Senate OKs $10.5 billion for hurricane aid
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Rushing to keep up with
Mother Nature, the Senate overwhelmingly
approved $10.5 billion in disaster aid on Tues
day to help Hawaii rebuild from Hurricane
Iniki, and assist Hurricane Andrew's victims
in Florida and Louisiana.
Senators approved the measure on a 84-10
vote. House-Senate negotiators will now try to
write a compromise bill, which Senate Appro
priations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd,
D-W.Va., said could be done as early as this
week.
"Kauai is a scene of unimaginable devasta
tion," said Sen. Daniel Akaka, D-Hawaii, refer
ring to a weekend trip he made to the island
that bore the brunt of the Iniki's destruction.
"Whenever you see a coconut tree and its
leaves stripped, you know that its winds were
strong."
Earlier, the lawmakers used voice votes to
make two major changes in the measure. They
added a final $3 billion to address Iniki's toll
and the growing pleas for help from areas bat
tered by Andrew. And they inserted an extra
$66 million to rebuild small parts of Home
stead Air Force Base, far less than President
Bush wanted.
Eager to show they can respond to emergen
cies, lawmakers and Bush seemed likely to
work out their differences quickly. But the
bill's immediate future was clouded because it
included an unrelated provision on labor regu
lations that drew veto threats from Bush ad
ministration officials.
The $10.5 billion measure would be easily
the biggest federal relief package ever for a
natural disaster, dwarfing the $2.9 billion ap
proved in 1990 for California's Loma Prieta
earthquake. It would also further swell the fed
eral deficit.
The original $7.5 billion hurricane bill, com
pleted last Thursday, was rendered moot a day
later when Iniki slammed Hawaii with 160
mph winds and 30-foot waves. Iniki left three
dead, 8,000 homeless and caused an estimated
$1 billion in damage.
Estimates of Andrew's damages continued
to swell.
"This is one time I think this place is moving
too quickly," said Sen. Connie Mack, R-Fla.
"We keep getting information."
Andrew, the costliest natural disaster to ever
hit the United States, is so far blamed for 55
deaths and nearly $22 billion in damage. The
storm left more than 250,000 homeless.
Mack and other Florida officials won more
aid for their state, but less than they initially
hoped.
On a voice vote, the Senate accepted an
amendment by Mack and Sen. Bob Graham, D-
Fla., that would provide $66 million to rebuild
some of the facilities at destroyed Homestead
Air Force Base.
The money would allow enough reconstruc
tion to let the U.S. Customs Service and other
agencies that use the base to resume function
ing. But no money was provided for work that
would allow a fighter wing to return to the air
base.
An additional $26 million to remove rubble
and begin planning for possible reconstruction
was already in the measure, bringing the total
for Homestead to $92 million.

Former Exxon guard gives
guilty plea in kidnapping
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MORRISTOWN, N.J. - A
former Exxon security officer
pleaded guilty Tuesday to state
kidnapping and murder
charges in the fatal abduction of
company executive Sidney J.
Reso.
Arthur D. Seale's plea came
one week after he admitted in
federal court that he planned
and carried out the April 29
kidnapping and accidentally
shot Reso during the abduction.
Reso died four days later.
■ Seale faced a maximum sen
tence of life in prison with no
chance of parole for at least 30
years, fines up to $2 million and
$20,000 in restitution on the
state charges. He also faces a
maximum penalty of 95 years
when he is sentenced on federal
charges.
"Arthur Seale wanted to
plead guilty from the very be
ginning, after being assured
that the state would not seek
the death penalty," defense
lawyer Joseph O'Neill said out
side court. He said Seale wants
to write a letter to Reso's wid
ow "to explain what hap
pened" and convey "his re
morse to her."
Attorney Rudy Westmore
land, representing Seale in civil
matters, said television net
works and others have ex
pressed interest in his story.
And O'Neill said: "He wants
the world to know that he is not
a monster."
