For seven or eight years, the town people were only infonned by what they read in the local newspaper. We believed what was written in our newspaper. We believed the TPRSD board's promises . The TPRSD board said a person could not rely on the local newspaper. My response to the board was, if the local newspaper was incQr.rect, it would be in your best interest to make a co"ection. No corrections were ever made to t.he rtewspaper. The residents were unable to attend TPRSD meetings because we were never infonned of when they were. This system should have been economical, feasible, fair and reasonable for every resident. lnfonnation from the newspaper qupted Frank Lavelle, TPRSD attorney, as saying that the TPRSD has given us all the records we ask.ed for. Then I why did the people pay $750 to Attorney Pat Story to obtain records because of the violation of the Ohio Public Records Law (Ohio Revised Code I 149.43)? Also, Frank Lavelle stated our questions were always answered. We n.Ver received a straight answer to any of our questions. Mr. Lavelle also •' I stated that the TPRSD ·had been subject to innuendo, rumors and false infontuition, but I feel that Mr. Lavelle described just how the residents have been treated. · Now, to the people who don't feel we have accomplished anything.

'TWo, a $300,000 Rural Development loan turned into a grant, which lowered our monthly bills from $46 to $35.50 a month. The TPRSD Board never told the residents their bills would have been $46 a month.

Where do the political roads lead? Perhaps not where you think. At least two questionable po!itical i?eas .are in play :. 1) ~ill ton ts a great politiCian, cha ing. 2) Republicans are in big trouble, outof-t uch hectoring moralists. Both ideas are much ted. Consider some polilical axioms: · OD POLITICIANS GET LOTS OF . Clinton won the nomination in 1992 against second-tier Democrats. In the general elections of 1992 and 1996 Clinton did not get a majority of the popular vote: 43.0 percent, and 49.2 percent respectively (albeit with third party competition from Ross Perot). Clinton's opponents, George Bush and Bob Dole, presented themselves as t~o of. the w?rst candidates with the worst campaigns. mall h1storx, GOOD PRESIDENTIAL POLITICIANS HELP THEIR PARTY. When Clinton came into · office there were solid Democratic majorities in both the Senate_and House. On Clinton's watch, Republicans gained control of both. The GOP has held th e House now-for three consecuti -ve- term~~.which hasn 't happened for Republicans for 64 years' ' WINNING IS BETJ'ER THAN LOSING , Despite reports to the contrary, Republicans did win in 1998. Allegedly out-of-louch GOP House candidates got 51 percent of the vote, often an important number in politics. Republican governors, the golden govern9ts, have also been winners during Clinton's lime, Their number went from 18 to.31, now representing 70 percent of the American population. POLLS ARE MANY-SPLENDORED THINGS. Clinton's popularity is high. More than 60 percent of Americans today believ.e he is "doing a good job" as president. His ratings soared in early 1998 --before the Lewinsky scandal hit. But at that point, with nearly everything going righl in America, approval ratings for just about every politician, political body and institulion soared. ~From October 1997to January 1998, approval rattngs for Congress rose from 36 percent to 56 percent.) Clinton's approval ratings remain high now, but only about 20 percent of Americans think he is "honest and trustworthy." GOOD POLITICIANS GET WHAT THEY WANT. Clinton wants AI Gore elected president. But Gore runs w'ay behind Republican front·runner Gov. George W. Bush, even before the ugly, ugly story about Juanita Broadderick (How does Gore deal with that? ·Q. "Mr. Vice President, the man you've recently called a great· president has been accused of rape, what is your reaction?" A. "The pre~ident says ,it ?idn't happen, and this great president doesn the.") Clinton also hopes to elect a Democratic Congress. Republicans have indeed suffered in the polls following the impeachment fracas. But that political dust should be allowed to settle before assaying it. Following the rape charge, it's harder than ever to see how Democrats can make much of itc ("My opponentvoted to impeach an alleged rapist.") GOOD POLITICIANS ARE NOT ALWAYS IN A DITCH. GOOD POLITIC!f\NS, ARE NOT CALLED GOOD POLITICIANS. The last thing a wonderful politician wants to be called is a "wonderful politician:" " Statesman" is go6d. "Great ·president" is better. · GOOD PRESIDENTS DO IMPORTANT' THINGS. Clinton has been a pretty good president. 1 give him a B-. Others might put it higher. By my lights he did a heroic job in getting trade .' legislation passed, over liberal Democralic objeclions. The welfare reform law of .1996, enacted over liberal Democratic objections, may constilute a central change in American life, for the better. Clinton gets much credit for it, along with the .Gingrich Congress. Clinton also deserves tnuch ' : credit for the recent economic ;;uccess. He did rei; · : atively little, which is not easy, and just what a , : ·"pro-business " president should do. Like a physi- . , cian, a president's first task in the economic realni · : is "do no harm." He hasn't. .•·. : THEREFORE WHAT? Clinton is not seen to : · be doing a good job because he's a charmer, ~ , great politician or a rogue savant. He does well because times are good and he has done some important things, most of which come under the heading of "moving his party to the center," with Republican cooperation. · For 13 months, while impeachmenl was on the anvi,l, Clinton's political •soul was held in mortgage by the left wing of the Democrati~ Party. Ia:: terms ofpol1cy, Clinton and t~e Republicans wer~· : frozen in place. With apparent cli>sure on · impeachment, Clinton and the GOP are unbound.

