SUBJ: Japan Insolvencies-2:"Recession" Failures 50.4% Of Total
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Japanese corporate insolvencies in
September jumped 35% from the year before to 1,145 cases,
marking the 24th consecutive month of year-on-year increase,
private credit research agency Teikoku Data Bank Ltd.
announced Wednesday.
Insolvent companies left behind debts of 706.7 billion
yen in September, up 25% from the year before and the third
highest total over the first nine months of 1992.
Teikoku Data Bank said September's insolvencies and bad
debt figures were swelled by a few major real estate-related
failures as well as a growing number of insolvencies tied to
weak demand conditions. The number of "recession"
insolvencies - tied to factors such as weak sales and
exports - in September climbed to 577, or 50.4% of the
total, a high for the year.
September was the eighth month in a row that the number
of insolvencies exceeded 1,000.
September's 1,145 insolvencies were 3.8% below August's
total of 1,154. But debts left behind in September surged
86% from August's 380.1-billion-yen total.

SUBJ: Australian Housing Minister Sees Continuing Recovery
CANBERRA -(AP-DJ)--Brian Howe, Australia's Minister for
Health and Housing, said Wednesday that the recovery in the
housing industry is expected to continue, adding that
forecasts might have to be revised upward.
"It appears that the 152,000 commencements forecast by
the Indicative Planning Council in 1992/93 will be easily
realized," Howe said in a statement.
Earlier of Statistics reported that the
number of housing-finance approvals rose a seasonally
adjusted 8.3% in August from July and jumped 23.3% from
August 1991.
"Housing starts have risen for five consecutive quarters
and are at their highest level since September 1989," Howe
said.
"Home purchase is now the most affordable it has been
for the past seven years. Homebuyers can be confident that
affordability will remain a top priority under this
government," the minister added.
On the basis ofdata on both building approvals and
housing finance, "it can be confidently stated that dwelling
commencements will show another rise in private-sector
housing starts" in the quarter ended Sept. 30, Howe said.

SUBJ: USDA approves process that dramatically reduces salmonella in
chicken

electronic darkroom that can accept overhead transmissions.

There is no charge to the media for this service.
(ADVANCE) CRANBURY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A new process that
dramatically reduces the incidence of salmonella and other bacteria during
broiler processing has been approved by the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA).
The process, developed and patented by Rhone-Poulenc Inc.(a) (subsidiary
of Rhone-Poulenc S.A., NYSE:RP Pr A), uses AvGard trisodium phosphate
(TSP), a common food grade orthophosphate. TSP is generally recognized as
safe (GRAS) by the Food and Drug Administration and is widely used in
processed cheese and breakfast cereals.
``With the help of the USDA, we've taken an important step toward
improved food safety,'' said Richard V. Kennedy, vice president and
general manager of Rhone-Poulenc Food Ingredients. ``While Americans
enjoy the best poultry in the world, AvGard TSP will help make it even
better.''
Americans consume five to six billion broilers each year. AvGard TSP
treated chickens are expected to begin reaching supermarkets within three
to six months and be widely available within two years. Processing cost is
estimated to be less than one cent per bird.
Independent taste tests show the treatment has no effect on flavor,
texture or appearance of treated poultry.
Rhone-Poulenc will license the patented technology to interested broiler
processors. Plant-scale equipment has also been developed by the
Rhone-Poulenc team to properly control the process for maximum
effectiveness. Using this specialized equipment, broilers are exposed to
a solution of trisodium phosphate, in line, near the end of the processing
operation.
Rhone-Poulenc expects to work promptly with the USDA to evaluate the use
of AvGard TSP on other poultry (turkey, cornish hen, duck), beef and pork.
Another potential use is seafood.
Most salmonella infections are believed to be caused by improper handling
or preparation after the products leave the processing plant. Serving
cooked poultry on a platter than contains juices from the raw meat, for
example, can recontaminate the bird and trigger rapid bacterial growth.
By dramatically reducing the presence of salmonella on processed poultry,
AvGard TSP can help reduce the risk of illness due to subsequent
mishandling.
According to the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, about 40,000
salmonella infections (from all food sources) are reported in the United
States every year.
``AvGard is the type of innovation envisioned when we expanded our
commitment to the North American market in the late '80s,'' said Peter J.
Neff, president and CEO of Rhone-Poulenc Inc. ``Our ongoing partnership
with the poultry industry is what will make this new technology a
success.''
Rhone-Poulenc expanded its North American sales from less than $400
million in 1986 to more than $2.3 billion last year.
Rhone-Poulenc Inc. is the U.S. subsidiary of Rhone-Poulenc S.A., the
seventh largest chemical and pharmaceutical company in the world with 1991
sales of $14.8 billion.

SUBJ: Heard On Street: Stock Prices South Of Border May Head North
By Matt Moffett
MEXICO CITY -- For investors with machismo, now might be the time to go
hunting for bargains amid the rubble of the Mexican stock market, The Wall
Street Journal reported.
You remember Mexico's Bolsa de Valores, right? After soaring 118% in 1991
and then shooting up a further 30% during the first two months of this
year, the Bolsa lost 35% of its value from June to October.
Triggering the slump were political attacks on the proposed North
American Free Trade Agreement by a pair of U.S. presidential candidates --
first maverick Ross Perot, then Democrat Bill Clinton. The trade accord,
completed in August and facing a congressional vote sometime next year,
has been seen by investors as crucial to ensuring continuity of Mexico's
free-market economic reforms.
But all at once the political clouds over the accord are beginning to
dissipate. Voter support for Perot, while on the upswing, hasn't matched
the levels of the spring. Clinton has suggested he could probably satisfy
his desire for tougher labor and environmental standards through ancillary
agreements with Mexico, rather than renegotiation of the entire pact.
Mexicans are ecstatic, for they feared renegotiation would open a
Pandora's Box of problems.
"Now it can be affirmed that the two most important political forces in
the U.S. agree on the advantage of having a free trade agreement," gushed
President Carlos Salinas de Gortari.
U.S. investors in Mexico certainly hope he's right. Prices for several
U.S.-listed closed-end funds investing in Mexico have plunged and are
limping along 40% below their yearly peaks.
Mexico Fund trades on the New York Stock Exchange at 20 1/4, off from a
peak of 34, and Emerging Mexico Fund languishes at 16 1/8, down from 27
1/4. Mexico Equity & Income Fund stands at 13 3/4, off from 21 7/8. All
three funds, called closed-ends because each has a fixed number of shares,
trade at discounts of about 12% to 13% to the value of the stocks they
own. In other words, an investor who buys these funds is effectively
getting $1 of Mexican stock for 87 or 88 cents.
The Bolsa surged strongly early last week on Clinton's remarks, but has
barely budged since then. There is plenty of upside potential in Mexico,
bulls say.
The market is trading at only around seven times estimated 1993 earnings,
according to Goldman, Sachs & Co. That looks cheap compared with the
Standard & Poor's 500 index of U.S. stocks at roughly 16 times projected
1993 earnings.
While few doubt that there are cheap stocks on the Bolsa today, some
analysts are reluctant to urge investors to jump back into the market
right now. The reason: Mexico's economy is slogging through a weak period.
It began to cool in the second quarter, when the government boosted
interest rates to subdue inflation and to keep capital from flowing out of
the country during the Bolsa's turmoil. Foreign institutions have moved
some funds out of the Bolsa and into the Mexican money market, where
treasury bills offer a tempting 19% return.

SUBJ: Polls After US Vice-Presidential Debate Favor Democrat Gore
NEW YORK -(AP-DJ)--Viewers polled after the U.S. vice
presidential debate Tuesday night reacted more favorably to
Bill Clinton deputy Senator Al Gore than to his two
opponents, but there was no evidence he won any votes for
his ticket.
A poll for "Dateline NBC" found 50 pc of viewers thought
Democrat Gore did the best job in the debate, 32 pc liked
Republican Vice President Dan Quayle and just 7 pc gave top
rank to the independent candidate Admiral James Stockdale.
An ABC News poll asked who won, and Gore barely edged
out Quayle, 38 pc to 35 pc, with 17 pc calling it a tie and
2 pc saying Stockdale. The separation between Gore and
Quayle was within the polls' margin of sampling error of 4.5
percentage points.
ABC called 624 registered voters who already had been
polled Sunday and Monday on their presidential preference.
Fewer were undecided after the debate, but the standings did
not change much: 47 pc for Bill Clinton, up one point, 38 pc
for President George Bush, up three points and 12 pc for
Ross Perot, unchanged.

SUBJ: Japan Insolvencies -3: Fiscal 1st Half Failures Up 33%
Teikoku Data Bank said Japan's domestic economic
slowdown continues to show no signs yet of hitting bottom.
For the fiscal first half from April 1 through September
30, Teikoku Data Bank said insolvencies came to 6,952 cases,
up 33% from the year before. Debts left behind by insolvent
companies during the half came to 3.584 trillion yen, down
6.1% from the year before.
Teikoku Data's statistics cover insolvencies of
companies with debt exceeding 10 million yen. For September,
the number of insolvencies with debts exceeding 10 billion
yen came to 10, up from 9 cases the year before.
September's debt total was boosted by the
200-billion-yen failure of an Osaka-based real estate
business group, Yoshimoto Kosan. The group, which was hurt
by the decline in stock and land prices, was the latest
victim of the bursting of Japan's "bubble" economy. The term
bubble economy refers to the period of sharp asset price
inflation that occurred during the easy money period of the
late 1980s.
But while real estate-related failures stood at 100 in
September, up 12% from the year before and the third
consecutive month above the 100 mark, weak economic
conditions are taking an increasing toll on non-bubble
companies, Teikoku Data said.
Manufacturing company failures surged 85% to 198 in
September from 107 the year before.

SUBJ: Many Ex-Executives Turn To Franchising, Find Frustration
By Michael Selz
As thousands of executives join the ranks of the unemployed, many are
turning to franchise businesses for second careers. There they are often
making a harsh discovery: Their corporate experience poorly prepared them
to be entrepreneurs, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Paul Slaton seemed like a fair bet to succeed at running a small
business, having been a group controller at Crown Zellerbach Corp., the
large San Francisco paper company. After leaving that job, Slaton invested
more than $200,000 to open an AlphaGraphics Inc. quick-printing franchise
in 1986. The outlet's sales growth so impressed his former colleagues that
11 other Crown Zellerbach executives also bought AlphaGraphics
franchises.
What the executives didn't know was that Slaton soon was struggling to
survive. Forced to slash prices to build sales, his store began running up
big losses. The stress of the business was straining his marriage and
pushing Slaton to the breaking point. On Sept. 7, 1988 -- the same day
that his wife filed for divorce -- Slaton left his store early, went home
and fired a .38-caliber pistol into his head.
Although Slaton's tragic response to the pressures of running a franchise
was extreme, the problems he encountered are well known to former
executives who have taken the leap into the franchise world. While many
succeed, a surprising number face the most humiliating experiences of
their lives, even if they've had successful careers in a corporate
bureaucracy.
Of the 12 Crown Zellerbach executives who invested in AlphaGraphics
franchises, only one remains with the chain. Some folded or sold their
stores at a loss. Others are still operating but have severed ties with
AlphaGraphics and dropped its name.
The executives, who left Crown Zellerbach around the time of its 1985
takeover by investor Sir James Goldsmith, partly blame the franchiser
itself for their troubles. But most also concede that they made big
mistakes and failed to foresee major problems, partly because their
corporate outlook impaired their vision.
"This has to be the most humbling experience of my life," says Peter
Smyth, Crown Zellerbach's former director of computer services, who broke
away from AlphaGraphics last year. Five years after opening his franchise,
he says he is still earning less than half his $120,000 corporate salary.
"You think you're so hot coming from a big company, and it turns out you
don't have a clue what the game's about," he says.
Smyth recalls buying a Xerox high-speed commercial copier for $51,000,
only to decide later that it wasn't as good as a less-expensive machine he
could have bought. He ended up selling the copier back to Xerox two years
later for $13,000 -- $9,000 less than he still owed on it.
Luis Ateca, who had earned $80,000 a year as head of Crown Zellerbach's
Latin American sales, says he relied on the franchiser the same way he had
relied on a corporate staff. Before opening his print store in downtown
Miami in 1986, he says he didn't question the franchiser's claim that the
four-block area around his proposed site contained only 11 competitors.

