Good news·from from small business By JOHN CUNNIFF AP Business Analyst NEW YORK -As if it were right from Santa's workshop, positive : economic news has been delivered by lhe bagful during December, and · the presents are likely to pile up right mto the New Year. . What a bagful! Inflation is barely noticeable, joblessness is down, : housin~ and autOs strong, consumers are spending again, confidence is rising, mterest rates are low (lhough, of course, that's not good news for · savers). The sack almost bursts when you consider that production is up, output per hour is strong, profits have been maintained, capital spending plans seem 10 be worlcing lheir way higher, and inventories are low and must be replenished. The latest conflrlllation of an economic spurt in the concluding weeks : of the year comes in a su1prisingly bright report from small business, : which had been inclined 10 lhink nothing but taxes came down lhe chim. ney. : The report, from the National Federation of Independent Business, · shows that small-business optimism rose in November, with the percent: age of companies expecting lhe economy to improve doubling the record· : low level of August. ' The November surVey, analyzed by economist William Dunkelberg, showed big gains in hiring plans and record-low plans to taise prices, and a feeling that inventories are 100 low and must be rebuilt It reflected growing optimism; in fac~ the federation's business opti· : mism index recovered virtually all of the ground lost since last January. This is all a bit surprising, since small business attitudes and plans, as · reflected in the monthly and quarterly surveys by the NFIB, have made fairly depressing reading. Small-business people have been wary and doubtful. Yes, says Dunkelberg, they still are, in spite of the improvement. He, . like so many economists, auaches asterisks and fine print 10 the recent · good news,lhe qualification bei"' that Chrisunas isn't forever. : While attitudes are more pos1tive, said, Dunkelberg, they're coming : from a very low level. While there was indeed a jump in the number of . respondents expecting a better economy, even more companies expect it : to be worse. . In other words, the good news, despite being exlremely welcome, is . stiU accompanied by little black asterisks, qualifications and warnings, : amid all the bright lights and stars on the tree. Consumers, for example, are buying, but on credit rather than with : cash from an improved paycheck. Unemployment is dropping, but compa. nies are terminating jobs. The savin.ss rate, though up lhis month, is still very low. Among small-business people the big concern is taxes. Twenty-seven :percent of respondents - there are about 2,000 in the quarterly surveys ·-picked taxes as their most important problem.

Lewin-VHI, a private research and analysis fum, hired a panel of experts that included high-level members of the Reagan and Bush economic and budget teams 10 dissect the Qinron plan. The study, while complicated, seems essentially straightforward. Yet newspapers reporting on it had widely differing inte1pretations. The Washington Post, for instance, . under the headline "Health Plan Funding Passes Muster," concluded that the fund· ing system proposed by the Qinron plan is fundamentally .sound. "Our funding estimates are in the same ballpark as theirs," said Lewin· VHI President Robert Rubin, an assistant secretary of Robert]. Wagman Health and Human Services in the Reagan years. "It meets the ~si­ dent's requirement of provtding universal coverage and it does so without relying on an increase in broad-based income taxes." NaturaUy the ClintOn administration was thrilled with this interpretation and rushed lavish praise on the study. Office of Mnnagement nnd Bud$et Deputy Direcror Alice Rivlin srud, "This srudy verifies our funding estimates and the soundness of our program." But the administration was unhappy with the interpretation of the study by The New York Times. There, under the headline "New Analysis Finds Higher Costs in heallh care, aone-parent family Health Plan," the Times played up would pay $5,172 and a two-parent the negative aspects of the study, family about $5,975.

Perhaps because of this - although the researchers do not directly allege it -the death rate among Medi-Cal patients from heart disease was much higher. · Most significant to the current health care debate was the study's finding that the best qualjty health care seems 10 be provided by California's many health maintenance organizations. It appears that those HMO patients who needed advanced heart disease treatment received it and, as a result, their death rates were significantly lower. ''We suspect that HMO patients received the most appropriate treatment," said Dr. Elliott Sussman, a co-author of the study. HMOs are the kind of managed care systems favored by the Clinton administration, and they are forecast 10 play a growing role in the health care system. .

By the mid-1800s Lawrence County had become a major iron industry region in Ohio, and in 1819, at a location called Union Landing, the rust iron furnace was constructed.