If allowed to stand, the tariffs of 100 percent cffecfively would double the cost·ofthe targeted European goods, pricing them out of the American market. The administration is seeking to retaliate against European producers by an amount equal to the lost sales claimed by U.S.-based banana companies, including Cincinnatibased Chiquita Brands International Inc. because of European barriers found by the World Trade Organization to violate global trade rules. But European officials said the United States is violating WTO rules by unilaterally. seeking to impose the punitive tariffs before the WTO has ruled on them.

Accordins to State Sen. Mike Shoemaker, cu"ent new school building need totals .$16 billion. But as a member of the state's School Facilities Commission, which determines whiCh districts get aSsistance based on their wealth, Shoemaker knows the process of determining the need is slow, and also leaves room for repetition. Unless there's an explosion of population or business d~vclopment in whl!_l the commission considers a poor school district, that district stays poor, and is therefore again eligible for new construction dollars. Consequently, Shoemaker has proposed increased bonding ~uthority by the state to speed the process of new construction, and perhaps get to other needs further down the list. The idea is worthy of consideration and we can hope it might get past some of the obstacles, politically and philosophically, it will face in the legislature. Anyway, it's an answer to part of the problem of school equalization while citizens and lawmakers await the outcome of the legal wrangling over the funding issue. · The majority of the court may ultiniately agree with Chief Justice Thomas Moyer's belief that the court only inlerprets the law and doesn't ereate public policy, and shuffle the matter back to the legislature for a solution; but until that day arrives, we must hope thai someone, be.it GovernorTaft or the advbcacy groups the issue has attracted, takes a role in finding that solution. · .

CHARLOTIE, N.C. (AP) - The ·nation 's No. I team is about to gel :one of its best players back in the lineup. Duke's Shane Battier, sidelin ed Jor the past week with a severely ;sprained left ankle , went through a one-.hour practice at full speed ;Wednesday night arid reported no ·problems. · Barring any overnight complica;tions from pain or swelling, Battier ·said he expected to play tonight :when 'the Blue Devils (29- 1) meet ·Virgini a (14-15) in the first round of ·the Atlantic Coast Conference tour:nament. 'I . Battier sat out Duke's regular-sea:son finale against North Caroli na, ;but the Blue Devils still won by 20. Nonetheless, he cautioned against saying hi s return would give the Blue Devils an overwhelming advantage against a Virginia team they defeo!ted twice by 46-point margin s. "Virginia has nothing to lose," he said . "They can come in and play and not worry about making 'mistakes. The pressure is all on us.'' Battier, a sophomore forward widely recogni zed as one of the nation 's best defenders, said that as recently as Monday 'it appeared unlikely he would be able to play against the Cavaliers. " I can really feel it day by day comin g' back to me. I've been very enco uraged by the improvement, especially in the last two days," he said. " I basically went from not being able to even get up on my tiptoes to being able to JUmp." Battier planned to practice on a limited basis Wednesday night, but the ankle felt so good early in the session that he decided to keep testing it. By the time the session ended, Battier had worked up a good sweat by taking part in all the team drills. He dunked ·several times, hit a n~m ­ lier of three-pointers, set some picks, made some solid pl ays on defense and ran the floor well, loo'king all the while like he wasn ' t bothered bv the high ankle sprain. In fact, Battier appeared much more at ease than c.oach. Mike Krzyzewsk.i, who is scheduled for hip replacement surgery as . soon as the season ends. Krzyzewski limped around the practice lloor and alternately leaned on the scorer 's table or sat on the Duke bench to rest the sore hip. "I just can' t move around well. " he said, breaking into a wide sm ile. " But it doesn't hurt my thinking." The coach said he would not start Battier, but would use him according to feel. "If he's feeling good and I'm feel ing good ," Krzyze wslci said , "he'll pl ay a lot. " . 2~ 1'~· .HI . 7 l!' I. 1'<1.