SUBJ: Heard On Street -2-: Some Wait For Interest-Rate Decline
Stefano Natella, a Mexico analyst at CS First Boston Inc., says he's
waiting for signs that interest rates are trending downward before he
recommends buying Mexican equities. He doesn't expect a rate decline until
the first or second quarter of 1993.
But waiting too long to buy could also be risky.
"Once interest rates start moving down, you're probably too late," says
Felicia Morrow, senior analyst and portfolio manager for Emerging Markets
Investor Corp. "If you believe in positioning yourself ahead of the pack,
you have to be thinking of moving soon."
Goldman Sachs says an interest-rate decline and a stock-price rally could
begin as soon as mid-November. By then, according to Jorge Mariscal,
Goldman Sachs's director of Latin American research, many uncertainties
surrounding Mexico's prospects will have faded from view. Early next
month, Mexico will announce what are expected to be minor adjustments to
its anti-inflation plan, known as the Pacto. The stormy U.S. presidential
campaigns will have ended. And the new U.S. president should begin the
task of selling the trade pact to Congress.
U.S. small investors trying to pick individual stocks in Mexico have to
be careful about which sectors they get into, however. One such investor,
Dennis Donham, a university administrator from Pittsburgh, has an
admirable track record on the Bolsa. He was able to make a down payment on
a new home with profit earned from investing in the Mexican telephone
monopoly Telefonos de Mexico, or Telmex, during the market's previous bull
run. Lately, he has tried to repeat his success by buying shares of a
Mexican supermarket chain, Soriana. But retailing companies have been
among those hurt the most by the slow growth of the Mexican economy.
Market pros say the safest bet for investors is to select stocks that
aren't only cheap but are also relatively insulated from the current
slowdown in the economy. Notable among these is Telmex, whose American
depositary receipts trade on the Big Board. Telephone "line growth will
continue to be unaffected by short-term swings in economic growth, due to
Telmex's large installation backlog," says Scott Galle, an analyst at D.A.
Campbell, a Santa Monica, Calif., firm specializing in Latin American
stocks. He's expecting Telmex to post a third-quarter profit of $1.12 per
ADR, compared with 90 cents a year earlier.
Other analysts favor Grupo Sidek, a steelmaker and tourism developer. Its
ADR, quoted in the pink sheets, is trading at only about 5 times this
year's earnings. Sidek's tourism subsidiary, Situr, has prospered during
the economic slowdown by diversifying away from recession-racked Americans
and marketing to European and Mexican tourists, according to D.A.
Campbell's George Santana. During one recent stretch, Situr's flagship
hotel in Cancun was fully booked for 48 days in a row.
Other analysts favor building and construction stocks, which would
benefit from the expected decline in interest rates. Cementos Mexicanos,
the fourth-largest cement maker in the world, has seen its stock mauled
since the company announced a surprise diversification into Spain last
July. But Smith Barney's Scott Kalb says that at its current price of
about 6 times projected 1993 earnings, "Cemex is way oversold."

SUBJ: Many Ex-Executives -2-: Woes With AlphaGraphics Franchises
While an AlphaGraphics spokesman says the chain "thoroughly evaluates"
prospective markets, Ateca claims he later discovered that its research
included only print shops visible from the street. When he belatedly
counted competitors in the upper floors of office buildings, the number of
existing print shops in his service area came to 22. He ended up closing
his store seven months after opening and had to borrow funds from
relatives to move to a new job in New York.
As their corporate careers play out, executives are increasingly giving
franchise businesses a try. Franchisers surveyed earlier this year by
Francorp Inc., a consulting firm in Olympia Fields, Ill., said that former
executives accounted for one-quarter of new applications and that
inquiries from this group were rising.
"Unfortunately most of them don't have the background for succeeding,"
says John Challenger, executive vice president of Challenger, Gray &
Christmas, a Chicago-based outplacement firm. Accustomed to the perks of
large corporations, many former executives "really aren't willing to take
the hit on their income in the early years, they're not prepared for the
long hours and they're used to a corporate structure full of specialists
they can rely on," Challenger contends. "We do all we can to prevent some
people from taking this step."
But Michael Witte, chairman and chief executive of privately held
AlphaGraphics, takes the other side of the argument, maintaining that
former corporate executives are well suited to become franchisees. "They
typically have well-developed business skills," including the ability to
foster teamwork, delegate effectively, understand budgets and follow a
system, he says.
Founded in 1970, AlphaGraphics began selling franchises in 1980 and had
grown to nearly 200 outlets by the time Slaton opened his. While other
quick-printing chains also were expanding rapidly, AlphaGraphics claimed
to be one of the first to offer such services as electronic printing and
graphics. Quick-printing shops typically include high-speed copiers,
binding equipment and sometimes computers that customers can use.
An AlphaGraphics claim that less than 3% of its stores failed made the
idea even more appealing. "I've never been in the bottom 3% of anything,"
says John McKearney, Crown Zellerbach's former vice president of finance
and a graduate of Harvard's Advanced Management Program. "I thought, `This
is going to be a no-brainer.'"
Though they at first accepted the failure rate claim unquestioningly, the
former Crown Zellerbach executives would later claim in a 1991 lawsuit
that a far greater share of franchisees failed. The suit was filed in U.S.
district court in San Francisco. In interviews, the businessmen say that
as corporate executives they had become used to reviewing proposals and
acting on them, not questioning every detail that substantiated their
conclusion. Before signing their franchise agreements, few even bothered
to hire a lawyer.
But once their franchises opened, a problem emerged: With an
AlphaGraphics store's high-tech equipment alone costing more than
$140,000, they had bought the industry's most-expensive franchise. The
upscale image appealed to them, but they were left with break-even points
as much as twice as high as competitors'.

SUBJ: RPT: Analyst Says Australia Isn't Due For Policy Tightening
SYDNEY -(AP-DJ)--Australian interest rates aren't poised
to trend higher, according to St. George Bank Ltd. economist
Peter Clay.
In the bank's latest Market Update publication, Clay
maintains that while rates won't continue to fall, "current
economic conditions don't warrant the beginning of a regime
of progressive monetary policy tightening."
"There are sufficient differences between this
(economic) cycle and previous cycles to render simple `big
picture' comparisons misleading. All of the available
evidence suggests that the ensuing recovery will be very
modest by historical standards," Clay writes.
Furthermore, unemployment is likely to remain high as
the economy begins to recover, while inflation should stay
relatively low, he says.
As a result, Clay envisages interest rates remaining
volatile but staying around the lower levels that the easier
monetary policy of the past two years have produced.
"The high degree of volatility in financial markets will
continue to feature in coming months. The result being that
from time-to-time financial institutions will adjust their
lending and borrowing rates in response to fluctuations in
financial markets," he says.
"These adjustments will represent both risks and
opportunities for clients," he notes. "However, those
looking for the next turning point may be disappointed," he
adds.
Official interest rates in Australia have been lowered
12.25 percentage points since the start of 1990, in 13
steps. The last easing was arranged July 8 and took cash
rates to 5.75%.

SUBJ: Monsanto Pressed To Rewrite Drug Unit's Prescription
By Scott McMurray
ST. LOUIS -- Monsanto Co. faces mounting pressure to find an antidote --
and someone to blame -- for the earnings collapse at its G.D. Searle drug
division, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Monsanto shocked investors and sent its stock price plunging in mid-June
when it projected an unexpectedly big second-quarter operating loss at
Searle. A month later, the company reported a $39 million loss at the
division. It chiefly reflected high testing and marketing costs for new
drugs, inventory dumping by drug distributors and the approval of a
generic rival for Searle's best-selling Calan, which treats high blood
pressure.
No quick fix is in sight at Searle. The unit may post roughly break-even
operating earnings for the third quarter when Monsanto releases its
results Oct. 22. But Searle is likely to post operating losses this year
and next, excluding one-time gains, analysts say. That prognosis looks
even worse when contrasted with Searle's 83% jump in income last year to a
record $170 million, including about $47 million in one-time gains.
Monsanto is expected to post third-quarter profit of about 45 cents a
share, or $56 million, about half of what it earned in the 1991 period.
Richard J. Mahoney, Monsanto's chairman and chief executive officer, says
he's confident that Searle's ills are temporary, not terminal. Monsanto
bought Searle, including its NutraSweet food-products unit, for $2.8
billion in 1985. It became the cornerstone of Monsanto's diversification
away from the boom-and-bust petrochemical business in the 1980s.
But recent actions taken by Dr. Sheldon Gilgore, Searle's chairman and
chief executive, speak louder than Mahoney's words, securities analysts
say. Gilgore, 60 years old, has disclosed in regulatory filings that on
June 1 he sold 48,700 Monsanto shares, or nearly three-fourths of his
holdings, with an indicated value of $3.2 million. When the sale was
disclosed, Monsanto said it was for personal reasons.
Monsanto shares were trading at slightly more than $65 at the time. Ten
days later, Monsanto told Wall Street analysts their earnings estimates
were too high, mainly because of losses at Searle. Monsanto's share price
has hovered in the mid to low 50s ever since. It was quoted at $52, up $1,
in late New York Stock Exchange trading yesterday.
"We can disagree with Dr. Gilgore's timing for sales of 75% of his
holdings in June as an insider, but the message confirms a poor prognosis
for Searle's earnings in 1992 and 1993," says Fred H. Siemer, a principal
of Chemical Research for Wall St., a research firm.
"This is such an ethical lapse, it's staggering," says Paul Leming, an
analyst with Kidder, Peabody & Co., referring to the timing of Gilgore's
stock sale. In a recent research report, he told customers, "now is not
the time to throw in the towel on Searle -- (maybe on Searle's management,
but not on the company)."
Gilgore has become Wall Street's scapegoat of choice for Searle's losses.
Many analysts have been predicting his imminent removal, or at least
reassignment, since Monsanto in mid-September postponed a regularly
scheduled meeting of analysts and top Searle executives until December. As
Wall Street reasoning goes, the delay gives Monsanto time to shake up
Searle and present a coherent plan.
Calls to Gilgore were referred to Monsanto headquarters. Formerly
president of Pfizer Inc., Gilgore joined Searle as president in 1986 and
was quickly promoted to chairman and chief executive officer. He is widely
credited with leading the turnaround of what was then a moribund drug
company.

SUBJ: Administration Again Asked To Begin Inquiry Into BNL Scandal
By Peter Truell
WASHINGTON -- Lawmakers investigating the Iraqi loan scandal are voicing
increasing frustration with the Justice Department, the White House and
the National Security Council over a pattern of providing partial and even
misleading information on the affair, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Sen. Howard Metzenbaum (D., Ohio), a member of the Senate Judiciary
Committee, yesterday wrote to Attorney General William Barr requesting
that he appoint an independent counsel to review the Banca Nazionale del
Lavoro case. Meanwhile, House Banking Committee Chairman Henry Gonzalez
wrote Barr yesterday urging him to resign because his department's
integrity "is clearly in question." He also urged him to appoint an
independent counsel to review the BNL matter.
The congressional complaints aren't new, but they come on the heels of
embarassing new disclosures about the way the Bush administration has
handled the case. The Central Intelligence Agency and the Justice
Department have become embroiled in a spat about who is responsible for
providing incomplete, and therefore misleading, information to the Atlanta
court trying the BNL case. The failure to provide full information and the
fingerpointing that has followed have fed allegations of a cover-up by the
Bush administration.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation, along with the CIA's internal
inspector general, are both investigating why the CIA report on the BNL
loans to Iraq omitted information related to the case.
Meanwhile, congressional investigators are complaining that the White
House and the National Security Council have been unwilling to provide
information or witnesses to the Congress.
Gonzalez has written the president to request documents and interviews
with White House and NSC staff members involved in making critical
decisions either relating to Iraq policy or to an administration review of
the BNL scandal. These requests have been stonewalled, according to
congressional investigators. In a letter to Gonzalez, a White House staff
member earlier this summer cited "longstanding practice of the executive
branch to decline requests for testimony by members of the President's
personal staff."
The Justice Department also has stonewalled many congressional requests
relating to the BNL case. It has cited the Atlanta court case along with
"national security" concerns, to explain its unwillingness to provide
information to the House Banking Committee.
The Attorney General earlier this year wrote to the House Judiciary
Committee rejecting a request for an independent counsel. Barr said then
that he believed the department's current investigations of the BNL matter
were sufficient to deal with the case. In addition, Barr told the House
panel that the department didn't believe that sufficiently senior
administration officials were involved to warrant an independent counsel.
In his letter to Barr yesterday, Gonzalez argued that recent disclosures
undercut those arguments. "The evidence is that high levels of the Justice
Department were in regular contact with the Italian government concerning
the BNL case," he said. These "same political levels of the department of
Justice were aware of the Italian government's desire for some `kind of
damage control,'" Gonzalez went on to say. "Political considerations" may
account for "delays in the BNL indictment, and even for the infamous CIA
report that intentionally misrepresented what was known about possible
involvement of BNL-Rome."

for a two-year period. Last week the Japan Bond Research
Institute also rated Haseko's registration a preliminary
Single-A-Minus.
Next week Haseko is expected to offer a total of 40
billion yen of bonds in the domestic market, underwriters
say. If the Tokyo-based condominium builder does offer bonds
it will be the first issue of the registration.