(AP) - Escarnbia will become lhe second county in Florida to give hi~h school students the option of leaving campus an hour daily for rehgious insD'Uction. The hour will come out of study hall, extracurricular or olher nonacademic time under a policy the Escarnbia school board adopted recently on a 3-2 vote. Participants would be required to take the same number of credits, including elective courses, as olher students when lhe policy goes into effect next August. Principals also will be able to prohibit students from participating if that would interfere with their academic progress, school district spokeswoman Barbara Frye said. Classes will be conducted by churches or other religious groups on their own propeny. Brevard was lhe ftrst of F1orida's 67 counties to allow time off for off-campus religious education.

But I hate the idea of New Year's Eve (it's like the Senior Prom: 100 much pressUre ID have a good time) and of New Year's Day, which involves far 100 much watching of football for my taste.

Books and·authors: In search of everyday muses NEW YORK (AP) - In a Manhattan hotel room, thousands of miles from the land of Israel, Amos Oz witnessed a miracle. A beam of sunlight slipped through the curtains one morning, caroming off a half-filled glass of water, fanning out over the bedroom dresser. "I think sometimes l tend to notice a certain pattern in things, even in lhc smallest of objects,even to some very banal occurrence," the author said. "This is the dividing line between inner life and innec death, as Iring as one can be intrigued and fascinated and astonished by the most everyday things." It is a world of muses both near and mysterious. For Oz, astonishment can happen any moment paying the phone bill, washing the dishes, smoothing out a pillow, or, doinj! what he's doing now relaxing in the hotel lounge, smoking cigarettes, enjoying a cup of lemon tea Oz, perhaps Israel's most famous living writer, is humbled by details most people take for granted. The author expresses himself with the authority of a sphinx answering his own riddles. Like many of his characters, Oz speaks as if engaged in a running debate with God. And he seems to have spent a lifetime honing his arguments. "This is a very old Jewish tradition, going all the way back to the Bible, the book of Genesis," he said. "You may remember the episode with Abraham quarreling with God over the city of Sodom, calling God to do justice. ... You will f'md this in my work; theological quests do fascinate me in a way.' Born in Jerusalem 54 years ago, Oz is a cme-time "raging idealist" who at 15 fled from his middleclass falher and lived on a kibbutz .. The author likens himself to a 350year-old American, an observer of the birth of his country, the maturing of his country and the inevitable disillusionment. He is also one of Israel's leading liberals, a veteran of two IsraeliArab wars who went on to help found the Peace Now movement. His position on living with the Palestinians is in line with the recent Jsraeli-PLO negotiations: two seperate states, neither friends nor enemies, as cool and practical as a formal handshake. Oz's politics clearly are stated in his two works of nonficticm, "The Slopes of Lebanon" and "In the Land of Israel." But in fiction seven novels, a book of novellas ·and two collection of stories - his more mystical side reigns . All points of view are heard from, none are to be accepted as fact . The author is a chronicler of unreliable, slightly mad idealists, a way of sayin~ all s~~ the capacity for mtSIIIllded opiruons. ''Thave no message," he said.

(AP) - For sculptor Tim Holmes, recognition came thousands of miles from his Montana home, at an acclaimed museum known for its collections of art by Rembrandt, Michelangelo and olhet masters. Afiery~ofhearinghismew work wasn't good enough for the major museums of the United States, Holmes has drawn raves for his show at the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersbwg, Russia. He is the firSt contempcnry American sculptor to be honored wilh a solo exhibit there. "Sculptures by Tim Holmes deserve being displayed in lhe best museums of the world," Mikhail Piotrovsky, director of the Hermitage, told a St. Petersburg newspaper. Holmes, just back from several weeks in Russia, said be was overwhelmed by the public response to his show, and to art in general. Even a man he remembers as "a· Doberman of a customs inspector" shyly asked for Holmes' autograph on a catalog for the Hermitage exhibit. The 38-year-old sculptor, whose artistic form is similar to Rodin's, works in a sunny studio a few blocks from the Montana Capitol. Holmes said he's had a lot of "hit and miss" shows in the United States, and a few exhibits at such places as the Paul Mellon Arts Center in Connecticut. But he hasn't neally unlocked lhe gates of America's majOr museums. ''Americans respond more to fame than they do to quality," Holmes said. The month-long Russian show lhat ran through Dec. 5 provided a measure of fame that he hopes will remove some barriers. About 35 Holmes works were on display. Three will remain in the vc:rmanent collection qf the Hermitage. Holmes' pieces now sell for up to$ 10,000, and he SUP!XJrts himself sionate; noobody can be .totally wrons, either wilh an ideological point, or an emotional point, or a political point. But then agai11, I don't think I can capsulize my words into 8 theory or conclusion.'' In "Fima," the tide character is a typical Oz anti-hero: ·an intelligent man unable to connect with those around him. He is middleaged, yet childlike, torn between an internal drive for control and an external history of chaos. He is a poet, a pest, a liberal, a compulsive arguer, a fumbling womanizer, a friend to his exwife's son, a fantasizer of imaginary cabinet meetings, a sentimenwist who conducts a funeral for a cockroach named Trotsky. Fima is lhe most comic member of the family of Oz obsessives.

