Civil righU case not dismissed COLUMBUS (AP) - A federal lawsuit accusing police officers of . civil rights violations should not be dismissed, a federal magistrate has recommended. · But U.S. Magistrate Norah McCann King did rule that the Justice Deparrment should have to prove the city was responsible for viola,:.lions by its officers, which would make it harder for the department .to prove its case. King made the recommendations friday in her report to U.S. Dis. trict Judge John Holschuh, who is expected to decide later this year whether the case should be dismissed. The Lawsuit against the city and its police department was filed . October 21 . It accuses officers of abusing civil rights by filing false charges, using excessive force and conductmg illegal •earches and , ·seizures. The city and the Fraternal Order of Police have asked that the case be dismissed. They said Congress overstepped its authority by allow'ing the Justice Deparrment to sue cities when officers violate citizens' civil rights. They also contended the allegations were too vague. King disagreed, finding that the law is valid and that a lawsuit does not have go into detail about the allegations. Blade associate editor dies " TOLEDO (AP) - S.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The fences around the nation's nuclear weapons plants became new dividing line's this year. Those who worked inside the · plant gates and were unknowingly exposed to substances that have made them sick found patrons on Capitol Hill to explain their plight and build support for co mpensation. People outside the gates found sympathy but no well-placed advocates. After months of trying, the nuclear-plant . neighbors still haven't persuaded a single lawmaker to introduce a bill proposing medical monitoring for sick people who lived near plants but weren 't on the payroll of Energy Department contractors. That' failure is striking because Congress takes on hundreds of bills that languish for every one that passes. "There is some frustration on the part of the neighbors but they haven't given up," said Doris Smith, whose family farm is across the street . from the Pantex plant near Amarillo, Texas. Smith has had to sc hool herself in the complicated world of nuclear weapons production, a t~sk helped by a nationwide network of lobbyists , researchers and letter-writers. They Introduced her to other neighbors-turnedactivists such as Lisa Crawford, who organized a successful group around a former weapons plant in Fernald, Ohio. That group got $78 million in 1989 after putting together a strong court case and getting help from members of Congress whose investigations un earthed evidence of uranium releases into the atmosphere. "That's the shining role model," Smith said. Crawford agreed that the Fernald setdement should be a reminder to decision- makers of the high cost of ignoring the pco.ple suffering from illnesses caused by contamination outside the nuclear plant gates. "The government has a responsibility to all these people;· she fo3id. "It's legal, it's moral, it's ethical." C urrent efforts on behalf of nuclear neighbors have been focused on Congress and the Clinton administration. The Energy Department's response was that it doesn't have the <cientific basis yet to accurately identitY exposed populations near all the weapons plants. More than a dozen sites around the country contributed to nuclear weapons production, including three in Ohio - Fernald, the former Mound Plant in Miamisburg a1id the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant in Piketon. Police lawsuits say departments under.rtaffed,ovenNorked Southeast residents commute to other regions for work DEFIANCE (AP) - Working an average of 12 overtime hours a week, police officer Steve Gebhart says he's tired and worries how that affects his safety Gebhart and 19 fellow officers contend in a Lawsuit that the Defiance police department is breaking a