"We need a new form of government that is smaller, less bureaucratic, more creative ... but one that is an effective partner, notadisabledor amean (gov- ernment) on the sideline," he said in Los Angeles last week. ButClinton faces an uphill struggle in changing the public's impression of him. Tomorrow evening's speech will be only a start, at best. "Itisn't easy to change the public's view of a sitting president," said po- litical scientist William Schneider, a contributing editor to the Los Ange- les Times' Opinion section and a CNN political analyst. "After two years, people have a pretty good idea of what they think of Clinton. Most Americans think he's a good man who wants the right things. But they have also concluded that he's weak and ineffectual ... and it's hard to turn that around," Schneider said. It might seem strange for a presi- dent who has been speaking in public almost every day for years to find it necessary to reintroduce himself. But Clinton and his aides believe that a major factor behind his party's sweep- ing defeat in November's congres- sional election was their own inabil- ity to effectively communicate Clinton's vision and values. "It's easy to be demonized when you're a long way from where people live," Clinton fretted in a speech last month. The middle-class voters who put the Republicans into power "are the very people I've been up here killing myself for two years trying to help," he said. Rivers said that the Washington establishment often hurts the images of politicians. "Most of the Washing- ton population exists to either create and image, or to destroy an image, or to somehow manipulate information," she asserted, "and I think that's the problem most people have with Wash- ington." There is at least one precedent for what Clinton hopes to do, he noted: "Harry Truman did it in 1947 and 1948," after a similarly disastrous loss in both houses of Congress. But Truman won his image as a strong leader by taking the initiative in Cold War confrontations with the Soviet Union, threatening to seize U.S. railroads during a 1948 strike and challenging a passive Republican Congress to act on his domestic agenda. "He had opportunities that Clinton doesn't have," Schneider said. The Washington Post WASHINGTON - The Justice Department is set to announce steps today that would force a number of states to comply with the federal "mo- tor voter" law that allows people to register to vote when they apply for driver's licenses or social services, said sources familiar with the department's plans. A lawsuit is among the tactics under consideration for use against states that have either made little or no effort to enforce the law or have expressed opposition to the matter, the sources said. California, Pennsyl- vania, Illinois and South Carolina are among the states facing possible ac- tion, the sources said. Under the law, the Justice Department can sue to force compliance. The action under consideration by Attorney General Janet Reno would represent the latest salvo in an in- Justice to enforce . 'motor voter' law creasingly heated legal battle that inter- twines politics and the long-standing debate over states' rights. The Clinton administration strongly supports enforc- ing the law, which it believes will ex- tend the vote to people who tradition- ally have been unregistered and disen- franchised. But some state leaders con- tend the law represents another "un- funded federal mandate" requiring states to implement a measure without federal dollars to do so. Late last month, Republican Cali- fornia Gov. Pete Wilson filed a law- suit in federal court seeking to bar the administration from enforcing the law and ordered his state agencies not to implement it. Wilson's move was in open defiance to the Clinton adminis- tration and Reno, who last year prom- ised to use the authority of the depart- ment to enforce the law. Wilson has said that enforcement of the law would cost $35.8 million annually. 0 L Jniverky ToWers Apaimens 536 S.

The carnage at Beit Lid was the worst since anothersuicide bomber blew up a bus full of commuters in down- town Tel Aviv in October, killing 23 people. Lastyear, suicide bombers from radical Islamic groups also struck in Jerusalem and two central Israeli towns. In response to yesterday's attack, the Israeli Cabinet ordered the army to seal the Palestinian territories, both the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, to pre- vent Palestinians from entering Israel. The Cabinet, meeting late into the evening, also decided to freeze the planned release of Palestinian prison- ers and to suspend the use of special transit corridors for Palestinians trav- eling between the Gaza Strip and the West Bank town of Jericho. But the Cabinet resolved to con- tinue negotiations with the PLO over the extension of Palestinian self-rule on the West Bank, the pullback of Israeli forces in the region and the holding of Palestinian elections. President Ezer Weizman, in an unusual challenge to Rabin, publicly demanded that the talks be suspended in an effort to force PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat to crack down on the Islamic groups opposed to the peace agreement with Israel. STUDENTS Continued from page 1 standing. "Only through interaction with other people can you become more open and learn," Robinson said. "Having political debates can not be the only way to broaden your horizons." Regular contact between the two groups began in winter 1993 with issue-related "study groups." Study group participants discussed readings that addressed contentious issues such as jurisdiction over water rights and the status of Jerusalem. One example of further collabo- ration between the two groups was a side-by-side demonstration on the Diag to protest last year's massacre of 48 Muslims at a mosque in Hebron. Both groups stress their indepen- dence from the parties to the Arab- Israeli conflict. "PSC is a solidarity group. It does not claim to represent or speak on behalf of the Palestinian people," Dawood said. Dawood added she is the only active PSC member of Palestinian descent. In conjunction with the Interfaith Council on Peace and Justice, the two organizations are planning a teach-in on issues jeopardizing the peace pro- cess, which will commemorate the 30th anniversary of the University's first teach-in.

ABORTION Continued from page 1 lose political support in Washington, have roundly condemned the violence as well. Catholic leaders have even called for a moratorium on protests outside abortion clinics because of the shootings. More than 500 U.S. hospitals and clinics have stopped offering abortions since the early 1980s, and the number of young physicians who learn abortion techniques as part of their training has plummeted. Re- productive-health researchers say the decrease has contributed to a decline in abortions in the United States. The U.S. abortion rate fell in 1992 to 25.9 abortions per 1,000 women of child-bearing age, its lowest level since 1976, according to a recent study by the Alan Guttmacher Institute, a non-profit group that researches sexu- ality and contraception. Yet many militant anti-abortion organizations have dismissed the calls for a moratorium. "With all due respect, (the mora- torium) does not make good moral or tactical sense," said Robert Schenck, a Protestant minister and an anti-abor- tion leader in Washington. "If America wants to reject vio- lence, let it reject abortion without further delay," added Frank Pavone, national director of Priests for Life, a Staten Island, N.Y. anti-abortion group.