Both U.S. Attorney Michael
Chertoff and Morris County
Prosecutor W. Michael Murphy
said they would move to seize
Seale's assets and any earnings
he might get from selling his
story, to apply toward fines and
restitution to Reso's family.
Answering a series of ques
tions from Superior Court
Judge Reginald Stanton, Seale
acknowledged that he and his
wife, Irene, grabbed Reso from
the driveway of his Morris
Township home. Asked if he
shot Reso, Seale said his gun
"accidentally discharged."
Seale quietly answered "yes"
as the judge asked him whether
he took Reso to a storage locker
and left him in a wooden box
with his eyes and mouth taped
shut. Asked if Reso was given
any medical attention, Seale
said, "He was treated by my
wife and myself."
MOSCOW — Russian unem
ployment could jump nearly 20-
fold to more than 5 million people
next year as cuts in subsidies dri
ve more businesses into bank
ruptcy, a senior official said in re
marks published Tuesday.
Farmers picketed in cities
across Russia on Tuesday,
protesting that reforms have dri
ven up the prices they must pay
at a faster rate than prices they re
ceive for their produce.
Inflation has skyrocketed since
President Boris Yeltsin accelerat
ed reform by freeing prices last
January. So far his government
has balked at cutting subsidies to
unprofitable state-owned busi
nesses for fear of sinking them
Fight

night should never have been put
in the position of having to tackle
A&M students in the first place,"
Michaels said.
Koldus agreed that the Corps
should not have to restrain stu
dents. He plans to meet with
leaders from the Corps, fraterni
ties and other student organiza
tions to ensure Friday's episode
does not happen again.
Wiatt said student leaders
must step forward and encourage
others not to run onto Kyle Field
during yell practice.
"Each student leader has a fol
lowing that looks to him as the
designated leader," he said.
"(That leader) has to pass the
word down that we are not going
to do this. This is a dangerous be
havior."
Should university police help
cadets guard the field during yell
practice to avoid future violence?
Yeltsin vowed last week to
fight hyperinflation by slashing
subsidies. A wide-scale privatiza
tion program he promised to
launch Oct. 1 is expected to cause
bankruptcies and social hardship.
Economics Minister Andrei
Nechayev said the number of
people needing work next year
could rise to about 7 million peo
ple, or 8 percent of the work force.
Nechayev, quoted in the gov
ernment's Rossiskiye Vesti (Russ
ian News), said about 5 million of
the 7 million would be officially
'jobless/ of which about 4.7 mil
lion will receive unemployment
relief.
"I guess that's not one of their
primary functions," Darling said.
"We would welcome their assis
tance, but I don't think we can ex
pect them to solve all of our prob
lems."
Wiatt said, "If the student lead
ers cannot adequately protect
people and request university po
lice, we will seal off the field and
do whatever is necessary to pro
tect life and limb."
Currently, University and Col
lege Station police jointly patrol
the outside of Kyle Field to limit
the flow of alcohol into the stadi
um and to cite students for minor
in possession and public intoxica
tion.
Besides preserving tradition
and avoiding violence, students
should stay off Kyle Field to limit
wear-and-tear of the field, Koldus
said.
"The concern for the athletic
department is that they don't
want a lot of people messing up
the field," he said. "When you
get a large crowd you can damage
it in all sorts of ways."
Cancer
Continued from Page 4
Davis said that there are seven
warning signs to check if a”person
has cancer. The signs include:
•a change in bowel or bladder
habits
• a sore that does not heal
• unusual bleeding or discharge
•a thickening or lump in breast
or elsewhere
•indigestion or difficulty in
swallowing
•obvious change in wart or
mole
•nagging cough or hoarseness
If you or anyone you know has
any or all of these signs, they
should see a physician, Davis
said.
Over the years, cancer survival
rates have improved. Today, one
out of two persons survive cancer
at least five years after treatment,
compared with one in five surviv
ing the disease sixty years ago.
Victims of cancer or their rela
tives can call 1-800-ACS-2345 to
learn more about the disease.
