That's. rnised fears that Ashland might move corporate headquarters to New York or elsewhere. Chellgren says there are no plans to move the headquarters and no studies of moving under way. "But one never says never," he said. "The issue occasionally arises and needs 10 be addressed, but we have no current plans." In the face of consolidation in the refining business and excess capacity that has squeezed profits, Ashland had to address its refining operations, Chellgren said. "We were going through such changes and such difficult time> in terms of performance," he said. "We were suffering over time. We had to change it and move·on the offense _ become a smaller pan of a much larger, more competitive enterprise.'' Like refining. coal is a capitalintensive business. Chellgren said. "It's sometimes financially rewarding to participate in them in what l call a leveraged decoosolidated arm's-length basis.

It is far too early to assess the actual results of the programs because many of the rules are just taking effect. And some, such as imposing lifetime limits for receiving welfare benefit s. will not be felt for two or three years. The sludy. however, djd not try to judge how recipients and the poor are fanng under the new rules. but rather evalualed 34 areas of welfare policy and sought to determine whether those policies were more or less likely. to help or hun efforts to move people from public assistance into jobs. The study. its authors said. "was designed to provide early feedback to help evaluate the likely impact of state welfare program (policies) on family economic well-being while the nation waits for longer-term measures of their outcomes. "Each state 's score prov ides a measure of whether that state is using it's newly available llexibility to invest in the economic circumstances of the poor." the study sa id. But the scores. and the criteri a used to set them. didn ' t sit well with some governors. "A nybody can 'make a report and draw conclusions by selling up their own crileria. " said Idaho Republican Gov. Phil Batt, whose state ranked last in the study. The study clearly sought tn preempt criticism it is based on a liberal view point of welfare policy. as one adviser for the study was Peter Edelman, the ass istant Health and Human Services secretary who quillhe Clinton administration when the president signed the welfare reform bill. For example. lhe study marked down stales that take away bendits from reci pients who do not meet work req uirements ~ a sanction sought by many conservatives who think the lhreat of lost benelits will encourage people to find jobs.

"The empirical evidence suggests that. while negative incentives and sanctions may be productive in some cases, it typically is counter-productive to make them the centerpiece of welfare policy:· !he study says. States were given high marks for using incentives to get people to work, inclu<!ing allowing welfare recipients to save money and keep assets like cars while working without losing all of their benetih. The study also gave high scores.to states I hat provided job training, child care and other assistance that made it easier for welfare recipients to find and keep jobs. . Batt. a Republican, said Idaho was singled out for criticism. in part. for limiting re~ipients to two years of welfare benefits during their lifetimes. "We are tracking each of the former recipients tcr see how they're mak ing out. what services they need and whelher an extension of that (two-year) limit is justified," Batt said Sunday in Washington, where he was attending a governors' conference. Vermont Gov. Howard Dean. a Democrat. said the study confirmed that his state's approach of a tough work requirement combined with help that will make families self-sufficient was working. Vermont established a work requirement "wi th the philosophy that every child deserves to grow up in a home in which someb<xly contribute s to society." Dean said. "We have a lot more family-friendly support like health care. job training and things of that sort than most states," added Dean, who said the state acled l~ng before the welfare reform bill became law.

In response, Starr said he simply wamed to ensure that his investigalion was not obstructed. He said he " has received repeated pre ss inquiries indicating that misinforrnation is being spread about personnel involved in this investigation." "We are using traditional and appropriate techniques to find out who is responsible and whether their actions are intended to intimidate prosecutors and investigators. impede the work of the grand jury or otherwise obsrruct justice," Starr added. At issue is a recent campaign by presidential supporters to provide damaging information to news organizations. including The Associated Press , about the backgrounds of two of Starr's prosecutors . Earlier in 'their careers, Bruce Udolf and Michael Emmick supervised cases in which prosecutors' conduct was sharply crnicized. The feeding of derogatory information about the investigators is pan of a larger campaign by the Clinton camp to portray Starr as wagmg a political vendetta against the president and the first lady.

