha as armored perspnnel carriers tion. his intent. for the military.

I've got it in my heart, and I've got cars in my bloodstream," he said. A former Massachusetts governor, Romney promised to co nvene a White House summit within I00 days of taking office to produce a solution to the auto industry's long-term slide. In remarks that could, apply to President Bush and the Republicans who controlled Congress for' a decade, . he. said, . "Washington politicians , · look at Michigan and see a .. rust belt. But the real rust is in Washington." McCain spoke constantly of the productivity of Michigan workers. "As president of the United States, I will herald a new day for Michigan,'' he said. Among other Republicans, former Sen. Fred Thompson is making a last stand in South Carolina, which has a primary next Saturday. -Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani campaigned in Florida, where he hopes to resurrect his flagging campaign in the Jarv 29 primary. ~ For much of the day, both Clinton and Obama seemed content to engage in increasingly arcusatory campaign tactics: · Campaigning in Nevada, Obama, said some of his opponents "don't seem to have anything positive to say about their own record. All they're trying to do is white and green stones, suspended from a gold . palm tree emblem with crossed swords. "The least we can do in providing you hospitality is to provide you with the highest order of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and that is the Order of the late King Alldul Aziz, founder of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia," . Abdullah said, speaking through a translator. Gillespie said there was a lot of interest over dinner about' turmoil in U.S. financial markets as well as the U.S. presidential race. · He said some·· Mideast leaders were looking past the Bush presidency to his successor and what changes might' occur. At the same time, he said it was helpful for the leaders to deal with Bush, someone they know. . The president began the day in the Persian Gulf citystate of Dubai, the cosmopolitan banking and business hub propelled into the news when a locally-owned company agreed to manage six of the United States' largest ports. The deal was aborted after a storm of protests about foreign ·control of key U.S. facilities. National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley said -Bush, in talks with local leaders, had to reassure them that the United States was open for foreign investment. "I also want you to understand something about America - that we respect you, we respect your religion and we want to work together for the sake of freedom and peace," Bush told the group. (!,4/t ..

MANCHESTER. N.H. A door-to-door canvasser here for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y.. told me all during the weekend before TueSday's primary that his team was encountering independent voterS tom between Clinton and Republican Sen. Johp McCain (Arizona). Surely an anomaly, I thought. Then I ran into such a voter, ·a teacher taking her young daughter to campaign events. I asked her, · "What about Barack Obama?" "I've seen him five times," she said. "What he says sounds great, but it's all fluff. There's no meat there." And that, rthink, is one rea- · son Clinton pulled out a campaign-saving victory over the Illin9is Democrat here. Welling tears may have helped "humanize" Clinton, especially with women voters, but I think she also made a dent with her updated version of Walter Mondale's 1984 tauill of his "new ideas" challenger, Sen. Gary Hart, DColo.: "Where's the beef?'' Obama delivers thrilling speeches about "hope" and "change" and ending the poisonous partisanship that consumes Washington. His crowds love the message, as do I. But they seem to cheer him most when he refers to what can be done if the partisanship ends - 47 million people can get health insurance, the planet can be saved from global warming, teachers will be better rewarded, youngsters wiH have earlychildhood education, etc. But it's a litany ofobjectives pretty much devuid 'of details. And Obama mrely engag~s in Morton Kondracke question-and-answer sessions with voters to give them a chance. to dmw him out - or him, to show how thoughtful he is. · Right now, he's a ·national Rorschach test, with voters reading into him their fon(!est hopes for what America can do and be. He's very good, but the New Hampshire results indicate that Democrats aren't yet ready to anoint him. - Outside one rally in Lebanon, N.H., I asked Qbama campaign manager David Axelrod if more substantive speeches were coming soon. He said that they were, after Obama nailed down endorsements froin the culinary workers union in Nevada and some politicians he wouldn't name - reportedly, some senators. He got the culinary workers - a big coup - but senatorial endorsements aren't flooding, at least at the time I write this. It is time for Obarna to put more meat on the bones and show where the beef is. On the Republican side', it also would be advisable for McCain - after his astounding political resurrection here - to adapt his "I talk straight" and "''m ready to lead" messages to address middle-class economic anxiety in upcoming races in Michigan and Today is Tuesday, Jan.