Many are "enameled" in a guil· loche technique, with up to seven layers of powdered glass baked on a layer at a time to create a translucent silk-like fmish . If a Faberge egg is out of the question for your cherished one this holiday seas\)11, there are others ·for less, such as a cream and black duck egg decorated in gold tone and jet and crystal stones .

Clinton said in an interview Wednesday with The Associated Press and other news organizations that he doesn't feel Jinxed JUSt because his successes often have been followed by disappointments. ''Nothing ever goes right forever in anybody's life; nothmg ever goes wrong forever m anybody's life," he said. Overall. Clinton smd "I'm very pleased with the year we had in terms of the economy improving and many of the substantive legislative advances he had." As to the allegations of sexual misconduct while he was ~overnor of Arkansas, Clinton said: "Obviously , it hasn't been a pleasam thing, especiaUy coming here at the holiday sea- son." But Clinton denounced allegations that he used his gubernatorial security detail to help arrange ex tramarital affairs. "They're outrageous and they 're not so." he said of the accusations made by two of his former guards. "We hav e not done anythin~ wrong," he said m his first public comments on charges by two Arlcansas state troopers that they helped Clinton meet women, booked -hotel rooms for liaisons and sneaked a woman into the governor's mansion after he was elected president. Questions about the troopers ' allegations dominated three separate, year-end-assessment interviews Clinton conducted with reporters from news agencies, radio networks and the Arkansas med1a. He denied that he tried to buy the silence of one trOOper by offering him a job before the allegations became public. ''The allegations on abuse of thestateorthe federal positions I have - it's not uuc," Clinton said. "That absolutely clid not happen,'' he said. In his interview with AP Broadcast and other radio networks, the president was asked directly by Peter Maer of Mutual-NBC Radio: "So none of this ever happened?" "I have nothing else to say," Clinton said. Then he hesitated and, groping for words, added: "We ... we did, if, the, the. I, I. the stories are just astheyhavebeensaid. They'reouuageous and they're not so." On another subject, Clinton said the strong showing by ultranationalist VladimirZhirinovsky in the recent Russian elections makes his own trip to Moscow next month even more crucial. He indicated he would not meet with Zhirinovsky during the Jan. 12-15 summit. "I have no plans to do that," Clinton said of a possible meeting with the right-wing rival to Russian President Boris Yehsin. In the interview, summing up hi s first II months in office, Clinton said he'd had many highs. Among them, he cited the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice' Ruth Bader Ginsburg, passageofhis budget package and the North American Free Trade Agreement, and signing of the Middle East peace accord. "The low for me as president obviously was when the young men lost their lives in Somalia.'' he said. referring to the 18 Americans killed in a fire fight in Mogadishu on Oct. 3. Clinton boasted that he had fmished work on his budget for the next fiscal year - nearly a month ahead of the usual sc hedule- and that it would reduce the deficit to below $200 billion. Court justices have used the court's security force to provide taxi service for visiting relatives, work overtime at wedding receptions and push supermarket jarts. Such assignments sparked deep rescntment and led to a policy aimed at curtailing abuses, The Associated Prc$S has learned. The SO-member police force represents about one-founh of the high court's total employees. Ten years ago, Congress broadened the court's authority to use police for security after one of the justices was attacked. "I really don't want to get into specifics," court spokeswoman Toni House said when asked about recent activities. ''There were some past practices when no fmn policy was in place. They have been discontinued." Incidents Cited bycounemployecs . who spoke only on the condiuon of anonymity , inclode these: - When Ju stice Anthony M. Kennedy's daughter, Kristin, was marriedlastweekend,herparen~were hosts for a wedding reception for 300 guests at the stately court building.

The rules sent to field commanders Wednesday seek to guide them through the intricacies of the new policy of "don' t ask, don't tell, don't pursue" that prohibits homosexual conduct but ends discharges based merel y on a person's se~ual orientation. President Clinton was battered early in his administration by his attempt to hft tl1 e ban, and the JXlliCy that has emerged reflects the resistance of Congress and the military to permitting openly gay men and women to ·serve. : It also leaves unresolved several lawsu1 ts challenging theconstitutionality of the ban, and the question of whether the " don 'task" concept can work in a military traditionally hos tile to gays and lesbians. " II they Simply put into effect a policy that punishes servi~e members for dcclarmg that they are gay or lesbian , such a policy cannot withstand constitutional scrutiny," said Lanny Breuer, attorney for Sgt.