SUBJ: PARAMOUNT'S `BOB' RECEIVES ORDER FOR ADDITIONAL NINE EPISODES
HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- "Bob," the new hit comedy
series starring Bob Newhart from Steinkellners & Sutton Productions in
association with the Network Television Division of Paramount Pictures,

SUBJ: Japan Insolvencies -4: Labor-Related Failures Decline
Teikoku Data Bank said bubble insolvencies in September
came to 116 cases, up 15% from 101 cases the year before.
But the 577 cases of "recession" insolvencies due to
weak demand were up a sharp 88% from 307 cases the year
before. At 50.4% of total insolvencies, the weight of weak
demand in September's numbers was far above the 36.3% figure
for the year before.
The number of insolvencies tied to tight labor
conditions dropped to 31 cases, down 34% from 47 cases the
year before. September's total was down from 35 in August,
37 in July and 40 in June, reflecting an easing of tight
labor market conditions as Japan's economic slowdown has
dragged on.
Teikoku Data said the 7,522-employee total at insolvent
companies in September was 28% up from the year before.

SUBJ: NETMANAGE POSTS ON THE INTERNET ITS "WINDOWS SOCKET API" TCP/IP
STACK FOR GENERAL DEVELOPERS TESTING; BOLD MOVE FOR ACCEPTANCE OF NEW
STANDARD
CUPERTINO, Calif., Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- NetManage Inc. today posted
its developer pre-release of NEWT on the Internet. The TCP/IP
communications stack and development kit are fully compliant with the
Windows Sockets API Standard, previously called Winsock API.
Developers can now download NetManage's developer version of Windows
Sockets TCP/IP stack and test any application developed to this new
standard. Also provided are two test applications that test the TCP and
DP client and server functionality. Use of the tools is subject to
copyright and license limitation provided with the tools.
Dan Geisler, vice president of NetManage said, "By delivering the
pre-release version of our tools to all developers through immediate
downloading from the Internet, we can accelerate the acceptance of the
Windows Sockets API. By posting it this week, developers will be able to
perform testing before the official Windows Sockets compatibility testing
scheduled to take place next week in Mountain View, California."
Windows Sockets API
The new Windows Sockets API specification defines a standard interface
between a Microsoft Windows application and a PCP/IP protocol stack. The
specifications were previously known by the code name Winsock API.
The Windows Sockets API is based on NetManage's original specifications
that were submitted to the standards committee. The underlying
technology, including message-driven asynchronous- communications, was
first shipped by NetManage in September of 1990. NetManage provides a 100
percent Windows DLL (Dynamic Link Library) TCP/IP stack.
Applications developed using NEWT-SDK will be compatible with Windows
Sockets stacks from any other vendor. Starting today, developers need to
buy only one development kit to write applications to Windows Sockets
compliant stacks.
In addition to the Windows Socket, NEWT-SDK facilitates development using
the FTP, SMTP and SNMP DLLs.
Upgrade Path Available
Current users of NEWT TCP/IP software can upgrade to take full advantage
of the powerful new features of NEWT by purchasing the NEWT upgrade.
NEWT and NEWT-SDK run on both Windows 3.0 and 3.1.
The regular price of NEWT-SDK is $500 at a quantity of one. The price of
NEWT is $60 at a quantity of 100. Both products are now shipping.
NetManage Inc. develops, markets and supports network communications
tools for the Windows environment.

SUBJ: Sen. Fowler outlines positions on energy, environmental issues
WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Energy America, a coalition of environmental,
consumer, and sustainable-energy organizations, Wednesday released the
results of a comprehensive candidate questionnaire completed by both
President Bush and his Democratic challenger Bill Clinton, as well as the
results of similar surveys completed by Georgia candidate for the U.S.
Senate, Sen. Wyche Fowler.
``This country uses a disproportionate share of world energy supplies and
therefore generates large quantities of polluting emissions which go into
our atmosphere. This survey is important because there are definite
policy differences between the candidates this fall which could have a
major impact on the nation's sustainable- energy policies, the environment
and public health,'' said Kurt Ehrenberg of Energy America.
Candidates were asked their positions on global warming,
sustainable-energy initiatives, auto fuel economy, nuclear power,
renewable energy sources, federal transportation policy, and potential
drilling in the Alaska Wildlife Refuge for oil and natural gas.
Following are results of the Energy and the Environment: 1992 Senatorial
Candidate Questionnaire from Sen. Wyche Fowler (D-Ga.):
Please answer each question yes or no. Attach comments, if you
wish, to clarify yes or no response.
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. Do you favor raising the Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards for
new automobiles to at least 40 mpg by the year 2001?
YES
2. Do you support the `one-step licensing' process for nuclear power
plants that curtails public participation and accelerates their
construction and operation?
NO
I, along with Sen. Robert Graham (D-Fla.), offered an amendment to
the National Energy Security Act of 1992 which would have ensured
public participation in licensing of these facilities.
3. Do you favor:
A. Opening the Arctic Wildlife Refuge to oil and natural gas
development?
NO
B. Requiring double hull construction on all oil tankers
operating in U.S. waters or subject to U.S. jurisdiction
by the year 2000?
YES
4. Do you support committing the Department of Energy to a goal
of U.S. energy self-sufficiency through a shift in funding from
nuclear fission and fossil fuels to the development and
implementation of energy efficiency and renewable energy
technologies?
YES
5. Do you support the position of Senate Majority Leader George
Mitchell:
``Because of the potential dangers posed by nuclear power, the tremendous
expense and time involved in bringing new reactors on line and the
political and scientific difficulties involved with the disposal of
nuclear waste, I believe that the United States should not pursue the
construction of new nuclear power plants facilities.''
YES
In light of formidable challenges such as clean up, waste disposal
and safety of these facilities, I agree with this conclusion. I
further believe that we must be more aggressive in the areas of
conservation and renewable energy sources.
6. Do you support combating the environmental dangers posed by
global warming by:
A. Setting a goal of reducing carbon dioxide emissions by at
least 20 percent by the year 2000 through policies
emphasizing a shift toward energy efficiency and renewable
energy sources?
YES
B. Instituting a `carbon tax' on CO2 emissions from fossil
fuels?
COMMENT
I would have to review the specifics of the proposal as
well as the context in which it is put forth.
C. Accelerating the elimination of CFCs to a deadline of
Jan. 1, 1995?
YES
...if feasible
D. Initiating a large scale effort for development and
commercialization of solar/hydrogen fuel systems for
vehicles and power generation?
YES
7. Do you support the goals of the Sun Day 1992 Campaign of:
A. Reducing U.S. energy use by at least 10 percent by the
year 2010?
YES
B. Tripling the current contribution of renewable energy
technologies by 2010?
COMMENT
I authored the most sweeping renewables law to be enacted
recently and most of the efficiency and renewables
provisions now in the National Energy bill arise from the
aggressive timetable in my legislation.
8. Do you support the re-authorization and strict enforcement of the
Endangered Species Act even in cases where it would block energy
projects?
YES
I have consistently supported the Endangered Species Act.
9. Do you support:
A. The federal government forced siting of the proposed high
level radioactive waste facility at Yucca Mountain, Nev.?
COMMENT
We are currently proceeding with the site evaluation of
the location to determine its suitability. Once the
evaluation is complete, I plan to study the findings
carefully.
B. Operating the Waste Isolation Pilot Project near Carlsbad,
N.M.?
YES
...if all environmental requirements are met.
C. Current so-called `low level' radioactive waste policy
which shifts responsibility from the private generators of
radioactive waste to state governments?
COMMENT
Georgia is part of a Regional Compact with seven other
southeastern states to deal with waste disposal. The 1980
Waste Policy Act requires states to develop managment plans
and I cosponsored the most recent amendments to the act.
D. A comprehensive re-evaluation of U.S. policy in regard to
the storage and isolation (`disposal') of nuclear waste?
YES
E. The Below Regulatory Concern policies which deregulates
the disposal of some radioactive waste materials, certain

bikeways and other environmentally sound mass transit systems?
YES
12. Do you favor a ban on off shore oil drilling in environmentally
sensitive areas?
YES
13. Do you support protecting the rights of citizen groups to gather
information from and protect the identity of whistleblowers?
YES
14. Do you support the United States signing the global biodiversity
treaty, and taking a leading role in reaching international agreements and
proposing initiatives to restore and protect the global environment?
YES
End of questionnaire. Thank you for your cooperation.

SUBJ: Genes Play Role In Alcoholism In Women, Study Finds
By Ron Winslow
LOS ANGELES -- Genetic factors play the same important role in the
development of alcoholism in women as they do in men, a new study
suggests, The Wall Street Journal reported.
The report, based on a study of 1,030 sets of female twins, contradicts
widely held assumptions as well as previous research that social and
psychological factors are far more important than genetic makeup in
explaining why women become alcoholics.
"These results suggest that the biomedical community needs to rethink its
attitude toward alcohol and women," says Kenneth S. Kendler, of the
departments of psychiatry and human genetics at Medical College of
Virginia in Richmond.
By regarding such factors as marital unhappiness and loneliness as
overwhelming contributors to excess drinking in women, doctors may ignore
genetic influences that would enable them to detect a woman's
vulnerability to the disease before it became a major health problem, Dr.
Kendler says.
The study appears in today's Journal of the American Medical Association.
Kendler, who is the lead author of the report, also presented the findings
at the AMA's conference for science reporters here.
Alcoholism is one of the nation's most devastating public health
problems. About one in seven Americans have a serious drinking problem at
least once during their lives. When alcohol-related homicides, auto
accidents and other factors are accounted for, the disease is the fourth
leading killer in the U.S.
Men in the U.S. are about five times more likely than women to become
alcoholics, but among people in their 20s and 30s, the ratio is closer to
2 to 1, Kendler said, indicating that the disease is becoming a growing
problem for women.
Researchers have long known that alcoholism runs in families, but only
recently have they begun to look at experiences of twins and adopted
children to distinguish between genetic and shared social influences that
might explain why.
In the current study, Kessler and his colleagues conducted interviews
with both members of 1,030 sets of twins born from 1934 to 1971, using
among other things a standard diagnostic test for alcoholism. The
researchers said 590 of the pairs were identical twins, meaning they
shared the same genetic makeup, and 440 were fraternal, meaning some genes
are different.
The study found that 6.2% of the group had serious alcohol problems and
2.8% met standard diagnostic criteria for the disease but weren't
alcohol-dependent. Another 8.3% reported significant drinking problems,
but they didn't meet criteria for alcoholism.
If one member of a pair of identical twins suffered from serious
alcoholism, the study found, her twin sister was five times more likely
than non-alcoholic twins to have the same degree of illness. In fraternal
twins, the risk was about 1.5 times. This much higher risk among the
identical twins was similar across the three levels of the disease.
Using another statistical analysis, the researchers factored
family-related social factors and determined that the proportion of
genetic influence for alcoholism ranged from 50% to 61%, about the same as
a previous study estimated for men.
Kendler said the results mean that more women should be participants in
research efforts to identify genes that predispose people to the disease.
And he said they suggest that doctors should take careful family histories
of women patients since alcoholism, like most illnesses, is much easier to
treat or prevent when risk for the disease is detected early.

SUBJ: Gary Becker, Nobel Prize winner in Economic Sciences, is senior
fellow at the Hoover Institution
STANFORD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Gary Stanley Becker, senior fellow at
the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, has been awarded the Alfred
Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for 1992.
A university professor in the University of Chicago's Departments of
Economics and Sociology, Becker has been affiliated with the Hoover
Institution since 1973 when he was named to the Hoover Institution's
Domestic Studies Advisory Board. He was appointed a senior fellow at the
Hoover Institution in 1990.
A major force in the development of contemporary economic thinking,
Becker's innovative linking of empirical generalizations to a broader
theoretical framework extended the application of economic reasoning to
academic fields previously considered largely outside the scope of
economics.
His work has stimulated controversy and much additional study not only
among economists, but also by sociologists, anthropologists, political
scientists, demographers, criminologists, and biologists, thus
contributing an important step in the unification of the social sciences.
Becker is well-known for his work on labor economics and the economics of
the family, extending further than anyone previously the hypothesis of
rational behavior as the explanation of many social phenomena.
In A Treatise on the Family, he applies economic theory to some of the
consequential personal decisions that individuals make in life, such as
choosing a spouse or having children. He has also done precedent-setting
work in the field of discrimination, and his seminal book, ``The Economics
of Discrimination,'' is a standard in the discipline.
Commenting on Becker's receipt of the prize, Hoover Director John Raisian
said: ``My colleagues and I are extremely proud to have Gary Becker as a
Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution. Professor Becker is a true
pioneer in many fields, especially in areas of human capital and the
integration of economics with family and social behavior.
``He also is an outstanding teacher, and over the years he has been a
mentor to many students of economics, among whom I am pleased to count
myself.''
Becker earned a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Chicago in 1955
and served on its faculty until 1957, at which time he joined the Columbia
University faculty where he served until 1969. During the 1969-70
academic year, he was a Ford Foundation Visiting Professor of Economics at
the University of Chicago, after which he became a regular member of the
Chicago faculty.
A columnist for Business Week magazine, Becker is also an associate
member of the Institute for Fiscal and Monetary Policy for the Ministry of
Japan. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American
Philosophical Society, and the National Academy of Education. He is also a
fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the Econometric
Society, among other elected and professional societies.

