Baby boomers· can avoid retirement 'sticker shock' through planning

cult ; but 36 percent of people aged
60 and over find that the adjust ment from working to retirement is
difficult.
The survey did not state the reasons for each, but common wisdom
might suppose that money is a fac tor in each case:
- two cannot live as cheaply as
one:
- three or fiv e cannot Jive as
cheaply as two;
- and golf course dues and exotic

travel cannot be paid for with ticket
stubs from Grateful Dead concerts.
So what ' s a boomer with the
Great American Retirement Dream
to do?
For a generation to whom CD is

answer may not be welcome: save.
Put a linlc something aside .
Recently, a series of focu s groups
was conducted across the country
by the National Academy of Social
Insurance. Among _the findings was

this interesung tact: there was
"deep disappointment from some
who said that they had been led to
believe that Social Security by
itself would be sufficient to sustain
them at the standard of living at
which they were now living. These
participants had the notion that current earnings would completely be
replaced dollar for dollar by Social
Security benefits."
Social Security will form a solid
foundation for most workers retire·
ment plans. Social Security retire-

menl replaces, on average, 42 percent of a workers pre-retirement
income. But Social Security is and
was always intended to be part of a
"three-legged" financial stool for
retirement. The other two legs are
private
pensions
and
savings/investment income.
However, less than 59 percent
of all employees panicipate in an
employer-sponsored pension plan
and only a little more than half of
all people are actively saving for

"This is great, exciting," said
Sara Lewison, 37, who was at the
wheel when the blue van pulled in
late Saturday. "We met some really great people."
It was part of a "Fat of the
Land" project designed to prove
the feasibility of using vegetable
oil as a vehicle fuel. It works only
with a diesel engine, but doesn't
produce the usual diesel smell.
The van averaged 24 mpg, about
what it would on regular diesel
fuel, Lewison said, and they had no
mechanical problems with the fuel
system.
It's not the farst time vegetable

or animal fat has been poured into
a fuel tank. Diesel fuel based on
soybean oil has been used in
demonstration projects around the
nation. Overseas, some countries
require the use of vegetable- based
diesel fuels in areas where air pollution is a concern.
''Rudolf Diesel, the guy who
invented the diesel, experimented
with vegetable oil and the Army
ran a tank with it in World War
II," said Florence Dore, who drove
the van for part of tbe trip and
served as spokeswoman.
This trip, the women said, was
the first cross-country demonstration of a recycled cooking oil fuel.

To cover out-of-pocket expenses, Michel's plan, developed with
Sen. Trent Lou, R-Miss., would

LOS ANGELES (AP) -Robert
Shapiro glared at the silver-haired
lawyer to his right and started
speaking in the low, slow voice

guide for lawyers, plays so well on
TV.
"This issue arose not by something Mr. Simpson's lawyers created," Shapiro insisted, addressing
the judge but looking right at
Robert H. Tourtelot, who represents Detective Mark Fuhrman.
Shapiro was talking about race,
which had been the stuf! of media
leaks and court papers until the
issue boiled over m the courtroom
during Monday's nationally televised hearing.
The defense denied raising the
race issue "per se," insisting that

