INTERNATIONAL NEWS
AMERICANS HARDEN STANCE TOWARD IRAQ,
ARE CONFIDENT OF U.S. SUCCESS, POLL SAYS
Americans are hardening their line toward Iraq and are
increasingly optimistic about eventual U.S. success in the Persian
Gulf but believe that the conflict will be protracted, according
to a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll.
The survey, conducted Tuesday and Wednesday, found that 68
percent of the 800 persons polled believe the U.S. has the upper
hand in the conflict, an increase from a Journal/NBC poll 2 1/2
weeks earlier, when 52 percent said the U.S. held the upper hand.
In the earlier poll, those polled were almost evenly divided
over whether the U.S. will be able to obtain its objectives without
a shooting war. They now say by a margin of 52 percent to 36
percent that the U.S. will prevail without a war.
Some 84 percent of those surveyed say the U.S. should response
militarily if Iraq attacks Saudi Arabia, up from 74 percent in the
earlier poll; 56 percent up from 43 percent, support military
action if Iraq fails to withdraw from Kuwait. And 72 percent
believe the U.S. should take military action if hostages are
harmed
Overall, the poll found 76 percent support for the
deployment of troops to Saudi Arabia and 75 percent approval of
President Bush's handling of the crisis, small increases from the
earlier survey.

BUSH ACCEPTS IRAQI OFFER OF TV TIME;
ASKS TO BE GIVEN 15 UNEDITED MINUTES
TOPEKA -- President Bush Thursday quickly accepted an offer
to appear on Iraq's state-run television network and the White
House called on Iraqi President Saddam to provide up to 15 minutes
for an unedited message from Bush to the Iraqi people.
The White House was responding to an Iraqi offer to send a
film crew from Iraq's state-controlled media to "interview" Bush
and broadcast the message
The maneuvering over television messages came as Bush pledged
that Saddam's "brazen blackmail" in holding Americans hostage will
not alter his policies and the U.S. will not compromise on the
demand for an Iraqi troop withdrawal from Kuwait and for the
restoration of Kuwait's exiled government. "We seek a peaceful
solution," Bush told a Florida audience later Thursday, "but on one
point let me be clear: There can be no compromise when it comes to
sovereignty for Kuwait."
Iraq's withdrawal, he said, "must be complete. It must be
immediate and it must be unconditional." The President added that
Saddam's invasion of Kuwait was an act of "naked aggression" that
"strikes at the very heart of the international order.
Bush called the Iraqi offer a "real opportunity" as he flew
here from Washington for a fund-raising event in which he warned
that "hard choices remain" for the U.S. in the gulf. He appealed
for continuing American support.
An Administration official said the White House does not
believe that Iraq will broadcast a Bush message but that the White
House wanted to accept the offer with alacrity as part of what he
called the "media-war part of the war."

Bush Accepts Saddam's Bid To Appear On Iragi TV
TOPEKA -- President Bush agreed Thursday to appear on Iraqi
television by videotape to explain the embargo and other world
efforts to force Iraq out of Kuwait.
"It's a real opportunity," Mr. Bush said aboard Air Force One
when asked about press reports that the Iraqi government had
challenged him to tell his side of the Middle East crisis.
Mr. Bush will tape a speech of 10 to 15 minutes and send it
to Iraq's minister of information
Mr. Bush later offered a preview of his message in a scathing
attack on President Saddam, who he sid lies to his people about
world opinion.
"Saddam Hussein is trying to make it America against the
Arabs. It couldn't be more untrue. It's the rest of the world,
including most of the Arabs, against Saddam Hussein,' Mr. Bush said
at a fund raiser for Republican Gov. Mike Hayden
"America will not be intimidated," he said, vowing to do
"whatever it takes" to remove Iraq's forces from Kuwait.
(Frank Murray, Washington Times, A9)
Bush Says He'll Accept Offer To Tape TV Message To Iraqis
TOPEKA -- President Bush will accept Iraq's offer to tape a
message to be broadcast on that nation's state-run television, the
White House said Thursday.
"It's a real opportunity," Bush told reporters
In Washington, Iraqi Ambassador al-Mashat said that Iraqi
television would broadcast the President's message "in its entirety
without editing. Here you edit; in Iraq we do not edit."
Such a broadcast would bring Bush's message into Iraqi homes
for the first time -- a sharp contrast to the domination of the
local airwaves by President Saddam.
(Susan Feeney, Dallas Morning News)
President Appealing Directly To Iraqi People To End Crisis
President Bush is appealing directly to the Iraqi people for
support to end the Persian Gulf crisis as he renews a blistering
attack on their president and prepares for a weekend superpower
summit.
"We Americans should make something very clear -- our argument
is not with the people of Iraq," Bush told a Republican rally in
Tallahassee on Thursday night. "Rather it is with Iraq's dictator
who uses innocent travelers as shields, who now, in direct
contravention of international law, holds hostage civilians from
many countries."
He said President Saddam "must know that our policy will not
be altered by this brazen blackmail" and that the U.S. will
maintain its military buildup in the region and enforcement of the
international economic sanctions against Iraq.
However, Bush told reporters traveling with him on a one-day
political trip that he was glad for Saddam's offer of airtime to
televise a message to the Iraqi people.