When Brown and Will drew opposing club's attention, Matt Bi sse ll stepped forward. He, too, exploded for a couple 20plus games and has handled the ball well against opposing team's pressure this year. At point guard has been Jeremy Casto, who has averaged double-digits during the second half of the season. Casto has done a good job running the offense, and hi s shooting has been a big spark, going down the stretch. Casto is most effective shooting off the penetrating dribble. Next, comes brawny lad, Eric Smith, who anchors Eastern's inside game. Known as the "animal ," Smith is a good shooter and rebounder. Senior Joe Dillon, has been strong off the bench , and filled in well while Easter,n went through the flu stage. Dillon, slowed last year with a complete knee rebuild, has been a key asset to Eastern's success. ,, Josh Broderick, Matt Caldwell, and Steve Weeks have come off the bench with steady play. Caldwell is th e shooter in the tri o, whil e Wee ks has added some inside offense off th e bench and some rebounding, while Broderick is known for his stead y. aggressive play. Erron Aldridge and Beau Bailey add defen sive strength · off th e bench and some quickness oil the press. Matt Boy les has added steady play also in coming off th e bench.

This year, some 12 years later, Eastern hopes to get the job done with first -year mentor Howie Caldwell at the rei gns. It sound s unusual to dub Caldwell as a firstyear mentor. but after a 23-year stint of success at SoU)hern, Caldwell has nestled into a co mfonablc role at Eastern. Eastern is led by 17 -point scorer Joe Brown, who can shoot and drive, mainly within the perimeter, however, he is capable of moving outwardly for the trey.

With Iverson scoring 24 points despite a bout with the flu, the Philadelphia 76ers defeated Chicago 102-86 Wednesday night. The Sixers have a six-game winning streak for the first time since 1991, also the last time they started 10-5. They clinched ·• victory in the season series with the Bulls for the first time since the 1990-91 season. " He looked sick this afternoon," Sixers coach Lany Brown said of Iverso n. "Once he got on the court, he didn't look sick to me. " Or to the Bulls, who simply don 't have the weapons to be a threat most · nights. "It's tough right now," Toni Kukoc said. "It's different. But the 12 of us have to face it and turn things around." Iverson , averaging 28.8 points, is the main reason the Sixers appear to have turned things around. Mall Geiger he-lped with 21 points, a season-high 13 rebounds and a careerhigh five steals, but this was Iverson 's show. Despite feeling undei the weather, Iverson was the focal point on nearly every possession while the game was still close.

After all, the 1997 rookie of the year in NASCAR's top series realizes there are still 32 races to go this season. " I think this race team is up to the task of running for the Winston Cup points," Skinner said. "I don 'tlcnow if the driver is at this point." That 's understandable, considering ·the 41 -year-old Californian has never won on the tour and has never finished higher than 21st in the standings, which he accomplished · last season. _ Besides his rookie award , his main claims to fame so far are the 1995 NASCAR truck series championship, victories in the last two nonpoints exhibition races in Japan and being seven-time series -champion Dale Earnhardt 's teammate at Richard Childress Racing. But Skinner is confident heading into Sunday's Las Veg·as 400, particularly after 1999 began with a fourth-place finish in the Daytona 500 followed by a sixth in Rockingham, N.C. " We're excited," Skinner said, explaining that the outcome at The Rock proves his team can turn things around at tracks where they haven 't had much experience or success.

