The original tests requi~d vehicles to run on rollers f or a maximum of four minutes at speeds of up to about SS mph.

North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Kim Gye Gwan said his government was ~·very happy" with TuesdaY's agreement. He might have good reason in addition to the spuds. The United'States agreed that in return for the right to inspect the Kumchang-ni underground site, it would help North Korea increase potato yields as a step "to improve political and economic relations between the .two countries." Food shonages and faminet:elated illnesses have 'killed up to 2 million ofNonh Korea's 23 million people during the past three years, according to U.S. coe!'essional estimates. · While insisting food donations would 'not be part of any deal, the . United States last year pledged 500,000 tons of additional food aid to Nonh Korea in response to an . appeal for donations by the U.N. ·World Food Program. Not all of the 500,000 tons has been delivered, but a U.S. official said the reamining amount would be shipped to Nonh Korea. The World Food Program is - seeking 200,000 additional tons in unfulfilled pledges made last year by other countries and the Clinton administration is considering that request, said the official, who spoke in Washington on condition of anonymity. South Korean media, quoting unidentified South Korean Foreign . Ministry sources today, said Washington agreed to give an additional 600,000 tons of food and ease economic sanctions against the communist state. The World FO<ld Program, is expected to issue another worldwide appeal in June after an assessment of Nonh Korea's needs this Spring. Henry Sokolski, executive director of The NonprQliferation Policy Education Center in Washington, said the 500,000 tons of grain will cost U.S . taxpayers $165 million annually - " well more than the $300 million." "It appears that we are pouring good U.S . food aid down a Nonh Korean hole," said House International Relations Committee Chairman Benjamin Gilman, R-N. Y. He supponed the agreement but said it "smacks of a 'food for access' deal, which could lead to fun her provocative actions on the pan of the Nonh Koreans to exton further concessions from the U.S." The United States is also supplying Pyongyang with nearly half of its heavy oil under a 1994 agreement to fr~eze 'what Washington believed was North Korea's promising nuclear weapons program .. . By JOHN DIAMOND Aaaoclated Preaa Writer WASHINGTON Nuclear weapons secrets could ieak to China inadvertently, FBI Director Louis Frech says, and the Energy Oepanment is taking steps to make sure that a casual e-mail or fax doesn't give away sensitive military secrets. As the Clinton administration and Congress struggled to close holes in the security surrounding the nation's nuclear weapons laboratories, top officials said sophisticated spies might not be the only outlet for classified information on nuclear weapons. Freeh told a House hearing Wednesday that the FBI still is trying to determine whether a leak to China of weapons information from Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico occurred through the actual passing of documents or simply from viewing and memorizing information that was seen or read. Frech said he could not rule out information getting into Chinese hands by ways in which a person "is not intending to tr"-nsmit secret information." . . Sometimes "information gets transferred between 'two ·scientists, and at least· one of them ... had· no intent at all to transfer top secret · information," making the investigalions more difficult, Frech said. Security at federal weapons labs has been troublesome for years, the FBI chief said. "The culture has not been a security-conscious, or certainly never a counterintelligence security-conscious one," he said. "That's been the greatest vulnerability." · Seeking to change that culture, Energy Secretary Bill Richardson imposed new security measuies foremail and other electronic communications from the national weapons labs Wednesday. He also ordered an . internal investigation of allegations that a depanment official was prevented from briefing Congress on evidence of Chinese espionage.

Korea recovers sunken spy boat SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - South Korea's navy recovered a Nonh Korean ~py boat Wednesday that had gone down in a,gunbattle offthe southern coast three months ago. At least two severely decomposed bodies, beUeved to be North Korean crewmen, were found inside, said Lt. CoL Chung Ji-yong, a Defense Ministry spokesman. After several. unsuccessful attempts in rough seas, nine divers reached the boat, 62 miles off shore and 400 feet under water, and attached a cable to the ropes they had earlier tied around ihe craft,navy officials said.

Instead, he said, he and two assistants at the meeting suggested that McDaniel or his client make an offer specifying what Mrs. McDougal would be able to testify about; so the Whitewater prosecutor's office might consider making a deal by lening Mrs. McDougal plead guilty to a relatively minor charge. , But no such offer was ever fonhcoming from Mrs. McDougal or her lawyer, Ewing said. Her position was that she had done nothing wrong, he said, and would therefore not agree to plead guilty to any charge, even a mis· demeanor. Ewing satd he drew up the draft indictment against Mrs. Clinton sometime after September 1996. Early that year, Mrs. Clinton's long-sought Jaw firm billing records mysteriously surfaced in the White House, reve~l ing that she had worked on a failed land development that James McDougal was try· ing to use to prop up his failing S&L.

Duke did not fare as well in the 1996 Senate race because an arch-con· servative Republican, Woody Jenlcins, drew votes from Duke's base, though not enough to beat Democrat Mary Landrieu.

The media and Hollywood are controlled by Jews, he says, assening that "any open-minded reader who reads both Me in Kampf and the Talmud would find the Talmud far more intolerant." At a luncheon speaking engagement in Baton Rouge recently, Duke spoke of "equal rights for all, but I'm not willing to let my country become a third. world nation. We want to live in a Christian world." He also tackled illegal immigration and criticized the Postal Ser~ice for issuing commemorative stamps in January honoring Malcolm X.