Excerpts of Ohio editorials of statewide and national interest
The Marion Star, Aug. 24
Tainted meat, tainted fair.
When someone injected vegetable oil into the steers competing for the
top prize at the Ohio State Fair, more than the meat was tainted. The
whole show was spoiled. And that isn't fair to the thousands of boys and
girls who don't cheat
.
.
.
To win any of the market anunal classes at the Oh10 Stale Fau means
big money to the yowtg exhibitor at the Sale of Champions. Thousands of
dollars are paid out each year for the top steer, lambs, market hogs and
chickens.
This isn' t the first instance of cheating. Two years ago, the ~rand
champion steer was disqualified when oil was found in its muscle ussue.
· And tn 1989, a girl had to give back $28,000 she received for her grand
· champion steer when it was found out that its hair had been dyed. Given
' all that, we still don 't think the sale should be eliminated. Most of the
competitors don't cheat.
Fred Dailey, director of the Ohio Department of Agriculture, says the
discovery of the tainted meat shows that the system for checking the animals does work. It works well enough to show the flaw s of a few. The
challenge to all other young exhibitors is to come back next year and
show everyone that cheating isn't the way they win.
. The Bucyrus Telegraph-Forum, Aug. 25
America's most beloved government age!]cy, the IRS, is sending out
: pamphlets titled ' 'It's Never Too Late!"- to pay extortion money to the
· IRS mob, that is. The pamphlet notes, " As many as len millton people
who should have flied tax returns in recent years failed to do so.'·
· That means about 10 percent of the 100 million taxpayers are delinquent, qmle a figure . Items from the pamphlet
"Wtll I l!o to jail?" is the quesuon the IRS itself asks, posmg as a tax. payer. But tt never answers No. So that means you might. The equivocal
response: "Our longstanding practice has been not to recommend criminal prosecution of individuals for failure 1o file tax returns - provided
they volwttarily ftle, or make arrangemems to ftle, before being notified
they are under criminal investigation."
Another question the IRS' mock taxpayer asks: "What if I don't file
voluntarily?" Ah, the old voluntary compliance ruse tlhe IRS has been
using for years. If it's volwttary, why does the pamphler add, "We are
taking enforcement sleps for those who choose repeatedly not to comply
with the law ... ?"
Well, if the !RS seizes all your money and jams you in jail, at least you
won't have to file tax forms.
The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer, Aug. 211
The spectators started deserting the OJ. Simpson courtroom as soon as
tlhe case got down to its central arcana: DNA tests and the handling of evidence samples. There were no juicy revelations or glamorous guests or
chair-gripping chases - merely the nub of this case and many that will
follow. And if Simpson's top-dollar lawyers and forensic experts do nothing else, they will help define what is acceptable in crime detection's
emerging 2Ist-&lt;:entury weapon- the genetic fmgerprint.
.
The two genetic-lesting techniques accepted in court these days aren't
complele fmgerprints; they can' t give a 100 percent maiCh. The technology just isn't there. But it wiU be. It's already very close. Every person
(except an identical twin) is genetically unique. What holds geneuc lesting back from becoming an exact science is that tlhe microscopic probes
and other devices used to match snippets of DNA don't reach across the
entire genetic panorama.
DNA testing is here to stay. It wiU do more and more, reveal more and
more - more than many, in fact, wish to know about their inherile(( failings or foibles. The databases will be refmed. So will testing procedures.
And long after OJ. Simpson is a footnote, the techniques and safeguards for genetic tcsting his lawyers are helping to define will be helping
to exonerate, or condemn, the accused.
The Columbus Dispatch, Aug. 211
The U.S. Department of Energy appears to be trying to walk away
from a small but growing mountain of a problem in southern Ohio. The
stale is not about to let this happen without a figh~ and rightly so.
The federal government for decades has been accumulaung low-level
radioactive waste at its Piketon uranium-refining plant
The feds acknowledge responsibility for the trash that accumula1ed up
to July 1993, even tlhough they don't know what to do with it. At that
point, tlhe Piketon plant passed into the hands of a government-created
. entity called the U.S. Enrichment Corp.
President Clinton's energy officials contend that wastes stored from
that time forward are to be the rcsponsibilily of tlhe Midwest lnterstale
Low-Level Radioactive Waste Commission, the six-state consortium that
is counting on Ohio to provide a state-of-the-art safe disposal sitc that will
accept low-level radioactive wasle for 20 years starting as early as 2001.
Ohio has not_announced where it plans to locate the dump, but plans
caU for a capactty of 2.25 milhon cubtc feet to cope with wastes from
nuclear-power plants, research labs, hospitals and industry.
State officials and co11cemed citizens fear that the unanticipated - and
wholly unwarranted - addition of Piketon wastes gcneraled from July
1993 on would simply overwhelm the state's dump before the 20-year
period is up and another stale takes its turn.

