As unemployment apps. n p rse, stock market dips Report: First-time applications for unemployment benefits up by 35,000 NEW YORK (AP) - Stocks dipped yesterday after a report found that more people applied for unemploymentbenefits last week. The Labor Department said first-time applications for unem- ploymentbenefits rose 35,000 from the week before to 445,000. It was the highest level since October and above what economists had pre- dicted. "It was a disappointingnumber," said Kim Caughey Forrest, an ana- lyst at Fort Pitt Capital. Merck & Co. fell 6.6 percent to $34.69 after announcing that clini- cal trials of its cardiovascular drug vorapaxar would be discontinued for some patients. Merck fell the most among the 30 stocks that make up the Dow Jones industrial average. Home Depot Inc., which gained 1.3 percent, led the index. The Dow fell 23 points, or 0.2 percent, to 11,731.9. The Standard and Poor's 500lost2,or0.2percent, to 1,283.76. The Nasdaq composite lost 2, or 0.1 percent, to 2,735.29. Losses were spread across the market. Seven of the 10 company groups that make up the S&P 500 fell. Materials companies had the largest move, falling0.8 percent. Whole Foods Market Inc. jumped 4.6 percent to $52.31 after an analyst said that the company's shares would continue to rise because its customers are willing to pay higher costs for food. The company is up nearly 80 percent over the last year. The Labor Department also reported yesterday that wholesale prices in December rose by the largest amount in nearly a year, as a result of higher energy and food costs. Most other prices rose only slightly, suggesting inflation isn't spreading through the economy. A decline in the dollar helped limit stock losses. The dollar lost1.1 percent against an index of six cur- rencies after successful bond auc- tions by Spain and Italy pushed the euro higher. The dollar's slide helps U.S. companies that rely on exports by making their prices more com- petitive overseas. After the market closed, Intel Corp. reported that its income rose 48 percent last quarter. That easily beat analyst estimates. Bond prices rose, pushing their yields lower. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell to 3.30 percent from 3.35 percent late Wednesday. That yield is used to set interest rates on many kinds of loans including mortgages. Four shares rose for every three that fell on the New York Stock Exchange. Consolidated volume came to 4.4 billion shares. 0 0 JACQUELYN MARTIN/AP Caroline Kennedy speaks yesterday about the launch of the JFK Digital Archive, as part of the 50th anniversary of the inaugura- tion of former -President John F. Kennedy, at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. JFK library opens $LOM online presidenti al archive Online archive is the first of its kind among presidential libraries WASHINGTON (AP) - Caroline Kennedy unveiled the nation's first online presidential archive yester- day, a $10 million project to digitize the most important papers, photo- graphs and recordings of President John F.Kennedy's days in office. Users can sort through the drafts of Kennedy's "Ask not what your country can do for you," speech and see how he tinkered with the words of that most famous line from his inauguration. Or they can listen to his personal phone calls and read his letters. In advance of the 50th anniver- sary of Kennedy's inauguration Jan. 20, Caroline Kennedy visited the National Archives, saying it reminded her the nation was built bn words and ideas - and that her father's call to service was more relevant than ever. "His time is becoming part of history, not living memory, and we need to reach across the gen- erations in new ways," Caroline Kennedy said, noting many young people are disillusioned with poli- tics. "He inspired a generation who inspired their children. They transformed America, and that's why 50 years later, his legacy still resonates." Kennedy himself broached the ideaofmakinghis records available to the masses in 1961. At a news conference, a reporter asked if he would consider putting his papers in Washington, rather than his hometown, to make them more accessible to scholars. "Through scientific means of reproduction ... and this will cer- tainly be increased as time goes on, we will find it possible to reproduce the key documents so that they will be commonly available," the presi- dent responded. After four years of work, the Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston has made that a reality. Archivists digitized over 200,000 pages, 1,200 recordings and 300 museum artifacts, as well as reels of film and hundreds of photo- graphs. Library Director Tom Putnam said they started with all of Kenne- dy's oval office files - everything that went across his desk - along with his personal papers, official White House photos, audio of all his public remarks, video of his famous speeches, and home movies. Archi- vists knew the most requested items in their research room in Boston and used them as a guide. Private partners - including AT&T, EMC Corp., Raytheon Co. and Iron Mountain Corp. - con- tributed $6.5 million in equipment and technical services to digitize thousands of records. Iron Moun- tain will store backup copies of all the digital files about 200 feet below ground at its facility in west- ern Pennsylvania. Original files will remain acces- sible at the Kennedy Library, Put- nam said. The digital records, though, will help preserve the orig- inals because they will be handled less frequently, he said. The library will continue digi- tizing about 100,000 pages a year, along with thousands of photos and recordings. At that rate, it would still take more than 100 years to digitize all records from the Ken- nedy administration. For students across the country, the online archive will mean access to primary documents for school research. They could examine Ken- nedy's correspondence with Mar- tin Luther King Jr. from the time they first met to the time King was jailed in Birmingham, Ala. Drafts of Kennedy's speeches show how he was writing and edit- ing along with speechwriter Theo- dore Sorensen, giving people a sense of the president's power as a writer, Putnam said. vory Coast: Mobs, security ally to attack U.N. vehicles 0 Violence comes after West African leader refuses to accept Nov. election loss ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast (AP) - Mobs and security forces allied to Ivory Coast leader Laurent Gbagbo attacked at least six U.N. vehicles yesterday, setting some ablaze and injuring two people in the latest round of violence sparked by this West African nation's disputed election. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon strongly condemned the attacks by loyalists of Gbagbo, who the U.N. says lost the Nov. 28 poll to longtime opposition leader Alassane Ouattara. Ban said the attacks by "regular and irregular forces" constituted crimes under international law, and warned that those respon- sible would be held accountable. Other officials with the global body sounded an alarm, warning they were being prevented from protect- ing civilians. Gbagbo has refused to accept the outcome of the November poll and has ordered the U.N.'s 9,000-strong peacekeeping mission to leave. The U.N. has refused, and its troopshave increasingly come under attack, including earlier this week when gunmen wounded three peacekeep- ers after their car crashed, said spokesman Kenneth Blackman. In the violence yesterday, Ban said one military vehicle belonging to the U.N. peacekeeping mission was burned, and a doctor and driver of an ambulance targeted in one attack were injured. An Associated Press reporter saw a U.N. vehicle smoldering, its U.N. insignia charred, as a crowd of men gathered around. Witnesses said the vehicle had been stopped by young men in the Riviera II neighborhood, near a university campus packed with Gbagbo sup- porters. Two international journal- ists that attempted to photograph the car when it was still in flames had their cameras confiscated by security forces. Also Thursday, a spokesman for the U.N. human rights office in Geneva, Rupert Colville, said the U.N. has been trying to investigate an alleged third mass grave in Issia in central Ivory Coast, but hasn't been able to confirm it. The U.N. has already been blocked from the site of two other alleged mass graves in the lush, cocoa-producing country. Colville wasn't immediately able to say whether the investigation into those two sites has progressed. 0
