2 - The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, March 19, 1997 NATE ONIWo RLD - White House to find new nominee WASHINGTON (AP) - Reeling from Anthony Lake's sudden withdrawal, the White House considered a quick move yesterday to name acting CIA Director George Tenet as a substitute nominee to head the nation's spy agency. Senior White House officials, Republican senators and even Lake him- self advanced Tenet's name as a non-con- troversial way to bring a new chief to a CIA that has been without a confirmed director since early December. Other names were on President Clinton's short list, but Tenet was the only candidate undergoing a final White House review and could be nominated as early as today. "I have a lot of respect for him. We believe he's capable," said Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.), chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee and the man who orchestrated much of the criticism of Lake that led to his withdrawing his name Monday night. Shelby indicated the committee could move quickly on a Tenet nomination - in sharp contrast to the drawn-out consideration of Lake's nomination. White House Press Secretary Mike McCurry said Clinton wanted to move quickly but was not ready yesterday to fill the vacancy left by the departure in last year's post-election shuffle of John Deutch. Senior White House officials who spoke anonymously said Clinton's staff was pushing Tenet's candidacy in private meetings with the president. In an unsolicited appraisal, McCurry told reporters that the front-running Tenet "does a spectacular job and has a great reputation inside the agency. I think he's very well liked on the Hill." Without mentioning Tenet by name, Clinton suggested his list was down to one name. SAROUND.THENATIN Schwartz says donations aren't favors WASHINGTON-When aerospace executive Bernard Schwartz got phone calls from Democratic National Committee Co-Chair Donald Fowler, he usually opened his checkbook, Schwartz said. The $600,000 that Schwartz gave various Democratic fund-raising committees in 1995 and 1996 made him one of the party's biggest donors. Schwartz, chief executive of Loral Space & Communications Ltd., said he never asked for a favor in return, or received one. The numerous Pentagon co - tracts and favorable decisions he has received from the Clinton administration, including its antitrust approval of Bethesda-based Lockheed Martin Corp.'s $9.bil- lion purchase of his Loral Corp. last year, would have been rendered without the donations, he said. Schwartz said he would never ask President Clinton for favors. "It would be inappropriate for me" he said, "and embarrassing for him." Rather, he said he contributed to the Democrats because he agrees with their ideas. He said he enjoys discussing his proposals for infrastructure investment with Clinton, and derives "psychic income" from donating his money. One aerospace industry official agreed, saying the Manhattan-based Schwa "gives money the way Barbra Streisand does. It's the groupie syndrome. He's in our (industry) club, but in their (New York liberal) club." Anthony Lake is sworn in on Capitol Hill Monday before withdrawing.

Netanyahu and his officials said the project is meant to demonstrate Israel's commitment, as senior aide Dore Gold put it yesterday, to "protect Jerusalem from being redivided." Palestinian leaders, backed by the Clinton admin- istration and other governments around the world, regard it as an effort to preempt negotiations that Israel is committed to conducting on the city's "permanent status." The United States renewed its criti- cism of the Israeli project yesterday, as Secretary of State Madeleine Albright urged both sides to resume talks, Reuter reported. "I think that the Israelis under- stand the difficulties that we see with their going forward," Albright said. Arafat, who has several times called the project illegal, adopted a mild pub- lic profile in an effort to counter Israeli charges that he is fomenting violent acts behind the scenes. He met in Gaza City with Yuval Rabin, the son of slain prime minister Yitzhak Rabin, and said afterward, "We discussed ways and means of how we together can protect and save the peace process."

"What's happening now is that peo- ple see some potential for movement within the new administration," D'Alecy said. "There becomes more and more of a need for faculty govern- ment." MacAlpine could not be reached for comment yesterday. Herman headed for Senate approval . WASHINGTON - A day after the Senate confirmation process claimed a victim when Anthony Lake withdrew his nomination to head the CIA, Labor secretary-designee Alexis Herman appeared headed for congressional approval after a hearing yesterday that tread lightly on allegations that she mixed politics and policy as a White House aide. Still, the chair of the Senate Education and Labor Committee warned Herman that she "made mis- takes" in a culture where confusion between politics and policy may have been inevitable. "Fortunately for all of us, the stan- dard for public office is not perfection," said Sen. Jim Jeffords (R-Vt.). "But neither is it sufficient to say, 'Everybody does it.' They don't." In a sign that Herman may have overcome concerns previously raised about her nomination, by the end of a nearly four-hour hearing she won acco- AROUND THI N. Korean defector escapes to safety BEIJING-Five weeks after he walked into a South Korean consulate here seeking political asylum from the regime he helped create, a top-ranking North Korean defector was in the Philippines under heavy security yes- terday, his first stop on a journey that is expected to end eventually in Seoul. Philippine officials confirmed that Hwang Jang Yop, 74, author of the iso- lationist code of self-reliance-or "juche"-practiced in North Korea, landed in a charter aircraft at former U.S. Clark Air Force Base near Manila. Military officials told Reuter news agency that Hwang was then taken to Baguio, 125 miles north of Manila. The cloak-and-dagger exit by the most senior official ever to defect from North Korea ended a diplomatic paral- ysis that caught the Chinese govern- ment between its longtime Communist ally, North Korea, and its important new economic partner, South Korea. And the breakthrough came only a lades from lawmakers, incliding Sen. John Warner (R-Va.) and Tim Hutchison (R-Ark.), who earlier had signaled they had doubts about her fit- ness for the job. The Senate labor panel is expectedjo vote to send Herman's nominatio the full Senate following a two-w congressional recess that starts Friday. Caifornia shaken by 5. earthquake . CALICO GHOST TOWN, Calif."- Century-old buildings and a modern overpass were cracked and nerves rattled yesterday by a magnitude-5.4 earth- quake, an aftershock of a 1992 temblor. No injuries were reported in the 7* a.m. quake, which was centered 12 miles east-northeast of Barstow. It was the latest of about 60,000 aftershocks to the magnitude-7.3 Landers quake. That temblor on June 28, 1992, was followed within hoursby a 6.5 quake near Big Bear in the San Bernardino Mountains. Together, they killed one person, injured 400 and caused nearly $100 million in dama Ew WORUt week before U.S. Vice President Al Gore is scheduled to visit Beijing. In the end, China's government, which does not recognize the right of asylum in diplomatic missions, si with the South Koreans, accepting an offer from Philippine authorities to temporarily harbor the prized defector. Zaire residents fear change after Mobutu KINSHASA, Zaire - When resi- dents contemplate life after President Mobutu Sese Seko, they see nightm* visions of a military coup, the collapse of the government, or riots to celebrate the end of his dictatorship. Paranoia is sweeping through the cap. ital, fueled by Mobutu being in the h s- pital in Monaco and the fall.of Kisangani to anti-government rebels who now control much of eastern Zaire. Topping things off, there are no clear rules on who would take over after Mobutu. - Compiled from Daily wire reports.
