REED Sentinel Newa Staff The Clvistmas season of over 600 boys and girls and elderly men and women will be a lillie brighter this year, thanks to the organizational skills of staffers at the Meigs County Depanment of Human Services, and the generosity of Meigs County residents. Since 1991, the DHS has organized the Aqgel Tree project, through which churches. school groups and individuals purchas~ individual gifts for the county's neediest residents. While many ofthe families helped through the program are on public assistance, the program also assists the "working poor," which includes panicipants in the depanment's JOBS program. All of the recipients arc refe!'fed to the program by case- workers in various departments of the DHS. Ttlose caseworkers are knowl· edgeablc about the families' special needs, according to Mary Hobstetter, • who spearheads the program for the DHS'. Determining the needs of clients and distributing angel tags are the easy part ofthe program. As gifts filter inta·the department's conference room, the monumental task of sorting gifts begins, matching the numbers on the tags with the family name and residence adaress. (Since conlidentiality of DHS clients must be observed, shoppers who take angel tags are told only the age and gender of the person they are buying for.) · Gifts are then loaded il\tO county vans and delivered to homes throughout the county -- to Pomeroy and . Middleport, Racine and Syracllse, More sentencings come from July drowning death Two people who pleaded guilty last mont~ to charges stemming from the July 7 drowning death of Todd C. John· son of Pomeroy were sentenced Monday afternoon in the Meigs County Court of Common Pleas. · Melinda Stanley, 27, of Pomeroy was sentenced on charges of tampering with evidence and receiving stolen property 1 while Clifford "Boomer" Smith Jr., 22, of Syracuse wa5 sen· tellfed on charges of attemptl.ng to obstruct justice and receiving stolen property. Both were sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison by Judge F:red. W•.Crow IU. · .. The charges stem from the drowning death of Johnson who-wu a 30-year-old sthool teacher at Harrisonville Ele· meatary School. Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney John R. Lentes said that Stanley attempted to push Johnson's pickup truck Into the water to make the Incident resemble an accident while Smith lied to lawmen Investigating the death, saying It was an accident. The two also had p6ssesslon of Johnson's wallet at the scene, resulting In the receiving stolen prope,rty charges, Lentes said. Jason Hysell, 23, of Pomeroy is serving 18 years In prison after pleading guilty to charges of involuntary manslaugh· ter and robbery in the Incident while Willie Kaurr, 20, of Pomeroy is spending eight years in prison for felonious • assault for his Involvement. Hysell and Kaurr brutally beat Johnson at a swimming hole on Leading Creek near Dexter. Kaurr kicked Johnson into the water where he eventually drowned. Rutland and Dexter, Chester and Tuppers Plains, Reedsville and Long Bottom, even to Vinton and Ewington. According to David Dowler, the department's building maintenanfe supervisor, who doubles as" "Santa," the experience of delivering gifts is interesting, to say the least The transient nature of some of the clients forces him and Chris Shank to return some gifts to "mission control," to be rerouted to a new address, or a dif· ferent family. Especially grateful for the deliv, cries are the elderly clients served through the depanment's adult protective services, who are as grateful for a visit as for the g1ft or gifts that are delivered. In addition to gifts purchased by the general public, the program is supplemented by cash gifts and mon· · ey from a trust fund. Those cash con· tributions are used to purchase gifts . for angel tags that remain at the DHS or are returned by participating groups -- each Client identified· as needy is served by the program. · While the number of clients Continued on page 3 A Mason County man who was convicted Tuesday of felony volun· tary· mansl~tcr could be spending the rest of is life in prison i[ Mason , County Pr · cutor Diana Johnson has her way.

If you have small children in your home, don't·use ornament& that are breakable or that have small parts that could be swallowed or that could choke a child. Question: What other hazards should we be aware · of? Answer: At Christmas, many of us bring several dangerous plants into the home. Mistletoe, poinsettias and holly berries should all be kept out of the reach of children. In fact, if you have toddlers or infants in your house, your Christ-' mas plants and all of your o1hcr foliage should be kept in places where the children can't get at them. And two very poisonous plants · · philodendrons and dieffenbachia shouldn't be kept around at any time of the year. . If somebody in your household docs cat part of a house plant, call your Iocal poison control center at once, or take the person to an emergency room. And if you go to the emergency room, take along a sampl.e of the plant so that the physicians J there will know what theY, are deal- , ing with. Fi~ally, on Christmas Day, resist the urge to burn wrapping paper or evergreens in the fireplace, and anytime you light a fire. keep an cxtin· guisher handy.