Wi lford Berry, 35, a death-row inmate who is scheduled to die by injec· lion on Tuesday, would be the first prisoner executed in Ohio in 35 years. The Ohio attorney general's office has nicknamed him "The Volunteer" because he has resisted attempts to appeal his death sentence for murdering Cleveland baker Charles J. Mitroff Jr. in 1989. Berry has said that he would rather die than spend years filing appeals that. in the end. probably would fail. The Ohio Supreme Court ruled in December lhat he was competent. Ohio Public Defender David H. Bodiker said Berry is not competent to waive his appeals and has asked the U.S. Di strict Court to delay the execu· tion . A hearing was scheduled for today before Judge Algenon L. Marbley. He was expected to rule on the request on Friday. "U nfortunately, we didn' t know about his sickness until it was too late to get him help, " Berry's sistt:, Elaine Quigley, said in a statement released by the public defender's office. "We are still praying that Wilford will receive the help he needs." . But delaying the execution would undermine the public's confide.nce in the law. Attorney General Betty Montgomery said Monday in a motion filed in federal court. "Delay is even less justified when it exi sts against the inierest of the indi · vidual who is to be executed." Public defenders on Tuesday said there was " meaningful evidence." including the testimony of psychiatri sts, to show that Berry is incompetent to waive his appeals. Berry was severely injured during a riot in September at the l'v\ansfield Correctionallnstilution. the office said in a court filing . "His facial bones and Jaw were so badly broken they needed surgical repair with metal implants . His right hand was pulverized because he had shield· ed the back of his head with his hand from blows intlicted with a heavy pad· lock swung on a chain." the response said. Berry's family - including Ms. QL'igley. an Ashland resident. and hi s mother, Jennie Lenay Franklin of Cleveland -joined public defenders in the federal appeal as "next friends" of Berry.

CLEVELAND (AP) - The com· pany that conducts E-check auto tests in northeast Ohio lost $3 million during its first year in stead of the $ 10.4 milli on it claims to have lost. according to an audit commissioned by the state. Christopher Jones, chief of the attorney general 's environmental enforcement section. sa1d Tuesday that the audit was requested because the state was not satisfied with Envi· roles! Systems Corp.'s calculations in determining a revenue loss exceeding $ 10 million for 1996. The company pre sented its larger loss figure in ao earlier audit conducted by Coopers & Lybrand . .Envirotest notified Ohio officials in October that it believed the state had broken its I0-year contract with · lhe company because of changes in the auto em issions testing program that resulted in fewer vehicles being lested. Envirotest sugges ted it might sue to recover $ 10.4 million in losses. Jones said Tuesday that the state is not admitting any liab1lity. even for the company's nea rly $J million in losses found in the most recent audit conducted by Barnes Wendling Cook & O'Connor Inc. of Cleveland. who died of a drug overdose the day found in a garbage can.

Jack We>t. 51. was "ntenced in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court to two years ifl stale prison for his gu ih y pleas .to four counts of sexual battery. He was originally charged with raping a boy who was 8 when the abuse began in 19K4. West also pled guilt y to 1hree been with a disappointment or two along the way," Carville said of his relationship with Clinton. "But what I am telling you is that he is a man that ·t have a great deal of personal affection for: he is a man who I do not think is a croo k ... " Carville's latest anger was aimed at news Starr had subpoenaed high· ranking White House advi sers and lawyers. including longtime Clinton friend Sidney Blumenthal, to attempt to lind out whether they were the source of critical news stories about prosecutors in Starr's office. Blumenthal and longtime Demo· cralic investigator Terry F. Lenzner were summoned Tuesday before Starr's grand jury. · "The very idea that he is pulling , stunt like this and that he thinks that this ... is going to .suppres s criticism of him - he 's crazy," Carville said. Carville said he would plead the Fifth Amendment if hauled before the grand. jury. tiut would not be intimi· dated. Of Starr, he said: " I don't like him, I don'tlike his politics. I don 't like the man, and this is America, OK?" He then mocked Starr for what he said were leaks of stories portraying Starr as a religious man who sings hymns on morning walks along the · Potomac River. "He plants a story. he goes down by the Potomac·and li stens to hymns, the cleansing waters of the Potomac go by. and we are going to wash all the Sodomites and fornicators out of town," Carville said. · Later. Carville sai_d he was not criticizing religion. but simply "mak· ing fun of Starr planting a story." Carville was asked if he is upset because Starr is getting ' 'close to lhe bone." Carville replied: " Yeah, he's getting real close to tile bone. He is trampling all over people's constitu· tional rights.''