has conceded Congress is unlikely
to pass the kind of broad plan proposed by President Clinton.
However, th e CBO said th e
catastrophic opt ion pu shed by
Michel could prove attractive not
just to the wtinsured employees of
small businesses but also to relatively healthy individuals, who
expect few out-of-pocket expenses.
If that happened, the people left
in standard plans would be those
~ho are sicker and older, driving
standard-plan premiums so high
that even sick people would find it
cheaper to opt for cata strophic
plans. the CBO said.
The agency said Michel's plan
would reduce the budget deficit by
$11.3 billion over 10 years. but
said it would do almost nothing to
curb growing healtlh care expendi tures and would do little to expand
insurance coverage, currently at
about 85 percent of Americans.
It said an additional 2 percent of
the population - 5 million poor
children and 2 million poor adults
- could acquire coverage as a·
result of subsidies Michel proposes.
Michel's plan also would allow
self-employed people to fully
deduct their health premiums. It
would limit awards for medical
malpractice, require employers to
offer - but not pay for - insurance, and restrict the ability of
insurance companies to deny coverage to sick people.
·
It would pay for the subsidies
and tax benefits by increasing the
Medicare premium for high -

about I million legal aliens ineligible for Social Security and Medi caid and limiting Social Security
benefits to drug and alc ohol
abusers.
In a letter to Foley, Michel sai d
the CBO report supports his contention that his bill " is the most
reasonable, straightforward and
realistic health reform proposal on
the table."

In other political news, the reelection of 94th House District

"top priority" of the Ohio Education Association, the stale's largest

OEA Southern Ohio Coordinator Jane McCarley said the organization considers Malone "a true
friend" of education because of his
support for funding, which include:
• $135 million in equity money

for the state's neediest districts,
including those in Malone's district
of Gallia, Meigs, Jackson counties
and part of Lawrence County;
• $95 millioo in capital improvements to install high - t~h equipment in the schools, with an
emphasis on low-wealth districts;
• $70 million to assist low wealth districts in school repair s
and renovations.
Malone "believes that children
cannot be expecled 1o learn if they
lack decent equipment or attend
class in substandard buildings,"
McCarley, a teacher in the GalliaJackson-Vinton Joint Vocational
School District, said. "We agree
with him 100 percent."
Malone's recent co-sponsorship
of legislation calling for an additional $1 SO million in equity funding was derided by his Republican
opponent, WellSton Mayor John A.

Bono named Montana's backup
at K.C.; Sanders still undecided
By ADAM NAZIMOWITZ
AP Sports Writer
Steve Bono, who proved himself a capable backup 10 Joe Montana in 1991 . will play that role
again this season for the Kansas
City Chiefs.
Bono found out Monday he had
beaten oul Mall Blundin 10 be the
No. 2 quarterback for the Chiefs.
Blundin will backup Bono.
"The bottom line of il was the
experience that Steve Bono has in
actual competition," coach Marty
Schottenheimer said. "When you
look al Malt, one full season as a
quarterback ... he's slill in the process of thinking his way through
this stuff.
As Montana's backup in 1991,
Bono led the San Francisco 49ers
10 a 5-1 record after Montana was

sidelined.
On most teams, backup quarterbacks don't get on the field much.
But that's not always the case when
backing up Montana, 37, who has
been injury-prone the last few
years.
Schouenheimer decided on
Bono, who didn ' t throw an interception in the preseason, over
Blondin, a third -year player who
was picked off four times in exhibition games.
In pre -season games, Blundin
was 31-for-47 for 372 yards and
one TD. Bono was 20-for-43 for
211 yards and one TD.

Deion Sanders
There was still no decision as of
early this morning on where the
free agent cornerback will play this
season.
Although Sanders said he would

Football
NEW YORK (AP) - NFL
owners will meet Wednesday with
representatives of its offic1als in
hopes of reaching agreement on a
new contract before the season
begins next Sunday.
Commonwealth Games
VICTORIA, British Columbia
(AP) - Canadian weightlifter Jim
Dan Corbell was forced 10 return
the three bronze medals he won at
the Commonwealth Garnes after a
drug test revealed he had taken
banned stimulants.