Then came three crashes in he next six races. The last one- at Texas Motor Speedway in April.- left him with a concussion , fractures to his left wrist and shoulder, and a torn-up left knee . Skinner missed three r-aces. Then, · with Earnhardt also struggling , Childress switched crew chiefs, putting the more-established !:any McReynolds with Skinner. The lesser-known Kevin Hamlin moved to Earnhardt. It's worked. Skinner moved up 17 spots in the points race by the end of the season, and Earnhardt showed signs of regaining his winning form . "Its chemistry," Skinner said. "Sometimes you meet somebody and you ' re on the same wavelength. Larry McReynolds is a racer through and through ." Skinner said McReynolds, who has 23 victories as a crew ·chief," will coach his driver, motivate him when he 'needs it or pat him on the back. "l think Dale and his experience, with as many years as he 's had in the Winston Cup ranks, he didn 't really need that as much as he just needed somebody he could talk to about the race car, put the changes he wanted under there and go on," Skinner said. "Larry's style fit me a ·lot better. "Kevin Hamlin is more laid back .. That's what Dale needed . I think that swap .was good fni both teams." Jeremy Mayfield was an early season points leader last year. Like Skinner, he found himself on top of the standings before winning for the first time on,the circuit. " The main thing is for him to remember it 's a long, long season," said Mayfield, who eventually won last June at Pocono International ' Raceway - the final of' his four weeks in the points lead.

By DAVE HOWLAND Associated Press Writer BOSTON (AP) - The generation that raised its kids on the four basic food groups may be lacking some of the basics of good nutrition: vitamins, minerals and water. . A group of nutritionists at Tufts University is recommending that healthy people 70 years and older drink more water, eat foods that are more rich in nutrients and increase the amount of fiber tn their dtets. To make their point, the nutritionists have proposed for seniors a modified version of the food pyramid, which replaced the basic four - the milk group, meat group, bread-cereals group and vegetablefruit group. The new recommendations, to be published in the March' issue of The Journal of Nutrition, are aimed at helping seniors hve healthier lives while slowing the onset .of medical p~oblems assoctated with agtng, including hean disease, osteoporosis and hypertension. .

" I fou'nd there was no difference between children whose mothers were employed versus children whose mothers were not em ployed dur10g the first three · years, " satd Elizabeth Harvey, a psychologist at the Umverstty of Massachusetts at Amherst. " Be10g employed is not going to harm the children." Harvey's study, published in the M~h issue of the journal Developmental Psychology, came to a different conclusion than some earlier studies of the same group of chtldren. The new work exarm~ed the chtldren at a later age, 12 years old. This suggests, said David Eggebeen of Pennsylvania State University, who co-authored an earlier study, that problems detected in chtldren of working mothers at age 3 and 4 may 'have gone away by the time the chi ldren were 12. " Harvey's study suggests that the number of hours spent away from home is not as important as the quality of parenting," said Lindsay Chase-Lansdale, an associate professor of human development at the Un1versity of Chicago. She called the Harvey study I · " an important contribution " but not the final answer on issues re lating to chi ldren and working mothers. In the study, Harvey used data from the National Longttudinall · S~rvey of Youth, an in-depth mtervtew study of 12,000 ~oung peo. pie betwee n the ages of 14 and 22 that started in 1979 Harvey concentrated on ch ildren born to the women in the study after 1980. The chtldren were assessed every other year from 1986 to 1994. · There were more than 6,000 chi ldren of all races 10 Harvey's study, most evaluated more than once. The youngest c hild assessed was 3, the oldest 12. , Harvey used standard psychological tests to evaluate chtldren's language development, academic achtevement, sel f-esteem and behavtor p10blem s. Some of the results were based on repons of the parents. In compari son wtth chtldren ol mot hers who dtd not work, Harvey said she found no statisucally stgnificant difference 10 any of the meas ures · However, when compar10g children wnhin the group of mothers who had outside employment , Harvey found very slight differences that were dependent on how many hours the mflther worked and how soon she started work after the child was born. Some women in the study returned to work as qutck.ly as four weeks after gtvtng btrth, while others wa1ted three years. " Returning to work later and having more breaks 10 employment was assoctated wit~ more compltant children," said Harvey. "The children (of later-working mothers),, were better behaved" between the ages of three and four , But, she noted, " the difference was very tiny and disappeared by the age of five ," she said. ' Another slight difference, apparent only in the scientific tests, was linked to the number of hours per week worked by the mothers. the re searcher said. "The more hours the mother worked per week dunng the first three years, the lower the chtldren's language development and academtc achievement," Harvey said " But, again, these effects were very ttny - so small you would have a hard time detecting them " By the age of I0, the differen ce in academic achieveme nt went away . She satd the language development difference " never went away in the data, but got continuously smaller by the age of 12." Fundamentally, said Harvey, the study suggests issues exist in ratsi ng children that are more than outstde employment of the mother. These tnclude the quality of the parent-child relationship and the quality of the child 's day-care arrangement, she satd, " The message should be that being at home during the early years, or betng emp loyed during those years, are both good choices," Harvey said . " Both lan result in healthy, well-developed children ." · ~ .