SUBJ: A TOTAL OF 13.2 MILLION ELECTORS ENUMERATED AND ELIGIBLE TO VOTE IN
FEDERAL REFERENDUM
OTTAWA, Oct. 13 /CNW/ - Federal enumerators have gathered more than 13.2
million names in door-to-door enumeration, and preliminary voters' lists
are now compiled on computers in 220 ridings in nine provinces and two
territories (Quebec is holding its own vote under provincial law) for the
federal referendum.
``We've had a successful enumeration and are now reaching out to those
people who were missed by the door-to-door enumeration,'' said Mr.
Jean-Pierre Kingsley, Canada's Chief Electoral Officer. ``In one week,
more than 13.2 million names and addresses were entered into our
computers.''
Provincial and territorial totals for enumeration are as follows:
Newfoundland 386,856 Saskatchewan 645,244
New Brunswick 509,859 Alberta 1,627,089
Nova Scotia 639,892 N.W.T. 32,164
P.E.I. 91,098 British Columbia 2,074,947
Ontario 6,467,364 Yukon 16,480
Manitoba 720,764
The preparation of the voters' lists for this referendum is based on a
new system of computerizing the lists of electors developed specially by
Elections Canada, in cooperation with the private sector. SHL Systemhouse
was responsible for logistics and administration of the systems, Philips
Electronics provided the hardware, and ISM Corporation developed the
software.
The system, called Elections Canada Automated Production of Lists of
Electors (ECAPLE), facilitates the compilation of lists of electors and
will streamline the revision process which is about to begin. It should
be noted that the final list of electors prepared for this referendum can
be re-used as the preliminary list for the next federal election, if the
election is called within one year. This means that Elections Canada will
save the expense of enumerating voters a second time.
``We are proud of this new technology and are very pleased that it was so
professionally managed,'' said Mr. Kingsley. ``Our computers are now
completing the printing of Notice of Enumeration cards personally
addressed to each elector, which should arrive at homes by October 16. If
you don't receive this card, contact the Elections Canada office for your
riding immediately to guarantee your right to vote.''
Eligible electors living in urban polling divisions who want to vote in
the referendum must have their names on the list of electors by October
19.
In rural areas, electors can verify if their name appears on the voters'
list when it is posted in public places. Rural voters whose names are not
on the voters' list may still cast their ballots on Referendum Day if a
registered elector in the same polling division vouches for them at the
polling station.
Mr. Kingsley reassured electors that the information on the voters' lists
is protected, and stressed that under the Referendum Act, the voters' list
may only be used for electoral purposes. Any person who misuses the list
is guilty of an offense and is liable to a fine and/or imprisonment.
Elections Canada is the non-partisan agency responsible for the conduct
of the federal referendum.

SUBJ: Buyer Of Failed Texas S&Ls Under `Southwest Plan' Sues U.S
By Christi Harlan
A company that acquired 11 failed Texas thrifts in a government-assisted
transaction in 1988 charged in a lawsuit that thrift regulators had failed
to disclose the depth of the institutions' problems, The Wall Street
Journal reported.
The suit is believed to be the first to make such allegations against
regulators who crafted the 1988 thrift sales, which were arranged under
the so-called Southwest Plan. The Southwest Plan transactions typically
included immediate cash infusions by the government, as well as guarantees
of future cash payments to protect the acquirers from losses on risky
loans and repossessed real estate held by the acquired thrifts.
Those concessions by the government prompted criticism in Congress and
elsewhere that the Southwest Plan transactions were overly lucrative for
the acquirers, which include such companies as Temple-Inland Inc. of
Diboll, Texas, and such Wall Street financiers as Lewis Ranieri and Ronald
O. Perelman. Until yesterday, none of the acquirers had complained.
The suit was filed in the U.S. Claims Court in Washington, D.C., by Adam
Corp., a holding company based in Bryan, Texas. The privately held company
was mainly in the cable-television business until four years ago today,
when it completed the acquisition of the 11 failed thrifts that are now
known as AmWest Savings Association.
The company alleges that thrift regulators in Washington, D.C., and Texas
didn't disclose substantial loan problems at the largest of the failed
thrifts, Olney Savings Association of Olney, Texas, which held about a
third of the $3.76 billion in total assets of the 11 thrifts.
Adam also alleges that the regulators withheld information about problems
with some of Olney's former officers. Those ex-officers have been accused
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., in a separate lawsuit, of
directing improper loans that cost the thrift at least $50 million.
One of Olney's former officers was installed as chairman of the new
thrift, AmWest, for about nine months before thrift regulators told Adam
that they wouldn't approve his hiring, the company said in its complaint.
Like other failed Texas thrifts, Olney was allegedly plagued by
sweetheart loans involving officers and favored borrowers. Nonetheless, at
one point thrift regulators considered allowing Olney to become an
acquirer under the Southwest Plan. Adam claims that situation contributed
to the alleged lack of disclosure by regulators.
Spokesmen for the FDIC and the Office of Thrift Supervision, the two
agencies that inherited thrift-regulatory duties in 1989, said they hadn't
seen the suit and couldn't comment.
Adam, which initially invested $80 million in the thrifts, asks that the
claims court find that the government breached the contract that sealed
the 1988 acquisitions. The company is seeking unspecified damages to cover
its losses to date and for the right to shift responsibility for losses on
certain loans to the government. The amount of those loans wasn't
disclosed.
AmWest's general counsel, Mark Mesec of Dallas, said the thrift "remains
hopeful that this matter can be resolved between the parties without the
need for active litigation." AmWest said it had about $2.8 billion in
assets as of Sept. 30, down about 35% from the $4.3 billion it had at the
time of the acquisitions.

SUBJ: Topps Insiders Have Engaged In Heavy Sales
By Alexandra Peers
NEW YORK -- Has Topps Co.'s stock price topped out?
There has been heavy insider selling in the shares of Topps, the
Brooklyn, N.Y., manufacturer of baseball cards and Bazooka bubble gum,
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commmission show, The Wall Street
Journal reported.
The sales come at a time when the company is involved in a fierce battle
for market share, according to Wall Street analysts and baseball card
dealers. While Topps has had the dominant brand name in baseball cards for
decades, profit has been eroded by competition from "premium" card
manufacturers, who lured collectors away with heavier paper stock and
holographic cards. And the company is just about to take on Marvel
Entertainment Group through a new comic book subsidiary.
Topps President John J. Langdon has sold 100,000 Topps shares -- all of
his shares in the company -- since June 23, according to SEC filings,
although he continues to hold options representing 587,000 shares. He
declined to comment; a spokeswoman said Langdon sold the stock to purchase
a home.
His sales follow sales earlier this year of a total of 628,860 shares by
four other Topps insiders, two of whom are principals of the investment
firm Forstmann, Little & Co., which held a majority stake in the company
but distributed it to limited partners late last year. All the insiders
sold their shares at prices ranging from $15.375 to $19. Theodore
Forstmann, a director of Topps, has sold 539,085 shares so far this year.
Through a spokeswoman, he said that he still retains more than 500,000
shares.
There has been little movement in Topps shares since the insider sales,
or for several months, for that matter. Topps began the year strongly,
hitting its 1992 high of $20.25 on Jan. 23, but backed off in February. It
has since traded in the $15 to $17.50 range. In over-the-counter trading,
Topps shares closed yesterday at $16, down 25 cents.
There was a spate of positive analysts' reports on the stock last summer,
with Wall Street hoping that sales of the company's line of trading cards
based on the film "Batman Returns" would equal the blockbuster sales of
cards from the first movie.
But the less-than-stellar reception for both the movie sequel and the
cards, weak sales of collectible cards in general, and the recently
announced merger of a prime Topps competitor, Fleer Corp., with Marvel has
prompted some analysts to reconsider their endorsements. On Sept. 17,
Alex. Brown & Sons Inc. cut its recommendation on the stock from "buy" to
"neutral."
Topps Chairman Arthur T. Shorin -- who says he holds two million shares
and hasn't trimmed his holdings -- doesn't deny that the company faces
stiff competition. But he says the overall weak market for sports cards
and the resulting shakeout of card manufacturers will ultimately benefit
Topps, as dealers remove lesser-known names from their shelves. Moreover,
Topps' 1993 line of baseball cards will be redesigned "premium cards at a
popular price" of 69 cents a pack, compared with the current price for the
basic line of 55 cents a pack, he says.
He added that Topps had considerable success with its introduction last
year of deluxe, plastic-coated "Topps Stadium Club" football and baseball
cards, which sell for a pricey $1.50 to $2 a pack.
But the Stadium cards can't boost Topps' bottom line that much, says
Robert Wynne, who covers the sports card industry for Tuff Stuff, a
hobbyist's magazine based in Richmond, Va. They're valued by collectors
precisely because they have relatively modest print runs of about one
million copies of each card, he says. The standard Topps baseball cards
aren't that popular with investment-minded collectors, according to Wynne,
but they make up the bulk of Topps's business, with printings of about six
million each.

SUBJ: Japan Powerbroker Kanemaru -2: Political Fallout Unknown
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Shin Kanemaru formally announced his
intention to resign from parliament at a meeting of the
ruling Liberal Democratic Party's (LDP) largest faction,
the Takeshita faction, Kyodo News Service and Nihon Hoso
Kyokai (NHK) reported Wednesday.
Kanemaru's resignation comes in the face of growing
criticism from both the public and LDP members after he
was let off with a light fine for accepting an illegal
500-million-yen political donation.
Kanemaru was widely considered the most influential
politician in the LDP, eclipsing even former Prime
Minister Noboru Takeshita, the ostensible leader of the
Takeshita faction. Kanemaru's support is widely believed
to be the key factor that enabled the current prime
minister, Kiichi Miyazawa, to get office.
There is concern that Kanemaru's resignation will lead
to the break up of the Takeshita faction, with unknown
consequences for the political balance of power in the
ruling party.

FRANKFURT -(AP-DJ)--Germany's August M3 money supply
growth rate was left unrevised at an annualized 9.0% from

The Bundesbank report often contains a revised version
of the rate given the previous month. This month's report
didn't contain any fresh commentary.
M3, a broad measure of money supply, has become one of
Germany's most closely followed economic indicators. It
includes cash in circulation, most forms of savings as well
as sight deposits and time deposits of less than four years.
September data is expected to be released sometime next

SUBJ: SafeCard Sues IRS For `Warrantless' Searches
By Glenn Ruffenach
SafeCard Services Inc. has filed suit against agents of the Internal
Revenue Service, charging that the agents turned an accountant against the
company and conducted a "covert campaign of unconstitutional and
warrantless searches and seizures."
The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., marks
the latest skirmish in a four-year battle between the company and the IRS,
The Wall Street Journal reported. The offices of SafeCard, which notifies
credit-card issuers about lost or stolen cards, were searched by the IRS
in October 1988. But the company has maintained its innocence and argues,
in its suit, that the agency's actions have caused considerable damage to
SafeCard's business and reputation. The company, according to the suit,
has never been accused of any tax-law violations.
A spokesman for the IRS in Fort Lauderdale declined to comment on the
suit and refused to say whether the company is currently the subject of
any inquiry or investigation.
According to court documents, filed last Friday, Ernest A. Varvoutis III,
a tax accountant, was hired in May 1988 by Halmos & Co., which was owned
by Peter Halmos and Steven Halmos, brothers and co-founders of SafeCard.
Within two weeks of his hiring, according to the suit, Varvoutis told the
IRS that he suspected Halmos & Co. and the Halmoses of violating federal
tax laws. Over the next several months, Varvoutis allegedly provided the
IRS with documents from the company and met a second time with an IRS
agent.
At this second meeting, according to the suit, Varvoutis said he wanted
to resign from Halmos & Co. But the IRS, according to the suit, "persuaded
him to continue his employment in order to assist the IRS in a covert
investigation."
Accordingly, over the next month, Varvoutis allegedly provided the IRS
with financial documents, computer diskettes, insurance records, tax
returns and other information taken from Halmos & Co., the Halmoses and
SafeCard. In October 1988, the IRS obtained a warrant to search SafeCard,
which was then based in Fort Lauderdale.
Since the IRS search, however, SafeCard, according to the suit, has
continued to be suspected of wrongdoing by Wall Street analysts and
others. The suit seeks compensatory damages of at least $48 million and
punitive damages of $10 million.
Varvoutis, who did resign from Halmos & Co. just before the search, was
unavailable for comment yesterday. According to a second suit filed last
Friday by the Halmoses themselves against the IRS, Varvoutis has testified
that he "assisted the federal government" in their investigation of the
Halmoses and that his "actions were performed at the request of the
federal government."
An attorney representing the Halmoses, Stanley S. Arkin, of Chadbourne &
Parke in New York, declined to answer questions about the suit, other than
to say: "We stand by the complaint, and we can prove every bit of it."
In composite trading yesterday on the New York Stock Exchange, SafeCard,
now based in Cheyenne, Wyo., closed unchanged at $8.50.

may be close to achieving their goal of stable prices (see 4204).
-- Fed Chairman Greenspan also said the Federal Reserve Board's push to
reduce inflation has caused a drop in prices of some real assets, a
phenomenon that has hurt financial institutions (see 4203).
-- U.K. ministers are still considering the possibility of a big interest
rate cut soon, The Times of London reported (see 4210).
-- Credit supplied by intermediaries to the Australian private sector
rose 0.4% in August from July but fell 1.5% in the 12 months to August
(see 4201).

greater local control to its overseas operations, will promote two
Japanese to lead its Asian subsidiary early next year (see 4202).

didn't experience severe losses on interest-only mortgage-backed
securities, but that "individual and institutional investors may have
suffered more serious losses" (see 4224).
-- The BOJ is buying 400 billion yen of Japanese government bonds through
two-month repurchase agreements to add that cash to the local money market
Tuesday (see 4038).
-- U.S. Treasurys are lower in Tokyo, with the long bond at 96-18, down
2/32 from New York late Tuesday (see 4041). Debt futures ended flat at the
CBT Tuesday evening, with the December bond at 103-18 (see 4101). Japanese
bonds are firmer (see 4153).