After much teasing by White House officials and furious guessing among the news media, the president disclosed the dog's name after being asked about two fonner confidadts - George StephanQpoulos and Dick Morris - who recently labeled Clinton "asleep" and a " lame duck," respectively. " President Truman said if you want a friend in Washington, you need to get a dog," Clinton said. It appeared he was Jletting an obedient pal, as well. "Sit!" the commander in chief ordered as he briefly introduced the dQg to reponers in the Rose Garden. · Buddy, fonnerly known as Teddy, promptly complied and was rewarded with a biscuit before deciding instead to munch on the lawn.

Wlltw WINESBURG (AP) -They toil long hours in sunbaked fields, pick· ing fruits and vegetables that end up on supermarket shelves. They wodc in dimly lit factories making handcrafted furniture, and in slaughterhouses and construction sites with little or no protective equipment. They are children· and teen-agers - the sons and daughters of migrant workers. the Amish, illegal aliens, the poor - working in high-risk jobs for low pay. About a third of the 488,300 I517 year olds in Ohio work. Of those, some 3,400 are working illegally, according to a child labor study sponsored by The Associated Press. Among them is Santos, a 15-yearold illegal alien from Guatemala who for six months has worked 1012 hour days at the Case Fa,rms slaughterhouse, culling and packaging pieces of raw chicken that arc shipped to supermarket chains. . Federal and state laws prohibit anyone under 18 from working at a .slaughterhouse, and subject violators· to fines of up to SIO,OOO. But Santos - he would give no other name ~ said through a translator he bought false documents that say he is 18. At 5-fOOI·IO and 150 pounds, with a baby face and dark brown eyes, he resembles a junior high school kid. "These companies need workers and are willing to look the other way when it comes to child labor," said Mark Finnegan, a lawyer for the Equal Justice Foundation, a Toledobased advocacy group. "It's dangerous for these kids to be working in _places like Case Fanns." Case Fanns does not hire anyone under 18, Human Resources Director Dan Self said. "I'm not aware of anyone at all I Sentinel• Children and teen-agers work in Ohio fields,.factories ~ ' I Wedn•day, Dtcember 17, 1917. beina under 18 years of age. I would not hire them if they were under 18. I would let them go if I knew they were under 18," be said. "I do DOt make it a practice of hiring child labor. I never have and I never will." He said Case Fann has doublechecked each piece of identification· presehted by its 500 workers. Even so, he said, "someone might still infiltrate your plant." The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation said 5,346 workers under 18 were injured on the job in 1996, down slightly from 1995. Five workers under 18 have died in onthe-job accidents since 1994. Despite the dangtr, state and fed· era! agencies rarely enforce laws protecting youngsters from working in hazardous occupations, Finnegan said. The U.S. Depanment of Labor is responsible for enforcing federal child labor laws But the agency 's chief compliance officer in Columbus, Richard Malloy, declined to comment about the issue. A Labor Depanment database obtained by The Associated Press stiows that in 1996, federal investi· gators in Ohio received 432 cases involving child labor The DOL would not discuss those cases. Tbe investigators "haven't done a good job of helping kids who really need their help - kids working in dangerous jobs. Those cases are harder to lind,"'Finnegan said. The Ohio Bureau of Employment Services only investigates child labor cases after it receives a complaint. The state has not fined an employer for child labor violations in years. "Our goal is not to fine people. Our goal is to make sure the problems are corrected and stay corrected," OBES spokesman Dave Garrick said. He said the agency doesn't have enough workets to seek out child labor violations. If they did, they might have found Santos. Or Jesse Morales, a pint-sized I!year--old with calluses lind blisters on hi~ hands from years of picking cucumbers in O'tip. Or Abe Yoder, !6, working at . Kidron Woodcraft, an Amish furniture factory near the eastern Ohio village of Apple Creek, about 35 miles southwest of Akron. "You always have to pay attention, but if you do that, you won't get hun," he said. "I don't know of anybody who has gouen really hun." Federal and state laws prohibit anyone under 18 from working with nearly all power-driven machinery, including power-driven machinery used in furniture factories. Violators face lines up to $10,000. Kidron owner Emmanuel Weaver, whose six Ohio factories supply wholesalers in 17 states, did not respond to two. wriuen requests for comment: But he said in a brief interview at the factory in October that he never hired anyone under I 8. The state had received no recent · complaints about Amish child labor but The Associated Press watched youngsters dressed in the traditional Amish garb at work at construction sites, furniture factories and sawmills. Some factories were crowded with boys and girls working next to dangerous machinery. Many lacked pro- · tecli ve gear. . Ohio has the largest Amish population in the world. Most live in Holmes and Wayne counties in eastem Ohio. As for Santos, he says he doesn't mind working at Case Farms, about 90 miles south of Cleveland. "I make money here. I couldn' t make money in Guatemala;" he said, then yawned. "I have to go to work soon. Another day." • 4CI .' .. I '.•• • .....•• '. .. .. .... . .. ' '• ·, ' ., Right of w·ay, James and Vicki L.