" But we would like to fight them out on the new policy rather than on the old policy." He argued that smce Congress. the military and the administration have backed the changes, the courts may find reason to support it. Naval Petty Officer Keith Meinhold, who was discharged in August 1992 after clisclosing his homosexuality on national television, said Wednesday that Aspin "has utterly failed to solve the issue of gays in the mihtary." Meinhold said the scenarios for when not to open an investigation of a service member were meant to protect heterosexuals. Meinhold re-enlisted in the Navy this month, after a federal appeals court in Meinhold's court case upheld a judge's order banning discrimination against gays in the military. The Pentagon laid out several scenarios to help commanders: -A commander should not begin an inquiry if a service member is seen " hanging around" a gay bar. "Going to a gay bar is nota crime, nor does it , m itself, constitute a 'nonverbal statement' by the service member that he is a homosexual." -Joining a gay rights march with a banner saying that lesbians in the military want to end the ban JS not in nself incriminating, although it would be "reasonable" for the commander to inquire whether the woman was seeking to make public that she is a lesbian. -Holding hands with a mem berof the same sex while off-duty does constitute " credible information of homose~ual conduct." -If an officer tells a friend he is gay but has engaged in no homosexual acts while in service and intends to continue to refrain from such acts, he could be allowed 10 stay in the military if a board of inquiry determined he had not engaged in homosexual acts and was unlikely to do so. The rules go into effect Feb. S. The new policy says: -Applicants to the military will not be asked about his or her sexual orientation. -Members will be removed from the service' 'on the basis of conduct, not sexual orientation." -No criminal investigations of sexual misconduct will be initiated solely oodetermine a service member's sexual orientation. -Questions about an individual's sexual orientation will not be asked on personnel security questionnaires. - Applicants and service members periodically will be informed of the new rules. communist Pyongyang government considers of higher priority , it said. North Korea is likely to pursue a shortcut by trying to buy complete missile systems and essential technologies from countries that already have ICBMs, the repon said. Such transactions would violate the Missile Technology Control Regime, which bans the export of missiles or missile components with ranges of more than 300 kilometers, or about 190 miles. The repon said Iran and Iraq are technically able to produce an ICBM on their own in JOto 15 years from the time a decision is made to start.

In his first major response to the If elections, Yeltsin ended days of deep ' concern at home and abroad that he might 'alter the reform course followmg the victory of ultranationalists. who have vowed to dismantle his economic policies. But Yeltsin told a Kremlin news conference that " the limit of the people's patience has nearly been reached" after two years of painful economic re forms. He said his government would do more for the poor and unemployed, who have suffered the most and were vulnerable to "aggressive populist slogans." Ye ltsin was upbeat and confident throughout the hourlong news conference. broadcast live on national TV from the meeli ng hall of the former Sov iet legislatu re. The nationalist Liberal Democratic Party led by Vladimir Zhirinovsky won nearly a quarter of the vote in the Dec . 12 election, rrusi ng fears Yeltsin might seek to acco mmodate a dangerous political force. But Yc ltsln emphasi.-cd Rus'·:ta ·s economic and foreign policy would remain the same and said he would serve out his term as president, which expires in June 19% . Economics Minister YegorGaidar, the arc hitect of the reforms, will stay in office. Yeltsin said. "That means that the course he is following will m ntinue," the president declared. Yeltsin will be able to pursue reforms despite parliamentary opposiIIOn because the new consti tution approved in the same election - gives him sweeping powers. Speaking calmly, Yeltsin said the election results were not a tragedy for Russia. " Throughout the election campaign, wide use was made of demagoguery, preaching of primitive nationalism, oulright lies and even dangerous provocations," he said. "Unfortunately, a substantial part of the electornte is stili too trusting of reckless promises. " Without nam ing names, Yeltsin criticized the reformers, who split into numerous political blocs rather than uniting in one pany to fight the opposition.