SUBJ: Suit Claims Amex, Specialist Executed A Canceled Order
By Jonathan M. Moses
NEW YORK -- A Pennsylvania investment partnership charged that the
American Stock Exchange and one of its specialist firms carried out an
options order for American Airlines' parent company even though the order
had been canceled, The Wall Street Journal reported.
In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court here, Market Street L.P. cited
trading in October 1989 in options on AMR Corp. At the time, AMR was the
subject of takeover rumors that eventually proved false.
The lawsuit details a trail of harried securities trading that was driven
by those rumors. Market Street, based in Radnor, Pa., placed an order to
sell 500 put options in American Airlines stock. A put option on a
company's stock gives the buyer the right to sell company shares at a
given price. In Market Street's case, the put option allowed it to sell
the underlying AMR stock a month later at $85 a share. At the time, AMR,
which trades on the New York Stock Exchange, was trading at nearly $100 a
share. The order allegedly had gone unfulfilled for 50 minutes when Market
Street says it was canceled and replaced with an order to sell just 100
puts.
Market Street now alleges that the specialist firm in American Airlines
options, known as Aegis Specialist Joint Account, ignored the cancel order
and bought the 500 put options for its own account. Aegis -- jointly owned
by Englander Capital Corp., M.J. Weinburg & Co. and L. William Alter & Co.
-- made the purchase while it knew that trading in the underlying AMR
stock would be halted as a result of the rumors, the lawsuit contends. The
three firms are named in the suit.
When trading reopened, AMR stock had fallen well below the $85 strike
price. Market Street says it had a loss of $6 million as a result of the
first order not being canceled. It says it already has recovered through
arbitration $544,000 from the broker who placed the order, and is seeking
the rest, and punitive damages, from the specialist firm and the American
Stock Exchange.
A spokesman for the American Stock Exchange said it does not comment on
pending litigation. Martin Weinburg of M.J. Weinburg & Co. declined to
comment. Principals of the other two firms that made up Aegis could not be
reached to comment.

SUBJ: Report on new schedules presented to board
OAKLAND, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BART officials Tuesday presented their
detailed analysis of the effects of the new, faster train schedules to the
board of directors at its Engineering and Operations Committee meeting.
The board asked for the report following implementation of the new
schedule.
``We went through some trying times that first month,'' said James
Gallagher, BART's assistant general manager for operations. ``But we
shook the bugs out and our on-time performance numbers have been
consistently above our normally acceptable standard. The `minutes of
delay' factor, for example, is well within the range that we've seen over
the past two years.''
On July 22, BART instituted the most significant changes in its train
schedules in a dozen years. The new schedules decreased travel time by
some 10 percent; made it possible to vastly improve train-to-train
transfers in the evenings by cutting the waiting time one-third, and
enabled BART to achieve operating efficiencies that translate into
increased passenger service.
Gallagher said tests conducted since the board of directors ordered a
review 60 days ago showed the trains' traction motors performing as they
were designed to perform and that the anticipated service improvements
have been implemented and are working successfully.
Meanwhile, on another front, BART has seen a 3.7 percent growth in
ridership above forecast since the new schedule went into effect.

SUBJ: Monsanto Pressed -2-: Searle Executive's Stock Sale
Mahoney says Gilgore's June 1 stock sale "had nothing to do with his
level of confidence" in Searle's future. He won't comment further except
to cite Monsanto's original statement that the sale was for personal
reasons. As for postponing the analysts' meeting with Searle, Mahoney says
it wouldn't have been "productive" for Searle until executives had a
firmer grip on the division's cost structure.
Other drug companies also suffered on the earnings front in this year's
first half as widespread consumer resistance kept them from raising prices
on drugs. And the decline in Calan sales in the face of generic
competition will eventually be offset by sales of new products such as
Maxaquin, an antibiotic launched this spring, Mahoney says.
He says Searle, given a "decent" economic recovery and approvals of new
drugs, will be able to reach its goal of $3 billion in sales by 1995, or
nearly double last year's sales of $1.53 billion.
But the crippling costs of bringing products to market will continue to
hammer Searle's earnings, analysts say.
Several analysts argue that the company should join the latest trend in
the drug business and consider forming a joint venture for all of Searle,
or at least certain product lines.
A joint venture would allow Searle to share product-development and
launch costs that can exceed $150 million, says Robert Reitzes, a C.J.
Lawrence Inc. analyst. Du Pont Co., despite its size, cited new-drug costs
as the reason for shifting its drug business into a venture with Merck &
Co. in 1990.
Mahoney says Searle can go it alone. Getting 100% of the earnings from
new drugs in the pipeline "is much more important than the one-time cost
savings" of a joint venture, he says.
Monsanto's great expectations for Searle are overblown, many analysts
say. The huge promotional push for Maxaquin comes as other drug companies
are scaling back their marketing costs and sales forces. The antibiotic
also is competing against a "reasonably crowded therapeutic class; it's
not unique," notes Ronald Nordmann, a PaineWebber Inc. drug-stock analyst.
He estimates Searle's operating income will reach about $120 million by
1995, on sales of about $2.3 billion.
Mahoney is optimistic about Monsanto's overall prospects. At their annual
planning session late last month, directors focused on his oft-stated goal
of reaching a 20% return on equity by the mid-1990s. The company, though,
has a long way to go: This year's return on equity is expected to be about
11%.
To reach the 20% level, "we have to enlarge the Searle component of our
business and manage our existing businesses superbly," he says. The
company's other operations, he adds, are trying to pare expenses, notably
in research and overhead costs for bovine growth hormone, which awaits
Food and Drug Administration approval, and for Simplesse, the company's
fat-substitute product. The chemical unit isn't expected to see much
improvement until the broader economy rebounds.

SUBJ: Administration - BNL Inquiry -2-: Metzenbaum Letter To Barr
Metzenbaum, in his letter to Barr, raised similar concerns about the
handling of the BNL case, mentioning "allegations that a CIA front
organization was involved in the loans to Iraq." If this is proved, he
wrote, "We would effectively be faced with a case of secret U.S.
government involvement in arms sales to Iraq, as well as a possible
cover-up."
The Justice Department, meantime, issued a statement relating to the
FBI's investigation of the delivery of incomplete CIA documents to the
Atlanta court. The statement said that there wasn't any disagreement
between the department and the FBI concerning the conduct of that
investigation. Barr instructed the FBI to conduct that inquiry, and the
FBI and the department prosecutors are "working closely as a team."
Meanwhile, further evidence is emerging of the Justice Department's
apparent unwillingness to pursue foreign nationals allegedly involved in
the billions of dollars of illicit bank loans. In a March 27, 1990, memo,
Ray Rukstele, U.S. attorney for Atlanta, said that following a Justice
Department review of the BNL case, Deputy Assistant Attorney General
Laurence Urgenson told him that he "did not feel there would be any merit
in interviewing Iraqi government officials."
To further complicate the matter, while the FBI investigates the
CIA-Justice Department handling of the BNL prosecution, the Justice
Department's office of professional responsibility is investigating
possible ethical violations by FBI Director William Sessions. Sessions
released a statement welcoming the inquiry and expressing confidence in
its outcome. The ethics investigation concerns allegations that Sessions
may have used a FBI plane and car for personal use and that an aide may
have abused her FBI authority.
In addition, the Justice Department inquiry is investigating allegations
that Sessions' wife tried to direct a $100,000 government contract to a
family friend, according to an Associated Press report. The contract at
issue covered the installation of a security system at the Sessions's home
in Washington.

SUBJ: Australian Housing-Finance Demand Waned In Sept, ABA Says
MELBOURNE -(AP-DJ)--Australian banks saw a "marginal"
reduction in demand for housing finance in September from
August, but the decline doesn't suggest the nation's
housing recovery has peaked, according to the Australian
Bankers' Association (ABA).
In a formal statement, the Association's Executive
Director Alan Cullen said Wednesday that "banks advise
some marginal easing in the level of commitments from the
strong August level in September, but no more than is
accounted for by month-to-month volatility."
"The latest figures don't indicate that the housing
recovery is topping out yet," Cullen said.
Cullen was commenting following news from the
Australian Bureau of Statistics that the number of
housing-finance approvals in Australia rose 8.3% in August
from July on a seasonally adjusted basis. The value of
housing-finance commitments rose 12.9% in August.

SUBJ: Japan's Sept. Steel Output Falls 9.3% From Year Ago
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Japan's steel production in September
slipped 9.3% from the same month a year earlier to a
total of 8.07 million metric tons, the Japan Iron and
Steel Federation reported Wednesday.
The tempo of decline in steel output from year-earlier
levels in September was less than 10% for the first time
in 10 months.
Nonetheless, September marked the 14th month in a row
in which output remained below year-earlier levels. The
latest figure was the lowest level for September in five
years. In September 1987, steel production was 8.01
million metric tons, when the yen's strong appreciation
hurt exports by making Japanese steel products more
expensive in foreign currency terms.
The latest figure was unchanged from the previous
month's level.
Holding back the pace of growth in the nation's steel
output has been steel makers' ongoing efforts to curb
production in an attempt to tame inventories. Japan's
economic slowdown has cut into demand from weak sectors
such as the auto and electric machinery industries, thus
raising steel stockpiles.
With the latest figure factored in, Japan's steel
output in the July-September quarter came to 24.30
million metric tons, down 11% from a year earlier. The
latest quarter's output, the third in a row of
year-on-year decline, was in line with the official
forecast of 24.30 million metric made by the Ministry of
International Trade and Industry (MITI). The quarterly
figure was off 0.2% from a the previous quarter.

SUBJ: Boesky, Siegel Get More Time To Prepare For Insider Case
The civil insider-trading case against ex-arbitrager Ivan Boesky and
former investment banker Martin Siegel had been set to go to trial Monday,
but instead will begin Oct. 26, The Wall Street Journal reported.
The date was postponed after the lead defendant in the case, Kidder,
Peabody & Co., agreed over the weekend to settle with Maxus Energy Corp.
by paying $165 million. That settlement leaves Boesky and Siegel as the
only defendants.
Maxus alleges that its predecessor company, Diamond Shamrock Corp., paid
too much for Natomas Co. in 1983 because of insider trading. Kidder
Peabody and Siegel were advising Diamond Shamrock on the deal, and Maxus
alleges that Siegel's tips prompted Boesky to buy Natomas stock, driving
its price up.
Boesky and Siegel contend that Diamond Shamrock wasn't hurt by the stock
purchases, although its shareholders may have been.
The trial, in state court in Dallas, is expected to last about a week,
compared with the six to eight weeks that were expected had Kidder Peabody
remained in the case. Kidder Peabody is a unit of General Electric Co.
Siegel's lawyer said last week that his client couldn't afford to be
represented during the full trial. The lawyer, Patrick Guillot of Dallas,
couldn't be reached yesterday to say whether the prospect of a shorter
trial has changed Siegel's plan.