Unlike jurors who convicted Timothy McVeigh of murder and conspiracy and then sentenced him to . death for the April 19. 199,, bombing, the panel decidina whether Nichols is suilty of ll identical chlfJCS have more options, . They can consider second-degree muidet or manslaughter cha!Jes, neither of which carry the death penal- ty. McVeigh's jurors, who reached their verdict after 23 1/2 hours of !ilks over four days, didn't have those options. Afte~ U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch read the instruclions and jurors heard emotional pleas from the auomeys, the panel discussed the case for about three hours Tuesday before going home for the night. The seven women and five men were to resume deliberations today. MaiSCh described to the jury each count against Nichols -conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction, usc of a weapon of mass destruction, bombing of'fedcral pro~ny and the murders of eight federal law enforce- ment officers in the line of duty. Each can be punished by a death sentence. . "You must not allow public opinion to play a fO)C in your decision," the judge said. In his lasr chance to address tbe panel before it received Matsch's instructions, prosecutor Liny Mack· ey ridiculed the defense ponrayal of Nichols as a devoted father and hus.band, "as if a family man ·can't be a terrorist." "Terrorists have families," he · said. "The question is how they treat them, how they allow the dedication to a political principle 10 corrupt what should be imponant ro them."

Owner: Ronnie Jones Chrysler President Thomas Stallkamp said the automaker has not ruled out using incen1ives, but he hoped to avoid discounts at least for new.products. Japanese automakers downplay the yen's effect. Japanese impons are up this year because of stronger demand for small, Japanese spon uti lily vehicles, said William Duncan, general director of the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association. "Other things may very well be playing a· much greater role than a yen factor," he said. . Wes Brown, an analyst w1th Nextrend, said U.S. automakers are suffering from the yen- but not in the way they think. The strong yen in 1995 forced Japanese automakers inlo a massive cost-cutting spree, which has allowed 1hem to hold down and even cut prices in 1997. Brown said Honda Motor Co. and Toyota Motor Co. will keep prices flat for the popular Accord or Cam· ry cars. "The 130 yen will solidify the fact that we will not see price increases any lime soon," he said. ·' M73. 50 BilliG I CODLINI ilyn F. Peal to CSP, Orange; Deed, Bobby G. and Bonnie J.

Dioxin, a byproduct of the bleach· ing process, is known 10 cause cancer, and recent studies also have . implicated the toxin in human reproductive and immune system problems. Regulating dioxin is a problem because it is believed to cause such problems even when it occurs in amounts too tiny to measure. The company blamed the state for bringing (he approval process to a crawl. "The 'window of opportunity' to develop the project at Apple Grove has definitely. passed. In our indusey, timing to develop an _finance-a-prol ject is most critical," President Arthur L. Schwartz wrote to John Caffrey, direclor of the Division of. Environm~tal Protection. "Had the state acted ".isponsibly in a reasonable time frame to pennit 1he project -. whalever the requirements - it is possible. even likely, that the project could have proceeded. Thai is no longer the case," Schwartz said. The state had told Parsons & Whittemore to demonstrate by Tuesday a "good faith effort" to proceed wilh the project, which was first proposed nearly a decade ago. "We revoked the pennit. At the same time, they faxed us a letter saying they are pUlling out of 'Nest Virginia," said division spokesman Brian Farkas.
