No calls after 7pm. 137tfn (AP) — Michael Dukakis collected endorsements from several van quished primary rivals on Wednes day as he savored victory in the Democratic presidential race. Jesse Jackson said his candidacy would “remain alive” even as he solicited an invitation to join the ticket as vice presidential candidate. George Bush, self-described un derdog heading into the fall cam paign, received words of encourage ment from President Reagan. The president also threw a jab in Duka kis’ direction, saying, “You know, if I listen to him long enough, I would be convinced that we’re in an eco nomic downturn, and that people are homeless, and people are going without food and medical attention, and that we’ve got to do something about the unemployed.” With the primary season con cluded, Dukakis was installed as a pre-election favorite by Ladbroke’s, one of London’s leading bookmak ers. But Senate Republican Leader Bob Dole predicted the public opin ion polls would soon “start moving” in Bush’s direction. Dukakis, who tucked away a dele gate nominating majority on Tues day in the final four primaries of the year, announced in Los Angeles he was ready to begin looking for a vice presidential running mate. He praised Jackson, but said neither he nor anyone else “is due an offer” to join the ticket. That didn’t sound like what Jack- son wanted to hear. He said his con stituents had “earned the option” of having him considered. “Consider ation means an offer. It does not mean just in passing,” he said. He later added that for some peo- E le “maybe the vice presidency may e a step down.” He added, “You understand my background? The vice presidency is not the top but it is a long way from where I started.” The contrast between Jackson on the one hand and former Dukakis ri vals Sen. Paul Simon, Rep. Richard Gephardt and Bruce Babbitt on the other couldn’t have been plainer. Simon of Illinois called a news conference in Washington to declare that the “verdict is in” and he would do “everything I can” to help elect the man from Massachusetts. Former Arizona Gov. Babbitt of fered his backing in a televised inter view in California. “It’s time to come together,” he said. “He’s a good man and I’ll endorse him.” Gephardt arranged to bestow his blessing publicly when Dukakis’ chartered campaign jet touched down in St. Louis for a refueling stop en route to Boston. New York Gov. Mario Cuomo of fered an endorsement, as well, in one of the great anticlimaxes of the campaign. Cuomo once was the sub ject of almost daily rumors that he would make a belated entry into the campaign, and for months his en dorsement was coveted by all the ac tive candidates. “I endorse him, I endorse him, I endorse him,” Cuomo told per sistent reporters. But Jackson sent alternately com plimentary and confrontational sig nals to Dukakis. He said whatever differences exist between them “can be resolved,” adding, “Both of us are rational. Both of us are intelligent. Both of us want to win.” At the same time, he said his cam paign would “remain alive” until the Democratic National Convention in Atlanta next month. He said he would continue to seek delegates and dispatched top aides to Macki nac Island, Mich, for a Democratic Party platform committee drafting session. Reagan was asked by reporters at the White House what sort of advice he would give to Bush in his race with Dukakis. “I’d say, George, wait until you and I get out there on the trail, and start pinning him down on the things he claims, which we know are not true,” he replied. Senate Republican leader Dole combined a prediction of a turn around in the polls with an attack on Dukakis. Administration ponders expansion of drug war WASHINGTON (AP) — The Reagan administration is consid ering expanding its “zero tolerance” war on drug users with the threat ened loss of student loans, drivers’ li censes and public housing, adminis tration sources said Wednesday. The Cabinet-level National Drug Policy Board is considering whether to endorse withholding federal aid from state and local governments, colleges and universities and other publicly financed institutions if they don’t adopt the anti-drug proposals, which are still in the discussion stage. Attorney General Edwin Meese III chairs the policy board. Under it, law enforcement officials are seizing cars and boats in which drugs are found, no matter how small the amount. One approach being discussed, according to other administration sources, would be to have student loan recipients sign a document stat ing that being a convicted drug user can mean loss of the loan. Education Secretary William Ben nett is trying to steer the Reagan ad ministration away from the propo sals. But if endorsed by the policy board and adopted through a com bination of legislation and federal regulation, the proposals would rep resent an expansion of the adminis tration’s zero tolerance program. Another possible approach would be to make it a federal crime to sell drugs near public housing, similar to the federal schoolyard law making it a federal crime to sell drugs in the vi cinity of schools. A third approach would be to seek to persuade states to revoke the li censes of drivers convicted of drug use. New Jersey currently has such a law. Color T.V. 19” Exc.

National Briefs Wright asks to go before ethics panel WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Jim Wright said Wednesday he has asked the ethics committee to invite him to testify so he can refute charges that he violated conflict of inter est rules. “I believe I can put all the alle gations to rest,” said Wright, D- Texas. “If the committee will give priority into looking at each and every (charge)... it will discover I have violated no rule and cer tainly violated no commonly ac cepted ethical standard. “I would like for it to be done at the earliest possible time.” Wright, who has been named chairman of the Democratic Na tional Convention next month in Atlanta, has called the charges a Republican attempt to embarrass him and the party. However, the speaker said Wednesday he has not hnurH ronmrns from ofhnr Democrats that the effort coiii succeed. The ethics committee bcgn last week to examine chartc against Wright filed by pofc enemy Newt Gingrich, R4 Common Cause, a non-pro!- group which monitors govm ment ethics, also called for probe of Wright’s actions. The panel, still decidr; whether to launch a formal ciuiry, planned to meet again day.

U.S. House kills home health care WASHINGTON (AP) — The House on Wednesday killed a $28 billion plan for long-term home health care, giving its chief spon sor a standing ovation but ultima tely bowing to arguments that the bill was poorly drawn and too costly. The vote was 243-169 to block floor consideration of the new Medicare benefit proposed by Rep. Claude Pepper, D-Fla. The long-term home health care act would have provided services to the disabled and chro nically ill of all ages. An estimated 2.2 million people would have qualified for the benefit in 1990. Under a special arrangement, the bill reached the floor without going through any committees — which led powerful Democratic committee chairmen and many of their colleagues to align them selves with most of the Republi can members to bury the propo sal. “The whole democraticprocts was sideswiped,” said House K de nority Leader Robert Michel, Ill. “Why has this bill not goa through the normal commit!# process? Perhaps because rj sponsors realize that it wot never hold up under the do* scrutiny to which it would be s jected. Pepper, 87, revered by semr citizens nationwide for his won on their causes, saidhe had wan# and worked for this day fori years. “When are we going to han another opportunity it we k« this one?” he asked, tears his eyes. “Think about thehunc values involved in this mattenni vote to help those people wh need this help.” Pepper charged that his opp: nents were interested only ini ing his hill and using the mono that would have financed it fa other purposes.

U.S. Rep. Jack Brooks said he requested the General Account ing Office investigation because although the INS is “treading a little more carefully until the heat dies down,” its top-ranking offi cials “in their minds think they have done nothing wrong." The alleged reprisals began af ter all eight agents in the Houston anti-smuggling unit told Con gress they were being reassigned part of the time to contact em ployers about the new immigra tion law and sanctions for hiring illegal aliens.