By DAVE GOLDBERG
AP Football Writer
" Phil Simms." From Smithfield, R.I., 10 l..aJolla. Calif.; from
Kirkland, Wash., to Davie, Fla.,
those were the two words uttered
most at NFL training camps by
players this summer.
Except perhaps for the related
words: "Salary cap."
Simms entered the NFL in 1979,
a f trst-round draft pick from More·
head State whose relative obscurity
led New York Giants' fans 10 boo
lustily.
He left the league in 1994 after
being cheered by those same fans
for leading the Giants 10 two Super
Bowls. This time, the fans were
angry al the team for deciding it
could nol afford 10 pay a 38-yearold quarterback with a sore right
shoulder $2.5 million of the $34.6
million allotted them under the cap.
"My saddest day wilh the
Giants," said 78-year-old owner
Wellington Mara, whose father
founded the tea:n 70 years ago.
"A rarce," said Keith Byars of
the Miami Dolphins, echoing the
sentiment of veterans everywhere.
"When you've gol a system that
forces you to cut a player that's
done as much as Phil Simms, it's a
farce."
The cap was part or the 1992
collective bargaming agreement
with the NFL Players Association
thai brought unrestricted free agen·
cy lo the league after five years
without a contract following the
24-day strike of 1987.
The first year of free agency
was a bonanza for many players
like Reggie While, who collected
$7 million up front when he signed
with the Green Bay Packers.
But it was clear the cap would
lake effect this year as player
salaries reached the necessary 64
percent of gross revenues. Every-.
one knew it was coming, but a,rell(.
uve rew knew what would result
"I'm OK, but a lot. of veterans
won't be onc"we get the cap,"
said Jim Jeffcoat or Dallas, during
the summer of 1993. "Voting in
this contract was the dumbest thing
we ever did."
There are a lot of echoes during
the summer of 1994, including
many from baseball players, on
strike over the owners bid 10 insti-

tule a cap. Many cite what's happening in football as a reason for
the walkout.
Players out of work include
Simms, who had perhaps the best
Super Bowl ever by a quarterback
in 1987; Karl Mecklenburg and
Dennis Smith, two of the defensive
mainstays of the Denver Broncos'
Super Bowl learns of the late
1980s; and Charles Mann, a fanner
Pro Bowler and starter on three
Washington Super Bowl winners.
Others have taken substantial
pay cuts, like Rickey Jackson, a
Pro Bowl linebacker with New

More than two-point conversions,

Obscure off-season changes
expected to render more TDs
By DAVE GOLDBERG
AP Football Writer
NEW YORK (AP) - The twopoint conversion is the NFL rule
change that is getting the most
auention. But it's likely to have
less effect on the span's attem)llto
increase touchdowns than several
more subtle moves made in the off.
season.
Despite the fact that two-point
conversions were tried after more
than a quarter of the lOUChdowns in
the fim few weeks or the exhibi·
tion season, thai pertentage is
unlikely to hold when play stans
for real.
More sisnificanl will be the
change requiring that after a missed
field goal, the ball is placed at the
spot of the bck rather than the line
of scrimmage.
"Strategically, the new rule
forced us 10 go for it," San Diego
coach Bobby Ross said after passing up a 46-yard field goal attempt
and going for a ftrsl down during
the an exhibition game with the
New York Gianls. The gamble
resulted in a touchdown three plays

later for the Chargers, who last
year had 31 field goals and just 33
touchdowns.
"We'll do that more during the
course of the season," Ross says.
''I'm not gain~ 10 back away from
that. I think il s a legitimate gamble."
In addition 10 the new rules on
field-goal placemem rule and twopoint conversion, others are
designed ID upgrade offenses.
One moves kickoffs back, rrom
the 35 to the 30, and lowers the
bcking lee from two or three inches to one. That's resulted in field
pos.il~on improving markedly in
exlubtltons from the 20 or inside to
out around the 30 or 35 yard lines.
Another directs officials to
enforce more closely the rule that
forbids defensive backs to chuck
wide receivers more than five yards
from the line of scrimmage.
The most arcane rule gives
offensive tackles an extra half-step
back to line up, giving them a
slight break against pass rushers.
But the sexiest change involves
the two-point conversion, although

