Is there a way to repair this building -- Sunday, February 8, 1998 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, OH • Point Pleasant, WV ~y BRIAN J. REED S8ntinel News Staff : It's not a subject that people like to think about. but it's an expense that e-Yeryone will face - the expense of · liurial. · The industry ha' changed in recent years, with an emphasis on pre-planning and an openness about costs. Like virtually every other business, the funeral industry has also become more openly competitive, with large chains popping up in bigger cities and a variety of choices when it comes to purcha~ing funeral-related merchandise. More people of all ages and financial condition are opting for pre-planning. which takes various forms . The most common type of pre-planning is a burial trust fund, which can b'e arranged through a funeral home. Under such a plan, a consumer may make a lump-sum payment or a series of installment payments toward their funeral expenses, while guaranteeing a price. "It's like freezing time," Ben Ewing of Ewing Funeral Home in Pomeroy said. "Once the determined price is paid in full to ·the trust, the price is guaranteed." Such a plan guarantees that. regardless of the time of death, the price will be guaranteed at the amount deposited in the trust. In other words. if $5.000 is placed in the pre-planning account. the funeral ·expenses will not exceed $5.000. regardless of the funeral home charges or merchandise costs at the time of death . Local fun~ral directors encourage pre-planning, even though at times, they must take a loss of costs because of increasing prices. Funeral director> in the area also agree that ·;comparison shopping" before ·need is a good idea. Bruce Fisher, president of Fisher Funeral Homes in Middleport and Pomeroy. cites the "value" to the consumer of prearranging. "It's important that the consumer know that this is their money, deposited in a policy in their name." Fisher said. "The funeral home ha~ no direct access to the funds and the family can choose which funeral home to use, regardless of where the trust was started." While in metropolitan areas. the funeral industry has become highly competitive. prices for ba,ic funeral services in Meigs County vary from f~neral home to funeral home by a few hundred dollars. not including the costs of merchandise such as caskets and vaults. Basic services include embalming. use of the funeral home and ·staff, vehicles and administrative services.

The cost of a vault, required by many cemeteries, the opening and closing of the grave · and oiher direct costs place the estimated average funeral to over $5.000. Both Ewing and Fisher agree that consumers should carefully consider what they're looking for in terms of service before deciding which funeraJ home and which services they want to use .. · "It's important to look at value," Fisher said. "If a family is forced to make a decision at the time of death. they can get in trouble." Fisher refers to costly decisions made in haste when a loved one dies. "1 believe these decisions should be made before someone is sick or before they die, and it's very imporIantto be an educated consumer." F!sher said he encourages people to familiarize themselves with funeral costs before the need arises, so as to avoid "sticker shock." The Federal Tmde Commission requires funeral directors to itemize costs and to make those costs available to consumers. Gone are the days when a funeral director included all costs in a "tlat fee," according to Ewing. Now, each element of the funeral home's services are itemized on a cost bill, which must be made available to any consumer upon request. In addition to money matters, Fisher points out that outlining final arrange01ents is an emotional boost for the surviving family. In addition io preplanning costs. Fisher encourages consumer> to provide their fumilies with a ba.sic outline of their wishes. . A project designed to stop erosion along the Ohio River in Pomeroy is now in the hand• of the Ohio EPA to determine if the project will harm water quality. According to Nancy Pedigo of the Ohio Department of Transportation, rock is to be placed along the bank just south of the intersection at Kerr's Run to Kroger, a lengtl't of about 1,700 feet. The project has already been approved by the Huntington District . of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The rock would be installed to prevent bank erosion which is undermining U.S. Route 33- Main Street. The project would also require dredging almost 5.000 cubic yards from the river so that the rock can be keyed into the river. Shifting and subsidence due to erosion of the bank has caused repeated damage to the street. According to the EPA's Division of Surface Water, discharge resulting from the project would lower water quality. Pedigo said Thursday that the decrease in water quality would be temporary, and would be caused by residue or other qualities of the rock to be installed. Certain gr•des of "ripmp," as the process is commonly known, must be used on a project such as the one OOOT is proposing for Pomeroy, so that water quality is not harmed. · The project is considered an emergency project, and bidding on the work has been waived. No contrac' tor ha< yet been hired to perform the work, but will be hired once the DSW issues the necessary permits. Work on the project i.~ expected to begin in the spring, and will take an esti mated four months to complete. Starting Tuesday, copies of the application for permits will be avai lable for inspection at the EPA in Columbus. The EPA will review that application, focusing on the issue of water quality degmdation before approving OOOTs request. according to an EPA public notice.

