Cheney says troop buildup not signal for U.S. attack Junior E his thir against F WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon is laying plans to send as many as 100,000 more troops to Saudi Arabia, but the expanded buildup does not signal a U.S. intent to attack Iraq, Defense Secretary Dick Cheney said Thursday. CIA Director William Webster, meanwhile, suggested a growing U.S. reluctance to let Iraqi President Saddam Hussein survive the current crisis in power, even if he withdraws from Kuwait. Webster said the Persian Gulf re gion will not be secure unless Sad dam is removed from power or he is “disassociated” from his chemical weapons and reported efforts to ac quire nuclear arms. On Capitol Hill, there was con cern over the administration’s course and worry that once Con gress leaves town. Bush might feel less constrained to follow a peaceful path. “I am not convinced that this ad ministration will do everything in its power to avoid war,” said Sen. Rob ert Kerrey, D-Neb., expressing the same sentiments as many of his col leagues who have supported the gulf deployment. Kerrey, a Vietnam veteran and Medal of Honor winner, said “If ever there was an avoidable war, it is this one.” The Pentagon’s disclosure earlier this week that it was considering adding troops to Operation Desert Shield, beyond the 240,000 already there or en route, raised questions about whether the deployment was being tailored for an offensive. Cheney, speaking in a series of in terviews with the television networks ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN, said the Bush administration had not set an upper limit on troop deployments to Saudi Arabia. He said he wanted to have enough forces there “to deal with any contingency.” Yale team develops Lyme vaccine in lab WASHINGTON (AP) — Yale University efforts with lab mice could lead to a vaccine against Lyme disease in humans, and perhaps against syphilis as well, researchers say. In a study to be published to day in the journal Science, a Yale team reported that a Lyme dis ease vaccine for mice was made with a gene-engineering tech nique that could be applied to other diseases, such as syphilis, that are caused by a type of bacte ria called spirochetes. “It’s very likely that we’ll be able to get a good vaccine for hu mans from this technique,” Rich ard A. Flavell, leader of the Yale team, said. “If it works on this dis ease, then it may be used to de velop vaccines against other dis eases with spirochetes, such as syphilis.” A Harvard researcher, how ever, said the success of a Lyme disease vaccine, even for mice, cannot be proven until the immu nity is tested against disease in the way it is naturally spread — through a tick bite. David H. Persing of the Har vard School of Public Health said the saliva of Lyme disease-in fected ticks also contains sub stances that depress some im mune functions. A vaccine would lie proven, he said, only when it is shown to give protection against the effects of these substances also. Lyme disease was first identi fied in 1975 and named For the Connecticut town where a Yale study was conducted. The disease is spread by a small deer tick that passes along the spirochete when it sucks blood from a victim. The disease can cause heart problems, arthritis-like joint pain, skin rash and even brain disor ders. Identified early, Lyme dis ease can be successfully treated with antibiotics. Flavell said it will take five to eighfyears before the vaccine can be tried on humans. Baptist church diverts donations to missions NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A 2,200-member Southern Baptist church is diverting most of its na tional donations — about $88,000 — from the conservative-dominated Southern Baptist Convention to a new fund set up by moderates. Woodmont Baptist Church, lo cated only about 10 miles from the SBC worldwide headquarters, will reroute the donations to the new Baptist Cooperative Missions Pro gram in Atlanta. Baptist moderates opened the fund in August despite warnings from conservative leaders that it could threaten to split the country’s largest Protestant denomination. Baptist churches traditionally have donated money to the SBC’s Cooperative Program, which has a budget of about $140 million this year and provides funds to 20 SBC agencies, including six seminaries. Woodmont voted to give 69 per cent of its donations to the new pro gram and 31 percent to the tradi tional one. “That is the way Baptists ought to operate,” said the Rev. Bill Sherman, pastor at Woodmont. “This way there is a place for all Baptists, but those in control now don’t see it that way.” John Bryant, chairman of the church’s 45 active deacons, said the decision is not part of a move to di vide the SBC, which has 14.9 million members. “We view this as a means of stay ing in the SBC. We’d like to see the convention become unified and move forward,” Bryant said Wednesday. “I don’t believe Woodmont is beating the drum to split the conven tion.” The defense secretary saidhisoi ders from Bush were to use Amen can forces to deter Saddam fromic vading Saudi Arabia, to prepare to defend the Saudi kingdom in tlif event of an attack and to enforcetht U.N. sanctions against Iraq. “We want to have the capabilin for t he president to make the deci sion to use other options should that become necessary in response to a provocation, for example," Chenev said. He was referring to a possible U.S. offensive action. At another point, he said, “Fora number of reasons I would expecti continuing flow of forces tothegol in the period ahead.” Cheney did not provide detailsei the additional U.S. deployment' planned. When asked by an inter viewer whether as many as 100,1 more troops might be sent, Chene said: “It’s conceivable that we'll end up with that big an increase." Tax on rich to increase 6.3 percent WASHINGTON (AP) - Con sumers would pay more for gasoline, cigarettes and beer under the defi cit-reduction plan nearing comple tion in Congress. But the wealthiest Americans would face inconie-tas increases averaging 6.3 percental well. As many as 4 million slightly less well-to-do couples and individuals- including most members of Con gress — could get a tax cut because the top rate on their earnings, no* 33 percent, would drop to 31 per cent. They also would get the bill’s onh tax break for capital gains. It is noth ing like President Bush’s proposed deep cut in taxes on capital gains which are profits from investments But it would prevent anyone from paying a capital-gains rate higher than 28 percent. The 600,000 richest taxpayers would see their top tax rate rise from 28 percent to 31 percent. Even those with incomes just slightly above the $100,000 mark could lose a portion of their itemized deductions and part of the tax saving arising from their personal exemptions. The bill would raise taxes bf about $150 billion over the next five years. But for most people below $50,000 in income, the only increase would be in consumer taxes. Those with incomes under $20,000 would, on average, getatas cut because of a higher earned-in- come credit, which helps poor work ing families with children. Most with incomes between $20,000 and $200,000 would face tax increases in the neighborhood of 2 percent although the bite on those between $50,000 and $75,000 would be slightly less— 1.5 percent. The most striking difference be tween this bill and those ofthefc 1 decade is the disproportionate!- larger burden the new plan would impose on those with higher im comes. The Joint Committee on Taxation estimated the share offed eral taxes paid by people with im comes over $200,000 would rise from 15.4 percent to 16.1 percent The bill would raise the 9-cent-J' gallon gasoline tax and the 15-ctn 1 diesel tax by 5 cents each. The tax on cigarettes, now 1 ; cents a pack, would rise to 20cen E on Jan. 1.