n probably will be used only when
absolutely necessary - when a
learn behind by eighl or 15 points
scores late in a game or gets behind
early by a large margin.
In the ftrstlwo weeks of exhibi·
lions, 35 two-pointers were tried after 26 percem of the 133 touch·
downs. Eleven of the 35 attempts
were successful. Thai percentage is
liable to change when the regular
season stans -exhibitions are perfect for practicing two-point plays.
In an infonnal survey of coaches
taken iJpmediately after the rule
was changed, only Tampa Bay's
Sam Wyche said he would consider
going for two 10 win a gwne in the
final minutes, rather than take the
game into ovenime.
"Without question, il will open
the door for second-guessing,"
says Jimmy Johnson, the fanner
Dallas coach taking a hiaws in television. "It will depend on the
mindset of the coach, but when
somebody scores a lOUchdown late,
if they're in the race, they're gonna
take the one point and take their
chances in ovenime.''

Procrastination is the greatest
time saver of all.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) Fifth-ranked Michigan, already
reeling from the loss of tailback
Tyrone Wheatley for its ftrst few
games, will also start the season
without wide receiver Waller
Smith.
Smith, one of the Wolverines'
co-captains, will probl\bly miss the
team's ftrst three games because of
a knee injury suffered in practice
Friday, Michigan coach Gary
Moeller said Monday.
Moeller said Smith will underj!O
anhroscopic surgery this week w1th
the hope he could return in time for
the sUIIt of the Big Ten season on

"We're losing a very strong

Moeller said. "Walter Smith's

been and the way he's played the
game.
"Hopefully it's going 10 be for a

As you discovered yesterday, if you
pass , yo ur partn e r ope ns a nd yo u
ma ke a jump s hift on th e seco nd
r ound , yo u s how a maxi mum pas s
with length in both the suit you have
bid and th e suit pa rtner ope ned. The
Nort h hand in today"s diagram is a
textbook example .
After his partner"s fit-showing jump,
South bid his cl ub suil. The n .a lot of
cue-bidding took place.
How would you play in s ix dia monds
after West has led a hea rt ?
Cle arl y. you mus t es ta bli s h your
club suit whi le restrictin g your losers
to on e. The r e a r e t wo re asonabl e
line s. The fi rs t, whi ch is diffi cult to
s pot. is to dra w one round of trumps
with an ho nor in hand a nd continue
with lhree rounds of clubs . When West
follows to the third club, discard dum my' s heart lose r . In a mom ent, you
ruff your heart loser low in the dummy
and ruff a club with dummy's diamond
quee n, establishing your clubs.
Howe ve r, you can improve on this
bas ic plan . You ruff the third club with
dummy's diamond quee n . This works
nicely if the clubs break 3·3. But when
East dis ca rds , you cash dummy 's
spade ace, ruff a spade a nd lead a
club, di s cardin g dummy' s heart.
Suppose West forces you with a s pade
lead. You just ruff your heart loser in
the dummy, draw trumps and claim.
U a ruff in one suit is dangerous due
to the risk of an overruff, always bear
in mind the loser-on-loser play, so that
you can take a safe ruff in another
suit.

A.'i.~ ociate d Press Writer
BEUING (AP) -China and the
United States are developing a new
commercial relationsh ip that takes
into account China's ec onomic
clout and paves the way for better
political relations, U.S. Commerce
Secretary Ron Brown said today.
Noting that China is the world's
fastes t growing economy , Brown
said that by 2000 China's economy
wiU likely be one-third larger than
Japan's.
Brown is the fust U.S. Cabinet·
level official to visit China since
May, when Pres ident Clinton
decided nO! to make China's trade
benefits contingent on its human
rights record. He is on an eight·day
trade mi ss ion with 24 heads of
major American corporations.
' ' The goal of this busines s
development mission is to build a
trade and investment relationship
that will be the foundation of a
growing political and cultural rela·
tionship, and bring economic benefits to our nations and our people."
Brown said.