In a 3-0 ruling Thursday, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the couple had a binding contract with Celeb Sales, which promised them $1 million in November 1993 but paid only $250,000. Celeb Sales planned to market Roseanne "Roseanne" and "Tom" lines of clothing for larger people. The company claimed the Arnolds undermined the deal by generating bal) pub-· licity. After the pair sued the company, Celeb Sales countersued for $24 million, contending the couple reneged on an agreement to market the clothing on cable television. U.S. District Judge Harry Hupp dismissed the company's fraud claim, and a jury found that Celeb Sales had violated its contract. NEW YORK (AP)- Duane Allman's only child has sued his record company for at least $1 million, charging that her late father's estate is owed royalties for his work on the. "Lay Ia" recordings.

On Thursday, they gaye the film a dubious "Hackademy Award" for the comedy's portrayal of tobacco use, particularly for mingling cigarettes and a romantic scene. ·"This is exactly the glamorous portrayal that we want Hollywood to cut out of the movies," said judge Don Lundy, 18, of Hollywood High School. .

By MICHELLE FAUL • Associated Press Writer . SAN JUAN. Puerto Rico - Two balloonists rode a jet stream full throttle across the Atlantic today, toward their ultimate quest: to be the first to ; soar around the world in a balloon without stopping. ·Tension and excitement mounted after Brian Jones of ·Britain and Bertrand · Piccard of Switzerland soared about 100 miles north of Puerto Rico 'Otursday afternoon and caught the long -awaited jet stream eastward. "Everythin g is running like a well-krown Swiss watch," Jones said today in a computer message to his colleagues in Switzerland. At midnight. the big silver balloon was halfway across the Ail antic, sail ing swiftly toward its finish line in northwest Afrtca at 88 mph and an altitude of 32,670 feet. · " We're feeli ng like horses that can smell their stable," Brian Smith, the . air traffic controller for the project, told 'the Associated Press in a telep h on~ conversation from· a makeshift control center at Geneva airport. Cristine Delamo, a team member in Geneva, said, "We've b~en planting flags on a. world map as they have progressed - and the fl!I@S are almost · starting to touch ." Jones, a 51-year-old balloon instructor from Britain, and Piccard, a 41 year-old Swiss physician, lifted off from the Swiss Alps on March I, drifted down to the Atlantic coast of North Africa and launched their trek east. If all goes as planned, the balloonists expect to cross the 9 degrees west longit udinal finish line Saturday, when th~y should reach Africa's northwest coast at Mauritania. If they reach that poin t, they wi ll have conquered one of aviatio n's most elus ive goals. . The pilots are hop in g that they will be able to 'touch down at the pyramids in Egypt. But metcurolog ists said a more likely landing spot is fanner west, in Mali . Landtn~ is expected early Sunday in Nonh Africa .(late -Saturday 01- eai"ly Sunday EST). · 005 • Vatican looks toward making ties with Vietnam By PAUL ALE;XANOER . after the Mass in Hanoi_'s ornate, 11 7Associated· Press Writer year-old cathedral.

However. the absence of diplo, matic relations is not a major obstacle, he said, pointing out that the pon- · till has previously visited countries w ith no ofl'ic ial ties with the Vatican . The Viet namese Foreign Mtnistry did not ru le out a visit, which it pre·vious ly made conditi onal on establi shing relations, but made clear it would be difficult to arrange now. " Inviting. and receiving the pope is not ~i mplc ," ministry spokes~an Lc Sy Vuong Ha said Thursday. " We need thorough preparations from the Vatican, the Vietnam Bishops Counci l and the Vietnamese state. So far these have not taken place." Lam said there was significant progress in talks with the government on appointing new bishops, a persistent bone of contention with the Vatican. As part of its regulation of sanctioned churches, Vi etnatn insists on ri ght of approval for reli giou s appointments.

Mandcla said. Don't Worry About Your Future Let Our Payc:hlca Put Your Mind TI]is morning, Piccard and Jones had covered 22,635 miles oftheir 26,000mile voyage, far beyond the former long-distance record of 14,318 miles set in August by American millionaire Steve Fossett.. · . . · At the control tower, supporl staff hovered by a crate of champagne, awaiting oflicial confitmation that they had beaten the endurance record set t\O(o weeks .ago by two British balloonists. That bid ended because of bad weat~­ er near Japan after 17 days, 18 hours and 25 minutes in the air. Jones and Piccard beat the record early today . The pilots' spirits were buoyed on Thursday after they recovered from :a series of problems the day before . · The balloon lingered over Central America for 17 hours. While there, the pilots developed breathing proiJiems and got the shivers as the temperature outside fell to 45 degrees below zero and their small cabi n chilled to 46 degrees.

School districts ran into several problems qualifying for the aid. The government stretched lhe money by giving priority to areas with the most poor children. Some of those districts couldn't ~andle the paperwork, or their needs didn't match what the government decided to help pay for. " New computers didn 'I qualify," said John Zesiger, technology direcJor of Trimble Local School District in Glouster, Ohio. "Of the things that I was going to buy, there were so few that qualified for the time frame they allowed that it wasn 'I worth the time." Rock Hill Local School District in !ronton, Ohio, could have sought aid because it has some elementary schools in which 80 percent of the siudents qualify for the free or discounted lunches - the benchmark used to iden•ify needy schools. . Superintendent Lloyd Evans said he 'dlike to get his schools' computer labs tied into the Internet, but 'his focus has been on trying to build two new schools and recruiting a new technology coordinator. Also missing from the list of i 998 subsidies was the New Boston Local School District in Scioto County, which according to the Census Bureau had the state's largest share of poor children. · It would qualify for 80 percent dis<;ounts on eligible cornmimications . ~quipment, if its classrooms didn 't already have fast Internet connec- directed to providing internal con- tions. nections, such as wiring, to the " All I requested was just new tele- schools eligible for the greaJest needphone equipment," which the district based discounts.