BUSH PRAISES HAYDEN, DENOUNCES IRAQI ACTIONS
TOPEKA -- President Bush blended strong praise for Gov. Mike
Hayden with firm resolve to punish Iraqi aggression in the Persian
Gulf during a fund-raising luncheon here Thursday.
Bush also told an audience of 750 people gathered in the
Landon Arena of Topeka's Kansas Expocentre the time has come to
deal with the federal deficit, and improving relations with the
Soviet Union has helped keep the Middle Eastern crisis contained.
During his 23-minute address, the President also complimented
members of the 190th Air Refueling Group of the Kansas Air National
Guard, which has 500 members on voluntary active duty to support
the U.S. buildup in the Persian Gulf.
Hayden pointed out that Bush is the first sitting president
in modern times to come to Kansas to campaign for a candidate. And
the Gov. said the President's agreement to address a $500-a-plate
luncheon would help unify the Kansas Republican Party behind him
as well as raise campaign cash.
Bush noted the late president Eisenhower had said, "Our best
protection against bigger government in Washington is better
government in the states."
"And today we meet to help Mike keep making government better
in the state of Kansas. Abroad, let us raise the flag of peace and
justice. And at home, let's show that Kansas does like Mike."
(Roger Myers, Topeka Capital-Journal, A1)
Bush Says Iraq Sanctions 'Beginning To Bite'
TALLAHASSEE -- One the eve of his departure for meeting with
Mikhail Gorbachev, President Bush on Thursday called for increased
international pressure on Iraq as well as strengthened American
resolve.
"Nothing strikes with greater force at the heart of
international order than the act of naked aggression perpetuated
by Saddam Hussein or Iraq," Bush said, adding that economic
sanctions "are beginning to bite.
The Bush comment, opening the fall campaign season, at a rally
for Northern Florida Republican Congressman Bill Grant, also called
for a quick resolution of the budget impasse with Democrats.
Bush said he'll tell the Soviet leader in Helsinki, "The world
is united against this [Iraq] aggression, and I'm glad the Soviet
Union is on our side."
He went on, "Let me be very clear: We seek a peaceful
solution to this crisis. But let me also be clear on another
point: There can be no compromise when it comes to sovereignty for
Kuwait and the removal of all Iraqi forces."
"And that removal must be complete. It must be immediate,
and it must be unconditional. "
He got one of his biggest cheers from the crowd of 2,000 when
he departed from his script to deplore the continued holding of
hostages and added, "I will not change the policy of the United
States in standing up against acts of aggression and refusing to
submit to this international blackmail."

On The Campaign Trail, Bush Invokes Gulf Crisis
TALLAHASSEE -- Evoking homespun images from Dwight D.
Eisenhower to the Wizard of Oz, President Bush brought the Persian
Gulf crisis to the campaign trail Thursday. He defended sending
troops to Saudi Arabia as a mission to "raise the flag of peace and
justice" and appealed for public support as he makes what he called
"hard choices" in the Middle East.
"Our cause may not be easy, but it will always be right, " Mr.
Bush said in Topeka at a campaign rally for Gov. Mike Hayden of
Kansas, at the first of two stops on a 2,630-mile swing to the
Middle West and South.
Later, in Tallahassee, he called the gulf crisis a challenge
to the fundamental international order and said his resolve would
not be swayed by what he called Iraq's "brazen blackmail" of using
Americans and other foreigners as hostages.
"Every use of force unchecked is an invitation to further
aggression," Mr. Bush said in Tallahassee, at a barbecue fund
raiser for Rep. Bill Grant, Republican of Florida. "Every act of
aggression unpunished strikes a blow against the rule of law -- and
strengthens the forces of chaos and lawlessness that, ultimately,
threaten us all."
Mr. Bush's appearances in Topeka and Tallahassee set a
patriotic tone that Mr. Bush and Republican strategists apparently
want to strike in discussing the Persian Gulf crisis in the fall
election season. Republicans are hoping that the American military
deployment in Saudi Arabia will bolster their efforts to project
the party as the safeguard of a strong defense and a strong
economy.
(Andrew Rosenthal, New York Times, A8)
BUSH HEADING FOR FINLAND TO MEET GORBACHEV
President Bush leaves for Helsinki Friday night for a weekend
summit with President Gorbachev designed to dramatize superpower
solidarity in dealing with the explosive Persian Gulf crisis.
One the eve of his trip to the Finnish capital, Bush said that
at their meeting Sunday he and Gorbachev would talk about a wide
range of issues "including the situation in the gulf -- and the
world's response to Iraq's aggression" against Kuwait.
Alluding to U.N. efforts to choke off trade with Iraq, the
President said in a Florida political speech Thursday: "Never
before have we seen this kind of cooperation between nations --
proof that the world community will not stand aside and watch one
nation swallow up another.
"The world is united against this aggression and I'm glad the
Soviet Union is on our side in this, he said
Bush seemed to preview his message [to the Iraqis] during his
appearance in Florida -- the second stop on a day-long campaign
swing that took him to Kansas earlier in the day.
He was campaigning for state and congressional Republican
candidates in the Nov. 2 U.S. elections.
"Our argument is not with the people of Iraq. Rather, it is
with Iraq's dictator, who uses innocent travellers as shields, " the
U.S. leader said.

Friday, September 7, 1990 -- A-5
Summit Goal: Aid Gorbachev
President Bush's call for the superpower summit in Helsinki
to discuss the gulf crisis was driven in part by the
Administration's strategy of bolstering President Gorbachev's
beleaguered government, according to senior Administration
officials.
But despite the Administration's sympathy for Soviet calls for
Western aid, officials said they fear the one-day summit snag on
Mr. Gorbachev's push to expand the meeting into full-fledged Middle
East peace talks.
While many Bush aides have characterized the summit as a move
to show world unity against Iraq's occupation of Kuwait, a top
official said Thursday that it was called "mostly to show support
for Gorbachev."
The White House this week expressed concern with pictures of
empty bread shelves in the Soviet Union and said it now stands
ready to deliver economic aid once Moscow approves free-emigration
laws
Mr. Bush, campaigning in Kansas and Florida Thursday, said his
summit meeting with Mr. Gorbachev could lead to greater cooperation
on economic matters as well as arms control.
Mr. Bush told an audience in Topeka that "the better we
understand each other, the closer I believe that we can work
The Persian Gulf shows what this cooperation can achieve."
Administration officials said Mr. Bush would use Moscow's
support for U.S. policies in the Persian Gulf as the reason
Washington would now consider aiding the Soviet government.
(Paul Bedard, Washington Times, A1)
Gorbachev At Summit Likely To Offer New Measures Against Iraq
MOSCOW -- With the Persian Gulf crisis posing a threat to his
domestic reforms, President Gorbachev is likely to urge President
Bush to avoid hasty action against Iraq when they meeting Sunday.
But, Soviet analysts say, he could offer to help Washington
in stepping up world pressure on Baghdad to pull its troops out of
Kuwait and signal readiness to take part in an international force
in the region.
After apparently fruitless talks with Foreign Minister Aziz
Wednesday, Gorbachev will clearly be bearing no message of optimism
to his Helsinki meeting with Bush.
However, he will certainly aim to use the impromptu summit as
a new demonstration of commitment to working with the U.S. on the
world stage to contain and solve regional crises that would once
have set the superpowers at odds.
"I have no doubt that he will continue to argue for diplomatic
efforts to achieve a political solution, and for military restraint
at the present stage, said Igor Belyayev, a prominent Moscow
Middle East specialist.
"But given Iraq's intransigence, he may well tell Bush he is
ready to accept passing on from words to some sort of action to
increase pressure on Baghdad, as long as it comes under the flag
of the United Nations."
Leonid Koryavin, a commentator for the government newspaper
Izvestia, said the summit could lay the groundwork for a common
approach by Moscow and Washington to achieving an overall
settlement in the Middle East. (Robert Evans, analysis, Reuter)

