WASHINGTON — More prisoners likely will be put to death in the United States this year than in any year since states were allowed to resume capital punishment in 1976. The execution of a Texas murderer Tuesday raised this year's total to 25, tying the previous high set in 1987. Texas death row inmate James Demouchette was killed by lethal injection Tuesday for two 1976 murders in Houston. His was the 10th execution in Texas this year. More than 2,600 men and women are on death rows across the nation; dozens of them have executions scheduled in the remaining three months of 1992. Many are likely to win postponements, however. Leigh Dingerson of the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty predicted a growing number of executions in future years. "More death row prisoners are exhausting their appeals, and it's also very clear there's a new mood in federal and state courts that is much less tolerant of death row appeals," she said. Those factors will cause "a slight rise in the yearly totals," Dingerson said, adding, "I don't believe there will be any sudden release of the floodgates. There are many complex factors that go into the pace of executions." .ns The Supreme Court in 1972 ruled thatcapit | punishment as then practiced was uneonstitution Wedm States subsequently passed new laws and in 19 court ruled that the death penalty could, i certain guidelines, be constitutional. Demouchette's execution was the 182nd sincellt ruling.

Two people who made such sugges tions Monday were Kissinger's colleagues from the Nixon administration — de fense secretaries James R. Schlesinger and Melvin Laird. The former secretary of state and national security adviser ac knowledged that even as he nego tiated peace with the North Viet namese, he recognized they had not provided an adequate ac counting for missing Americans. "I think it's improbable any are alive today," Kissinger said. "I have always kept open the possi bility in my mind there were some in Laos." Kissinger testified a day after other former Nixon officials, in cluding Schlesinger and Laird, said they believed some American prisoners were still in Vietnam or Laos after the withdrawal of U.S. troops and the 1973 release of more than 591 prisoners of war. The former defense secretaries cit ed reliable reports of more POWs than were released. Kissinger "If we had known, if we had heard this, we would have acted on it," Kissinger said. He bitterly disputed sugges tions "that when President Nixon announced that all prisoners were on the way home, he or his aides knew that many were left be hind." "The allegation is a flat-out lie," Kissinger said, blaming the asser tions on "leaks that could only M Ulcer Studies Do you have stomach pain? Indigestion? Heartburn? Perhaps we could help!

Quayle Continued from Page 1 Republican education policyisto allow parents to choose tht schools they send their children to, Quayle said. Another agenda item Quayle attacked Clinton on was healtl care reform. The future of tilt U.S. health care plan has been seen by many political analysts as the fulcrum of the election year see-saw. The current plan has been mired in continuous controversy and labeled ineffeo tive, and partial to middle-to up' per-class Americans. "By the year 2000 ... the aver age family will be spending $12,000 a year on health insur ance," Quayle said. The average cost of healthcare is increasing at a rate twice that of the average inflation rate which has left 34 million Ameri cans without adequate health care. The Republican agenda in cludes lowering health care costs by passing medical malpractice legislation limiting rewardslo plaintiffs in malpractice suits. "We want to make sure every American has health insurance, and we want to do it through ta< credits and vouchers, andnota national ration health care plan." The Republican plan also would grant tax credits to em ployers who provide health care for their employees, and would allow unemployed Americansac- cess to quality, affordable health care.