NEW YORK(AP)- Closure for Monicagate ? Don't · hold your breath. What was most notable about Barbara Walters' much-hyped interview with Monica Lewinsky was how it raised questions about an unknowable future, rather than resolving the bi zarre twists 0'f the past. Not that both parties to this ratings sweeps spectacular didn ' t shine in their prescribed roles. For Wednesday 's special "20120" edition, ABC News star Walters excelled as the caring but swnetimes stern aunt trying to get to the bollom of this White House mess. " You have been described as a bimbo, a stalker and a seductress," Walters began, looking sad to have Ia say it. "Describe yourself. " And they were off and running. ·For the interview, taped in Manhattan on Feb. 20, Walters and Ms. Lewinsky sat facing each other from plush wing chairs in the sludio set of a comfortable living room. But the program also wove in file footage and other vi suals, as well as Walters in her other ro le as om ni scient narrator laying out the saga o( Oval Office shenanigans. But by the final fade -out, after two interminable hours (and more commercials than a viewer co uld count), the lasting impression dwelled not so much on what had transpired , but on what comes next in the celebrity pageant Walters presides over. Who will be the next notch on her belt? Meanwhile, Ms. Lewinsky showed herself 10 be poised and well-spoken, and almost eerily prepared. She claimed to have spent much of the past year worrying and knitting scarves.

"The famous blue dress " Walters said a little later. "What dress?" Ms. Lewinsky replied with a laugh. When Walters asked Ms. Lewinsky whether Clinton was a sensuous man, she answered, ''I' II get in trouble. " Responded Walters : "Not in any more trouble than you've already been· in, Monica. You have immunity here." • l).ut summing up the past year at the program's close, Ms. Lewinsky lost her composure. Effectively. She was brought to tears when she talked about her and her parents considering suicide during tl\e ordeal. . " People· have no idea what lhi!i, has done, " she said, glancing heavenward, her voice choking - "that behind the name Monica Lewinsky there's a person and there's a family, and so much pain has been caused by all this."

Spanish, and college English, so several people were surprised when I decided to take a vocational class during my senior year. , Most saw my choice as a disadvantage to furthering my co llege education ; most thought I was making a bad choice and that I would regret it later. I am proud to say that choosing the Meigs High School Nursing Assistant class is one of the best choices I have ever made. Through the class, I learned skills and had hands-on e>periences that I would have never learned from a textbook. I am receiving continuous education while employed as a CNA (Certified Nursi ng Assistant) and going to school. Being in college prep and vocational classes has given me "the best of both worlds." I have a strong, stable, and respectable academic background as well as knowledge and skill s. Being in a vocational course does not exclude me from other school activities as most thought it would. I am a member of ' the National Honor Society, co-editor of the Marauder Yearbook, and vice · president of o ur Student ColHlcil. Since my second semester job began in January, I have received a taste of the work force and the health care field . I am currently employed at Yeterans Memorial Hospital Skilled Nursing! Extended Care Fac ility. ' Working with public health exposes me to several c hallenges and know I. edgeable skill s that will allow me to successfully pursue life . Besides basic nursing ski lls, I have had to learn the roles of responsibility, time management, maturity, and co-\Vorkerlsupervisor relationships . All in all, thro ugh the nursing program I feel that I am already one step ahead, and I n_ow know for sure that I want to wo rk in health care. I am going to continue working as a CNA while attending the University of Rio Grande to major in nursing . As for the nursing pfogram itself, the class is two periods of related stud- . ies in the morning and four periods of laboratory work in the afternoons. Starling the second semester, our four periods in the afternoon are substituted with actual work experience at one of three Meigs County long-term care facilities .