Brown said a better relationship
between the two countries would
advance strategic and human rights
objectives.
It will give the Chinese ' 'the
tools nee ded to co ntinue their
astounding growth and to nurture
their economic reforms, while fur.
ther ope ning China's vast market to
Am erica n firm s," he sa id in a
speech to the U.S.-China Business
Council.
Brown emphasized that Arneri·
can businesses intend to compete
and win against international com·
petition for contracts in China But
they need to move quickly, he said.
Personal relationships arc cru·
cia! to doing business in China, and
so companies that get the first con·
tracts for such things as subways,
airports and power stations " will
have advantages las ting into the
next century. " he said.
He estimated over a quarter of a
trillion doUars of infrastructure projects will start up in China before
2000.
Brown and Chinese Fore ign
Trade Minister Wu Yi signed an
agreement on Monday that sets up
a permanent system of talks to
smooth the way for more trade and
invesunent.
Brown called the framework " a
tool to resolve differences that slow
the spread of private sector agreements.' '

World population conference: View from an Egyptian village
Sex is tabu subject in Egypt
By KHA LED DAWOUD
Associated Press Writer
TlLWANA , Egypt (AP) - Not
far from where th ousand s of
experts are to disc uss controlling
the world population, the concept
of disc uss tng sex is so shameful
that a teacher has stapled closed six
pages of a science book.
Saeed Mohamed believes he
saved hi s school when he prevented his ll · year-old students from

sec 1ng drawin gs of male and
female sex organs.
" If I didn' t do that, the parents
would hav e destroyed the school
building for teaching shameful
matters to their children," he said.
In Tilwana, sex is rarely mentioned in public .
It remind s people of "bad
things that take place between men
ing" women would be ~eeted wil,h
confusion or anger m T1lwana. It IS

and women, " explains Aziza
Abdei ·Atti, a nurse and mother of
fi ve who runs the local family planning clinic.
Tilwana, a town of almost
10,000 people, is just 40 miles
north of Cairo. But it seems a
world away from where thousands
of experts will gather next week for
the United Nation s Population
Conference.
Delegate discussions of sex education, abortion and "empower-

typical of villages in the Third
World where conservative religious
beliefs, poverty and ignorance are a
challenge to population planners.
" People in underdeveloped
countries like ours arc struggling to
combat illiteracy," said Abdel
Fatah Ahmed, the veterinarian in
Tilwana. "If people here don't
have education at all in the first
place, how can I teach them about
sex?"

Illiteracy is estimated at 53 percent in Egypt overall - 64 percent
in rural areas. According to a U.N.
report, 960 million people in the
world arc illiterate. two-thirds of
them women.
But conversations in Tilwana
are a reminder that sexual habits
are tied not just to education but to
religious beliefs.
Mohammed, the reacher, smiled
as he proudly anoounced that "200
percent of our villa~e' s females
practice circumcision ' - removal

of the clitoris.
"It is God' s order," he said. "It
makes women clea'ler and more
respectable. Western women arc
more sexually loose because they
don't practice circumcision."
Female circumcision is not practiced in most Islamic countries,
however, and Egyptian feminists
argue it results not from religion
but from men's desire to control
women by limiting their enjoyment
of sex.
Dr. Azi z Khattab. director of
Egypt's program for population
education, said a paper he will
deliver at the Cairo conference based on 30 years experience explains how sexually ignorant
Egyptians are.
Khattab recalled being asked
whether mastwbation causes tuberculosis. And he said some Egyptians replied "jinns" - spirits when asked about the cause of
male sterility.