SUBJ: GROUP LAUNCHES CAMPAIGN ACROSS CANADA TO HIGHLIGHT 500 YEARS OF
NATIVE STRUGGLE, SPECIAL FOCUS ON GUATEMALA: DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE
TORONTO, Oct. 13 /CNW/ - As the world marks the 500th anniversary of the
``discovery'' of the Americas and ponders what befell native people in its
wake, Canadians are being urged to join a national action to back efforts
by native people in Guatemala to regain their land and end years of
repression.
The campaign is called ``FROM DOMINATION TO LIBERATION''. It has been
launched by DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE, the international Catholic development
agency which supported over 10,000 projects in 60 countries in 25 years.
It's the third campaign in as many years in the DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE
program, ``Rebuilding the Americas'', which has examined the staggering
debt load of poor countries and the wretched conditions trapping millions
in big city slums in the Americas. This year's focus is native people's
efforts to end the effects of 500 years of colonization, and their
struggle for their rights.
People are being asked by DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE to send a message of
support to the National Council of Displaced Peoples of Guatemala. Almost
entirely indigenous, it is demanding that land seized be returned and for
an end to all military control of native communities.
Some 1.5 million mostly native people are now homeless, another 45,000
live in UN refugee camps in southern Mexico, and some 200,000 others have
fled to Mexico, Canada, Europe, Australia, and the U.S.

SUBJ: U.S. SUPREME COURT ISSUES A SECOND MAJOR RULING IN FAVOR OF
INDEPENDENT SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- For the second time in four
months, the United States Supreme Court has issued a major ruling in favor
of independent service organizations bringing antitrust suits against
manufacturers of complex durable equipment. Virtual Maintenance Inc., one
of the leading members of Independent Service Network International
(ISNI), the largest trade organization of independent computer and medical
equipment maintainers, has today prevailed in its petition to the Supreme
Court to vacate an appellate court decision which had taken away from
Virtual the $25.3-million verdict which it obtained against Prime Computer
Inc. in October 1990.
The earlier Supreme Court decision, Eastman Kodak Co. v. Image Technical
Service, et al., held last June that the antitrust laws could apply to
aftermarkets, such as the maintenance of complex durable equipment like
copiers or computers. That case, however, had been decided by a judge in
a summary judgment proceeding before a jury trial could occur. The
Supreme Court sent it back to the trial court for a jury trial, which has
still not yet occurred.
In contrast, the Virtual case has gone through a full jury trial.
therefore, the Virtual case goes a step beyond Kodak because no further
trial need occur. The Supreme Court sent the Virtual case back to the
appellate court, not the trial court, so that the appellate court can
reconsider its now vacated decision in light of the Kodak opinion.
Both Kodak and Virtual involved an antitrust practice called tying. Kodak
required purchasers of its unique spare parts also to purchase photocopier
maintenance from Kodak, that is, Kodak "tied" maintenance purchases to
spare parts purchases. Prime required purchasers of its unique software
updates also to purchase computer maintenance from Prime.
"We are delighted that one of our members has had the courage and energy
to fight this case through to the Supreme Court," said Claudia Betzner,
executive director of the ISNI. "This decision shows that the Kodak case
was not a fluke and that our legal system will protect service companies
in competition with manufacturers."
ISNI's general counsel, Ronald S. Katz of the law firm of Coudert
Brothers, stated that "These two major decisions preserve competition in
aftermarkets. Because most economic activity now occurs in aftermarkets
-- like blades for razors, film for cameras, or service for computers or
cars -- these opinions will have a tremendous positive impact on our
economy.

Washington County, but for the entire Delta region," said Mississippi Gov.
Kirk Fordice. "These 1,000 jobs are a great boost to the area's
employment and economy, and where is it more appropriate for Fruit of the
Loom to locate its latest facility, than in the heart of the cotton
growing region. We are delighted that the company chose to expand its
Mississippi operations."

SUBJ: RPT:Japan's Sept. Steel Output Falls 9.3% From Yr Ago
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Japan's steel production in September
slipped 9.3% from the same month a year earlier to a
total of 8.07 million metric tons, the Japan Iron and
Steel Federation reported Wednesday.
The tempo of decline in steel output from year-earlier
levels in September was less than 10% for the first time
in 10 months.
Nonetheless, September marked the 14th month in a row
in which output remained below year-earlier levels. The
latest figure was the lowest level for September in five
years. In September 1987, steel production was 8.01
million metric tons, when the yen's strong appreciation
hurt exports by making Japanese steel products more
expensive in foreign currency terms.
The latest figure was unchanged from the previous
month's level.
Holding back the pace of growth in the nation's steel
output has been steel makers' ongoing efforts to curb
production in an attempt to tame inventories. Japan's
economic slowdown has cut into demand from weak sectors
such as the auto and electric machinery industries, thus
raising steel stockpiles.
With the latest figure factored in, Japan's steel
output in the July-September quarter came to 24.30
million metric tons, down 11% from a year earlier. The
latest quarter's output, the third in a row of
year-on-year decline, was in line with the official
forecast of 24.30 million metric made by the Ministry of
International Trade and Industry (MITI). The quarterly
figure was off 0.2% from a the previous quarter.

SUBJ: N.Z. Sovereign Debt Rating Will Be Unchanged Says Moody's
WELLINGTON -(AP-DJ)--Moody's Investors Service Inc.
said Wednesday it will issue within a month a review of New
Zealand's sovereign debt rating and the country's
classification will be "unchanged."
A spokesperson for the U.S.-based rating agency said
the review is an annual exercise Moody's goes through to
update its commentary.
"The rating is unchanged," the spokesperson said.
New Zealand's sovereign debt rating by Moody's at
present is Double-A-3.
News that Moody's rating of New Zealand will be
unchanged is in line with market expectations.
"(Finance Minister Ruth) Richardson alluded to the
fact that it would be unchanged on her return from a recent
trip to New York," said Bankers Trust New Zealand Ltd.
associate treasury director John McFarlane.
"The grading comes down to looking at a country's
current account situation as an indicator of its ability to
meet ongoing commitments," McFarlane said.
"Noone expects an upgrade yet because a recent
improvement in New Zealand's current account deficit has
not been strong enough to warrant an upgrade," McFarlane
said.
"On the other hand, the current account has been
improving strongly enough so as to guarantee there won't be
a downgrade," he said.

SUBJ: N.Z. Sovereign Debt -2: Confirmation Seen As Favorable
According to latest data, New Zealand recorded a current
account deficit of $29 million New Zealand in the second
quarter of 1992, narrowing from a deficit of $125 million NZ
in the first quarter of 1992, which in turn narrowed from a
deficit of $346 million NZ in the fourth quarter of 1991.
McFarlane said financial markets should react favorably
to the confirmation of the debt rating by Moody's.
"Reaffirmation of the government's rating is certainly
not going to be bad news," McFarlane said.
The other main sovereign debt rating agency, Standard &
Poor's Corp. at present rates New Zealand government debt
Double-A-minus, which is in line with the Moody's rating.

SUBJ: Tokyo Stocks End Lower -2; Nikkei 17,344.03, Dn 0.84%
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Tokyo stocks ended mixed Wednesday,
but the Nikkei index plunged nearly 300 points during
the final hour of trading to end at its session low.
Dealers attributed the sell-off at day's end to
index-linked arbitrage, and said the fall was only
coincidental with top Japanese powerbroker Shin
Kanemaru's announcement that he would resign from
parliament to take responsability for a recent scandal.
The Nikkei, which tracks 225 selected issues, fell
146.64 points to 17,344.03. The index rose 188.66
points Tuesday. The Nikkei closed the 1991 trading year
at 22,983.77.
Brian Tobin, general manager of equity sales at S.G.
Warburg Securities (Japan) Inc., said participants are
disappointed with the failure of positive news to emerge
from U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan's
meetings with Japanese monetary officials during the
week. He said the market was largely anticipating at
least "some whisper of a concerted (U.S.-Japanese) rate
cut."
Advancing issues narrowly outnumbered retreating
issues 494 to 414, while 183 issues were unchanged.
Volume on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock
Exchange was estimated at 250 million shares, up from
204.98 million shares Tuesday.

SUBJ: RETIRED SAN FRANCISCAN WINS $3.28 MILLION ON SUPER LOTTO
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Robert Dye, 72, a retired
merchant seaman from San Francisco, claimed his $3.28 million Super Lotto
prize today which he won last Wednesday's Oct. 7 draw.
Dye found out he won last Thursday when he read the winning numbers in
the newspaper. He immediately knew he had won at least $5. He compared
his ticket to the numbers in the paper and discovered he had won the
jackpot prize.
With his winnings, Dye plans to pay off his debts and continue to rent
his home. He has not yet made other plans. He will receive $164,000 each
year for 20 years (before taxes).
The numbers which Dye played were his favorite numbers which he has been
playing since the Lotto game started in 1986. The winning ticket was a $5
ticket purchased at Harvey's Place on 5th Street in San Francisco. The
retailer will receive a $16,400 bonus commission for selling the winning
ticket.
The Lottery Act requires that 50 percent of total sales is returned to
players as prizes and a minimum of 34 percent goes to public education.
The remaining 16 percent goes to retailer commissions (6.5 percent) and
Lottery operations costs (9.5 percent). The Lottery's contribution makes
up approximately 2 to 3 percent of the total public education budget. In
seven years, the Lottery has contributed over $5 billion to education.

SUBJ: Japan's Trade Surplus-2: Grows For 21st Consecutive Month
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Japan's trade surplus for September,
before adjustment for seasonal factors, was $12.07 billion,
up 25% from the $9.66 billion surplus for the corresponding
month a year earlier, the Finance Ministry reported Monday.
September was the 21st consecutive month for which
Japan's trade surplus was bigger than in the corresponding
month a year earlier. The acceleration of the surplus is a
politically sensitive issue between Japan and the U.S. and
other trading partners.
The latest surplus is in line with the average of
forecasts by analysts that Dow Jones surveyed last
week. They saw the surplus at $12.3 billion, reflecting
exports of $30.4 billion and imports of $18.1 billion.
Japan's unadjusted surplus with the U.S. in September
grew 5.8% to $4.84 billion from $4.58 billion a year ago for
a year-on-year increase for the sixth month in a row. In
March, the surplus with the U.S. shrank from year-earlier
levels for the first time in eight months.
The finance ministry also released trade data Wednesday
for the first half of fiscal 1992. Japan's unadjusted trade
surplus during the April-September period grew 32% to $52.46
billion from $39.68 billion in the corresponding term in
the previous fiscal year. Japan's unadjusted surplus with
the U.S. during the six-month period increased 22% to $21.16
billion from $17.37 billion a year earlier.

SUBJ: Sen. Glenn Outlines Positions on Energy, Environmental Issues
(ADVANCE) WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Energy America, a coalition of
environmental, consumer, and sustainable energy organizations, today
released the results of a comprehensive candidate questionnaire completed
by both President Bush and his Democratic challenger Bill Clinton, as well
as the results of similar surveys completed by Ohio candidate for the U.S.
Senate, John Glenn.
"This country uses a disproportionate share of world energy supplies and
therefore generates large quantities of polluting emissions which go into
our atmosphere. This survey is important because there are definite
policy differences between the candidates this fall which could have a
major impact on the nation's sustainable energy policies, the environment
and public health," said Kurt Ehrenberg of Energy America.
Candidates were asked their positions on global warming, sustainable
energy initiatives, auto fuel economy, nuclear power, renewable energy
sources, federal transportation policy, and potential drilling in the
Alaska Wildlife Refuge for oil and natural gas.

SUBJ: Bonn Contemplates -2: German Fears May Endanger Treaty
"If the British fail to ratify the treaty, we have a
completely new situation," said Ulrich Irmer, head of the
foreign policy committee of the Free Democratic Party
(FDP).
"I can assure you that not only the German government
but also the parliament reflects about alternatives or
about scenarios which might be implemented if the
Maastricht Treaty is rejected," he added. "Of course we do
this, but we don't say it in public because we are
optimists."
The FDP is the junior partner in Chancellor Helmut
Kohl's ruling coalition.
Irmer also indicated that a public admission that
Germany was giving less than 100% support to the Maastricht
Treaty could in itself kill off any chance the agreement
has of surviving.
Irmer's comments contrast sharply with statements made
by Kohl and Economics Minister Juergen Moellemann, who both
called for a unanimous approval of the treaty by all 12 EC
members without any renegotiation.
Kohl reiterated that position Monday following his
meeting with EC Commission President Jacques Delors to talk
about Friday's summit.
Indeed, German politicians are privately saying that
renegotiating the treaty is impossible since some member
states, such as Greece, Ireland, and France, ratified the
original version while other member states, such as Britain
and Germany, would be asked to approve a modified version.
However, divisions within the German government over
what to do if Maastricht fails makes its alternatives
difficult to discern.