"They told Nixon to get out, and eventually he .kind of wept on the White House lawn, waved and left. They told Gary Hart to get out. he "went back to hi s wife and hugged her and lefl. " But Clinton "didn 't get out." Carv ille said. in viling more estab· li sh ment venom. But he <aved most of his ire for Starr. "Frankly, I know I don't, and I am prelly sure the president does n't believe that Starr is anything. approac hing an objective person," Carville said. ''I think that he thinks he is a man on a mi ssion to ruin the pre sident.· who will trample on peo· pie's constitutional rights to do that. " Dehbie Gershman, Starr's spokes· woman . said: " Normally. we do not respond to Mr. Carville, but it would be interesting to hear what he had to <ay." After being read several Carville comments, she refused com· ment. Carville has been by far the loudest and longest-running Starr critic. He especially has been vocal in attacking the independent counsel's tactics over the last month as Starr has investigated whether Clinton had a relat ionship ' with former White House intern Monica Lewin sky and asked her to cover it up. If true Clinton has vehemently denied it the president could be open to charges of perjury and obstn·r.tion justice . Polls show Clinton still has high approval ratings. but generally more than half of respondents say they don't believe Clinton's denials of an affair. Carville said he never asked the president whether the stories are true. but that he has no reason to doubt Clinton's public denials. Carville said he hasn' t always agreed with Clinton, citing parts of the welfare reform bill and Clinton 's reliance on ri val political adviser Dick Morris.

Judge Joh n O'Co nnor scnlenced West to four to I[) years in prison on each of the three cou nts. but then suspended that pun· ishment on the condition that West >ati sfy terms of a li ve-year probation when he is released after servi ng hi s two years behind bars. The judge said if West violates probat ion. he must serve the four-tO· 10-year terms consecutive to each other and the two-year sentence. West's trial had been repeatedly postponed si nce last fall . The latest postponement was Feb. 9. when -he fired his lawyer. The judge appoint· ed new lawyers for him . Authorities said Wes t left the United States in 1990. shortly before he w~s indicted in Ci ncinnati on charges that he raped the boy over four year.s. West li ved in Indonesia fo r more than seven years. He was accused of mailing threatening letters to Ohio prosecutors, taun ting authorities to "come and get me." By CHUCK RAASCH GNS Political Writer WASHINGTON - Presidential adviser James Carville Tuesday accused mdependent counsel Kenneth Starr of being "obsessed" aild being "a man on a mi ssion to rui1nhe president ." And, he added. a " Wash inglori establishment" also is out to "ge t"' Bill Clinton. In a sometimes raucous, ofte n humorous breakfast at which reporters se veral times asked him why he was shouting, the man · dubbed the "Ragin' Cajun " said it was fact, not conspiracy, that the "right wing" is out to get Clinton . He also said the "Washington establishment" is acquiescing to an examination of Clinton's sex life a reference to all egations the presi· dent had an affair with a White House intern - because it is angry Clinton has persevered through frequent chal· lenges to his integrity and leadership. Mixin g tongue-in-check humor with seriousness, Carville variously described the Washington establish· ment as : • People who live near the White House and in a few upscale Wash· ington suburbs. ' • " People that write, pontificate. the smart people, I he Sunday mom· ing (talk show) crowd. th~ whole deal. " • And, "all of the intelligent peo· pie, all of the columnists. all of the co mmentators. all of the people that don't drink brown whiskey or eat red meat, all of the people that go to cocktail parties and say. 'thi s is fine we . are having this investigation of : ·somebody's sex li fe and now we are .• going to have a test of sexual purity w hold office.· · , "Well," Carville said. voice rising. "I am going to tell you that thi s is one shoe clerk in this poker game that. says. ·t don'tthink this is a real good idea, folks .' " Clinton. he said, won establish· ment enmity because he did not . " meekly and humbly" quit when challenged. with oil and natural gas.

"But it's playing a large role in a lot of what we're seeing - ·there'sjust no question. Millions of factors go into weather models, but there's just no doubt about the effects of El Nino." El Nino begins as a warming in the equatorial Pacific Ocean and ends up affecting weather around the globe as it spews out warmth and motsture. But how it does that, and how much of a role it plays in creating violent storms, has become the $64,000 question in weather science these days. Scientists caution against drawing direct cause-and-effect relationships between El Nino and single storms.