' By The Bend Monday, February 9,1998 Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio Page 6 • The Dally Sentinel Q Charities work to keep volunteerism alive for... whole year . By DAVID RUNK Auoclated Preu Writer . COLUMBUS- The decoratoons are down, the parties are over. Where are all those holiday volunteers? It's crunch time for charittes as they work to keep the kindhearted who show up in droves around the year-end holidays in the fold. The tnck now, agencies say. is to channel that enthusiasm into lasting partictpation in volunteer programs and fund-raising campaigns. The forst few months of the year are key in ensunng that potential _volunteers become regulars, said Daniel Borochoff, president of the Bethesda, Md.-based Amencan lnstotute of Philanthropy, a nonprofit group that publishes the quanerly Charity Ratong Guode and Watchdog report. . " It's an omportant time because a lot of people will budget their time and resources early tn the year." he satd. · In Ohio, some say the holtday spirit and New Year's resolutions have kept new volunteers tnterested so'far. 'Tm findong more people looking for volunteer positions in the last couple of weeks." said Rachel Anderson of the Center for Nonprofit Resources, a service arm of the United Way for the Dayton area. " Now, tt's a matter of matching volunteers to opportunities." That 's not necessarily the norm. AgetJcies around the country always brace themselves for the post-holiday letdown in new volunteers. Gladys Porras of the Volunteer Center of San Francisco. one of the largest ' agencies in the nation that plates volunteers in IIJlla charitable organizations, said interest in volunteering swells so much during the holidays that there are not enough places to put newcomers. The numbers always drop after the glow of the holidays welll'l! off bill "it doesn't go-down dramatically because there are a lot of people whG make the commitment for the new year," she said. When volunteer positions fill up during the holidays, potential volunteers' are put on the center's mailing list to encourage year-roun4 involvement. And it doesn't hurt to remind them .that needs for volunteers continue after Jan. I. "The challenge is educating .them that it (the holiday season) is a good time, but ot is not the only time," Porras said. At St. John's Bread and Life Program in Brooklyn, N.Y., the number of volunteers tripled during the boliday season- to between 50 and 75 a day, said Executive Director Hossein Saadat. Those extra volunteers are essenttal to Bread and Life's expanded holi· day services, including a Christmas meal for more than 1,100 peo;>le and the dostribution of food and toys to 1,000 families\ Saadat knows that many of the volunteers will not return to b!:come regular helpers. But the holiday ru5h sti ll achieves something, he saod. "At least they're educated that hunger exists," he said. " I'm happy that "they walk away knowing thts" The hoi idays also are the annual peak of charitable donations. End-of-the year tax.breaks and media coverage of the needs of the occdy encourage holiday gi'vlrig, Borochoff said. • "For s"ome reason, when you're with your family and indu!ging yourse~f m the holidays ... you start to think about the people that aren t m that post· lion," Borochoff said. That's why many organizations that help the needy wait' until the end of the year to wage 'fund-raising campaigns. Forexample, the Salvatton Anny's annual kenle campaign has becon:'e synonymous with the hohdays. The kettles brought m more than $66 mtllion dollars natoonwtde in 1996 - about a third of the Salvauon Anny's annu· al income raised m about a month. The 1'1')7 total was not available but was expected to be higher, saod Salvato on Army spokeswoman Theresa Whitfield.