BAGHDAD -- Washington is bargaining with Baghdad for special
charter jets to fly from Kuwait about 1,300 U.S. women and
children, many of whom have been in hiding for a month.
Under the deal, Iraqi Airways flights hopscotching from Kuwait
to Baghdad to a third Middle East country could start as early as
Saturday, Western diplomats said Thursday.
But they will require complicated logistics -- including
beaming instructions over VOA and BBC radio stations -- to persuade
the women to leave their husbands and bring themselves and their
children out of hiding.
"A lot of these people have gone underground and will need to
be assured before they're going to come out," a diplomat said.
At the same time, the women and children will have to manage
for the most part on their own for the first leg of their journeys,
relying on the aid of diplomats other than Americans in Kuwait, the
sources said. Their U.S. representatives are under siege at the
troop-ringed U.S. Embassy there, and Baghdad has banned U.S.
diplomats based in its capital from Kuwait as long as the standoff
continues.

SAUDIS AGREE TO PAY BILLIONS FOR DEFENSE
More Egyptian, Syrian Troops Accepted
JIDDAH, Saudi Arabia -- Saudi Arabia gave the U.S. an explicit
commitment Thursday night to devote billions of dollars in windfall
oil revenues to underwrite the cost of the American military
deployment here and to ease the economic woes of other Arab nations
joining the international embargo against Iraq, Saudi and Bush
Administration officials said.
In an hour-long meeting with Secretary Baker at the royal
family's sprawling Salaam Palace here, King Fahd said his nation
would make contributions, either in cash or fuel and other
necessities, toward the cost of supporting the largest American
military deployment in a generation, the officials reported. He
pledged additional sums toward aiding the front-line states of
Egypt, Turkey and Jordan who have joined the drive to isolate Iraq
for its invasion of Kuwait, they said.
In a related development, officials said Washington and Saudi
Arabia said the Saudis have agreed to receive about 50,000 more
Egyptian and Syrian troops to join U.S. and other multinational
forces defending the desert kingdom form attack by Iraq.
Though final details and arrival dates have not been set, the
agreements would allow fulfillment of the first large pledges to
send Arab forces to defend Saudi Arabia, the officials said.

$11.3 BILLION COST ESTIMATED IN 1991 FOR GULF OPERATION
New Defense Department estimates circulated in Congress this
week suggest that the bill for Operation Desert Shield in fiscal
1991 will total $11.3 billion, an amount that would more than wipe
out all the various proposed defense cuts now on the legislative
table unless U.S. allies pick up some of the tab.
"The cost of the gulf operation is going to be a real sleeper
in all this," said one congressional source, who noted that the
latest "preliminary" estimates assume that there will be no
shooting war.
The estimates were sent to committees involved in preparing
the congressional position for budget summit talks with the White
House this weekend. However, sources on several key defensive
committees said the panels have not received details necessary to
evaluate whether Pentagon numbers include expenditures that might
have been made even without the Persian Gulf crisis.
Even with allied contributions to the U.S. effort in the gulf,
Administration officials made clear Thursday that they want to use
the crisis to try to roll back some of the cuts contained in
defense bills now moving through Congress.
A senior Administration official traveling with President Bush
said Thursday that Democrats "can't sustain those deep cuts in
defense when our young men and women are defending America in the
sands of Saudi Arabia."
If they continued to press for them, the official said, "We'll
embarrass them politically, I can assure you. They just can't
sustain the political pressure we'd put on, and they know that.'
However, Speaker Foley said the operations in the gulf should
be treated as an "emergency condition [rather] than regular planing
for the future
This isn't something we are ready to assume as
a permanent condition of American commitment."
(Dan Morgan, Washington Post, A25)
IN '87, U.S. BORE BRUNT OF REFLAGGING
The U.S. bore the heaviest financial burden in providing naval
protection for ships in the Persian Gulf in 1987-88, while some
nations most dependent on gulf oil contributed little to the
effort, according to a GAO reported released Thursday.
A similar pattern appears to be developing in the current gulf
crisis, with the U.S. paying most of the military cost for
Operation Desert Shield. With strong encouragement from Congress,
the Bush Administration has urged U.S. allies to play a larger role
in confronting Iraq's aggression toward Kuwait.
"The nations that pulled their weight [in Earnest will] are
the ones doing their part today. Those that shirked the burden
during Operation Earnest Will are the same ones balking today,"
said Rep. Schroeder, who requested the study as chairman of the
House Armed Services subcommittee on military installations and
facilities.

LAWMAKERS SEEK MORE INTERNATIONAL HELP IN SAUDI ARABIA
IN THE NORTHWEST SAUDI DESERT -- Members of a congressional
delegation visiting U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia called Thursday on
American allies to boost their commitments to the multinational
defense effort.
"I'm dissatisfied with the lack of burden-sharing generally
so far, Rep. Aucoin said during a visit with the 82nd Airborne
Division's 1st Brigade in the Saudi desert.
"My constituents are looking or good-faith efforts on the pat
of our allies.'
Sounding a similar call was Rep. Hefner, who said he expected
more European allies to support the Saudi defense effort because
they "depend far more on energy supplies from this area than we
do." The congressmen, who on Friday were to continue their visit
with a planned meeting with Saudi King Fahd, said they came away
from a briefing with the top American commander here convinced a
formidable deterrent force was in place.
But the leader of the delegation said it was no time to let
down the guard. "Anytime you have a potential enemy as fanatical
as Hussein is, you have to believe there could be a war," said Rep.
Murtha. "But if he has any professional ability at all, he will
see that he will pay a high price."

CHENEY: 100,000 NOT ENOUGH
The buildup of U.S. military forces in the Persian Gulf region
has reached 100,000 men and women, but it is "too soon as yet" to
halt the flow of troops and weaponry, Secretary Cheney said
Thursday.
The month-long deployment "has been an enormously successful
one," he told members of the Institute for International Strategic
Studies.
Cheney's statement was his first public enumeration of the
size of the U.S. deployment
Queried by a member of the audience whether enough U.S. force
was in the region that deployment could be halted, Cheney replied,
"It is too soon as yet to do that."
"The worst sin of all is to deploy enough to get into
trouble, but not enough troops to guarantee their safety and to
complete their mission, Cheney said.