South Africa's black majority the right ; to rule fo~ lhe fllSttime. But a right~ wingleadervowedtowagea " Iibera~ lion struggle" for whites. · After two days of fruitless talks {with the Freedom Alliance, a coali:- lion oC conservative whites and blacks ;;opposed to the constitution, the gov1·emment and African National Con~ gress decided to go ahead and pass the ;document they hammered out in No·' vember after two years of negotm ~ lions. :-. They rejected last-minute changes :· sought by the Freedom Alliance thm · would have wealcened the powers of , the central government and allowed ;· the possibility of a white homeland , ;"or " volkstaat," and autonomous re,,:gions. : But the government and ANC held ~out the possibility the constitution · could be amended early next year 1f : their foes agree to recogmzc its legitimacy and panicipate in the country's · ·first non-racial elections April 27. Speaking this morning, the leader .of the pro-apanheid Conservative Pany. Ferdi Hartzenberg. said the constitution as presently written could not bring peace because it did not satisfy groups represented by the Freedom Alliance. ·'The fact that the Afrikaner nation, lhc Zulu nation and the Tswana nation arc not accommodated means there is not a sol uti on at this stage." he said. Afrikaners are descendanL' of the early white settlers, while Zulus andTswanas arc two of the country's major black tribes. Hanzenberg, speaking to foreign journalists, sa1d the constitution would result in a Communist dictatorship in South Africa. R1ght-wingershave long claimed that Nelson Mandel a's ANC, the country 's largest black organization, is controlled by them inuteSouth African Communist Pany, a close ANC ally. Unless the govem~nt and ANC grnnt whites their own state, he said, "Our liberntion struggle will start and it will end in a success.... We are not going to rest unti I we are free." Still, the decis1on by the ANC and the government to consider amending the constitution by Jan . 24 repre- sents a compromise. which in effect keeps 1he poten tiall y disruptive alli ance mlkin g and red uces chances it will seek to ohmuct the tran sition to democracy . Whites 1n the Freedom Alliance say they will only feel secure if th ey attain a while homeland , while blacks such as lnka1ha Freedom Party leadc. Mangosuthu ButhelcLi wam preservation of speua l powers 1n some of the black homeland s se t up under the apartheip system. This would ensure Buthelezi 's Zulu-dommatcd party a JlOWerbase'" us KwaZulu homeland. The constitution envisions eliminating the homelands, bringing all South Africa under one governmem. Freedom Allianc e Chairman Rowan CronJC said the group was disappointed it could nm ge l an agreement before Parliament voted on the constitution. But he said an "open door has been made possible'' to eventually satisfy the alliance'sdemands. If the alliance reaches a deal with the government and ANC. Parliament would likely have to. reconvene next year to pass the amendments. "We've been bending over backwards,'· President F. W. de Klerk said earlier of the government's effons to satisfy the alliance. "I want them to be part of the system. The problem has been there was a refusal from the side of the Freedom Alliance.'' While the ANC and the government said including the alliance was the best way to ensure a peaceful transition to democracy. they also made clear nothing would stop the new constitution and the April election . The French delegate, Maj. Gen. Daniel Roudeillac, said he did not consider the visit a failure. ' 'One cannot fail when one is working for peace," he said. Diplomaticrepresentati ves from the four counlries met Monday with Aristide, Haiti's ftrst democratically elected president but considered too far to the left in his politics for the military and some of the Haiti elite. He was ousted by the army in Septem ber 1991. Aristide, who now lives in Washmgton, refused to support the conference. He said he would need 10 be physically present and it was too dan gerous for him or his aides to return home now. Anny-backed gunmen have terrorized the country, one of the poorest in the world, for months. · Haiti has been sent further reeling from the international oil embargo, which is aimed at pressuring the army to allow Aristide' s return. Critics say the embargo is hurting Haiti 's people more than the military. itself'felt in the course of the eleciion campaign," Yeltsin said. " Discord among the democrati c forces played a fatal pan." Yeltsin already has fired a number of officials, including reforme rs. and dissolved the powerful Security Min istry, the domestic intelli gen.:e agency, for failing to predict danger ous political curren.ts. A funher government shakeup is likely, Yeltsin said. Work was under way '"the mili tary, which vo ted heav il y for Zhirinovsky and the Communi sts. to explain the reforms and counter na tionalist tendencies among the tr<Xlps. Yeltsin said. Drawing a personal lesson from the elections, Yeltsin said he planned to create a single, "presidential" politi- cal party to8dvance his cause. He d.~ not openly back any party during campaign. Yeltsin's ultranatiOnali st and Communist opponents may have won many as two-thirds of the 450 scats i'n the State Duma, the lower house of " parliament Results in the upper house, the Fel!ernlion Cound l, are not yet clear. The Central Election Commission said at least40 members of the o(d, hard-line parliament that Yellsin di ssolved in September will be in the upper house. The new parliament convenes Jan . lf as Yeltsin expressed confidence the democrats in the new parliament would unite and.he ruled out any kind of coalition government with ultranationalists or Communists.