By RICHARD WHITMIRE Gannett News Service WASHINGTON - Two archotects of the natoonal education standards movement warn states that far more radical reforms are needed "Putting a real, tough system of standards-based educatoon in place woll requtre states and distncts to make tough ch01ces that only a few have shown themselves ready to make," say Marc Tucker and Judy Coddmg, author of the new book, "Standards for our Schools." Tucker and Codding, of the Nattonal Center on Educatoon and the Economy, meet Friday with many top U.S. educators to discuss the standards movemen.t. States badly need assessments that match their new standards, said Tucker, referring to the academic content standard.• vs the tests showmg how well the students have learned the content. And with the exception of Maryland, states have failed to tailor their assessments to international standards, be said. • States such as California satd Tucker, have ougtanding standards for lan· guage arts. "On the other hand." he said, "California just adopted an assess· ment system that has no relation to those standards." Tucker, who coorditr.ltes the New Standards Project which helps states set standards, points to several needed reforms: • Create neighborhood K-8 schools. Middle-school students still would experience the onnovative designs for middle schools, such as tnterdisciphnary teams, but would enjoy the security and continuity of staying in the same butlding. • Shrink class size in K-2 to no more than 12 students, and focus on reading. • Assign teachers to work wtth the same students for three years al a time. These European-style "class teachers" woll take more responsibility for individual students, the authors say. • Divide the responsibilities of upper elementary school teachers by subjects, with specialties in language arts, social studies, math and science. • Give schools authority to control most of their funds and allow them to hire teachers. • Abolish the traditional high school diploma, awarded for "seat time." and replace it with a "certificat~ of initial mastery" award~d after students are tested for competency. The first two years of high school would focus on preparing students for the certificate; once the certificate was awarded, the student could continue on a college-preparation track or depart for technical programs offered else· where. The proposal to keep K-8 students m the same building contradicts a popular trend in many districts, where schools aoe organized by grade, perhaps with separate K-2 and 3-6 schools followed by middle school. That design, said Codding, means movong children more, usually to larg· er schools farther from their homes. "We all know adolescence is a vulnerable time," said Codding. " At the very time they most need support we take them out of a secure environment, take them a distance from their home and put them in school a brief two to three years with new instructors. "We really believe that's a time when parents lose ktds and schools lose kids," said Codding. Middle school, said Codding. is fhe ttme parents stop particopating in their children's schools. Trial traces 'secret' of Marlboro's long success in cigarette market . By STEVE KARNOWSKI Associated Press Writer ST PAUL, Mtnn -They called ot "the secret of Marlboro .. R.J . Reynolds wa.' desperate on the mid-1970s to karn why tls leadong bmnd, Winston, was loso ng ~mrket share to Philtp Morns' MarlbOro. So were other tobacco compames that were losmg out in a ruthlessly competitove busone<>. "We couldn 't figure out what the success of Marlboro was." said Dav1d Bernick, an attorney for Brown & Willoamson "We couldn't figure out why 11 was that Marlboro wa.> taliong off on sales " The reason. as 11 turned out, was atrmonia, a chemical that boosted Marlboro's mcot1ne ''kick" and omproved the taste at the same time, accordong to documents and testimo· ny emergtng from Monnesota's laws'utt against the tobacco ondustry. "The secret of Marlboro ts ammono a," according to a 1989 Brown & Wtlhamson docume~t "Ammonia does many good things." Two expert witnesses for the state told the jury on detaol how tobacco compames use vanous ammonia compounds to alter the chemostry of cogarette smoke to gtve smokers a stronger nocotme dose. The way ammoma works, they said. os that ot makes the smoke less acidic. That changes a portoon of tiS nicotine into " free nicotine," a fonn that is more readily absorbed in the lungs. Free nicotme's effects are felt in the brain withon seconds. The experts - a Mayo Clinic authority on nicotine addiction and a Stanford University chemocal engineering professor - said boosting free nicotine also ensured thai cigarettes would remain addtctive even though the companies were bringi~g. out low-tar. low-nicotine brands "What the mdustry was concerned with, tn the face of lowenng tar, os the problem they would face of ntcottne levels dropped" below the level needed to keep smokers hooked, testofied Channong Robert· son of Stanford. "They didn't want to go out of busmess." Marlboro was the first major brand to really capotahze on ammonia, jurors learned. Documents showed that Reynolds, maker of the competong W1nston brand, began expenmentmg with the chemtcal in the 1950s but didn't oncorporate it onto its products until the mid-1970s. Reynolds' scoenttsts learned that Philip Morris had begun using an ammoniated fonn of tobacco on 1965 and used more and more of it from 1965 to 1974. "This time penod cor· responds to the dramatic sales increase Philip Morris made from 1965 to 1974," one document said. A 1973 Reynolds report shown to jurors said Marlboro's and Winston's overall tar and nicotone leveis had dropped by iwo-thirds over the years, but Marlboro's free-nicotine level stayed about the same while Wmston's free nicotine fell by twothords. The report advocated copying Marlboro's approach. Reynolds didn't get the tech nolo· gy into the marketplace until the mid· 1970s when it started puttong ammo· niated tobacco in its Camel Filter cigarettes, the documents showed. "Bet· ter market perfonnance was indica!· ed in the subsequent years," one said. After Reynolds started adding ammoniated tobacco to Winston in 1979, "market tests indicated significant product improvement." Robertson satd learning how to boost levels of free nicotine was one of the companies' highest priorities - and one of thetr deepest secrets. "They never told anyone outside the walls' of their research citadels that they were doing thts," he satd. And the order in which companies entered the ammonia race corresponds with their market shares today, Robertson said. Bernick has played down the state's contention that the main reason for ammonia is to boost free mcotone levels to keep smokers hooked. He has played up the industry 's poso· t1on that ammonta results in a bettertasting. smoother smoke. "Where do the companies compete?" Bernick asked at the start of the trial. "They compete for that great·tasting cigarette that people wolllike." He suggested while cross-examonong Robertson that ammonia reacts woth sugars in the tobacco to give Marlboro a "roasty, toasty" flavor, and that this was a main reason oth· er companoes pursued the technology. Bernick, who has done most of the ialking for the industry in front of the jury so far, also suggested that a host of other factors besides ammonia affect smoke pH - a measure of acidity versus alkalinity. When added sugars bum, he contended, they make the smoke more acidic. And he suggested that ammonia doesn't fully explaon who's winning and who's losing in the tobacco mar· ketplace.