U.S. CONTENT TO LET SMALL NUMBER OF PLANES EVADE IRAQI BLOCKADE
The blockade of Iraq has been broken by airplanes carrying
food, but U.S. officials are not seriously considering stopping
them because an air blockade would be too difficult and so little
is getting through.
Blockades have been broken from the air before -- most notably
in 1948, when the U.S. flew food and other supplies into West
Berlin to circumvent a Soviet blockade. The effort was so
successful that the blockade crumbled
Although officials have not provided precise numbers, they say
only a few planes have been landing in Iraq, mainly from Libya,
since the U.N. Security Council embargo went into effect last
month
Pentagon spokesman Williams has characterized the leak through
the air as "a trickle."

CONFIDENT IRAQIS SET FOR A LONG HAUL
Iraq's huge military force occupying Kuwait is well-supplied
and shows good morale, Bush Administration officials said Thursday,
countering press reports from the Middle East that critical
supplies were not getting through from Baghdad.
One senior official with direct intelligence reports from the
Persian Gulf region said Iraqi leader Saddam has managed to keep
his 265, 000-man force in and around Kuwait well-fed and supplied.
The official said the troops appear to be digging in for a long
stay after the Aug. 2 blitzkrieg.
"I don't see any evidence in a broad sense that the forces he
used to invade Kuwait are unhappy or disaffected," said the
official, who requested anonymity.
A U.S. intelligence official agreed, noting that "they're not
being shot at, they're not on the front with Iran, they're at
relative peace and they're in Kuwait.'
Other officials said Mr. Hussein has built a resilient
economic and political system that will not crumble in the near
future under the pressure of an almost leakproof economic embargo.

U.S., ALLIES COULD BREAK IRAQ AIR FORCE IN HOURS, OFFICER SAYS
WITH THE U.S. FORCES IN SAUDI ARABIA -- U.S., Saudi and allied
forces could knock out Iraq's radar in less than five minutes and
destroy its air force within 36 hours, sa senior U.S. officer said
Thursday.
Maj. Gen. Royal Moore, commander of the Third Marine Aircraft
Wing and head of its air combat forces in Saudi Arabia, told
reporters that allied forces in the Persian Gulf would soon have
enough ground combat power to push Iraq out of Kuwait if Saudi
Arabia and other Arab states wanted them to do so
Moore said casualties would be light because U.S. Harm and
Shrike air-to-ground missiles would be able to take out Iraqi
weapons systems and radar.

BRITISH GULF ROLE WINS BROAD BACKING
Thatcher Government May Deploy More Units with Defense Force
LONDON -- Britain's Parliament, meeting in emergency session
for the first time since the Falklands War eight years ago, voiced
overwhelming support Thursday for the Western military deployment
in the Persian Gulf, but there were also strong warnings that a
shooting war could break the consensus here and abroad.
Prime Minister Thatcher announced that Britain is considering
sending additional forces to the gulf, and there were published
reports Thursday night that these might include 2,000 ground troops
to supplement the three British aircraft squadrons and half-dozen
war-ships already there or en route. She also announced allocation
of $3.8 million in additional relief funds for refugees in
countries bordering Iraq, bring to $10.3 million Britain's total
commitment of humanitarian aid.
Thatcher and Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock appeared in total
agreement on the steps taken under U.N. Security Council
endorsement to isolate Iraq and force it to retreat from its month-
long occupation of Kuwait. But Thatcher insisted that the U.S. and
Britain could justifiably launch a military strike against Iraq
without needing to return to the Security Council for approval.

MITTERRAND, FRENCH AWAIT U.N. ACTION
PARIS -- President Mitterrand pledged Thursday he would not
negotiate with Baghdad for the release of "the victims of an act
of barbarism" but cautioned France equally would not join the U.S.
in an attack on Iraq without a U.N. mandate.
Speaking at a news conference broadcast live on four
television channels, the Socialist leader stressed he hoped
President Bush and Mikhail Gorbachev would promise to confine the
prospect of military action against Iraq to the U.N. framework when
they meet at Helsinki for a summit next weekend.
Mitterrand repeated his view first stated last month that "the
logic of war" continues to prevail even if "we are doing all we can
to get out of it while respecting the rule of law." Only an
"implacable" execution of the U.N. embargo against Iraq offered a
hope for peaceful solution of the stand-off, he said.

TAX CUT ON OIL COMPANIES
The Republicans may propose a tax cut on big oil companies as
an incentive to boost production. The Democrats may propose a tax
hike on oil or gasoline to encourage conservation.
Though united on their goals but far apart on how to reach
them, congressional negotiators resume the painful and prolonged
annual ritual of creating a national budget Friday by traveling to
Andrews AFB for a weekend of intensive meetings at the officer's
club
A conciliatory-sounding President Bush is to preside at the
opening session before flying off to another summit -- in Helsinki
with President Gorbachev, with the Persian Gulf as the meat of the
agenda.
"The time for partisanship is past, the President, reversing
partisan comments he made last month, declared Thursday at a
Republican fund raiser in Topeka. "I pledge to work with the
leaders in Congress on both sides of the aisle to get an
agreement
II
Despite the soaring price of oil resulting from the
confrontation in the gulf, there is still talk among the Democrats
about recommending some sort of gasoline or oil tax increase. And
because of those soaring prices, Sen. Dole suggested Thursday that
the negotiators might consider a tax break for the big oil
companies on the condition that they produce more oil.

