Clinton demands
action in Bosnia
WASHINGTON (AP)—President.
Clinton, reacting to the carnage in
Gorazde, pressed for more aggressive
NATO military action to stof/Serb
attacks on safe havens in Bosnia.,
“We must make the Serbs pay a
higher price for the continued vio
lence,” he told a While House news
conference Wednesday.
Clinton said the United States,
V Russia and European allies planned
“a major diplomatic initiative’ to end
the strife in the former Yugoslavia.
He did not provide details, saying they
remained to be worked out.
“Air power alone will not settle
thisconflict,”Clinton said.“Thiscon
flict will have to be settled through
negotiations.”
Clinton conferred by phone with
Russian President Boris Yeltsin,
French President Francois Mitterrand
and Canadian Prime Minister Jean
Chretien.
Clinton proposed that NATO ex
tend to Gorazde and other “safe ha
vens” in Bosnia the same approach
that was used last month to break the
siegeofSarajcvo. the Bosnian capital.
That approach involved setting up
a zone around the city and making it
off-limits to heavy guns. Serbs were
required topullback their weapons 12
miles from Sarajevo. They complied
under the threat of NATO air strikes.
Sarajevo and Gorazde arc two ol
six safe havens designated by the
United Nations.
Under the previous policy, NATO
air strikes could only be called to
protect U.N. peacekeepers. The lone
exception had been in Sarajevo.
Asked if it was “too late” to save
Gorazde, Clinton said, “No.”
“It's too late for a lot ofpcople who
have been killed there,” he said. The
Muslim enclave could yet be restored
as a safe haven if the Serbs would end
their assault, Clinton said.
Clinton also said he expected the
U.N. Security Council to authorize
additional peacekeepers, “which we
will support.”
lsfATO signaled it was willing to
go along with Clinton's proposal but
delayed final approval togivc military
advisers time to consider the best way
to proceed. .—-——___
Doctors and foreign aid workers
said Serb gunners were firing
point-blank at the main hospital and
bombarding the Muslim enclave with
artillery shells, rockets and heavy
machine guns.
S inee m id n i gh t T uesday, 44 pei )p le,
including 15 ch ildren, had been killed
in Gorazde, according to U.N. spokes
man Kris Janowski in Sarajevo. That
raised the casualty toll to 3K9 dead
and 1,324 wounded since the Serb
offensive began three weeks ago.
Support pouring in tor
hospitalized Nixon
NEW YORK (AP) — Partially
paralyzed and unable to speak, Rich
ard Nixon moved Wednesday through
what his doctor termed the “critical
hours” that will determine whether
the former president recovers from a
major stroke.
As the SI-year-old Nixon remained
in critical condition in New' York
Hospital’s intensive care unit, get
well messages poured in from around
the world, including a telegram from
Russian President Boris Yeltsin.
“I hope you recover and return to
the rough and tumbleofpolilical life,”
Yeltsin wrote.
“We’ve gotten too many telephone
calls to count,” said Liz Johnston, one
of three Nixon staffers who fielded
call after call at the former president’s
, office in suburban Woodcliff Lake,
N ..I. “Some arc f riends, some are com
plete strangers, some are people with
remedies.”
Dr. Fred Plum, New York
Hospital’s chief of neurology, said
Nixon was suffering from swelling of
*■ the brain, a complication from the
strokehesuffered Monday. Hisdaugh
ters. Julie Eisenhower and TriciaCox,
were at his side. His wife, Pat, died
last year.
The Richard M. Nixon Prcsiden
tial Library and Birthplace in Yorba
Linda,Calif., reported receiving hun
dreds of Calls about Nixon’s condi
tion. A taped message urged callers to
send gel-well messages to the library.
Visitors filled a dozen pages in a
“gel-well book’’placed in the library's
lobby.
“You are a hero of mine,” Kevin
Walters, a Biola University student,
wrote. "Stay with us, OK? Hang in
there and keep your eyes on God.”
Yoro Noboru, Japan’s consul gen
eral m Los Angeles, signed a page
with. “Please get well soon.”
Some people ordered souvenirs
with Nixon’s signature, including
$300 photographs and autographed
baseballs and $100 postcards with
Elvis stamps.
“We’re Nixon fans all the way.
He’s such a wonderful man. We need
him,”said Eleanor Burke, 58,ofCan
yon Lake, Calif, who brought rela
tives from Connecticut to the library.
In the hours after the stroke, doc
tors said Nixon was out of grave dan
ger, alert and in good spirits.
He was moved out of intensive care
briefly Tuesday. but relumed two hours
later when his condition worsened.
Senate refuses to eliminate
free parking at local airports
WASH INCiTON (AP)—Congress
has eliminated its free health care and
gym privileges, but the Senate on
Wednesday drew the line in the park
ing lot. 11 defeated a resolution to wipe
out lawmakers’ free,reserved parking
at Washington’s National and Dulles
airports.
Before his resolution lost by a 53
• 44 vote, Sen. John McCain said de
claring World War III "would prob
ably evoke less emotion” from his
colleagues. He was right.
Sen. John Danforth, R-Mo., pas
sionately attacked the proposal, de
claring it promoted the false impres
sion that lawmakers — with some
work weeks reaching 100 houft —
were “ripping offthe country by perks
and by pay.”
“When is this Congress-bashing
going to stop?” Sen. Carol Moscley
Braun, D-lll., said.
Both spoke of the many nights
when they furiously dashed from the
Senate floor to one of the two airports
in suburban Virginia, to catch the last
plane home.
McCain, R-Ariz., had a different
! view of the 124 close-in spaces at
National, anil 51 at Dulles, that are
reserved for the 540 members ofCon
gress, nine Supreme Court justices
and scores of diplomats.
The parking privilege, he said, "is
a perfect example of how out-of-touch
the Congress often is with the over
whelming majority of Americans."
McCain said the park ing should go
the. way of other eliminated congres
sional perks: free health care, free
gym privileges and cut-rate haircuts.
Twenly-two Democrats and 21 fel
low Republicans supported McCain,
who was the only senator speak ing for
his proposal. Thirty-one Democrats
and 22 Republicans were opposed.
Several senators switched during
the vote.
The resolution was not binding; it
could not have forced the independent
Washington Metropolitan Airports
Authority, which runs Dulles and
National, to act.
However, authority spokeswoman
Tara Hamilton said “we are happy to
extend that courtesy” to lawmakers
but “if Congress expresses a desire
that wenolongerextendthat courtesy
we would follow its wishes.”