VICTOR NITII New York University School of Medicine The feeling that you have to urinate ts overwhelming. There os a burning sensauon when you empty your bladder and yet practtcally nothing comes out. Then, almost ommcdiately, the sensation of needing to go to the bathroom os back. Somettmes the urgency IS so great that you cannot get to a too let tn ttme. These are the symptoms of a un· nary tract mfectoon, one of the most common - and most unpleasant conditions expenenced by women. A urmary tract tnfectton occurs when there os an excesstve overgrowth of bactena tn the bladder. Whtle tt is not uncommon for bacteria to be present in the bladder, when the bactena adhere to the bladder wall an overgrowth can occur resulting in a urinary tract tnfectoon . One of the baffling mysteries about urinary tract infections is why some women are plagued with them, and others are not. Some women experience unnary tract infections very frequently, while others rarely, tf ever, get them. The answer to this question probably lies m the type of bacteria colonizing each individual woman's bladder. Certain types of bactena, specifically certain types of E. coli, are more likely to adhere to the surface of tht.'bladder. In young, healthy women, unnary tract tnfections most frequently occur after sexual intercourse when bacteria, naturally present m the vagma are pushed up through the urethra - the passageway between the bladder and the outside world into the bladder Neverthless, sexual tntercourse , whtle commonly associated wjth unnary tract mfecttons, is not the or only cause. Many women have recurrent urinary tract onfecuons that are unrelated to totercourse. This may be related to pmblems such as kidney stones, the inability of that pattent to empty her bladder completely, or other urolog. teal condtttons Somettmes, tl can be related to changes that occur as a result of menopause Medtcal treatment for a unnary tract mfection tS stratghtforward. A unne sample can be checked in a doctor's office to see if excessive bacteria arc present, then sent to a laboratory to find out exactly which kind of bacteria is present. Few doctors will watt, however, for results from the laboratory before prescnb· tng an antibiotic to treat the infection. A number of different antibi· ottcs can qe used for urinary tract onfectoons, all targeting "gram-negattvc" bacteria, These bacteria exist naturally in the colon and cause no hann there, but are troublesome when they travel up the urethra into the bladder. After the antibiotic IS taken. relief IS often felt wtthon hours Dependmg on the antobootoc used, treatment can be as short as one dose or as long as 10 days For women wtth frequent unnary tract onfecttons. a unne sample moght not even be necessary to confinn the condnoon A doctor who knows the patocnt well. and who can rely on her r~porttng of symptoms. may choose to prc scnbe an anttbtotoc over the phone. While unnary tract onfectoon s make women moserable, they arc usually not very senous Untreated, however, they can spread to the ktdneys or tnto the bloodstream. In these cases, the sufferer would feel much sicker, expertenctng symptoms of malaose, fever and chtlls on addttton to bladder orritatoon. These more serious tnfections require hos· pitalization and the use of intra· venous anttbtotocs. Urinary tract mfectoons are also possoble - though much rarer~ tn men. This is because the female ure· thra ts short, while the male urethra (the penis) is longer. Unfriendly bactena somply have funher to travel before they infect a man's bladder. Urinary tract infectoons do hecome more commo~ when men become older and the prostate impedes prop· er bladder emptying. An tnfcctoon can also indicate another problem in the urinary tract, such as a kodney stone. In any case, a urologist should be consu lted Unnary tract onfec. ttons arc not spread from women 1(1 men through sexual intercourse Ccrtam folk remedoes and common sense measures have theor plac~ on the prcvcntton of uronary tract 1nfcctwns For women who arc prone to onfecttons w1th tntercoursc, a Simple thong to do IS to empty the hladder soon after ontercourse In some cases, a doctor may prescnbe a low dose of anttbtottc to be takefl JUSt after mtercourse It is also tmportant to note whether unnary tract tnfections take place .after a change m the type of t\irth control used If they do, a dtfferent method of borth control may make sense. : One sctentofic study has suggested that urinary tract tnfecttons cap be prevented by dnnkmg cranberry juice, whtch may stop bactcna from adhering to the bladder wall. Even dnnking extra water may help to clean out the bladder and has been reported to be helpful tn some patients. Although the evidence on such preventive techniques is scant, neither approach is hannful and, for regular suffers of such infections, may well be worth trying.