FDIC SAYS REAL ESTATE SLUMP IN AREA,

Deepening real estate problems in the District of Columbia,

troubles are now spreading down the Atlantic Coast.
Banks' real estate loan troubles grew faster in Maryland and
the District than anywhere else in the country, the FDIC said. The
total dollar value of real estate loans that are not being paid on
time in the two jurisdictions doubled in just three months
FDIC Chairman Seidman said it is too soon to tell whether the
growing real estate loan problems and slumping profits will lead

SAVING OWL MAY COST 20,000 JOBS
White House Said To Accept Proposals BY Scientific Panel
Senior Bush Administration officials have reluctantly
concluded that saving the Pacific Northwest's rare northern spotted
owl from extinction will require the sacrifice of up to 20,000
timber industry jobs, informed sources said Thursday.
An Administration task force charged in June with striking a
"balance" between owls and loggers has tentatively embraced the
main recommendations of a scientific panel that called for
preserving large chunks of the ancient, "old-growth" forests where
the owls live, sources said.
The decision to follow the panel's basic strategy, albeit with
modifications aimed at cushioning job losses, reflects a
recognition on the part of Administration officials that to do
anything less would jeopardize the survival of the bird, violate
the federal Endangered Species Act and cause unacceptable political
fallout, sources said.
"What has happened is that people have gotten education about
this," said a senior Administration official.
The Administration's owl strategy, which is not yet final and
could be rejected by President Bush, has become a key test of
Bush's approach to solving environmental problems
The evolving owl-protection plan appears to represent a
retreat from the Administration's position earlier this summer,
when officials indicated that they were not prepared to accept
large job losses and suggested that Congress consider revising the
Endangered Species Act.

GULF POLICY/POLL
NBC's Jane Pauley: As President Bush politics in Kansas and
Florida, the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll shows
American support for his Gulf policy is growing.
(President Bush: "And our cause may not be easy, but it will
always be right.")
* NBC News Theme
*
Pauley: It is clear tonight that American support of the
President's policies in the Persian Gulf remains strong. The NBC
News/Wall Street Journal Poll, conducted earlier this week, shows
75 percent of Americans approve of what the President is doing in
the Middle East. Only 18 percent disapprove.
POLL
President's Gulf Policy:
Approval rating:
75% now; 72% in August
Disapproval rating: 18% now; 16% in August
Not sure:
7% now; 12 % in August.
(plus or minus 4% error)
Pauley: This is more favorable than in the early days of the
crisis last month. Even though the President's summit meeting with
Mikhail Gorbachev is less than 72 hours away, he spent most of this
day campaigning for fellow Republicans. NBC's John Cochran joins
us now from one of those political stops, Tallahassee, Fla.
Cochran: For a President who hopes to make a big difference in
this fall's congressional campaign, this new poll is a good
political omen.
(TV Coverage: President Bush waving to crowd from Air Force One,
crowd applauding.)
What the President saw with his own eyes was also a good sign.
Welcoming crowds, instead of protesters demanding that he bring
troops home from the desert. True, he was campaigning in the
conservative heartland, but the NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll
shows that in the past month the number of Americans who approve
of sending U.S. forces to Saudi Arabia and the Gulf is up from 70
percent to 76 percent. Twenty percent now disapprove.
(TV Coverage: President Bush at podium of Mike Hayden fundraiser;
crowd giving standing ovation.)
With solid backing like that, Bush changed political tactics today.
No more hard-hitting attacks on the Democrats. Instead, Bush chose
to look more Presidential, less partisan. Calling for a quick
budget agreement, Bush did not'even mention the Democrats by name.

Cochran continues: Bush may be getting high ratings as Commander-
in-Chief, but his aides wonder for how long. The new poll shows
that in the Mideast conflict, 66% believe the worst is yet to come.
Only 25% think the worst is over for Americans. To pay for the
crisis, 38% think the budget deficit should be increased. Twenty-
seven percent want to cut domestic spending. Eighteen percent
would raise taxes temporarily. And 12%, without even being asked
about other countries, said others should help. George Bush
emphasized they are helping.
(President Bush: "We're doing this with the cooperation of the
United Nations, 22 countries involved in the Persian Gulf effort -
- twenty-two!")
But Japan's promise of medical and transportation help has so far
been more talk than action. West Germany says it may help
transport American troops, but doesn't want to help pay the
billions that the U.S. military effort will cost. Late today, the
Saudi royal family said it will pay most of the cost. And if the
check actually arrives, President Bush may continue to get strong
support from American voters. President Bush will also try to win
over public support in Iraq. Bush has accepted an offer from
Saddam Hussein to send a videotaped message to the Iraqi people.
The Iraqis say they will broadcast the message uncut, uncensored.
Pauley: There were more interesting findings from our poll. We
asked 800 people, registered voters from coast to coast, why they
think American troops have been sent to the Gulf. Fully half say
it's to protect the world's oil supply. Thirty-nine percent say
to force Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait. And nine percent say it is
to overthrow Saddam Hussein.
(NBC-Lead)
CBS's Bob Schieffer: President Bush spent most of the day
politicking. Campaigning for Republican candidates in Kansas and
Florida, the President took to the hustings as both Republicans and
Democrats are trying to gauge the impact of the Persian Gulf crisis
on the fall elections.
CBS's Wyatt Andrews: While George Bush as President hopes this
crisis unites all Americans, today he began to exploit it to help
Republicans -- starting with Governor Mike Hayden in Kansas.
(TV Coverage: President Bush stepping up to podium, receiving
Kansas cutout.)
(President Bush: "Abroad, let us raise the flag of peace and
justice, and at home, let's show that Kansas does like Mike.")
Six weeks ago, Democrats saw the Republican Party as vulnerable -
- abortion, the savings and loan scandal, and a sour economy were
set to dominate debate. Today, though, Commander-in-Chief Bush is
ten points up in the polls, and Neil Bush is no longer front-page
news.
(Linda Divall, Republican pollster: "We haven't heard too much
about the abortion issue lately. You haven't heard too much about
S&Ls. But what you have heard is the need for strong military
defense.")
And what voters are seeing is the creative injection of Gulf issues
into politics. In Illinois, Republican challenger Lynn Martin has
pounced on Sen. Simon's call to cut defense spending.
-
White House News Summary
Friday, September 7, 1990 -- B-3
Andrews' report continues:
(Martin: "Thus far, the only thing we've been able to hear from
him is that he would cut Stealth and SDI. And I wish to remind the
people of Illinois that the Stealth technology is in use in Iraq.
While the Simon campaign calls that tactic desperate, Democratic
challengers for office have been no less innovative. Kentucky's
hot new issue is gasoline price-gouging. Democrat Harvey Sloane
has forced incumbent Sen. McConnell of the Energy Committee to
defend against the charge he owes too much to big oil.
(Sen. McConnell, in campaign commercial: "We need to fight back.")
Some experts say any crisis helps the incumbent, regardless of
party, especially if incumbents can share the glory of success.
But the risk is that the crisis can backfire.
(Paul Maslin, Democratic pollster: "Two months from now, if our
troops are still stuck in the desert, we have a stalemate in the
Persian Gulf, some hostages still haven't been released, and we are
knee-deep in a recession, at that point I don't think Republican
candidates are going to be all that happy.")
As much as anything, the Gulf crisis will now freeze American
politics in place while voters wait to see how it plays it. Still,
those Democrats who hoped this September would dawn with
Republicans on the defensive will have trouble unwrapping
Republicans from the flag.

