Limited funds
may hinder
AIDS battle
AUSTIN (AP) — Gov. Bill Clem
ents said Tuesday he has no idea
where the state might find $1.4 mil
lion that health officials say is
needed to combat the spread of
AIDS in Texas.
Clements said he supports a pro
posal by state Health Commissioner
Robert Bernstein for stepped-up ed
ucation, testing and study to battle
the deadly disease.
But Clements said the state gov
ernment’s budget crisis makes it dif
ficult to obtain funding for such a
program.
“As far as supporting in concept
his idea that we must address the is
sue of AIDS, I thoroughly, totally
support that,” Clements told his
weekly news conference.
AIDS, acquired immune defi
ciency syndrome, is a disease that at
tacks the body’s ability to fight dis
ease.
On Monday, Bernstein said the
number of AIDS cases in Texas
could hit 60,000 by 1996 if nothing
is done.
Bernstein, who just returned
from a national conference on AIDS
in Atlanta, said the health depart
ment currently is spending about $1
million for counseling AIDS victims,
educating people about the disease
and testing for AIDS.
Bernstein said the department is
asking the Legislature for about $ 1.4
million for the next two years to ex
pand counseling, antibody testing
and increased surveillance of AIDS
cases.
The department also is asking the
federal government for more fund
ing.
But lawmakers already are wres
tling with a state budget that faces a
$5.8 billion deficit over the next two
years, and spending on most state
agencies has been trimmed.
Family awarded
$5.7 million
in boy's death
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — The
family of a third-grader who was
found hanging from a cloth towel
dispenser has been awarded almost
$5.7 million.
A Bexar County jury found Mon
day that Steiner American Corp.,
the manufacturer of the dispenser,
was at fault for defective design and
was negligent for failing to warn of
its hazards.
The Franco family was awarded
$688,000 in actual damages and $5
million in punitive damages.
Eugenio Franco, 9, died in May
1983 at Medical Center Hospital.
He was found hanging from a
towel dispenser at a restaurant
where the family had gone for din-
At the trial, attorneys said what
happened just before the boy died
may never be known.
During the two-week trial, several
theories of the boy’s death were dis
cussed, including foul play, choking
and accident.

Project helps ex-convicts find, keep jobs
AUSTIN (AP) — Officials of a
joint employment venture by gov
ernmental agencies said Tuesday
they have proven that the best way to
keep an ex-convict out of jail is to
find him a job.
“We appreciate the help and we
need it so desperately,” said Pat Mc
Coy, a former prison life termer who
is now director of New Directions, a
halfway house operation in Hous
ton.
Carl Rdbbins, who spent 27 years
behind prison walls and now serves
as an official of the coordinated ef
fort to find jobs for those released
on parole, said, “No single factor is
more important to relieve recidivism
than Project Forward.
“Without a job there is no hope
for the ex-offender.”
Project Forward is operated by
the Texas Employment Commis
sion, the Texas Department of Cor
rections and the Board of Pardons
and Paroles.
TEC commissioner Mary Nabers
told a breakfast briefing of more
than 50 state legislators and others,
“This is hands-on crime preven
tion.”
Since October 1985, the coordi
nated effort has helped 2,935 paro
lees obtain and retain employment.
“It has saved the state $2.5 million
in the past year,” Nabers said,®
figures that it costs the state S’
day to confine an inmate.
The project has been operate |
Dallas and Houston because tifl
urban areas provide most
state prison population.
Project Forward director
Snow said plans are to expat
program to San Antonio,
Worth and Austin.
The board refers ex-offendfsR