When you work, your employer deducts the Social Security taxes from your paycheck, adds a matching amount. and sends the taxes to . Internal Revenue Service and a report to the Social Security Administration . By the end of January, you ·should h.-e received a W-2 form stating the amoun1 of wages the employer paid you during the year that you can use to file your own income tax return. If you do not receive the statement, you should contact the employer. When you receive your W-2 form, check it for the correct name and Social Security number. Compare the number and name shown on the W-2 with the in formation on your Social Security card. Report any discrepancies to your employer and local Social Security office right away. Uncredited earnings could adversely affect your future eligibility for benefits, as well as your benefit amount. · • You should protect your Social' Security number, the key to your Social Security account. The nine digit number identifies your account and permits Social Security to credit your account correctly. You should show your Social Security card to . your employer when you star! a job. You should .be sure to keep your Social Security record up to date. If, because of marriage, divorce, adoption, etc., you change the name you use for work or other official business, be sure to apply for a corrected Social Security card. And once you make the change, be sure to use the name consistently for work, banking, and filing income tax returns. Finally, Social Security suggests !hal you check the earnings credited 10 your account at least once every three years. You can keep track of your account easily by calling and requesting a Personal Earnings and Benefit Esli:. mate Statement (PEBES). If there is an error in your earnings, )'ou should contact Social Security as soon as possible. If you have the necessary documents showing your earnings, the correction can actually be made online. If you wail longer than three years, it may be difticult to 'corrccllhc earnings record using the employer's records. By DAWN FALLIK Some may be entitled I!> higher benefits Some widows ~ and widowers - who begin receiving Social Security survivor benefi!S before they reach retirement age may qualify for a higher retiremen! benefit ·later on. This is why we tell them check with us when they reach age 62 or 65. Cnfortunately, not everyone does. Here 's how it works: Let's , ay your spouse dies and you apply for a survivors benefit as a widow or widower at age 60 (or at age 50 if you're disabled). Then , when you reach age 62 or older, you could switch to retirement benefits if you have worked and your earnings were high enough to entitle you to a benefit amount larger than the survivor's benefit you presently receive. When a person is entitled to more than one type of Social Security benefit, Social Security always pays the higher amount When widows and widowers ftle a claim for survivors benefits, we ask them to contact us when they reach the full retirement age. As the years go by, some people forget to check back with us to see if they are entitled to a higher benefit. Social Security ,through computer matching, has been able to contact thousands of survivors and . arrange for conversion to higher retirement benefits. Unfonunately there may still be some survivors we need to contact However, even when the surviving spouse doesn '! contact us upon becoming eligible for full retirement, the person may not disadvantaged. In fact, when people between age 65 and 70 delay receiving retirement benefits , they actually increase their eventual Social Security benefit . amount For example, let's say a widow was born in 1930. Each year she delays receiving retirement benefits on her own earnings record, her potential retirement benefit amount increases by 4.5 percent. These increases are ·added in automatically from the time she reaches her full retirement age (65 in her case) until she begins collecting monthly benefits or she reaches age.,O. ' Because the rules on switching 1o another benefit are somewhat complicated, we. suggest you talk with a Social Security representative about the options available to you. You can call our toll-free number, 1-800-7721213, to make appointment to speak with a representative . Our lines are busies! early in the week and early in ihe month . So, if your business, can wail. i!'s best to call at other times. Associated Press Writer BALTIMORE (AP) - Women are 15 percent more likely than men to get tension headach~s. a study found .