willing to broadcast an interview with President Bush nationwide.
(Naji al-Hadithi, Iraqi Information Minister: "We have no
conditions. Since he is asking for a chance to address the Iraqi
public opinion in exchange for the chance given to our president
on American TV, we are ready to do so.")
Some Western diplomats in Baghdad say that a Bush broadcast could
be interpreted in Iraq as a slight softening in the American
position that there will be no discussion or dialogue with the
Iraqis until they withdraw from Kuwait. Meanwhile, the Canadian
Embassy in Baghdad succeeded in organizing the first government
charter flight from Kuwait. American citizens trapped in Kuwait
are being advised to stand by for what diplomats call an air bridge
to get them out to safety. But with so many Americans in hiding,
the evacuation plan poses tremendous risks. One is that if too
many women and children show up at the airport for the first
evacuation flight, anyone without a seat on the plane may be
stranded there, known to Iraqi troops and unable to return to their
hiding places.

White House News Summary
Friday, September 7, 1990 -- B-4
U.S. TROOPS/POLL
Pauley: There are now 100,000 American troops in the Gulf region,
In our poll, we asked people how long they expect the U.S. military
to remain there. Nineteen percent say they expect them to be there
six months or less. Twenty-five percent say between six months and
one year. Thirty-nine percent say one year or longer. Some say
much longer.
NBC's Arthur Kent reports that on Saudi Arabia's border with
Kuwait, American Marine reconnaissance officers suspect that Iraqi
spies posing as refugees from Kuwait are active here.
(NBC-3)
GULF CRISIS RESOLUTION/POLL
Pauley: In our poll, we found that people back home are optimistic
about how this Persian Gulf crisis will end. More than half say
the U.S. will win, achieving its objectives, without firing a shot.
That's up sharply from the 40% who believed that last month. But
36% still say they think there will be a shooting war in the
desert.
POLL
U.S. will probably win with no war:
52% now; 40% in August.
Probably be a shooting war:
36% now; 42% in August.
(NBC-4)
AMERICAN SHOT
Jennings: We begin tonight with one of those incidents in Iraqi-
occupied Kuwait which, while it turned out to be not as bad as it
could have been, makes it very clear that Americans hiding from the
Iraqis there are truly in danger. An American man was shot as he
tried to evade the Iraqis' dragnet. The Iraqis say it was a
mistake. The State Department says it was outrageous. The man was
not seriously hurt; but as far as we know, it is the first such
incident involving an American civilian.
ABC's David Ensor: The Iraqi Ambassador was called to the State
Department to explain the shooting. The U.S. says the American was
hanging out of a window, trying to avoid being rounded up by Iraqi
soldiers, and was shot in the forearm.
(Mark Dillen, State Dept. spokesman: "This is outrageous behavior.
As we've said all along, we hold the Iraqi government responsible
for the health and welfare of all American citizens.")
Ambassador al-Mashat called the shooting an unfortunate incident,
but said the Iraqi troops were within their rights to fire.
(Ambassador al-Mashat: "The whole incident is just accidental,
because he violated the curfew. And he was not picked up as an
American. This is, I want you to underline this.")
The U.S. says using live ammunition is unacceptable, and wants the
wounded man to be allowed to leave, along with other hostages with
medical problems. U.S. officials say Undersecretary of State
Kimmitt also demanded the Iraqis return the body of an American,
James Worthington, who died of a heart attack while in Iraqi
detention.

White House News Summary
Friday, September 7, 1990 -- B-5
Jennings continues: Kimmitt told the Iraqi ambassador that
incidents like the shooting and the heart attack will continue
until all foreigners are free to leave. His warning came as U.S.
officials said they have more reports of foreign men being rounded
up in Kuwait.
Jennings: It is the U.S. government's estimate that there are more
than 2,000 Americans still hiding from the Iraqis in Kuwait. Today
we talked on a very poor phone connection with an American named
Bob in Kuwait City, who said that 25 other Americans had just been
picked up by the Iraqis.
(Bob: "The Americans were taken from two apartment complexes.
They were taken to the Regency Hotel today. The doors were broken
into and soldiers entered their apartments, as we understand."
Jennings: Tell me what you think your own prospects might be in
the next several days. Bob: "Our morale is near zero. We still
wait for the knock on the door. We're keeping a very low profile."
Jennings: Have the Iraqis been around your building? Bob: "We
are totally surrounded. We cannot move. Jennings: Do you think
they know you're in there? Bob: "We think that we're already
hostages.")
We also talked on the phone with a young Kuwaiti, who, like many,
many Kuwaitis, was educated in the U.S. What was life like for
Kuwaitis now?
Kuwaiti: "It's like, from a scale of ten, we've dropped all the
way to zero. And we've never been prepared for that
And the
last week it's been hell, and it's getting worse. A lot of bodies
are found in hospitals, being executed with a bullet in the back
of the head." Jennings: Tell us about the resistance to the Iraqi
occupation. Kuwaiti: "It's mainly small arms
And it's mainly
snipers And people are getting panicky. You can't go on like
this. About half of the city is empty."
Jennings: We cannot, he said, resist the Iraqis much longer. The
Iraqi government said today that any foreigner caught trying to
leave the country without an exit permit could be sentenced to life
in prison; for moving to a new location without telling the Iraqi
authorities, up to three years. Some people in Iraq are getting
the necessary papers. But only some.
(ABC-Lead, CBS-2)
HOSTAGES
ABC's Morton Dean reports that the exodus of Westerners from Kuwait
is proceeding at a breathless pace now. Once in Iraq, though, the
bureaucratic process to get them home can be agonizingly slow. In
Kuwait, the Voice of America spread the news that some Americans
would soon begin the trip home.
(Voice of America broadcast: "Iraqi authorities have said that
only women and children will be permitted to leave, but we are
continuing to urge that all American citizens be permitted to leave
Kuwait and Iraq.")
Beginning Friday, Iraqi Airways planes, chartered by the U.S.
government, are expected to begin an airlift which will eventually
bring an estimated 1,300 American women and children from Kuwait
to Baghdad. The big story on Iraqi TV tonight was not the movement
of hostages or the shooting of an American -- it was the visit of
Jordan's King Hussein.
(TV Coverage: President Saddam, King Hussein kissing, shaking
hands.)