In Tilwana, even the educated
resist the idea of sex education, citing Islamic beliefs.
"We have to maintain the values of our Muslim society," said
Nour Ali, a pharmacist. He said
teaching children about sex "will
make them curious to know more
about it and maybe practice it
themselves."
Islamic teachings prescribe 100
lashes for men and women who
have premarital sex, but in fact the
women are sometimes murdered by
fathers or brothen to uphold family
honor.
In Tilwana, Ali said, young couples caught having sex "are forced
to marry in the police station to
avoid family feuds."
As for providing information on
safe abortion, Ali said this would
only encourage adultery. "If a
woman commits a mistake, " he
said, "she sbould be punished and
not allowed to have an abonion.''

Coal mine explosion kills at least 79
By OUVER TEVFS
Associated Press Writer
MANILA, Philippines (AP) An explosion in a coal mine owned
by the state-run Philippine National
Oil Co. killed at least 79 workers m
the country's worst mine disaster,
officials said today.
The explosion took place Monday evening at the mine near
Malangas in Zamboanga del Sur
province. a remote area w1th Jl!&gt;Or
communications about 500 mtles
south of Manila.
In a telephone interview from
the provincial capital of Pagadian,
Gov. lsidoro Real Jr. satd 79 bod•es
had been counted by this evening.
He said an estimated 20 to 30 more

workers were believed missing.
The Philippines' worst previous
mining disaster occurred m 1983,
when 27 workers died in a coal
mine on Cebu.
Real said relatives of the minen
crowded the site waiting for word
on the workers.
''They were crying, specially
those who were near the tunnel
waiting for their loved ones who
arc still inside. It was a pitiful
sight," he said.
At least nine workers were
flown to Cebu City for treatment of
bums.
Nazario Vasquez, president of
PNOC Energy Corp., which operates the mine, said about 170 min·

ers were thought to be working at
the time of explosion.
He said II miners were injured
by a similar explosion last March.
Vasquez said the blast occurred
when workers, who were about 500
feet underground, hit a pocket of
water and methane.
But Mayor Cecilia Tura quoted
miners as saying the accident was
caused by a dynamite explosion
that mixed with gases.
"I interviewed the miners and
they said there was a blast of dynamite," Tura said in a radio interview. "There was an open fire and
methane gas, carbon dioxide and
carbon monoxide mixed.'·

Sudan, Saudi Arabia withdraw from U.N. conference
CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Saudi
Arabia and Sudan are boycotting
next week's United Nations popu·
Jation conference in Cairo follow·
ing criticism by Muslim clerics that
the meeting violates the principles
of Islam.
The Saudi representative at the
United Nations in New York sent a
message earlier this week "regretting they are not going to partici·
pate, " an offici.al at conference
headquarters in Cairo said today.
Sudan's government announced
Monday night it would boycoU the
meeting and urged other Muslim
nations to also withdraw because
the meeting would result in "tht
spread of immoral and irreligioll5
values."
Saudi Arabia and Sudan are the
ftrst countries lcnown to withdraw

from the U.N.-sponsored Internationa! Conference on Population
and Development, which is expect·
ed to draw some 15,000 people to
Cairo beginning SepL 5.
Also today, an Egyptian court
rejected a suit by Muslim fondamentalists aimed at blocking the
conference.
The suit argued that Egypt,
which says its le~al code is based
largely on lslam1c law, could not
hold a conference which runs
counter to Islamic principles. But
the court said the matter was· ootside its jurisdiction because President Hosni Mubarak had the right
to invite the conference to be held
in Egypt.
The meeting is intended to set
guidelines for the next 20 years for
halting the growth in world popula·
·

lion and encouraging economic
development, particularly in the
Third World.
Sudan's minister of social planning, Ali Osman Mohamed Taha,
said in announcing the boycott that
Sudan was trying to organize a
forum for opponents of the meeting.
He also complained that the
conference reflects the views of the ,
United States, telling reporters "a
considerable number'' of conference resolutions reflect the policies
that brought President Clinton to
office.
The complaints about the United
States echoed statements by some
Muslim radicals who have charged
the U.S. government wants to
spread what they regard as immoral
Western values into the Islamic
world.