Courses offer job opportunities The Meigs Vocational School offers stutle nts opportuniti es for careers in a variety oftechnological and business fields using computers. Word processing and clfmputerized accounting are among the specialized programs offered at Meigs. While close'iy related the two fields emphasize different skills. · The computer- word processin g program is designed for students interesjed in careers in busi ness. The program also serves as a basis for hi gher education in a related· field. Many of the students go on to college. In the program students work with computers, electronic calculators, transcription machines and .o ther offi ee equipment. They become proficient in the use of popular business software such as Microsoft Word, Access, Excel, and Power Point. In addition, they receive instruc- tion in communiCation skill s, accounting, records control , busi- ness math and business ·)Tlanagement. Attention is also given to personality development ,and human relations skills that would be required of those entering the business world. ·Students may also quali fy for early placement during their seni or year. With the early place ment option, they may work half of the day and attend classes half . of the day. This gives students valuable experience which often leads to full or part time emp lOYment. The program has proven successful for many gmduates. These include Debbie WerryEvans, who is a senior secretary io the Dean of the College of Business at Ohio University; Lorena Oiler Turley, an office ,manager and staff accountant for Smith & As'sociates in Pomeroy; and An~i e Pullins, a teller at Farmers · Bank, Pome'roy. Students in computerized accounting are trained in office practices and procedures relating to business bookkeeping and accounting. The main areas of study include accounts payable, accounts receivable, preparation of financial statements, ,payroll and various other financial reports, payroll records and banking transactions. ' · .. In addition to an in-depth knowledge of accounting, students develop skills in typing, records management, communications and public rel~tioris. Due to the high dem and in today's society for infonned and trained employees, students trained in the world processing and computerized . accounting programs' are given ample opportunity to acquire the basic manipul ati ve skill s, · technology knowledge, and positive personal qualities and attitudes that are so necessary for success in the business world , VICA OFFICI;:RS - John Davidson~ .center, president of the Vocatlonallnduatrlal Clubs of America at Melga High School, Is also the local chapter's first state presl~nt.

Senate and House Republican leaders agreed to a broad outline of their plan Thursday, capping weeks of private meetings. Republicans hope it will h~lp them win their battle with President Clinton over how to use massive budget surpluses expected for the foreseeable future. · It also seems to reflect a truce between ,House and Senate Republicans, whose bickering over culling taxes last year resulted in Congress' first failure in 24 years to produce its own budget. The ~ment spells out general budget principles for fiscal. 2000, which begins Oct. 1, and leaves questions about mal)y details for later. But even before the leaders began selling it to rank-and-file Republicans, . DemocriiS derided it. "I'm not su·re that what they"re proposing in this budget is possible without a good deal.Q[ smoke and mir- rors," said Sen!lte Minority Leider Tom Daschle, DS.D. " We're going to be looking.particularly to see if this plan ~~ anything to "rengthen the si:tlvency of Social . Security ' and Medicare, as' the president's plan does," said White .Ho!~Sci spollesinan Barry Toiv, Senate Budget Committee Chairman Pete Doinenici, R-N.M., and House Budget Committe~ Chairman John Kasich, R-Ohio; hope to push a detailed plan reflecting the agreement through their panels within two weeks. The GOP proposal promises to set aside $1.8 trillion in projected stirpluses over the next decade for debt reductton, or to buttress Social Security and Medicare if those 'programs are overhauled. . · · They declared that exceeded the amount the Clinton's budget, proposed last month, would reserve by'$150 bil· lion, according to the.Congressional Budget Office. And they cited CBO figures saying Clinton would only use SB percent of next year's· $137 billion Social Security surplus for the giant pension program. "He's running around saying. he's the one saving Social Security," said Domenlci, one of the architects of the GOP plan. "If saving the trust fund and not spending .it is th~ test, we're 100 pen:ent pure, and he's 58 perc::ent 0 used for tax cuts, and they prevailed. pure." As a result, next year 's tax reduction would likely be By selting .aside thai money, Republicans were hoping to protect themselves from Democratic' accusations relatively small because lawmakers would have to finq that they want 10 divert surpluses from Social Security savings and new revenues to pay for them. The cut will probably be· about $15 billion next year and 'from $150 and use the money for tax cuts for the wealthy. . Clinton hps had the field virtually to himself since billion to $190 billion over the next five years, surging sending Congress his proposed $1.77 trillion budget. In to $700 billion to $900 billion over the next decade, said it, he proposed setting aside most of the expected sur- Republicans who spoke on condition of anonymity. Republicans also said their plan would live withig . pluses for buttressing Social Security and Medicare, and next year 's spending limit of roughly $550 billion for spending the rest on new federally subsidiz,ed personal retirement accounts as well as on an array of defense and discretionary spending. That category covers all annually approved defenSI! social programs. · Un'il now, House and Senate Republicans had and domestic programs.but excludes automatic benefits clashed over how much, if any, of the surpluses to use to such as welfare and payments to holders of federal debt. finance the tax cuts that many in the party consider their The limit was enacted as part of the 1997 budget-balancing pact between Clinton and Congress. · hallmark.