White House News Summary
Friday, September 7, 1990 -- B-6
Pauley reports that the State Department announced an agreement
with Iraq to begin evacuating Americans with a chartered Iraqi
jetliner Friday. In Kuwait City today, an American man was shot
in the hand by Iraqi troops as he tried to escape a roundup of
foreigners. After some confusion and tension, Iraq called it an
accident.
NBC's Mike Boettcher reports that Iraq moved quickly to defuse the
situation. Iraq's Ministry of Information hastily summoned
reporters to a news conference to report that the American was
alive and in good condition. As a further departure from the tough
rhetoric of war, Saddam Hussein donned a business suit for a
meeting with Jordan's King Hussein. Iraqi television played
soothing music while it broadcast pictures of the event.
(TV Coverage: President Saddam, King Hussein kissing, shaking
hands.)
And in Baghdad, there are signs the economic situation is worsening
because of the international embargo.
(NBC-2)
Jennings: A number of countries today have said they want to send
food and other humanitarian supplies to the Iraqis. The Indians
say today they will ask the U.N. for permission to send food a
medicine to Iraq to be used specifically for the Indians who are
still stranded in Kuwait. The Indian government is making eight
flights a day to get is citizens out of Kuwait and Iraq, but there
are still 100,000 Indians stranded there.
(ABC-3)
BURDEN-SHARING
Jennings reports that the Secretary of State and the Secretary of
the Treasury are on the road today to get the financial support of
other nations for the effort to isolate Iraq. The Secretary of
State is in Saudi Arabia. The Saudis, he said today, have been
very forthcoming in the view that they should contribute
substantially to their own defense.
ABC's John McWethy reports that by one estimate, Secretary Baker
is looking for a total of at least one billion dollars a month.
(TV Coverage: Secretary Baker arriving in Saudi Arabia, shaking
hands, speaking with Saudis.)
Baker comes to Saudi Arabia first because this is where he will be
asking for the biggest contribution. Though the Saudis are already
paying for all of the fuel American forces are using, by some
accounts the U.S. wants Saudi Arabia to kick in the equivalent of
$500 million a month more for as long as U.S. forces stay. The
Saudis have made a vast windfall profit from the recent oil price
increases, and American officials say just a fraction of that new
revenue could easily cover what Baker is asking for. Baker's
mission also includes a search for money to help the poorer
nations, such as Egypt, Turkey and Jordan, which have been badly
hurt by the economic embargo against Iraq. For that account, Baker
is said to be asking for another four to five billion dollars from
the Saudis. Friday, Baker visits with the two other major targets
in his search for money: the government of Kuwait, in exile in
Saudi Arabia, and the U.A.E.
(ABC-4)

White House News Summary
Friday, September 7, 1990 -- B-7
Jennings reports that among the countries outside the Gulf most
able to share the burden, there is both approval of U.S.
leadership, as well as some concern about the costs and the length
of time involved. The most committed ally so far is Great Britain:
2,000 troops, three Air Force squadrons, and four warships. Prime
Minister Thatcher said today she will send more.
(Thatcher, speaking to British Parliament: "The nub of the debate
is to secure the withdrawal of Iraq from Kuwait. Mr. Speaker, such
a man must be stopped, and we shall persevere until he is.
The largest European contingent represented in the military task
force is French. But politically, the French are concerned about
the future. President Mitterrand said today that France would not
automatically support an American attack against Iraq. The
Germans, constitutionally forbidden from sending troops, are
sending humanitarian aid to the refugees in Jordan, and they say
they will do more. And then there is Japan.
ABC's Mark Litke reports that Japan is beginning to react to
international opinion that as one of the world's richest nations,
and heavily dependent on Middle Eastern oil, it must shoulder a
greater share of the burden in the Gulf, or risk the anger of a
U.S. Congress already inclined to impose trade sanctions.
(Taizio Watanabe, Foreign Ministry spokesman: "We feel that heat,
that is true. But at the same time, it is not the heat coming from
the outside only, but coming from inside.")
The internal heat is coming from an unprecedented debate here about
how much Japan can do without violating its constitution, which
forbids Japan from engaging in war. Some Japanese now fear that
sending too much aid or manpower may violate the spirit of the
constitution, or worse. Others say Japan should amend its
constitution, and act like a world power. Meanwhile, Prime
Minister Kaifu is trying to build a national consensus for greater
involvement by Japan, and recent surveys indicate growing support
among the usually apolitical Japanese public.
(ABC-5)
Rather reports that sources tell CBS News Secretary Baker is
seeking a major commitment from the Saudis to finance the U.S.
troop buildup -- as much as $6 billion for the soldiers and
weaponry, and another $4 billion for the Arab nations straining
under the weight of the crisis.
(CBS-3)
Schieffer reports that there is late word from Saudi Arabia that
secretary Baker did succeed in his request for a multi-billion
commitment from the Saudis to help pay the cost of keeping U.S.
forces in the kingdom. No exact figures were given, but a Saudi
official said there was a meeting of the minds during Baker's talks
with King Fahd.
(CBS-6)
GULF CRISIS/CONGRESS
Jennings reports that congressmen paying a visit to U.S. forces in
Saudi Arabia today complained about the pace of the military
buildup, saying it is going too slowly. They've also been hearing
complaints from the troops.
-
White House News Summary
Friday, September 7, 1990 -- B-8
ABC's Bill Redeker reports that for the fifth time in a month, U.S.
politicians took the tour of our forces in Saudi Arabia. But this
group heard some complaints. Weapons are overheating, for example.
The congressmen were from a defense appropriations subcommittee
which influences military spending, and they were critical of the
slow sealift of tanks here.
(Rep. Dicks: "We've got to have better lift here. It's something
that the services have neglected over the years. I think this
operation clearly demonstrates that that's a high priority.")
(Rep. Murtha: "We'll be going back, and we'll be changing the mix
of the money that was asked for this year.")
The congressmen told commanders not to waste money, but to prepare
for a six-month stay, and plan for enough ammunition and supplies.
(ABC-6)
U.S. AIR FORCES
Rather: From the top Marine aviator in country today, tough talk
and a warning for Saddam Hussein. Marine Maj. Gen. Royal Moore
said U.S. forces could neutralize the Iraqi air force within 36
hours.
(Moore: "I think the Air Force and we think that there will be a
very very short air war.")
At a northern Saudi base today, the Marines flexed their air muscle
for the press and Iraqis to see. Gen. Moore said U.S. aircraft
could destroy enemy air defense batteries in minutes.
(Moore: "We want about three to five minutes. And we're going to
give him the most violent three to five minutes that they've ever
seen.")
(CBS-Intro)
U.S. FORCES/MEDICAL SUPPLIES
CBS's Bob Simon reports on a clash of cultures with U.S. hospital
staff in Saudi Arabia. The Marines unveiled what was hailed as a
medical miracle today -- a 500-bed field hospital assembled over
the last 12 days, capable of providing every service available at
any major facility back home. But a Saudi official complained that
GIs working in the street for a medical resupply depot, which is
across from a Saudi park, provide a spectacle unfit for Saudi
families -- because the GIs were women, wearing T-shirts instead
of wrist-to-ankle coverings. An American general ordered the depot
closed down. And at the new facility, soldiers have been warned
to be very careful of Saudi sensitivities if they don't want to be
closed down too. Meanwhile, officers worry that the medical
response should fighting break out might be inadequate, since 400
tons of medical equipment is now sitting on the docks.
(CBS-4)
JORDANIAN REFUGEES
CBS's Tom Fenton reports that Asian refugees have been kept in
intolerable conditions for 10 days by Jordan, because Jordanian
officials built a camp for them to use over a major water supply.
Since that could contamniate it, the camp had to be torn down and
moved. The Jordanian government is trying to cover up its
mistake.