SUBJ: Bonn Contemplates -3: EC Core Seen Going For Own Union
"I think the main effect of non-ratification by
Britain would be a disaster for Britain," said Werner
Hoyer, the FDP's parliamentary whip. "I am quite sure the
core of the EC would still develop into a European union. I
also am quite sure that a couple of very important nations
that are presently not EC member nations would participate
then."
Under this idea, the EC core, defined by Hoyer as its
original members - Germany, France, the Benelux countries
and Italy - would forge a union that might also include
Scandinavian nations, Austria and maybe even Switzerland.
"I can see interesting options there, but no matter
how nice they might look, they are only second-best
solutions" to ratifying Maastricht, Hoyer said.
Still unexplained is how Italy's beleaguered economy
would stand up to the stiff competition of its northern
neighbors in a future European union or how EC membership
for Scandinavia, Switzerland and Austria would lead almost
immediately to a deeper union with only some EC members.
Also unsaid is that the Scandinavian countries and
Switzerland would likely have to make these decisions based
on public referenda. In light of the narrow French vote in
favor of Maastricht and the Danish vote to reject, there is
no guarantee Swiss or Scandinavian voters would be more
amenable.
"My impression is that they (the government) don't
have an answer yet" to what comes next if Maastricht fails,
Thies said.

SUBJ: UAW Seeks To Help Solve General Motors `Problems'
By Joseph B. White
DETROIT -- The United Auto Workers union's top negotiator at General
Motors Corp., in an unusual public statement, said the union "recognizes
that GM has real problems" and is "quite prepared to be a part of . . .
solutions," The Wall Street Journal reported
The statement was the first public hint that the UAW is willing to
participate in GM's crash effort to make its North American operations
profitable again.
In his most direct public comments on GM's recent labor troubles, UAW
Vice President Stephen P. Yokich criticized recent reports that GM's
outside directors are pushing management to take a tougher line with the
union. "Finger-pointing, scapegoating and management by news-leak isn't
one bit helpful" in the process of negotiating a resolution to GM's
problems, Yokich said.
Yokich apparently was referring to an article in yesterday's Washington
Post that said GM's directors had told GM Chairman Robert C. Stempel to
get tough with the UAW or risk losing his own job, perhaps by year end.
Yokich's comments come at a time when he and GM President John F. Smith
Jr. are walking a tightrope between GM's outside directors, who want fast
action to cut labor costs, and UAW local leaders, who want Yokich to fight
any effort to cut jobs. Smith and Yokich are in regular contact with each
other, and it is Smith, not Stempel, who is primarily responsible for
dealing with the labor issue, people close to the company say.
GM's directors have turned up pressure on top GM management to develop a
strategy for closing a $795-per-vehicle labor cost gap with rival Ford
Motor Co. GM directors conducted an extensive and critical review of GM's
labor strategy at a meeting in New York last week, people familiar with
the board's deliberations said.
GM's reaction to reports of the board's impatience came in a statement
from Stempel that "there is no disagreement between management and GM
directors on the position the corporation must take in bargaining with the
union." That position, the statement added, is to "improve our
competitiveness."
Talks to fashion a new labor contract are expected to be tough. GM
officials have indicated they will press demands, which the UAW has
rejected in the past, to cut medical insurance costs and introduce lower
wages for parts operations.
GM is also expected to accelerate and possibly expand plans to cut 54,000
UAW jobs from its North American payrolls. GM is considering the sale of
more of its parts-making operations than previously disclosed, according
to company insiders and individuals who have approached the auto maker
with proposals to acquire GM operations. GM has declined to comment.
The UAW, however, has seemed determined in recent weeks to block these
efforts. Since late August, UAW locals at three different factories have
protested GM's efforts to cut jobs by threatening damaging strikes. Locals
at a key metal stamping plant in Lordstown, Ohio, and an assembly plant in
Lansing, Mich., made good on their threats by staging walkouts.
But a third and potentially crippling strike at a pivotal parts plant in
Anderson, Ind., was averted last week. Senior GM and UAW negotiators, who
took over the Anderson talks on Oct. 6, cut a deal under which the UAW for
the first time agreed to cooperate in an intensive program to cut labor
costs at the factory. Workers will participate in one-week cost-cutting
workshops, modeled on a program launched elsewhere at GM by Smith's fiery
vice president for world-wide purchasing, J. Ignacio Lopez de Arriortua.
Some analysts speculated yesterday that the Anderson agreement could
serve as a model for efforts to cut costs at other GM plants.

SUBJ: Bonn Contemplates -4: Officials Act To Soothe Public
"There has been deep uncertainty since the close
outcome of the French referendum," Thies added. "Since they
don't know what to do, they are continuing to say what they
have always said."
Although the German government is trying to maintain a
united front in support of Maastricht, some of its actions
belie the doubts that are swelling to the surface.
Most significantly, it promised the parliament last
Thursday that it wouldn't proceed with the full currency
union without parliamentary approval. The Maastricht Treaty
itself makes no provision for this step.
While government officials have repeatedly denied
publicly that the vote is effectively a German "opt-out"
clause, they also refuse to discuss the consequences of a
"no" vote by parliament.
"I couldn't imagine parliament not approving the entry
of Germany into monetary union if the criteria laid down in
Maastricht are strictly met," said a finance ministry
spokesman said.
Also last Thursday, Finance Minister Theo Waigel
created a furor when he said the single European currency
envisioned by Maastricht wouldn't be the European Currency
Unit (ECU) but a Euro-mark. This raised fears that Germany
was outlining a smaller currency union than the one planned
at Maastricht.
Politicians have since said that Waigel's statements
were meant only for domestic consumption and to reassure
German citizens that the European currency would be at
least as stable as the Deutsche mark.
"These are all things that are said in order to soothe
the national public," Irmer said.

SUBJ: ADVANCE/Sen. Glenn Outlines Positions on Energy, Environmental
Issues
During the past several years I have authored amendments to the
DOD Authorization bill and the Energy and Water Appropriations bill
which have increased funding for E, S&H issues.
One of the first issues I focused on when I entered the Senate
was the problem of radioactive waste management. As past chairman
of the Senate Subcommittee on Energy, Nuclear Proliferation, and
Federal Services, I conducted numerous hearings on this problem and
introduced legislation, parts of which were ultimately incorporated
in the Nuclear Waste Policy Act passed by Congress in 1982. As
chairman of the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs, my concern
for this issue has not wavered.
In 1985, I supported the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy
Amendments Act which governs the ongoing disposal of low-level
radioactive wastes. This law delegates primary responsibility to
the states and provides a framework for construction of additional
low-level waste repositories. The states lobbied vigorously for
this authority, believing that they were best-suited for determining
where and how to site these facilities.
I will do my utmost to ensure that the people of Ohio, and the
rest of the country, are well-protected from any hazards posed by
any low-level waste disposal site. I am enclosing a summary
statement of a General Accounting Office (GAO) report done at my
request which addresses the low-level radioactive waste issue. If
you would like a copy of the full GAAO study, please contact the
Governmental Affairs Committee at 340 Dirksen Senate Office
Building, Washington, D.C. 20510.
I cite my work in these areas to make clear that my interest in
and knowledge of nuclear matters goes beyond the headlines. I have
attempted, during my time in the Senate, to craft workable solutions
to the many vexing dilemmas that nuclear power and the nuclear arms
race pose for our society.
10. Do you support the authority of state governments to:
A. Protect their citizens from radiation and other toxic
emissions with stricter than federal laws and regulations?
YES
B. Veto the relicensing of nuclear power plants for safety or
economic reasons, after their 40 year operating license
has expired?
SEE COMMENT
C. Set and enforce stricter than federal standards for the
transportation of radioactive waste across state borders?
YES
The Office of Technology Assessment is currently undertaking
a study at my request to examine the technical issues
relating to attaining and extending the design life of
commercial nuclear power plants.
11. Do you support the adoption and funding of a federal
transportation policy committed to the development of high speed
rail, light rail, bikeways and other environmentally sound mass
transit systems?
YES
I recently voted for the Intermodal Surface Transportation
Efficiency Act (ISTEA) which, for the first time, provides
states with the flexibility to use federal highway funds for
transit, rail, and other transportation projects, rather than
using these funds exclusively for road construction and
maintenance.
12. Do you favor a ban on off shore oil drilling in environmentally
sensitive areas?
YES
13. Do you support protecting the rights of citizen groups to
gather information from and protect the identity of whistleblowers?
NO
People who have the courage and integrity to report instances
of misconduct, waste or criminal activity in government should
be protected to the best of our ability. However, it appears
that this question refers to whistleblowers who are federal
employees. Due in part to legislation sponsored by me, there
are currently Inspectors General (IG's) in place in 60
government offices. They routinely gather information from
whistleblowers, and are required by law to protect
whistleblower identities. The IG offices are staffed with
trained investigators and auditors. I believe they are
uniquely and best qualified to gather and protect the
information and identity of aa whistleblower. I do not believe
that citizen groups have the means at their disposal that IG's
do.
14. Do you support the United States signing the global
biodiversity treaty, and taking a leading role in reaching
international agreements and proposing initiatives to restore and
protect the global environment?
YES
End of questionnaire. Thank you for your cooperation.

In September, overall exports, as measured when goods
passed through customs, rose 14% to $31.60 billion from
$27.65 billion, for the 28th consecutive month of gain from
the year-earlier level.
Japan's overall customs-cleared imports came to $19.53
billion, up 8.6% from $17.99 billion a year earlier. In
August, imports fell on year for the first time in four
months.
The September unadjusted surplus was up 71% from the
August unadjusted surplus, while exports were 21% and
imports were up 2.4%. For August the surplus was $7.07
billion, up 24% from $5.70 billion a year before. Exports in
August were $26.14 billion, up 5.4%. Imports that month came
to $19.07 billion, down 0.2%. The Finance Ministry revised
the August surplus to smaller than the 7.50 billion yen that
it initially reported. The ministry originally reported
exports at $26.53 billion and imports $19.02 billion for
August.

SUBJ: Australian Shares Close Softer On Directionless Trading
SYDNEY -(AP-DJ)--Australian stocks drifted to a softer
close Wednesday after directionless trading kept the main
share index within a five-point range.
The All-Ordinaries index closed down 3.2 points at
1,453.8.
The index, which started at 1,651.4, is almost back at
its 18-month closing low of 1,452.4, achieved Oct. 6.
The index drifted for most of the day, with weaker
prices for some metals and a drop in the gold price
responsible for a drift down in some resource stocks.
Trading was directionless despite stronger
performances on international markets Tuesday. Data showing
an 8.3% growth in the volume of new Australian housing
approvals for August failed to move the market, traders
said.
Chris Kincaid, an institutional trader for brokerage
BOS Stockbroking Ltd. said "investors were unprepared to
commit themselves and take a position in the present
uncertain climate. He cited the U.S. presidential election
and the possibility of further monetary easings in the U.S.
and Germany as generating much of the uncertainty on
financial markets.
Turnover on Australian markets totaled 112 million shares
valued around $193 million Australian, compared with
Tuesday's 111 million shares valued around A$207 million.
Falls outnumbered rises 152 to 139.
On the Sydney Futures Exchange, the December share
price index futures contract fell to 1,446.0 from 1,457.0
Tuesday.

SUBJ: Bundesbank Casts Doubt -2: No Comment On Ramifications
FRANKFURT -(AP-DJ)--The Deutsche Bundesbank cast doubt
on whether European Community (EC) members will meet
their timetable for ratifying the Maastricht treaty.
Under the terms of the treaty on European political,
economic and monetary union, the 12 EC nations are to
adopt it by Jan. 1, 1993.
"It remains to be seen when this ratification process
will be completed and whether the Jan. 1, 1993 deadline
can be met for the treaty to take effect," the Bundesbank
wrote in its October monthly report.
The one-sentence statement on Maastricht was included
as the final sentence in a special eight-page chapter
entitled "Europe on the Way to a Common Market." The
chapter, which didn't directly deal with Maastricht
issues until the conclusion, didn't elaborate on the
reasons for the possible delay.
The Maastricht treaty has been ratified by parliaments
or referenda in France, Greece, Luxembourg and Ireland.
Parliaments in seven other EC members are expected to vote
on the treaty by the end of the year.
In the twelfth country, Danish voters rejected the
treaty in a June 2 referendum. Their government has said
it may hold a second referendum in mid-1993 if some
aspects of the treaty are clarified.
The Bundesbank didn't comment on whether the
ratification delays would lead to other complications.