Fla. - Flamingo Lakes was one of those classic Florida :subdivisions advertised in brrn:hures.

' "This was my dream, owning my Cwn home." she said from her front ~a rd . "The kids can ride bikes on the s[reets safely. It's not like the projects." On Tuesday, her dream house "las in shambles, and she was sorting t~rough belongings in the yard and ~ginning the long task of cleaning !'P· . , Every one of the 163 homes in Aamingo Lakes was damaged by tor· vadoes Monday. Officials estimate that half were destroyed. House after hpuse is missing its roof. Walls are caved in. Broken glass is everywhere. . Assessing damages and grieving for.the dead were the order of the day across central Florida Tuesday. Deadlier than Andrt'W , Reports of the number killed IJi>unced up and down. On Monday. otlicials had reported 38 dead, then revised it to 36 during the night. Earlj Tuesday, two more bodies were found. one in an overturned van in a shopping center near here, the other pulled by divers from a creek in San- ford. north of Orlando. That pushed the toll back to 38. Searches went on throughout the day for seven .people reported missing. many of them at the Pondero.sa Park c•mpground two ·miles from here. Rescue workers with dogs searched the woods near the campground. looking first for survivors and then, as hope f•ded. for more bodies. The tornadoes, packing winds of 210 to 260 mph. were the state's deadliest storm on record, killing more than Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Damage estimates were being tallied Tuesday. but State Insurance Commissioner Bill Nelson said property damage was much lighter than after Andrew, which destroyed or damaged 35.000 homes and caused $25 billion in losses. Fourteen counties have been declared disaster areas. President Clinton is expected to tour central Florida Wednesday. Residents of Flamingo Lakes say they 're lucky. No one died in this development. which is wedged · between Ponderosa P•rk and another mobile home park. Most of the 22 people who died in Osceola County were ki lied in the two campgrounds. People here are familiar with the kind of damage that tornadoes can unleash on trailer parks_ What they cannot fathom is that twisters could demolish so .many solid. permanent structures like Flamingo Lakes' cement-block homes. 'War zone miracles' On Flamingo Lakes Drive, across the street from Christina Rivera's house. I 0 houses in a row are roof· less and windowless. This is a neighborhood of young families, heavily Hispanic. Many of them work for Disney. About a tifth of the homes are owned by foreigners, many of them from the United Ki~gdom, who bought the houses as investments. Brian Archer. a real estate manager who handles rentals. ·inspected his rentals and said he had never before seen any neighborhood of permanent homes as devastated as this. "I was stunned to see it," he said. "I know this sounds trite. but it truly looks like a war zone." Tuesday. most residents came back home to see just how bad it is. They gingerly stepped through holes and over collapsed walls. searching for valuable family possessions. One woman retrieved her wedding dress. even though the attic. in which it had been stored, had imploded and the top of her house wa' gone. Donna and Mark Epperson had arrived in 1992 from Cuthert. Ga .. so Mark could become the music direc· tor of the First Baptist Church. The Eppersons found the family cat, Ozzie. named for now-retired St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Ozzie Smith. trapped inside the washing machine. How the cat got inside the washing machine. whkh wa' covered with debris. will remain a mystery. o zer Most residents seemed wellversed in the cleanup drill . By early morning, almost every homeowner had spray-painted the name of his or her insurance company on the outside waiL The day was one of those bright. sunny days that sell Northerners on the state: clear, blue skies, 75 degrees. As the magnitude of the damage became more apparent, it seemed a miracle no one died here. In fact. the neighborhood seemed protected by a sequence of minor miracles: The beam that fell left when the family dove right.

Then there was Theresa Massari, 69, recovering from hip surgery and plagued by old polio intirmilies. She was sitting in a big, overstuffed chair in her bedroom on the second floor, watching "City Hall." an AI Pacino movie, on TV · Her daughter, Vicki, was asleep downstairs . The tornadoes hit with full force. In an instant. the roof and four walls of the second floor were gone, and Theresa was pinned in the chair by a wayward 18-inch satellite dish.