Mike Huckabee may have more appeal than he did in New Hampshire. McCain has talked from time to time about the idea of offering workers "wage insur." -ance" to protect thein against losses if they lose a job and are forced to take one at less pay. He needs 10 emphas .tze thatand also to make the case that free trade is Jong-tenn good for American workers. Huckabee is saying it isn't. McCain also has to fend off former Massachusetts Gov. Min Rornney, who is now portraying himself, Iikti all the ·Democratic candidates, as an "agent of change" and charging that it's impossible for a "Washington insider" McCain - to change that "broken" town. Answering back, McCain could cite all the maverick reformist stances he's taken - campaign-finance refono and earmark control, for example - but some new policy ideas for the middle class also would help. Romney also ought to be spelling out just how - with all the orthodox right-wing positions he's taken - he could repair the "brokenness" of Washington that he rightly says now makes it impossible to balance budgets; conu:ol illegal immigration, improve the schools .and ensure that Ameticans keep the best jobs in the world. Back on the Democmtic side, meanwhile, Clinton's surprising victory seems to have been the product of three major'factors- organization, women's turnout and la~tminute doubts about Obama. Pre-election polls showing Obarna with a huge lead didn't anticipate that 57 percent of Democratic primary voters would be women, who went for Clinton by a margin of 47 . percent to 34 percent for Obama and 15 percent for former Sen. John Edwards (N.C.). Clinton also carried voters over 40 yem old and under $50,000 in income- though, also those from $150,000 to $200,000 - and she won among registered Democrats by a margin of 45 percent to 34 percent over Obama. Undoubtedly, Clinton was · helped by the enormous publicity given her emotional welling-up at a diner . on Monday -which I think was a genuine response to . an expected loss - but also by charges she made that she could deliver change and , Obama couldn't. Clinton also decided to engage in exhaustive Q and A ·sessions with voters -lasting 90 minutes at one event I attended in Nashua demonstrating her exhaustive gnisp of policy detail. She . · answered the questions cheerfully, too. New Hampshire, I think, served a~ a check on a runaway romance they might regret. In effect, voters here decided to give other states a chance to lind out about Obama: Is he John F.

MANCHESTER. N.H. A door-to-door canvasser here for Sen.

Johp McCain (Arizona). Surely an anomaly, I thought. Then I ran into such a voter, ·a teacher taking her young daughter to campaign events. I asked her, · "What about Barack Obama?" "I've seen him five times," she said. "What he says sounds great, but it's all fluff. There's no meat there." And that, rthink, is one rea- · son Clinton pulled out a campaign-saving victory over the Illin9is Democrat here. Welling tears may have helped "humanize" Clinton, especially with women voters, but I think she also made a dent with her updated version of Walter Mondale's 1984 tauill of his "new ideas" challenger, Sen. Gary Hart, DColo.: "Where's the beef?'' Obama delivers thrilling speeches about "hope" and "change" and ending the poisonous partisanship that consumes Washington. His crowds love the message, as do I. But they seem to cheer him most when he refers to what can be done if the partisanship ends - 47 million people can get health insurance, the planet can be saved from global warming, teachers will be better rewarded, youngsters wiH have earlychildhood education, etc. But it's a litany ofobjectives pretty much devuid 'of details. And Obama mrely engag~s in Morton Kondracke question-and-answer sessions with voters to give them a chance. to dmw him out - or him, to show how thoughtful he is. · Right now, he's a ·national Rorschach test, with voters reading into him their fon(!est hopes for what America can do and be. He's very good, but the New Hampshire results indicate that Democrats aren't yet ready to anoint him. - Outside one rally in Lebanon, N.H., I asked Qbama campaign manager David Axelrod if more substantive speeches were coming soon. He said that they were, after Obama nailed down endorsements froin the culinary workers union in Nevada and some politicians he wouldn't name - reportedly, some senators. He got the culinary workers - a big coup - but senatorial endorsements aren't flooding, at least at the time I write this. It is time for Obarna to put more meat on the bones and show where the beef is. On the Republican side', it also would be advisable for McCain - after his astounding political resurrection here - to adapt his "I talk straight" and "''m ready to lead" messages to address middle-class economic anxiety in upcoming races in Michigan and Today is Tuesday, Jan.

Min Rornney, who is now portraying himself, Iikti all the ·Democratic candidates, as an "agent of change" and charging that it's impossible for a "Washington insider" McCain - to change that "broken" town. Answering back, McCain could cite all the maverick reformist stances he's taken - campaign-finance refono and earmark control, for example - but some new policy ideas for the middle class also would help. Romney also ought to be spelling out just how - with all the orthodox right-wing positions he's taken - he could repair the "brokenness" of Washington that he rightly says now makes it impossible to balance budgets; conu:ol illegal immigration, improve the schools .and ensure that Ameticans keep the best jobs in the world. Back on the Democmtic side, meanwhile, Clinton's surprising victory seems to have been the product of three major'factors- organization, women's turnout and la~tminute doubts about Obama. Pre-election polls showing Obarna with a huge lead didn't anticipate that 57 percent of Democratic primary voters would be women, who went for Clinton by a margin of 47 . percent to 34 percent for Obama and 15 percent for former Sen. John Edwards (N.C.). Clinton also carried voters over 40 yem old and under $50,000 in income- though, also those from $150,000 to $200,000 - and she won among registered Democrats by a margin of 45 percent to 34 percent over Obama. Undoubtedly, Clinton was · helped by the enormous publicity given her emotional welling-up at a diner . on Monday -which I think was a genuine response to . an expected loss - but also by charges she made that she could deliver change and , Obama couldn't. Clinton also decided to engage in exhaustive Q and A ·sessions with voters -lasting 90 minutes at one event I attended in Nashua demonstrating her exhaustive gnisp of policy detail. She . · answered the questions cheerfully, too. New Hampshire, I think, served a~ a check on a runaway romance they might regret.