federal Labor law that requires it to grant time off requests for overtime worked. Police officers in at least two dozen cities around the nation have filed similar lawsuits, accusing their bosses of breaking promises by forcing them to take money instead . of days off for overtime work. "Excessive overtime fatigues an officer," said Rich Roberts, spokesman for the International Union of Police Associations." And if ever there was a profession that you need to be sharp at. it's police LOGAN (AP) -Each morning, an estimated 9,000 southeast Ohio residents hit the road for commutes of up to two hours to jobs in the Columbus area or West Virginia. Now three Appalachian counties are trying to reduce the number of long-distance commuters by attracting employers to the region. "There are no jobs down home that you can get benefits at and a decent pay wage," said Shelley Sullivan, 46, of the Athens County village of Buchtel. Sullivan's day begins each morning at 4 when she prepares for her 90minute commute to Columbus. Others commute to Fairfield County near Columbus and to Wood County in West Virginia . In Ohio, the Governor's Office of Appalachia and Athens, Hocking and Meigs counties are financing the $55 ,000 campaign, called 33 Wotks - named after state Rt. 33 that runs through the area. It includes newspaper, radio and billboard advertising, direct mail information and a planned work." The union. which represents 80,000 active duty officers, is spearheading overtime-related lawsuits in C leveland; Milwaukee; Raleigh, N.C.;Santa Ana, Calif; and Brookline, Mass. The union says departments are short-staffed and not keeping pace with growing cities.And they claim that some department heads would rather save money by paying overtime instead of hiring more officers. "We constandy have t_o deal with this;• Roberts said."Some may ignore it. Some may resent it. But like it or not, it's the law of the land," The lawsuit filed against Defiance in U.S. Dl!trict Court in Thlcdo seeks unspecified monetary damages. AU but four of the city's 24 full-time officers joined the lawsuit. Defiance, a town of about 20,000 ptcmle, is about SO miles southwest ofToledo. City Attorney David Williams , said the department is willing to contpensate the officers for overtime, but it can't afford to offer time off because of staffing problems. "If we could give it to them we'd love to, but there's a public safety issue there," he said. Resignations and retirements have outpaced the city's ability to fill officer vacancies in a tight labor market. Small-town departments have trouble keeping officers who can often find higher paying police jobs in suburban areas, Williams said. Williams said he thinks the officers are simply frustrated by the amount of overtime they have to work and hopes both sides can setde out of court. If they can't work out an ;greement, Williams thinks a U.S. Supreme Court decision supports the city's position . The court ruled 6-3 in May that'state and local governments can control when their employees take compensatory time off if no pre-existing labor agreement says otherwise. Web site. "We face a perception that because it's Appalachia, it's harder to do business here. It's just not true;· said Bill Arnett, president of the Athens Area Chamber of Commerce. The campaign promotes the area's vac3nt space and land, available work force and a highway system that's being upgraded. Joy Padgett, director of the Governor's Office of Appalachia,. said the region is not trying to steal workers from anyone. "We're saying, 'If you ·have production needs, please consider southeastern Ohio. Once you get to know us, you'll love us and you won't want to leave,"' Padgett told The Columbus Dispatch for a Sunday story. Unemployment ' in southeast Ohio often is higher than in other portions of the state. In June, 4.1 percent of Ohioans were unemployed. It was nearly double that for Hocking and Meigs counties.

