Pancreatic cancer kills
51-year-old Billy Carter
PLAINS, Ga. (AP) — Billy Carter,
the former “first brother’’ and beer
drinking good ol’ boy whose candor
and business ventures amused and
sometimes embarrassed the Carter
administration, died Sunday of can
cer. He was 51.
The brother of former President
Jimmy Carter suffered for a year
with pancreatic cances — the disease
that killed his father and a sister —
and lived longer than his doctors ex
pected. He died three days after
leaving the hospital for his home in
this southwest Georgia hamlet.
Carter “died quietly and peace
fully in his sleep . . . with his family at
his bedside,” according to a
statement issued by the Carter Presi
dential Center on behalf of the for
mer president and his family.
“He had struggled courageously
with his illness, never losing his sense
of humor and always more con
cerned about those who loved him
than about himself,” the family said.
Billy Carter, who once defined
himself as a beer-drinking good of
boy, was forced into the spotlight
when his older brother rocketed
from their tiny hometown into the
White House.
He put his name on a brand of
beer that flopped, got into hot water
with remarks denounced as racist or
anti-Semitic, accepted money from
Libya and was forced to sell some
properties to pay a debt to the Inter
nal Revenue Service.
But underneath the mask of the
court jester was a perceptive man, an
avid reader, a fighter who refused to
go down quietly under the pressures
of alcoholism or cancer.
“I’ve been asked, a thousand
times, I guess, what I would do if I
had it to do over again,” he added.
“And I said, ‘Probably the same
thing,’ because if I had to do it over
again I’d probably screw up worse
the second go-round.”
He was born William Alton Carter
III, the youngest of four children.
He was a child with a stutter who did
badly in school while his siblings
shone.
Billy was 16 when his father died
in 1953 and Jimmy, a Navy officer
13 years his senior, moved back
home to Plains to take over the fami
ly’s peanut business. Billy chafed un
der his brother’s stewardship and
soon married his high school sweet
heart, Sybil, and joined the Marines.
of the peanut business, which grew
into a $5 million a year operation
under his stewardship.
During his brother’s presidency,
he made no effort to smooth out his
image. He cultivated a redneck per
sonality and was known for a quid
and often profane wit.
He put his signature on the label
of "Billy” beer, but later joked thai
one reason he gave up drinking was
that the beer was so bad.
He returned to Plains in 1964,

Doctor billings
may be changed
BOSTON (AP) — A long-
awaited study being released this
week could dramatically change
the way doctors are paid, sharply
reducing fees for many kinds of
operations while raising charges
for office visits.
The study has been the object
of intense speculation and appre
hension in the medical world
since it was undertaken 2V‘i years
ago by economist William CL
Hsiao of the Harvard University
School of Public Health.
The massive project attempts
to determine the amount of work
involved in everything doctors do
— from checkups and well-baby
visits to brain surgery and coro
nary bypasses — so they can be
paid what their services are
worth.
There is widespread
agreement that the current pay
ment system is unworkable. The
fees are distorted and inequitable,
Hsiao said.
H siao’s plan, retjnested by Con
gress, will try to correct that. It
would pay physicians more for
the time they spend thinking
about patients, examining them
and talking to them and less for
specific procedures.
In an interview, Hsiao said that
if adopted by government health
agencies and insurance compa
nies, his 2,000-page plan could
have a profound effect on the na
tion’s health care system. Among
other things, it could:
—Improve care by encourag
ing doctors to spend more time
with their patients.
—Lower medical costs by dis
couraging expensive tests, proce
dures and operations.
A summary of the findings is
scheduled to be published in the
New England Journal of Medi
cine on 1 hursday, the same day
the report is released by the fed
eral Health Care Financing Ad
ministration.
Mexico commemorates
executed Catholic priest
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexicans
crowded into a special Mass on Sun
day to celebrate the beatification of a
popular Roman Catholic priest who
was executed by firing squad 60
years ago on orders of the president.
The Rev. Miguel Agustin Pro was
made a “blessed” of the Roman
Catholic Church on Sunday, a step
toward sainthood. He was one of six
people beatified by Pope John Paul
II in an open-air Mass at St. Peter’s
Square.
In the northwestern city of
Chihuahua, Archbishop Alberto Al
meida ordered church bells rung to
“join in the jubilation” and in Mexico
City, Mass was said at the Basilica of
Guadalupe, the country’s most sa
cred shrine. Photographs of him
were at the doorway.
Late Saturday, an estimated 3,000
Catholics held a two-hour meeting at
the old National Lottery building on
Reforma Boulevard, on the site
where Pro was executed Nov. 23,
1927. The gathering blocked traffic
for about 30 minutes.
Then, following a pickup truck
carrying a life-size image of Pro and
waving flags of Mexico and the yel
low and white Vatican colors, they
marched to the Holy Family Church
where he is buried.
Stopping in front of the Interior
Department, shouting loudly, “Long
Live Christ the King,” “Long Live
Catholic Mexico,” “Long Live Mi
guel Agustin Pro.”
Pro, his brother Humberto and
two friends, Juan Tirado and Luis
Segura Vilchis, were arrested after
an unsuccessful attempt to assassi
nate the military strongman, Gen.
Alvaro Obregon, at the height of
church-state conflict in Mexico.
Segura Vilchis admitted plotting
to kill the general by bombing his
car, but the Pro brothers denied any
participation.
There was no trial and President
Plutarco Edias Galles quickly ordered
them executed.
“Luis Segura found no other way
out than to attack Obregon and with
three lx>mbs they wanted to elimi
nate him,” newspapers quoted a
speaker at the meeting as saying.
“On Reforma they threw two, which
destroyed his car, but they (authori
ties) stopped those who attacked him
and the car they were using be
longed to a brother of Father Pro.”
The speaker said Obregon threat
ened greater repression tlianCalles.
Obregon was killed July 1928 by
Jose de Leon Tot al.
Boxer apprehended
for assault, possession
NEW YORK (AP) — Boxer Mitch
Green, whose August street brawl
with Mike Tyson left the heavy
weight champ wearing a cast on his
hand, was arrested for the second
time in four days after he was
charged with assaulting a woman.
Green, 31, was charged with
third-degree assault in the Saturday
night incident, police spokesman
Sgt. Maurice Howard said.
The woman claimed Green struck
her, causing pain to her chest and
arm.
Green was taken to an unidenti
fied hospital for psychiatric evalua
tion after he became violent at the
police precinct.
The down-and-out boxer had
been arrested Wednesday on
charges of disorderly conduct.
Police found him ranting and rav
ing and acting irrationally on a
street.
He was charged with driving with
a suspended license and seventh-de
gree criminal possession of a con
trolled substance.
Green lost a bout with Tyson for
the United States Boxing Associa
tion heavyweight title in 1986.
In the Aug. 23 scuffle, the two
fought outside a 24-hour boutiquein
Harlem.
Green pressed assault charges but
dropped them four days ater.