White House News Summary
Friday, September 7, 1990 -- B-9
NUCLEAR WEAPONS/IRAQ
NBC's Fred Francis reports on the case of Raymond Roberts, who
almost sold equipment which could be used to make nuclear weapons
to Iraq just days before Iraq invaded Kuwait. Iraq wanted Roberts'
New Jersey company, Comsock [phonetic], to build three furnaces to
make, Iraq said in documents, artificial hip and knee joints out
of titanium. But Roberts was suspicious, and told the Commerce
Department the end use of the equipment could also be nuclear. NBC
News has learned that the furnaces could be used to cast highly
enriched uranium from bomb cores, or for melting titanium for
rocket motors. But after learning that last year, the Commerce
Department gave Roberts permission to sell Iraq the furnaces. It
was an honest businessman's warning ignored, said one U.S.
official. Everyone in this government knew Saddam Hussein was
building nuclear weapons with Western technology. On top of that,
the furnaces were being shipped to the same complex south of
Baghdad where Iraq was planning to send smuggled nuclear triggers
it tried to acquire from a California firm. The Israeli government
heard about the furnace deal, and protested. But the furnaces were
already under construction, and the Israeli concern was ignored.
That is, until U.S. intelligence learned that other equipment Iraq
was buying in other countries, along with the furnaces, could only
mean production of missiles and nuclear warheads. It was almost
too late; Roberts had the first furnace crated and ready for
shipment. By early summer, the Pentagon was in a high-level debate
with the Commerce Department to stop the shipment. Commerce
refused, and then the President was told.
(President Bush, Aug. 28, 1990: "And so we stopped the export of
furnaces that had the potential to contribute to Iraq's nuclear
capabilities.")
Iraq won't get the furnaces, and Ray Roberts is out $10 million.
He says he was misled by Iraq and the U.S. Commerce Department.
The Pentagon says it's not the first time Commerce has sided with
Iraq. Three years ago, over the Pentagon's objections, Congress
approved the sale of a very sophisticated U.S. computer to Iraq -
- one that could be use for nuclear missile development. (NBC-5)
FUEL SHORTAGES
CBS's Ray Brady reports that there are new warnings this country
will be facing shortages of fuel because of the Persian Gulf
crisis.
(Edward Krapels, Energy Security Analysis: "On a global basis, we
see a shortage of around two million barrels per day, lasting
several months.")
That worry sent crude prices up $1.66 a barrel today. Many
analysts say that means gasoline prices could rise another 25 cents
a gallon at the pump. Even though OPEC nations are pumping more
oil, the embargo has shut off huge supplies of gasoline from
refineries in Kuwait. Because of environmental and economic
reasons, more than 100 refineries in the U.S. have closed in the
past ten years, and therefore cannot take up the slack.
(John Easton, Asst. Energy Sect., testifying Wednesday: "It's the
longer-term, the last half of the fourth quarter that does give us
concern, as the demand for winter heating stocks in the Northern
Hemisphere rises.")
The trouble could come around Dec. 1, say experts.

CLEAN AIR/GASOLINE
NBC's Don Oliver reports on the competition between oil and gas
companies to come up with reformulated, less-polluting gasoline
blends before the U.S. requires gasoline's replacement with
alternative fuels through clean air laws.
(NBC-7)
WAR ON DRUGS/SMUGGLING
NBC's Brad Willis reports on the Dominican Republican connection
for smugglers of drugs. Hundreds of millions of dollars worth of
drugs are now being flown here from Colombia on the way to the
streets of America. Many politicians and policemen take bribes in
the country to look the other way, and the army is short on money
and crime-fighting technology. The temptation to make many times
more than the average Dominican salary of $50 per month is becoming
harder to resist for the average Dominican. Immigration officials
say at least one million Dominicans enter the U.S. every year, many
of whom sell drugs. Their turf spans from New York to New England,
and is spreading west.
(NBC-6)
NATIONAL HEALTH GOALS
Schieffer: Federal health officials set 298 national health goals
today they hope can be met by the year 2000. The goals include
reduction of AIDS cases, cutting tobacco usage, more exercise, and
healthier diets. Many of the health goals are the same ones the
government set for the last decade, but were never met. (CBS-11)

Utah native Brian Watkins, who was killed trying to defend his

EDUCATION/COOPERATIVE LEARNING
ABC's Bill Blakemore reports on the educational concept of
cooperative learning, which allows students to band together in the
classroom to help one another learn the subject matter, rather than
just focusing on what the teacher has to say and learning
independently. Teachers say it is producing higher test scores,
trouble-free school integration, and fewer discipline problems --
all without sorting children out into ability groups. (ABC-10)