Civil righU case not dismissed COLUMBUS (AP) - A federal lawsuit accusing police officers of . civil rights violations should not be dismissed, a federal magistrate has recommended. · But U.S. Magistrate Norah McCann King did rule that the Justice Deparrment should have to prove the city was responsible for viola,:.lions by its officers, which would make it harder for the department .to prove its case. King made the recommendations friday in her report to U.S. Dis. trict Judge John Holschuh, who is expected to decide later this year whether the case should be dismissed. The Lawsuit against the city and its police department was filed . October 21 . It accuses officers of abusing civil rights by filing false charges, using excessive force and conductmg illegal •earches and , ·seizures. The city and the Fraternal Order of Police have asked that the case be dismissed. They said Congress overstepped its authority by allow'ing the Justice Deparrment to sue cities when officers violate citizens' civil rights. They also contended the allegations were too vague. King disagreed, finding that the law is valid and that a lawsuit does not have go into detail about the allegations. Blade associate editor dies " TOLEDO (AP) - S.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The fences around the nation's nuclear weapons plants became new dividing line's this year. Those who worked inside the · plant gates and were unknowingly exposed to substances that have made them sick found patrons on Capitol Hill to explain their plight and build support for co mpensation. People outside the gates found sympathy but no well-placed advocates. After months of trying, the nuclear-plant . neighbors still haven't persuaded a single lawmaker to introduce a bill proposing medical monitoring for sick people who lived near plants but weren 't on the payroll of Energy Department contractors. That' failure is striking because Congress takes on hundreds of bills that languish for every one that passes. "There is some frustration on the part of the neighbors but they haven't given up," said Doris Smith, whose family farm is across the street . from the Pantex plant near Amarillo, Texas. Smith has had to sc hool herself in the complicated world of nuclear weapons production, a t~sk helped by a nationwide network of lobbyists , researchers and letter-writers. They Introduced her to other neighbors-turnedactivists such as Lisa Crawford, who organized a successful group around a former weapons plant in Fernald, Ohio. That group got $78 million in 1989 after putting together a strong court case and getting help from members of Congress whose investigations un earthed evidence of uranium releases into the atmosphere. "That's the shining role model," Smith said. Crawford agreed that the Fernald setdement should be a reminder to decision- makers of the high cost of ignoring the pco.ple suffering from illnesses caused by contamination outside the nuclear plant gates. "The government has a responsibility to all these people;· she fo3id. "It's legal, it's moral, it's ethical." C urrent efforts on behalf of nuclear neighbors have been focused on Congress and the Clinton administration. The Energy Department's response was that it doesn't have the <cientific basis yet to accurately identitY exposed populations near all the weapons plants. More than a dozen sites around the country contributed to nuclear weapons production, including three in Ohio - Fernald, the former Mound Plant in Miamisburg a1id the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant in Piketon. Police lawsuits say departments under.rtaffed,ovenNorked Southeast residents commute to other regions for work DEFIANCE (AP) - Working an average of 12 overtime hours a week, police officer Steve Gebhart says he's tired and worries how that affects his safety Gebhart and 19 fellow officers contend in a Lawsuit that the Defiance police department is breaking a federal Labor law that requires it to grant time off requests for overtime worked. Police officers in at least two dozen cities around the nation have filed similar lawsuits, accusing their bosses of breaking promises by forcing them to take money instead . of days off for overtime work. "Excessive overtime fatigues an officer," said Rich Roberts, spokesman for the International Union of Police Associations." And if ever there was a profession that you need to be sharp at. it's police LOGAN (AP) -Each morning, an estimated 9,000 southeast Ohio residents hit the road for commutes of up to two hours to jobs in the Columbus area or West Virginia. Now three Appalachian counties are trying to reduce the number of long-distance commuters by attracting employers to the region. "There are no jobs down home that you can get benefits at and a decent pay wage," said Shelley Sullivan, 46, of the Athens County village of Buchtel. Sullivan's day begins each morning at 4 when she prepares for her 90minute commute to Columbus. Others commute to Fairfield County near Columbus and to Wood County in West Virginia . In Ohio, the Governor's Office of Appalachia and Athens, Hocking and Meigs counties are financing the $55 ,000 campaign, called 33 Wotks - named after state Rt. 33 that runs through the area. It includes newspaper, radio and billboard advertising, direct mail information and a planned work." The union. which represents 80,000 active duty officers, is spearheading overtime-related lawsuits in C leveland; Milwaukee; Raleigh, N.C.;Santa Ana, Calif; and Brookline, Mass. The union says departments are short-staffed and not keeping pace with growing cities.And they claim that some department heads would rather save money by paying overtime instead of hiring more officers. "We constandy have t_o deal with this;• Roberts said."Some may ignore it. Some may resent it. But like it or not, it's the law of the land," The lawsuit filed against Defiance in U.S. Dl!trict Court in Thlcdo seeks unspecified monetary damages. AU but four of the city's 24 full-time officers joined the lawsuit. Defiance, a town of about 20,000 ptcmle, is about SO miles southwest ofToledo. City Attorney David Williams , said the department is willing to contpensate the officers for overtime, but it can't afford to offer time off because of staffing problems. "If we could give it to them we'd love to, but there's a public safety issue there," he said. Resignations and retirements have outpaced the city's ability to fill officer vacancies in a tight labor market. Small-town departments have trouble keeping officers who can often find higher paying police jobs in suburban areas, Williams said. Williams said he thinks the officers are simply frustrated by the amount of overtime they have to work and hopes both sides can setde out of court. If they can't work out an ;greement, Williams thinks a U.S. Supreme Court decision supports the city's position . The court ruled 6-3 in May that'state and local governments can control when their employees take compensatory time off if no pre-existing labor agreement says otherwise. Web site. "We face a perception that because it's Appalachia, it's harder to do business here. It's just not true;· said Bill Arnett, president of the Athens Area Chamber of Commerce. The campaign promotes the area's vac3nt space and land, available work force and a highway system that's being upgraded. Joy Padgett, director of the Governor's Office of Appalachia,. said the region is not trying to steal workers from anyone. "We're saying, 'If you ·have production needs, please consider southeastern Ohio. Once you get to know us, you'll love us and you won't want to leave,"' Padgett told The Columbus Dispatch for a Sunday story. Unemployment ' in southeast Ohio often is higher than in other portions of the state. In June, 4.1 percent of Ohioans were unemployed. It was nearly double that for Hocking and Meigs counties.

