PAGE FORTY ·1817 MEIGS COUNTY FAIR EDITION r-----------------------------------------------------~ , Ballllillll f'lls IBB7 ..". By JOHN McCARTHY Associated Press Writer COLUMBUS - Whatever tall changes are in store for Ohio's electric utilities due to promised deregulaiion, schools will still get their share of the receipts, a former chief state regulator said. · This week's failure to secure a . school fundi~Jl' tax proposal sent lawmakers baCk to sq uare one. But as they consider a new plan, another major issue awaits them. The Joint Select Committee on Electric Deregulation is preparing its report after holding six . months of hearings. The report is due on Oct. I . · The Legislature, with the support of Gov. George Voinovich, is expected to deregulat~ the monopolies that control the electric industry in Ohio. They•say deregulation is needed to keep the srate comp,etitive. Lawmakers must figure out what to do about the millions of doll~rs that school districts could · lose once deregul~tion begins. A study released in April that was sponsored by school. boards and administrators associa~ tions pegged the cost at $240 million a year statewide. Ohio taxes utilities at a higher rate than other businesses, but as monopolies, the utilities can pass that cost on to customers. Under deregulation, the state plans to change the Ia, structure hecause utilities will have to compete with power suppliers from other states and will not want to pass on those costs. ." ! don'tthink the General Assembly has concentrated on this aspect of it," former Public Utilities Commission of Ohio Chairman Luther Heckman said Thursday. " As a pan and parcel of'that .tax change, we'd have to do what we could to have a revenue-neutral formula." Heckman, who ran the commis· sion from 1975 to 1980, now works as a consultant to the Coalition for Choice in Electricity, a group of large commercial users. Rep. Ron Amstutz, R-Wooster and key memher of the deregulation commiuec, said solutions to both utility taxes and the school funding problem likely .will emerge at the same time . The Ohio Supreme Coun has ruled that the Legislature must solve the funding problem by March ,24. 1be deregulation commiuee wants to see a transition from utility monopolies to a competitive market about the same lime, Amstittz said. The April study, by 1be Education Tax Policy institute, suggests a 6 percent tax on electricity sales could make deregulation " tax neutral" for schools. It also could help satisfy the Supreme Court ruling that Ohio is too dependent on property taxes for schools, Amstutz said. " If we move to a sales tax-type charge, that .would allow for a taxneutral proposal and also accomplish our reliance on the propeny tax," he said. For schools, a solution is crucial, said Bonnie Milligan, tteasurer of the Carlisle Local School District in Warren County, about halfway hetween Dayton and Cincinnati.

While donors were dining with Democrats for the sum of $5,000.

So where e•aclly did the Democrats choose to hold this little soiree for their favorite givers? At the Chinese Room of the storied Mayflower Hotel in downtown Washington. Apparently the Democratic brass thought little about the shameless appearance of having the president shake hands and shake down donors in the Chinese Room of one of Washington's toniest hotels.

Plegenz Let's more than I00 guests, and because the Secret Service said it met security requirements. The fact that Clinton and company continue to raise money at the Mayflower is bizarre, because key events in the 1995-96 fund-raising scandals occurred then:. And that's just the beginning of Clinton's strange conduct in the face of the Senate fund-raising hearings. . The Mayflower, only blocks from the White House, was the site of an alleged fund-raising episode ·involving Democrali< National Commillee fund-raiser John Huang, a central figure in the foreign money scandal. It was at the Mayflower that Huang allegedly approa<hed an e.ecutive of an Asian-American business association and asked him to funnel $250,000 of Huang's mane~ to the DNC through association members. Huang has denied the allegaiion through a spokesman. Last week. Clinton preached that the campaign finance system has been dangerously overheated by an " ever-escalating arms race " for mon: and more money. "To IIUike sure that ordinary citizens have the loudest voice in our democracy, we must act to change the campaign finance law$," he said, With a straight face, Clinton then called for senators to support the campaign finance reform bill sponsored by Sens. Jobn McCain, R-Ariz., and Russell Feingold, DWis. "September wilt.be the lime for members of lhe Senate to stand up and be counted for refonn," Clinton continued. " I will do what I can to see to it that 1997 is finally the year that it is achieved." Meanwhile, he'll do what he can to exploit the weaknesses and loopholes in the current system. Only days before making his disingenuous pledge, Clinton was in California, mining the Golden State for more motley.· He shmoozed, golfed and ate with big-money donors and at a dinner that helped raise $600,000 for Democratl< House·candidates.

But the fact that Trie saw fit to deliver mon~ in plain brown' envelopes and shopping bags says something about the money-grubbing signals that Clintonites were sending out as they prepared for the 1996 elections. Clinton's current hypocrisy sends an even worse signal. He's mouthing support for McC~in- Fein­ gold. But his actions of late speak much louder. They say: Take the money and run.

' . That was why Britain, of all places, adopted "in 1986 a semi-privatized system of peisonal pensions. Under it, a worker can choose to remain entirely in the state pension system -- and 17 percent have done so. They will receive the basic state pension, plus an additional layer of benefits called the State Earnings Related Pension Scheme (SERPS). But 73 percent have "opted out" of SERPS, agreeing instead to invest 4.6 percent of their annual taxable earnings (roughly a fourth of their entire payroll Ia<) in either a private company pension plan or a personal plan comparable to an American IRA By law, all such P.lans must guarantee benefits at least as generous as SERPS. There is no income tax on pension investment income, and no capital gains tax on gains. How has it worked out?- Fabulously -- not even tbe Labor Pany opposes it Whereas the real return on "investments" in the US.

