Officials say shuttle still dangerous
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
space shuttle is “a very dangerous
system” that should be flown with
caution by crews limited to essen
tial personnel, say some members
of the presidential commission
that investigated the Challenger
accident.
Some former commissioners
said the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration has yet
to complete all of the testing that
they believe should have been
done even before the first shuttle
flight. They commented in inter
views on the eve of Thursday’s
second anniversary of the Chal
lenger accident.

Hospitals losing money on Medicare ffthe 0
ve Mai
WASHINGTON (AP) — One-
third of the hospitals that treated
Medicare patients during 1986-
87 made no money or actually
lost money for that care, a Health
and Human Services Department
official said Wednesday.
Overall, the profit margin for
hospitals for treatment of Medi
care patients declined signifi
cantly during that period, falling
from 14.4 percent in 1985-86 to
9.6 percent in 1986-87, Richard
P. Kusserow, the HHS inspector
general, said.
Total profits for the 5,288 hos
pitals participating in the system
declined from $4.9 billion in the
first period to $3.6 billion in the
later period, which worked oum
an average decline of 31 perm
for each hospital, from $992331
to $687,203, he said.
“In the first two years... then
was an average of 80 percent o!
the hospitals registering profe
20 percent registering no profits
or losses,” he said. "Now we hast
two-thirds registering profits
“Up until 1984, Medicareonl]

tients, no profit at all, only costs
In 1984, (Congress) basicallysa«

Smuggler says leader accepted bribe
WASHINGTON (AP) — A
convicted drug smuggler testified
Thursday that Panamanian
strongman Gen. Manuel Antonio
Noriega smilingly accepted a
$300,000 cash bribe in 1983 to
become “a full-scale co-conspira-
tor” in laundering huge profits
from trafficking in marijuana
and cocaine.
Steven Michael Kalish told as
tonished senators that he and No
riega were such close business
partners that he lent the general a
fancy Lear executive jet, bought
with illegal drug proceeds, tol
to Washington for a meetingwilil
President Reagan in Novemkil
1983.
Kalish, 35, a high school <
out from Houston who was in i
prisoned in 1984 as the master
mind of a multimillion-d
drug operation, gave the
sworn public testimony implicalJ
ing Noriega as an eager particij
pant in a complex web of druj I
related payoffs, kickbacks andof
ficial corruption.
Senate approves repeal of abortion lai
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Senate on Thursday approved a
measure that would effectively
repeal 1975 regulations designed
to prevent discrimination against
women who have abortions or
want them.
The 56-39 vote came on an
amendment to the Civil Rights
Restoration Act, a sweeping mea
sure that has been a magnet for
controversial issues since it was
introduced in 1984 to reverse the
effects of a Supreme Court deci
sion limiting the reach of federal
anti-discrimination protections.
The abortion amendment
sponsored by Sen. John Dan-
forth, R-Mo., said nothing in Ti
tle IX, the law barring sex dis
crimination in education,
be construed to require or proj
hibit any person, or public or pn i
vate entity, to provide or pay fori
any benefit or service . . . related |
to abortion.”
The amendment would super |
sede Title IX regulations that sa> I
schools receiving federal
cannot discriminate against!
women who have abortions and[
must, if they have comprehensi'tf
health plans, cover pregnane [
childbirth and abortion.
“The question is, do you
lieve that the refusal to provident I
fund abortions constitutes ses
discrimination?” Danforthasked
Meese to review harassment charges
WASHINGTON (AP) — At
torney General Edwin Meese III
said Thursday he will review alle
gations of harassment in the
FBI’s investigations of opponents
of the administration’s Central
America policy.
Presidential spokesman Marlin
Fitzwater, meanwhile, said the
White House has asked for infor
mation on the FBI’s domestic sur
veillance campaign and that “we
won’t have any comment until we
see what it’s all about.”
The Center for Constitutional I
Rights, a New York-based lawyer) I
group, announced Wednesday
that it had received more
1,300 pages of government docuj
ments showing the FBI had inves
tigated hundreds of organiza
tions and individuals opposed!
U.S. policy in Central America.
Meese said he has asked fora!
report on the surveillance from
the FBI and would discuss thtj
matter with FBI Director Will
Sessions. “Then I will determine |
what action is necessary,” he said

Seabrook owner files for bankruptcy
MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) —
Public Service Company of New
Hampshire, lead owner of the
stalled $5.2 billion Seabrook nu
clear power plant, on Thursday
filed for protection from its cred
itors under Chapter 11 of the
Federal Bankruptcy Act.
With $3 billion in assets, in
cluding $2.1 billion sunk into Sea
brook, Public Service is the
fourth-largest U.S. company to
file under Chapter 11 and the
first major investor-owned utility
to seek bankruptcy protection i
since the Depression.
The move came two days after
the state Supreme Court denied j
the company an emergency rate
increase by upholding a law!
against charging ratepayers far
power plants in advance of coni'
mercial operation.
Public Service has a 36 percent
stake in the controversial reactor,
which was completed a year and a
half ago.