The black conductor, who had l:ieen genially collecting tickets, was now standing next to a middle-aged white woman who looked confused: The conductor was trying to explain to her that if she didn 't have a ticket, or didn't have the money to buy one, he'd have to put her , off at the next station - · !25th Street. That thoroughfare is in the center of Harlem. " It's the rule," the conductor said. "I have no choice." The white woman beside me put down the romance novel she had been reading and said, co no one in particular, "He can't put her off on l25th Street!" She rose and strode to where the conductor was still talking to the white woman who now that !looked more carefully - appeared to have had a "co1,1ple p f drinks too many while waiting for the train. My seatmate said loudly, "You cannot put her off at !25th Street! You · cannot! She's in no co ndition to be put off the train!" The conductor looked up, and said indignantly, "What's wrong with !25th Street' I put people off at that station all the time." "Tell me," the conductor sai d to the woman, who saw herself as a good samaritan, "wo uld you be saying this if I were letting a black woman off at !25th Street?'' l n the crowded car, passengers had been talking or reading, but now everyone's attention was focused on the exchange taking pl ace next to the seated woman, apparently without a ticket, who didn't seem aware of the co ntroversy going on over her head.

T., and Jordan NEW YORK - Is it possible that the American co nsu mer, whose hunger ·for more an d more from the marketplace seemed insatiable, is becoming a bit tired, self-victimized by a surfeit of stuff? You can read that into the retail sales figures, which have been fading in recent months. And in some of the computer sales numbers, and in worries about a decline in wireless phone sets. This isn't to say that the economy is in danger from consumer apathy, but it does suggest that some of the joy inight be going out of shopping, which has become the great parti cipation sport for many people. Still, the sluggishness of sales in some areas of the economy is an important factor for the increasing numbers of forecasters who expect economic growth to slow from a furiou s to moderate pace. '.' Stuff," as herein used, refers to cars, boats, houses, computers, TVs, mobile phones, furniture, antiques, art, clothes, bicycles,.motorcycles and scores of games, gadgets and curiosities. It seems understandable that people might wi sh to make up for whatever they had denied them selves in less bountiful times . But it's also logical to anti cipate a day when th ey might h ave their fill . This" is especially so wh en you consider that consumer spending has been exceeding income growth, spurred along by easy money and a widely felt sense that times could only get better. To a great degree, that euphoric feelingthe wealth effect - was, and still is, supported by massive participation in a stock market that seemed only to ri se. N ow we've seen it fall as well . Th e experience of homeowners added to co nfidence.

Houses still sell strongly, but now a record number of households, 67 percent, alre ady are owners. Not that everyone's wish has been fulfilled- but two-thirds have. As with housing sales , car sales also have been at record highs, but 'with annual sales of cars and small trucks running around 17 million during the past two years, dilution of demand is a worry.

The black conductor, who had l:ieen genially collecting tickets, was now standing next to a middle-aged white woman who looked confused: The conductor was trying to explain to her that if she didn 't have a ticket, or didn't have the money to buy one, he'd have to put her , off at the next station - · !25th Street. That thoroughfare is in the center of Harlem. " It's the rule," the conductor said. "I have no choice." The white woman beside me put down the romance novel she had been reading and said, co no one in particular, "He can't put her off on l25th Street!" She rose and strode to where the conductor was still talking to the white woman who now that !looked more carefully - appeared to have had a "co1,1ple p f drinks too many while waiting for the train.

"Tell me," the conductor sai d to the woman, who saw herself as a good samaritan, "wo uld you be saying this if I were letting a black woman off at !25th Street?'' l n the crowded car, passengers had been talking or reading, but now everyone's attention was focused on the exchange taking pl ace next to the seated woman, apparently without a ticket, who didn't seem aware of the co ntroversy going on over her head.

T., and Jordan NEW YORK - Is it possible that the American co nsu mer, whose hunger ·for more an d more from the marketplace seemed insatiable, is becoming a bit tired, self-victimized by a surfeit of stuff? You can read that into the retail sales figures, which have been fading in recent months. And in some of the computer sales numbers, and in worries about a decline in wireless phone sets. This isn't to say that the economy is in danger from consumer apathy, but it does suggest that some of the joy inight be going out of shopping, which has become the great parti cipation sport for many people. Still, the sluggishness of sales in some areas of the economy is an important factor for the increasing numbers of forecasters who expect economic growth to slow from a furiou s to moderate pace. '.' Stuff," as herein used, refers to cars, boats, houses, computers, TVs, mobile phones, furniture, antiques, art, clothes, bicycles,.motorcycles and scores of games, gadgets and curiosities. It seems understandable that people might wi sh to make up for whatever they had denied them selves in less bountiful times . But it's also logical to anti cipate a day when th ey might h ave their fill . This" is especially so wh en you consider that consumer spending has been exceeding income growth, spurred along by easy money and a widely felt sense that times could only get better. To a great degree, that euphoric feelingthe wealth effect - was, and still is, supported by massive participation in a stock market that seemed only to ri se. N ow we've seen it fall as well .

Houses still sell strongly, but now a record number of households, 67 percent, alre ady are owners. Not that everyone's wish has been fulfilled- but two-thirds have. As with housing sales , car sales also have been at record highs, but 'with annual sales of cars and small trucks running around 17 million during the past two years, dilution of demand is a worry.

Once Bobby Labonte caught and then slipped past Rusty Wallace, it was all over. "I know that I had the damnde~t race I've ever had in my life with Bobby Labonte - 75 laps with him four inches off my bumper," Wallace said. " I felt like I was swatting hornets inside that car the whole time. Wallace led 110 ofthe fine 145 laps at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Saturday. But Labonte, the Winston Cup series leader, began his move in Turn 3 of the \46th lap and got alongside Wallace coming off Turn 4. The cars bumped on the front straight and Labonte ducked inside for the lead. "We both got together. I didn't drive down onto him and he didn't come up into me,"Wallace said of the late pass that sent Labonte to the checkered flag by a margin of 4.229 seconds. "I think when you are going that fast, the air tends to pull you tog~ther. "Turn 3 was my worst turn all day, and I knew he could get me. He got under me,"Wallace said. It's . no consolation. of course. but the 110 laps at the head of the pack gave Wallace a Bric kyard 400 record for the most by a non wmner.