The study from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Heal!h was published in Wednesday 's issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association and looked at the routine headaches that cause rubberband-like pressure.

' Monday, February 9, 1996 ., ' c Page 12 • The Dally Sentinel Pomerov • Middleport, Ohio Battle over patent r.eform pits bu~iness ~gainst s~all inventors : By DAVID JUDSON Gannett News Strvlce WASHINGTON - When Congress last year proposed a better mousetrap to capture new techno· logical innovation, a world of inven· tors and scientists beat a path to its door. It seemed reasonable .enough at first glance to modernize and stream· line a 200-year-old agency. A bipar· tisan bill was supported by some of the biggest names in technology, with goals to speed the pace of innovation from laboratory to consumer and har· monize U.S . rules with those of the world. But the plan ran headlong into th~ opposition of a hastily assembled coal ilion, including all manner of inventors and two dozen Nobel laureates. The bill squeaked out of the House after bitter floor debate. With the bill on the Senate agen· da for full debate early this year, crit· ics are vowing to kill the proposal onct and for all. "They've attacked every aspect of reform, they've painted piCtures of conspiracy," said Bruce Lehman, commissioner of the U.S. Patent itnd Trademark Office, the defensive shepherd of what he thought was a non-controversial reform. "We had a five-hour debate on the House floor and I don't think we have had that much discussion of a patent bill since the office was created in 1789." That ' debate was white hot is about the only point Rep 1 Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., the measure's leading opponent, will concede to Lehman. Rohrabacher 's matter-offact view: "This bill is the biggest ripoff in history." last September, two dozen Nobel Prize winners, including economists Paul Samuelson and Milton Fried· man ....,.. two who agree on little else. - wrote to Congress opposing the reform. " It's main purpose is to put down the small independent inventor," charged MIT economist and Nobel laureate Franco Modigliani. The path that led from simple reform to an emotion-laden exchange of "conspiracy" and "ripoff" charges has been a complex one. It's rooted in the fact that U.S. pat_~:nt law, enshrined in the Constituiion, has as its central goal the protection of the innovation of the individual inventor. But the priorities are different in the rest of the.world, particularly Germany and Japan, where the goal is ensuring that companies have quick and fruitful access to new ideas and innovations. lehman and Sen. Orrin Hatch, R· Utah, sponsor of patent reform in the Senate, argue the two goals are not incompatible. Under a new world trade treaty signed in 1994, the United States gave up its guaranteed I( -year life.of a patent, agreeing to the standard of 20 y~ recognized by the rest of the world. But while the U.S. protection dated from when the patent was approved, the world standard is from when it is filed. Critics say·that if it takes five years for approval, the effective patent life has been reduced to 15 years. The new patent legislation would take the spirit of standardization fur· !her, allowing patent applications to be published before they are actual· ly issued, a sneak preview that is common around the world. It also makes it easier for challengers to hold up patents because they contend they have similar designs or that the patents are not truly original. lehman readily concedes the pro- posed changes lea~ him vulnerable to 'attack but argue~'lhey don't weak· en the ~and of U.S. inventors.'Har· monizing U.S. rules is crucial to get· ling the rest of the planet to begin enforcing the law. !i(pw U.S. compa· nies and inventors ·lose billions in ideas that are simpiy stolen. A second problem: he argued, are so-called "submatine patents," a ploy whereby vague patents are filed in anticipation of someone else's innovation, a tactic that would be rooted out by early. publishing, he said. • "Inventors are t~e real losers today - we. trying to get them real protection," he argues. Laura D'Andrea Tyson, former chief economist for President Clinton and a supporter of the bill, says the Japanese alone lifted some $105 bil· lion in patented property between 11985 and 1989. re Hatch said the 'bill would end ~c; theft of some $20 billion a year tn• American intellectual property and' that the proposal should, be ·~a crit.i·' cal part of thi s country s ec~~~;o~c: backbone." The .measure liandtly; passed the Judiciary Committee he· chain, and' he is seeking full Senate debate its early as February. : Critics of the bill, led by small· inventors. see a radically different : picture. They worry that the plan to: stop the theft of ideas by Japanese· and Europeans will simply allow U.S.; corporations to do the same. ~ " If this bill passes, I'm done fi( .. ing patents," said inventor Ronald J.; Riley of Michigan, an inventor or: products from exercise machines to• industrial monorails and head of the: Professional Inventors Alliance.' "This bill is no more than a licen~ to steal."