Riffe backs direct hearing of funding appeal
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)- Schools that want to
speed ac tion on an education funding lawsuit with a
direct appeal to the Ohio Supreme Court have picked
up a legislati ve ally .
House Speaker Vern Riffe, D-Wheelersburg, said
Tuesday he believes it is a good idea. And Gov.
George Voinovich has not ruled out such a co urse.
The Ohi o Coalition for Equity &amp; Adequacy of
School Funding asked lawyers for the state last week
to join in trying to persuade the state's highest court
to accept the case directly from Perry County.
William Phillis, coalition executive director, said
the group wiU not pursue the idea - which req uires
cooperation of a federal judge as well as the Ohio
Supreme Court - unless state lawyers go along.

He said the federal court is not likely to consider
the matter unless everyone involved agrees.
" It 's a long shot," he said.' "There's no poi nt in
our going out on a limb with thi s wi thout the state
bei ng in agreement. "
In addition to the Perry County case lhat deals
with claims under the Ohio Constitution, the coalition has a similar case pending in U.S. District Court
that raises federal issues.

Economy
continues
expand
WASHINGTON (AP) - The
government's chief fore castin g
gauge of future economic activity
was unchanged in July after
increasing by modest amounts the
previous two months, the govern·
ment said today.
The performan ce is slightl y
stronger than anticipated by analysts , who said in advance of the
report they expected a small
decline that would be consistent
with other evidence that economic
expansion is continuing , but at a
reduced pace.
The Commerce Deparunent also
said its latest figures confirm earlier estimates that the Index of Leading I!conomic Indicators was up
0.2 percent in June and 0. I percent
in May.
The gauge remains at 101.5, its
aU-time high since the government
initiated the measurement in 1948.
It has now risen in 10 of the last 12
months.
Three of the 11 components of
the index advanced, led by higher
raw material prices. Also, building
permits were up and there were
fewer weekly initial claims for
unemplo"(ment insurance.
Six o the components retreated.
They were fewer factory orders for
consumer goods, a decline in consumer expectations, faster business
delivery times that usually are a
sign of decreasing orders, a shorter
average work week, fewer unfiUed
orders for durable goods and lower
stock prices.
The Commerce Deparunent said
the money supply iocreased slightly and business onlers for plant and
equipment decreased slij!htly, but
their contributions to the mdex canceled each other ouL
Today's report appears to support other recent data that suggest
the economy is expanding at a
moderate pace. Analysts said if the
trend holds, it could forestall for
months any further increases in
interest rates by the Federal
Reserve.

the auditor's JOb. Duties include
accounting for how all Ohio public
offices get and spend money.
"I want to bifurcate the job and
bring money into the state,"
Sweeney added. If elected, he will
bring his expenise in acquiring fed·
era! contracts to the state.
Currently, Ohio- which is the
seventh largest state in the nation
_ ranks 39th in acquiring federal
monies for projects, he said. Local
officials don't have the ability to
know all the details and facts needed to gel federal doUars.
"I know I've done it successful·

talking about hundreds of millions
of dollars that we're not getting

said.
Other goals would include curbing Medicaid provider fraud with doctors that charge patients
for excessive unnecessary treatments, he added . The state's
accounting system would be comput.erized to lower the cost of audits
and speed up the process.
If elected, Sweeney said he
would seek re-election to anO!her

years would be needed to secure all

Sweeney woo his primary election by a 68-to-32 mar~in . His
opponent was defeated three years

Petro has already said he wants 10

state auditor.
Sweeney, who wa s raised in
rural Columbiana County, said he
will make an effort to audit small
communities differently than
Cleveland.
·
"As a Meigs Countian I feel that
as someone raised in Salem, Ohio,
I would better represent you than
someone from Cleveland. Cleve,
land may as well be another solar
system," Sweeney said. "The state
auditor is a very imponant position
and we shouldn't be playing games
with it for someone that sees it as a
stepping stone."
