Bush's unexpected gesture at a 47-nation conference on emergen cy relief to the Soviet people could inspire others to hike their own contributions even though Secre- Patients have choice, rights, speaker says Continued from Page 1 respected a patient's wish to forego treatment, he added. "A doctor is more likely to be sued if he fails to respect some body's right to refuse treatment," Winslade said. "Physicians want to use their technology and they don't want to take responsibility for somebody dying that they are taking care of. They've made an investment and they don't want to give up." Cowart said, however, ad vancement in medical science should be the servant, not the master. "Technology should not dic tate to us," he said. Cowart, who is married, said his life is better than what he thought it would be for years after his accident. However, even if lie could have been treated painless ly and knowing what he does now, Cowart said he still would have refused treatment. "I would do the same thing if I had an accident tomorrow," Cow art said. tary of State James A. Baker III had said there would not be a bid ding contest. In fact, several of the govern ments participating in the confer ence came forward later in the day with offers of new assistance, said U.S. officials who spoke on condi tion of anonymity. The prospec tive donors and the amounts were not disclosed. At a luncheon. Baker singled out oil-rich Saudi Arabia, Aus tralia and New Zealand for pri vate consultations. The United States "cannot and will not falter at the moment that these new states are struggling to embrace the very ideals that America was founded to foster and preserve,” Bush said in open ing the conference. His aid proposal, which must be approved by Congress, marked a shift in emphasis since the new aid would not have to be repaid. Bush told the gathering that the United States has pledged more than $5 billion in various forms of assistance, but most has been in the form of agricultural credits that will benefit U.S. farmers. "Let us join together to give these people' a reason to hope,” Bush said at the ceremonial open ing of the two-day summit. "Let us commit ourselves this morning to work in full partnership as we proceed." Book projects defense cuts Authors predict Missouri, Texas among hardest hit WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense cuts through the mid-1990s will hit hardest in the Southwest and Northeast, with Texas, Missouri and Arizona suffering the worst economic fallout, according to a new book on the post-Cold War economy. The metropolitan areas expected to be hardest hit by military cutbacks are the Dallas-Fort Worth area; St. Louis; Phoenix; Long Island, N.Y.; Philadelphia, and Orange County, Calif., the book's authors said. Hurt least will be Idaho, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wyoming, the authors predict. The book, "Building a Peace Economy,” ranked the 50 States, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia on the basis of how much their economies would be hurt by cutbacks, taking into account their relative dependence on defense dol lars and the size of cuts affecting industries and military bases in their areas. An index developed by the book's authors, Bet ty C. Lall and John Tepper Marlin, to measure the cumulative effect of defense cuts from 1990 to 1995 on individual states ranked Missouri as the hard est hit, followed by Texas, Arizona, New Hamp shire and Vermont. Missouri topped the listing mainly because it is home to several major defense contractors that are losing big projects.

Furlow said that she did not trust the motives of Planned Par enthood or believe they were truly working in the best interest of poor and black women. Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, was "one of the most evil people to walk the face of the earth," Furlow said. "(Sanger) wanted to kill, ster ilize, and segregate people she be lieved were unfit," Furlow said. Participants discussed another much-debated issue linked to the abortion question: when does life actually begin in the womb? Hey- wood Robertson, Crisis Pregnancy Center board member, spoke to the crowd about what he believes science says about the beginning of life. "What modern science has concluded is absolutely crystal clear, and that is human life does begin at conception," Robertson said. "It's a matter of simple truth, determined by scientific observa tion and analysis." E JR M4'92 KICK-OFF FOR YOUR FUTURE...
