2- The Michigan Daily - Friday, February 6, 1998 N AT1ON/ WORL D U.S. defense secretary to meet with Saudis AROUND THE NATION ,f. .._ ~ f y ,J t I ' e IRAQ Continued from Page 1 that Saddam is not to be trustedl and his past behavior gives little reason to believe he will yield. "Everyone hopes a diplomatic solution is available and can work, Blair said. "We all want that. But I think all of our experience of Saddam Hussein teach- es us that diplomacy has very little chance of working unless it is clear to him that if. diplomacy does not work, then the threat and the reality of force is there." If force is used, Clinton said, its purpose will not be to eliminate Saddam, as some members of Congress and some independent analysts have urged. He said such an aim would go beyond a United Nations mandate to enforce sanctions, and he would not deviate from an executive order issued in the 1970s by President Gerald Ford banning assassination of foreign leaders. It appeared yesterday that the diplomats pressing their case with Iraq have at least several days, and pos- sibly a few weeks, to deliver results Washington and London consider credible. Defense Secretary William Cohen left last night for a security conference in Germany that he will follow with visits to Saudi Arabia and other gulf states for talks about possible military action. The movement of the Marine contingent from the Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf would take at least 10 days, defense offi- cials said. A senior general at the Pentagon said Gen. Anthony Zinni, commander of U.S. forces in the gulf, had requested the Marines as a precaution in the event Saddam launches a counter-attack in response to U.S. air strikes. Their presence will bring the total number of U.S. troops in the region to more than 30,000. "That response could take numerous twists," the gen- eral said. "One of them might be to literally try to move troops south again" into Kuwait or Saudi Arabia. "Or another might be to try to put some of the cities in the region in harm's way using some kind of missiles. "The Marines could help provide some mobile ground forces. And secondly, they provide the ability to evacuate non-combatants if necessary." Vedrine said France will continue its effort to con- vince the Iraqis that "they have to accept the fact that the (U.N. Special) Commission has to be able to work and that in disarmament matters it isn't humiliating to allow an inspection commission to work ... We have to persevere, be tenacious and patient." China publicly added its voice to those publicly dis- senting from U.S. and British plans to use military force. Foreign Minister Qian Qichen, speaking on televi- sion, said "China is extremely and definitely opposed to the use of military force because it will result in a tremendous amount of human casualties and create more turmoil in the region and even could cause new conflicts." New AIDS drug may decrease costs CHICAGO - Researchers in Los Angeles and Washington have identified wha may be the first inexpensive AIDS drug, a finding that could have major impor tance for the 50 percent of H IV-positive Americans not receiving treatment because of its cost. They also say that the drug, in conjunction with two other AIDS drugs, ha induced what may be a permanent remission in three HIV-positive patients have now gone for more than a year without treatment. Although experts are skeptical about the remission claims, many ar< impressed by reported successes with the drug, called hydroxyurea, and hav< begun incorporating it into their own treatment regimens. The drug is unique in that it affects host cells in the patient rather than th< virus itself. "I think it is going to become a pretty permanent fixture" in AIDS thera py, said Dr. Paul Volberding of the University of California, San Francisco "By itself, it is not an antiviral agent, but it seems to make other drugs worl better." The researchers say they think the drug works so well because HIV can develop resistance to it. Moreover, they also say that hydroxyurea also les chances of HIV resistance to other AIDS drugs as well. -1" Achieve Your Maximum Score At EXCEL, we focus upon the key distinctions that result in great scores.

At the same time, the Clinton administration said it could support legislation to protect tobacco companies from most lawsuits. "We obviously prefer a comprehen- sive tobacco bill without any liability limits" White House spokesperson Mike McCurry said. However, he said, "If we get everything we want in the tobacco bill, which goes to the heart of the president's public health recommen- dations ... then reasonable limits on lia- bility would not be a deal-breaker." But numerous lawmakers remained cool to the $368 billion settlement reached in June between states and tobacco companies, not wanting to grant favors in this election to an industry that tried to hook children on tobacco prod- ucts. The deal would end 40 state law suits against the industry and grant thi companies protection from class-actio lawsuits if the companies pay the mone over 25 years and change business prac tices, such as marketing. Industry exec utives, meanwhile, are demanding lawsuit protection. Agents arrest library employee for theft NEW YORK - FBI agents arrestei an employee of the New York Publi Library yesterday on charges of steal ing seven rare original manuscripts an letters by composers Wolfgal Amadeus Mozart and Richard Wagne Some of the items - includin musical score written by Mozart in 170 - are worth tens of thousands of dollai on the open market, experts said.

But U.N. officials said the proposals appear to fall short of what is required to determine whether the sites hide illegal weapons. A procession of Russian, French, Turkish and Arab diplomats have been visiting Baghdad this week to find a resolution to the Iraqi impasse. That has generated reports that Iraq may permit inspectors into "presiden- tial palaces" and other sites for a lim- ited period, if accompanied by diplo- mats from the 15 nations represented on the U.N. Security Council. The council oversees the disarmament commission. U.N. Delegates stressed that nothing official had been conveyed to the coun- cil and that talks in Baghdad are con- tinuing. But, for example, British Foreil Secretary Robin Cook, who is visitit Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, said yestc day, "There are some interestingr posals there, although they d match up to our requirement of ft compliance ... If the U.N. inspecti regime is going to work, it must unconditional.
