Clinton’s approval high despif

WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi
dent Clinton bolstered his already
robust standing in the polls with a
State of the
Union address
that focused on
problems facing
Americans but
did not mention
his own biggest
problem — the
Senate impeach
ment trial.
Polls released cunton
Wednesday by
ABC, CBS and NBC suggested the
public’s approval of Clinton’s job
performance are near all-time
highs even as the Senate is hearing
evidence on whether the president
should be removed from office.
His job approval rating ranged
from 66 percent in the ABC poll to
72 percent in the CBS poll to 76
percent in the NBC poll.
His approval numbers were
three to five points higher after the
speech, depending on the poll.
Almost four out of five Ameri
cans who watched President Clin
ton’s State of the Union address ap
proved of most of his proposals and
agreed with his decision not to

the proposals suggested by Clinton
will save Social Security.
By better than a 2-to-l margin,
those polled by ABC said it’s more
important for the federal govern
ment to use the surplus for
Medicare and Social Security rather
than tax cuts.
Republicans favor applying part
of the surplus for Social Security,
but want to use the remainder for
tax cuts.
The president advocated using
the surplus to bolster a number of
areas of spending, most notably So
cial Security.
The president's ebullient de
scription of the nation’s economic
growth had an effect on thos

After the speech, 40 p

Medical institute says cancer resear
should focus on ‘special populatioi
WASHINGTON (AP) — Scientists studying why some
minorities are more prone to certain types of cancer
should focus on regional and ethnic groups rather than
the current four broad racial categories, the Institute of
Medicine said Wednesday.
Studying cancer rates among smaller groups it
termed “special populations” will allow researchers to
more accurately measure the impact of such things as
“cultural and behavioral factors, beliefs, lifestyle pat
terns, diet, environmental living conditions and other
factors,” said the institute, which advises the govern
ment on health issues.
The report called on the National Institutes of
Health to increase its efforts to determine why mi
norities are more prone to develop and die from cer
tain types of cancer.
