Although Middleton will not reveal
her stand on this issue, she speaks
freely about other issues, like down-
town development.
MIDDLETON said the city should
help find ways to bring people down-
town.
She supports the city's effort to
build new housing because she thinks
this will increase traffic downtown.
One North Main, currently under
construction, will contain retail, office
and housing space. Although this
project lacks low-income housing,
another project which will be built on
city-owned land at First and William,
will contain some low-income
housing.
Middleton also supports downtown
development because she said it will
increase the city's taxybase.
"I DON'T think anybody would
disagree that for the city to broaden
the tax base, it must have new
development," Middleton said.
"No one wants to bear the burden of
noisy traffic or the impact of higher
density though," she said.
Middleton voted for the city's
proposed Huron Plaza hotel and con-
ference center because she felt it
would add to the tax base and bring
people into the city. On March 24,
however, city council defeated the site
plan for the 400-room hotel and con-
ference center which would have
housed 1,500 people. The center was to
be located at the corner of First and
Huron.
Contratto said she would have voted

against the plan, thinking the con-
ference center would have a negative
impact on the city. "I have serious
reservations about the size of the
building," she said. "It might have a
serious impact on the housing and the
adjacent small businesses."
SHE IS also worried about traffic
safety problems that may arise from
the added flow of people.
The candidates also disagree on
Proposal B, which would allow the city
to borrow 3 million dollars for road
repair.
Contra tto supports the proposal
because she does not "see where the
money for street repair will come
from."
Middleton said that since roads are
a basic service repair costs should
come from the city's general fund.

UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL REPORTS
Police hunt TWA bomber
ATHENS, Greece - Police are hunting for an Arab woman suspected
of planting the bomb that exploded on a TWA jetliner over southern
Greece, killing four Americans, police sources said yesterday.
The sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a woman called
May Elias Mansur, a known terrorist, flew on the TWA Boeing 727 from
Cairo to Athens Wednesday morning. The plane went on to Rome and the
bomb exploded during its return flight from Rome to Athens Wednesday
afternoon.
"We have launched a search around Athens and other cities and also
put out a signal to trace this person through Interpol," one police source
said. Earlier yesterday in Rome, Italian Interior Minister Oscar Luigi
Scalfaro said, 'It is certain that a suspect person, who is on file as a
terrorist, got on in Cairo and got off in Athens, occupying in the airplane
the exact seat where the explosion occurred."
The pilot. Capt. Richard Peterson, told reporters yesterday at Athens
airport, "I think the explosive device was placed at floor level near the
cabin wall . . . in row 10F. But the crew didn't see anyone acting
suspiciously."
Astronaut says Challenger
rocket seal defects known
WASHINGTON - Astronaut Robert Crippen, who has flown more space
shuttle flights than anyone else, told the presidential Challenger com-
mission yesterday he once was told about a problem with a booster rocket
seal but he did not consider it "that big a deal."
But, said Crippen, he was not aware that a waiver had been issued
that, in effect, acknowledged that catastrophe could result if the seal
failed.
"If I had been aware of the change," he said, "I would have taken the
problem much more seriously."
A leaking seal in the right booster rocket is believed to have caused the
explosion that destroyed Challenger and killed its crew of seven on liftoff
Jan. 28.
Crippen and three other astronauts who appeared today testified that
no escape system could have kept the astronauts alive in that situation.
However, astronaut Henry Hartsfield said he would like to see some
sort of low-altitude survival capability, such as one that would allow
astronauts to bail out. Crippen, however, said a bailout might not be
feasible.
Pentagon to push for MX
WASHINGTON - Despite the certainty of a new confrontation with
Congress, the Pentagon will continue fighting for 100 MX missiles, a top
Defense Department official said yesterday.
Donald Hicks, the under secretary of defense for research and
engineering, also said the Pentagon will delay development of a new
mobile missile until it's certain the right design has been selected.
Hicks, who is responsible for overseeing the development of new
weapons, said he was not concerned about resurrecting the supposedly
dead issue of deploying a second group of 50 MX missiles or disturbing
any political consensus on the mobile missile, which has been dubbed the
Midgetman.
"I'm going to make another run on the MX," Hicks said during a break-
fast meeting with reporters. "I think they're terribly important and an
incredibly cheap.investment for what they do for us in terms of deterren-
ce and helping us with arms control."
As for the Midgetman, which is now in the early stages of development,
Hicks said there are still too many unresolved money and technical
questions to hope for deployment by 1992.
Aquino, rebels discuss peace
MANILA, Philippines - President Corazon Aquino, responding to a
proposal by communist insurgents for cease-fire talks, announced
yesterday she will appoint a special emissary to begin negotiations with
rebel forces.
Presidential spokesman Rene Saguisag said the decision came after
the government received a two-page statement from the underground
National Democratic Front declaring its readiness to enter a dialogue
aimed at ending armed hostilities.
Saguisag said Aquino "is in the process of selecting an emissary to get
in touch with the opposite numbers, so to speak, of the National
Democratic Front."
The National Democratic Front is the political wing of the outlawed
Communist Party of the Philippines. The Communist Party's military
arm, the New People's Army, has an estimated 16,000 armed troops
operating in most of the country's 74 provinces.
Filipino official: U.S. keeping
papers on Marcos' wealth
MANILA, Philippines - A government minister yesterday charged the
United States is withholding key documents the Philippines feels it is en-
titled to have in its bid to recover deposed ruler Ferdinand Marcos' "hid-
den wealth."
Minister Jovito Salonga, head of the Good Government Commission,
returned Wednesday from a 19-day mission to the United States and
reported to President Corazon Aquino that he brought back evidence
detailing how Marcos had illegally stashed away assets during his 20
years in power.
Salonga said the bulk of Marcos' allegedly ill-gotten wealth -
described in the billions of dollars - was deposited in bank accounts in
Switzerland by the deposed president, close associates and subordinates.
Salonga declined to estimate the total amount of assets sent abroad by
Marcos and his "cronies," saying documents turn up almost daily.
He said the commission has evidence linking Marcos to properties in
the United States, England, Austria, Switzerland and Canada.