BY LISA CORNWELL . VANDALIA - Hometown friends and neighbors offered prayers Monday night for 20-year-old Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach, a pregnant Marine who authorities believe was killed · and buried near her base in Nonh Carolina. . The Lauterbach family filed into a 'church, for a prayer service and sat in the front row. Earlier in the day; federal authorities expanded a nationwide search for a fellow Marine wanted in the woman's slaying. "This evening, we are suffering," the Rev. Francis Keferl told a spillover crowd of more than 800 at St. Christopher Catholic Church. Maria's mother, Mary Lauterbach, dabbed her eyes with a tissue during the 40-minute service, and at one point . was hugged by a sobbing woman .. Jeffrey Kay. 48, of Vandalia, a member of the congregation who knew the slain Marine, presented Mary Lauterbach with a pink rose. "You could tell she was happy with life and everything and seemed to be the type that would make the right decisions at her age," Kay said of Maria, speaking before the service. "She had faith, which is a good thing." On a table just outside the sanctuary was a makeshift memorial to the slain Marine. White Teddy bears, a yellow varsity letter, and school and family . photos were displayed. Many of those attending the service pinned multicolored ribbons to their chests in remembrance of Lauterbach. Authorities in North Carolina on Saturday recovered what they believed to be the burned remains of Lauterbach and her unborn child from a lire pit in the backyard of fellow Marine Cpl. Cesar Armando Laurean. • Elise Wahle, youth ministry coordinator for the church, said parishioners remember Lauterbach for her strength, vitality, independent spirit, athletic talents and for being a Marine. Keferl told the gathering that the mother of Jesus is the model for everyone. .

Maria Lauterbach, a pregnant Marine who authorities believe was killed · and buried near her base in Nonh Carolina. . The Lauterbach family filed into a 'church, for a prayer service and sat in the front row. Earlier in the day; federal authorities expanded a nationwide search for a fellow Marine wanted in the woman's slaying. "This evening, we are suffering," the Rev. Francis Keferl told a spillover crowd of more than 800 at St. Christopher Catholic Church. Maria's mother, Mary Lauterbach, dabbed her eyes with a tissue during the 40-minute service, and at one point . was hugged by a sobbing woman .. Jeffrey Kay. 48, of Vandalia, a member of the congregation who knew the slain Marine, presented Mary Lauterbach with a pink rose. "You could tell she was happy with life and everything and seemed to be the type that would make the right decisions at her age," Kay said of Maria, speaking before the service. "She had faith, which is a good thing." On a table just outside the sanctuary was a makeshift memorial to the slain Marine. White Teddy bears, a yellow varsity letter, and school and family . photos were displayed. Many of those attending the service pinned multicolored ribbons to their chests in remembrance of Lauterbach. Authorities in North Carolina on Saturday recovered what they believed to be the burned remains of Lauterbach and her unborn child from a lire pit in the backyard of fellow Marine Cpl. Cesar Armando Laurean. • Elise Wahle, youth ministry coordinator for the church, said parishioners remember Lauterbach for her strength, vitality, independent spirit, athletic talents and for being a Marine. Keferl told the gathering that the mother of Jesus is the model for everyone. . "Through her intercession, we ask you to give consolation and strength to Maria's family and friends, especially in the difficult days and .months ·ahead," he said. Lauterbach disappeared sometime after Dec. 14, ·.not long after she met with military prosecutors to talk about her April allegation that Laurean raped her. · Rep6rts of Lauterbach's disappearance and subsequent news of her death has dominated discussions in this suburban community 10 miles north of Dayton. .

MIDDLEPORT -Middleport Village Council will decide within the next month whether the village's' swimming pool will open this summer. Council Member Julia Proctor said she will attempt to gauge publiC opinion about the pqol and determine . if enough donations can be secured to underwrite the operation. She said she will report back to council in a month. Last year, the pool was closed early because it did not generate enough income to pay its op!;!rating expenses, and the general fund could not afford to pay the differ: ence. The financial problems the pool has experienced are blamed on low attendance and the pool's poor .condition . Council agreed that if the pool is closed for the upcoming summer season, it will not likely be opened again. Ple•se see Pool, AS • ' trail in conjunction with Carol M. White's Physical Education Program adopted by the Meigs Local School District. The PEP program is a federal grant the district received to increase moderate to strenuous physical activity with .students. The district is currently in its second year of the three year program which helps to purchase physical educa- · tion equipment and provide scientifically based physical education for students. Bookman said the trail is being constructed for the purpose of changing the tra- ditional approaches of teaching science and pro. vi ding students the opportunity to explore the outdoors. "The construction and use of this walking trail will increase opportunity for teachers of our school district to teach science in an outdoor setting while providing 'hands on' learning." he added. Bookman feels the actual construction of the trail should be "minimal" though he hasn't received estimates on the shelter house yet.
