He added that “naked agreements” to fix prices, allocate territories or to boycott competing health-care providers are violations that can he prosecuted with penalties of up to three years in prison and $250,000 fines for each violation. Copies of his speech were released at the Justice Department in Washing ton. “There are a few in the profession who it appears may have chosen to hold themselves above the law. ” — Charles Rule, assistant attorney general Rule declined to give any specifics about the grand jury probes, but a Justice Department spokesman, Mark Sheehan, said three grand ju ries are empaneled. The juries are investigating possi ble price-fixing by some allergists in Boston, some dentists in Tucson, Ariz., and some obstetricians in Sa vannah, Ga., Rule said. It is rare for the government to prosecute organizations of mei professionals for criminal violaiiJ of the antitrust laws. The AM A was successfully ecuted in the 1940s for attemp to eliminate an employee-spon organization that sought to compl with fee-for-service doctors, ' noted. Rule declined to provideanii tails about the grand jury prob' but in his speech text he said,“I- have heard about doctors organia to block new delivery systems, agreeing to withhold their senii or to boycott doctors who do ajiJ to provide their services.” He said this kind of behavior] not unlike that prosecutednearltil years ago in the AMAcase. Rule also said there havebeenf legations that groups of indepi dent doctors meet secretly to an to a minimum price or to i terms that they will insistupomdn they discuss participating in a grot Arrest of fugitive scientist by FBI relieves lab officials! PHOENIX (AP) — A California scientist who vanished more than 18 months ago, raising federal officials’ fears because of his knowledge of the top-secret research laboratory where he worked, was arrested here Monday on federal charges. An FBI agent, who declined to give his name, confirmed the arrest of chemist Ronald K. Stump but re fused to give further information. he disappeared in April 1987. Officials said he had access to the laboratory’s top-secret Tritium Fa cility and other national clearances. Tritium is a radioactive form of hy drogen used in some forms of nu clear bombs. Stump, who lived on a houseboat in the Sacramento River delta, had worked at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, Calif., for more than 25 years before Salinas declares war on poverty in Mexico MEXICO CITY (AP) — President Carlos Salinas de Gortari says he is declaring a war on the poverty that has marginalized too many sectors of the population for too long. “We have to combat poverty wherever it exists, where it is most prevalent, at its roots where incon formities are born and can generate social despondency,” Salinas de clared before a gathering of indige nous leaders and government rep resentatives from the southern state of Oaxaca Monday night. Oaxaca is among the poorest states in Mexico. Salinas announced a federal pro gram to install community kitchens in poor city districts and isolated ru ral areas to increase the poor’s access to basic foods. He said the govern ment also would boost the number of subsidized food outlets through out the country. in search of work and to escape abso lute poverty in the countryside. The president warned, however, that the battle against poverty would be a long one, extending well be yond his six-year term that began Dec. 1. “It isn’t possible to resolve in one administration the rejections accu mulated over centuries,” he said. Antonio Prado Olmos, mayor of the Oaxacan town of Santa Maria Chilcotla, told Salinas that local au thorities could not address the con cerns of the poor without more aid from the federal government. Salinas pledged to triple the size of a federal food program to reach 1.5 million Mexican schoolchildren. He also said the government would embark on a program to renovate hundreds of public schools that had fallen into disrepair. “The heads of families have told me they’re concerned that their chil dren don’t have desks in which to sit; teachers can’t write on blackboards, and the bathrooms aren’t centers of hygiene for children,” Salinas said. Half of the town governments in Oaxaca operate on annual budgets of less than $6,000, he said. “The little that we’ve accom plished we did through imposition,” Prado Olmos declared. In another meeting with labor leaders, Salinas pledged to continue the inflation-busting program known as the Economic Solidarity Pact. Salinas also announced the gov ernment will establish more than 100 milk distribution centers throughout the country. Mexico has suffered a severe milk shortage this year. Producers cut production to protest official prices for milk, established by a govern ment anti-inflation program, that they claim are too low. Salinas also pledged to step up the rate of legalizations of land holdings by urban squatters. Thousands of Mexicans each year flee to the cities “We are going to complete the eradication of inflation, because this is the phenomenon that has most af fected the Mexican working class,” the president told leaders of the powerful Mexican Workers Feder ation. The program froze workers’ wages in March along with prices for regulated goods and services. The average worker’s real salary fell by about 50 percent under Sali nas’ predecessor, Miguel de la Ma drid. Unemployment and underem ployment affect between 40 and 50 percent of the Mexican work force, according to private estimates. Strategic Air Command grounds B-52s after crash OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Strat egic Air Command grounded all B- 52 bombers Tuesday after one of the aircraft crashed at K.I. Sawyer Air Force Base near Marquette, Mich. Maj. Suzanne Randle, public af fairs officer for SAC headquarters at Offutt Air Force Base here, said the planes were ordered to “stand down” as a precaution. The grounding will affect about 260 aircraft. Randle said she did not know how long they would be grounded. The B-52 bomber crashed and burned early 1 uesday on a runway while practicing “touch-and-go” landings. All eight crew members survived. The plane is equipped to carry nu clear bombs, but SAC spokesman Lt. Col. George Peck said no weapons were aboard. The eight-engine B-52, which was deployed in the early 1950s, is the military’s biggest bomber, with a wingspan of 185 feet and a maxi mum takeoff weight of 488,000 pounds. The last B-52 was commissioned in 1962. wai rani charging him withunlati] tl \ Stump told Lawrence Livermore officials he suspected that he had cancer and asked for extended sick leave. However, the government has charged Stump with fraud over his alleged role in the laboratory’s pur chase of a $250,000 piece of equip ment that malfunctioned. He was sought by the FBI on a llight to avoid prosecution. Allegations that federal autk* lies f ailed to investigaie Stump'si appearance and other employee it] lations at Livermore and laboratories have prompted an i vestigation by the House Energ)i Commerce subcommittee on ove| sight and investigations. Livermore administrators wtn worried about protecting the laii public image and chose to let Sim go free rather than risk unfavora publicity, according to investigate on the lab’s security force Congress. Third World has majority of old people The anti-inflation pact was imple mented a year ago as inflation rock eted to a record 159.2 percent an nual rate. The government predicts that 1988 inflation will reach close to 50 percent.