What's more, with entitlement demands subsiding, the OECD estimates that Britain will have erased its national debt altogether by the year 2030. Ours. by way of contrast, will stand at $39trillion in tbe same year, according to the CBO. As a final bonus, the investment of British workers in privatc·pension plans now totals more than $1 trillion, or more than the pension funds of all other European nations combined -- givmg the British economy the Capital il needs to e<pand.

There 's an upkt special, and then there's Pet~: Sampras, who is in a league by himself. Today's matches at the $2.3 mil· lion ATP Championship feature six of the Top 10 players on the ATP Tour, The tournament started the week with 17 of the Top 20. Only the tour event in Rome, with 18, has had more this ' year. Unseeded Jan Siemerink of the Netherlands knocked off third-ranked Goran lvanisevic of Croatia on Thursday night in the bjggest upset of the week. Sicmerink took I hour, 13 minutes to beat lvanisevic 6-4, 6-4, and did it by frustrating Ivanisevic's big serve. " I don·~ let him get in his rhythm," Siemerink said. "When I get his serve back, he thinks he 's' in trouble. He became rushy when he couldn't ace."· lvanisevic served just eight aces after averaging 14 112 per match this year. In other third-round matches Thursday, top-ranked Wimbledon champion Pete Sampras beat 16thseeded Patrick Rafter of Australia 7- 6 (7-4), 6-4; second-ranked Michael Chang rallied from a listless first set to beat Andrei Medvedev of Ukraine 3-6, 6-1, 6-4; fifth-seeded Thomas Muster of Austria defeated Martin Damm of the Czech Republic 6-3, 3· 6, 7-5; and lOth-seeded Gustavo Kuenen of Brazil, the French Open champion, beat Vince Spadea 6-7 (7· 5), 6-3, 6-4. Also, seventh-seeded Yevgeny Kafelnikov of Russia defeated No. 9 Marcelo Rios of Chile 7·5, 6-2; Alben <:;osta of Spain upset founhseeded countryman Alex CQ,ITetja 6l , 7-6 (7-3); and No. 6 Sergi Bruguera of Spain downed Jiri Novak of the Czech Republic 7-6 (75), 6·3. Six of the eight players in the quarterfinalsare ranked in the Top 10 _in the world: ~ampras (I), Chang (2), Muster (4), ~felnikov (6), Bruguera (8) and Kuenen· (I 0). Costa is 17th and Siemerink 36th. In the all-Spanish quarterfinal, Bruguero faces Costa. The French (Open) Connection match is between Chang and Kuenen, both precocious winners of the only Grand Slam tournament played on clay. Chang won it when he was 17, in 1989. It was the fitSt career title for Kucnen. 20, who won it in May. The upset match includes Siemerink. the only unseeded player in the quarterfinals. Ho faces Muster. And Kafelnikov will test whether Sampras, the runaway No. I, can maintain the form that made him a winner this yeat at Wimbledon, the Australian Open. San Jose and Philadelphia. "I think tomom>w will be the most important match for me in this tournament," Kafelnikov said Thursday. "I feel no pressure at all because I have played Pete a bunch of times." True, but he's won just two of eight matches. "Cenainly he is more favorite ·than me, but it is not such a huge gap • between, let us say, top 10 players . : and the rest of the tour because you : have seen very often now a lot or:: guys who are ranked outside 100;. really giving a hard time to the top ~ guys, ~ you see that more and more : often," Kafelnikov said. .· "Everybody is trying to play their best against the top guys, and that is • why things for the top guys are not : so easy anymore." ..

One form of the so-called radical realignment would have all 30 teams using the designated hitter in the "1614" concept. Acting commissioner Bud Selig said several proposab were dis- " Everybody is so sure this idea is going through, but not me," New This is just my personal opinion, hut I don 't think I like this."

Pomeroy and Meigs County should really enjoy a stop to be made on Sept. I in Pomeroy by the Delta · Queen. , Passengers will leave the boat for about eight hours and it will be interesting to see what steps we · locals will take in seeing that our vis· itors are comfonable, entenained · and shown a good time. Needless to say we'll have to have our best foot forward and roll out our best red carpel but I think we can do that. Planning is underway for the stopover and the visit will certainly be a challenge to our creative abilities. Severa) good ideas have already been expressed and I think the stopover will provide an interesting ex perience for our visitors as well as enjoyment to all of us as we watch or even take pan in the pnoccedings. By the way, I understand the boat's band wili be presenting a program at the new amphitheater in Pomeroy and there will be a calliope concen. . The experience wil_l be a first for Meigs County and Pomeroy.

"Gwyneth has some great ideas for the magazine." said Editor in Friday's devotional Love each other as brothers. By BONNIE SHIVELEY Devotional Writer Are you cautious with hitchhikers or when strangers.come to your door? We should be. Not all strangers who come to our door, nor all hitchhikers, are dangerous. Some may be in .real need, but we have heard chilling stories that make us afraid. Let's warm our thoughts with some Scriptures. Many Scriptures refer to suangers. In Hebrews II : 13 and 16, the Bible says that some great men of faith admitted, "That they were aliens and strangers on eanh. They were looking for a better country -- a heavenly one." ' We are on earth a short time. One glorious day we will go to our heavenly home to live with Jesus forever if we have accepted him . as Savior. We nrc only strangers in this world; we are citizens of heaven! Other Scriptures tell us to show brotherly love and hospitality toward strangers. Have you ever entenaincd an angel? Hebrews 13:1-2 explains. "Keep o~ loving each other as brothers. Do no forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it." F.athcr, give us wisdom and protection when we arc approached by strongers. We thank you for the knowledge that this is only our temporary home. and that we will live in heaven with You forever.