SUBJ: Bundesbank Casts Doubt -3:Forex Differences More Apparent
Under the treaty, the next stage of European monetary
union begins Jan. 1, 1994. Early in that phase, EC
members will found a European Monetary Institute, a
forerunner to a European central bank, that will
coordinate national monetary policies but won't issue
money or have monetary authority.
In the final stage of monetary union, which can start
as early as 1997 but no later than 1999, countries which
meet tough economic targets would irrevocably fix their
exchange rates and eventually trade in their currencies
for a single currency.
The Bundesbank's chapter on Europe focused mainly on
the establishment of a single European market, a parallel
endeavor which also is to take effect Jan. 1, 1993.
As those deadlines loom, the differences in the
economies have become more apparent, it said. "In a
single borderless market, the exchange-rate uncertainties
that still persist will come more clearly to light."

SUBJ: Bundesbank Casts Doubt -4: Realignments Option To The End
But exchange rates in Europe's exchange rate mechanism
(ERM) should calm down after the recent calamities, the
Bundesbank wrote. "With both exchange rate adjustments on
Sept. 13 (when the lira was devalued) and Sept. 17 (when the
peseta was devalued) and the suspension of the exchange rate
of the British pound and the lira, the conditions should
have substantially improved for a stable exchange rate
structure between the EMS currencies. It is therefore hoped
that the limitation on capital flows (by Spain, Portugal and
Ireland) can soon once again be removed."
On Sept. 23, the Bank of Spain introduced emergency
capital controls in an effort to shield the peseta from
heavy selling. But on Oct. 5, it lifted the capital
restrictions for residents but toughened them for
non-residents.
On the following day, Portugal and Ireland introduced
measures that diminished trading volumes in their currencies
and braked the heavy selling.
The Bundesbank also repeated its stance that EC nations
should employ the opportunity to change ERM parities "up to
the point of entry" into the final stage of monetary union
when exchange rates are fixed irrevocably.

SUBJ: German Govt -2: Raised Gross DM12 Bln Bonds In September
FRANKFURT -(AP-DJ)--The German government borrowed a
net 15.11 billion Deutsche marks in the first nine months
of 1992, the Deutsche Bundesbank writes in its October
monthly report.
That's some three billion marks above Bonn's cash
deficit for that period and allowed the government to add
that surplus to its cash reserves, the bank reports.
The territorial governments markedly stepped up their
borrowing activities in September. The federal government
restricted its borrowing activities to tap sales which
met with strong buying interest amid September's hefty
bond market rally. Bonn raised a gross 12 billion marks
that way in September; after redemptions, that left a net
5 billion marks, the bank said. The German Unity Fund
raised 3.5 billion marks in September.
The territorial governments include federal, state
and local governments as well as the Unity Fund, the ERP
Special Fund and the Debt Liquidation Fund.
In August, territorial governments had borrowed some
4.5 billion marks. Although Bonn raised some 7.5 billion
marks through the issue of four-year Treasury bills, most
of that was erased by heavy redemptions. The federal
states were the biggest borrowers in August, raising 2.5
billion marks. Municipalities borrowed about 1 billion
marks that month while the Unity Fund and the ERP Special
Fund borrowed some 500 million marks each.
Other public-sector borrowers tapped the market
heavily in August. The German postal authority Bundespost
issued 5 billion marks of bonds and the Treuhandanstalt
raised some 2 billion marks. Meanwhile, the railway
agencies reduced their indebtedness slightly in August.

SUBJ: Australian Debt Mkts End Mostly Weaker; 3Yr Govts Yld 7.39%
SYDNEY -(AP-DJ)--Fading institutional interest coupled
with sporadic profit-taking left prices of Australian debt
instruments ending generally weaker Wednesday.
The economic data announced during the session didn't
help generate enthusiasm and traders say some market
participants were acting cautious ahead of Thursday's $700
million (Australian) treasury bond tender.
The short end of the bond market, in particular, "is
struggling," says one trader. "There's no fresh buying," he
adds.
September 1995 10 1/2% government bonds finished the day
at a yield of 7.39%, 10 basis points more than late Tuesday.
October 2002 10% government bonds yield 8.72%, six basis
points more on the day.
In the money market, 90-day bills were little changed at
a yield of 5.85%. Bank bill futures for December delivery
settled at 94.12, down 0.02 on the day.
The Bureau of Statistics said Wednesday that the number
of housing-finance approvals rose 8.3% in August from July
on a seasonally adjusted basis. The value of commitments
rose 12.9%.
The Reserve Bank of Australia announced early in the day
that credit supplied by intermediaries to the private sector
rose 0.4% in August from July but fell 1.5% in the 12 months
to August.

SUBJ: Clinton, Gore Engage In Messy Debate As Perot's Man Watches
ATLANTA -DJ- With pointing fingers and insistent interruptions, Al Gore
and Dan Quayle clashed over leadership, abortion and the economy in a vice
presidential debate denounced by James Stockdale as ''why this nation is
in gridlock.''
It was a messy affair that ended on a sharp, negative note, with
Republican Quayle looking into the prime-time camera and referring darkly
to the Democratic front-runner.
''The American people should demand that their president tell the truth.
Do you really believe Bill Clinton will tell the truth, and do you do you
trust Bill Clinton to be your president?''
President George Bush and Quayle were like ''deer caught in the
headlights'' when the recession struck, Gore charged. He pledged that he
and Clinton ''stand for change.''
The political imperative was clear for each of the three running mates:
to boost the fortunes of the man at the top of the ticket in a race that
has exactly three weeks left to run and shows Clinton with a double-digit
lead in the polls.

SUBJ: Australian Debt Mkts-2:Credit Data Confirm Recovery Slow
Economists say the latest private-sector credit data
didn't add much to the emerging picture of an economy
creeping from the depths of recession.
"It's further confirmation that the (economic) recovery
is fairly slow," says CS First Boston Australia Ltd. senior
economist Peter McManus.
While housing finance is holding up, it appears
"business credit is still heading backwards," McManus says.
Bankers Trust Australia Ltd. Chief Economist Chris Caton
says "the general view is (private-sector credit statistics)
have stopped getting worse...In that sense we've turned the
corner, but we're not strong yet by any means."
Reflecting on the latest housing-finance data, Caton
writes in commentary that "the housing sector continues to
recover, albeit at a pace that remains moderate by past
standards."
"Those who on the basis of the recent employment and
retails sales figures had rushed to the judgment that the
recovery was going away may have to think again. The slow
recovery goes on," Caton writes.
The number of people employed in Australia fell a
seasonally adjusted 43,800 in September, while retail sales
rose a more tepid than expected 0.1% in August.

SUBJ: S&P Rates Tokyo Elec Power 7.625% Straight Bonds AAA
LONDON -DJ- Standard & Poor's Corp. said it assigned its Triple-A rating
to Tokyo Electric Power Co. Inc.'s (TEPCO) DM1 billion (about $670
million) 7.625% straight bonds (series 4) due Nov. 6, 2002.
''The triple-A ratings on TEPCO's outstanding foreign and domestic bonds
are affirmed along with the A-1-Plus rating on TEPCO's Japanese commercial
paper program. The outlook on the ratings is 'stable.''' S&P said.
''TEPCO's ratings reflect Japan's cooperative regulatory environment, the
company's position as electricity industry leader and monopoly supplier of
the nation's strongest economic area, and its importance to national
energy policy. The company is the world's largest privately owned
electric utility and serves the Tokyo metropolitan area, supplying about
30% of Japan's total electricity demand. TEPCO is a key participant in
the nation's economy and energy policy, the first priority of which is
energy supply security, given the nation's dependence on imported energy
sources. Japan's utilities are supported by a highly cooperative
relationship with the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI),
which regulates the industry, overseeing timely rate adjustments and
national coordination of energy supply and demand.
''TEPCO plays a leading role in consulting with MITI about capital
expenditures, rate setting, nuclear power, and environmental issues for
the entire industry. The company's generation mix emphasizes efficiency
and environmental soundness, in which Japan compares relatively favorably
to other industrialized countries. Liquefied natural gas now supplies
over a third of TEPCO's generation and has improved the company's fuel
supply position. In spite of the recent emergency shutdown of a unit at
its Fukushima nuclear facility, TEPCO's record of nuclear operations
remains relatively good (35% of generation).
''Recent profitability weakness due to lower electricity rates and higher
fossil fuel prices is not expected to be sustained. Leverage, very high
compared to peers outside Japan, is not unusual for the Japanese industry,
reflecting high investment spending required by rapid demand growth.
Existing agreements to purchase power from other electricity generators
with excess capacity should help alleviate demand pressures. Over the
longer term TEPCO still expects to be able to incorporate significant new
capacity into its rate base,'' S&P said.

SUBJ: Japan's NIS Rates Haseko Bonds Prelim Single-A-Minus
TOKYO -DJ- Nippon Investors Service assigned a Single-A-Minus rating to
the Japanese bond registration of Haseko Corp., the rating agency
announced.
On Sept. 30 Haseko registered with Japan's Finance Ministry to issue up
to 120 billion yen of bonds in Japan for a two-year period. Last week the
Japan Bond Research Institute also rated Haseko's registration a
preliminary Single-A-Minus.
Next week Haseko is expected to offer a total of 40 billion yen of bonds
in the domestic market, underwriters say. If the Tokyo-based condominium
builder does offer bonds it will be the first issue of the registration.

SUBJ: Persian Gulf Crudes Stable From Late Tues. U.S. Prices
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Mideast crudes in Wednesday's Asia
are mostly steady at prices seen late in the U.S. on the
previous day, said traders.
With no new fundamental news to spur the Asian market,
traders pointed to the decreases in New York prices as
the Texaco Inc. 100,000 barrel-a-day (b/d) refinery was
reported to restart partially by next week. The
California refinery suffered damages from an explosion
in the catalytic reforming unit last week.
In addition, western markets were softer in the
previous day because of the report by the Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries that production in
September had exceeded their market share agreement of
24.2 million b/d, at 24.93 million b/d. Iranian reports
that the country's crude production was up to 4.0 million
was still causing bearish sentiment in the market as
well, said market players.
December Dubai is at $18.55-18.60 per barrel, mostly
unchanged from the late New York levels on Tuesday. In Asia
a day earlier, December Dubai was at $18.65.
January Dubai is at $18.45, with Dubai cargoes in
backwardation for the winter months.

SUBJ: Time Magazine -2-: Alleges Infringement Of Copyright Laws
NEW YORK -DJ- Time Magazine, p;ublished by Time Warner Inc., (TWX) said
it is filing suit against the Bush/Quayle 92' campaign for infringement of
copyright, trademark and other laws, charging that the campaign is making
unauthorized use of Time's April 20, 1992 cover ''Why Voters Don't Trust
Clinton'' in a television commercial.
In a press release, the company said that after the Bush/Quayle
advertisement first aired Sunday, Oct. 11, lawyers for Time Inc., Time's
parent company, sent a letter to the campaign insisting that they
''immediately cease and desist from any further broadcast, telecast or
other use of the commercial.'' The magazine protested that ''the implicit
suggestion of the commercial that Time endorses its contents is extremely
damaging to Time's reputation and makes this infringement of Time's rights
all the more serious.''
A lawyer for the Bush/Quayle campaign responding to Time's demand refused
to pull the advertisement. As a result, lawyers for Time Inc. are filing
suit in Federal District Court in Washington, D.C. Henry Muller, the
magazine's managing editor, said, ''This is a serious distortion of our
journalism. From time to time we've done critical covers on all three
candidates, and we object to the implication that we are taking sides.''
Time Inc is a unit of Time Warner Inc. (TWX).

SUBJ: Debate -2-: Polls Favor Gore, Little Impact Seen On Race
Viewers polled after the vice presidential debate reacted more favorably
to Al Gore than to his two opponents, but there was no evidence he won any
votes for his ticket.
A poll for ''Dateline NBC'' found 50% of viewers thought Democrat Gore
did the best job in the debate, 32% liked Republican Dan Quayle and just
7% gave top rank to independent candidate James Stockdale.
An ABC News poll asked who won, and Gore barely edged out Quayle, 38% to
35%, with 17% calling it a tie and 2% saying Stockdale won.
ABC said fewer people were undecided about their presidential choice
after the debate, but the standings did not change much; 47% for Bill
Clinton, up one point, 38% for President Bush, up three points and 12% for
Ross Perot, unchanged.
Quayle not only helped his ticket slightly more than Gore did, but the
35% who thought he won compared favorably with the 18% who thought Bush
won after Sunday's leadoff debate.
The 38% who thought Gore won could be interpreted as a disappointment
because it fell well below Clinton's share of the presidential preference,
said ABC polling director Jeff Alderman.

SUBJ: Japan Steel Output-2: Auto, Electric Sector Demand Weak
Looking ahead, the federation spokesman said he hopes
there will be some positive impact on steel output from
the government's March emergency package which pledged to
allocate about 75% of spending for public works in the
budget for this fiscal year in the first half ended Sept.
30. If the pace of decline in steel production comes
closer to 5% from year-earlier levels in the
October-December quarter, he said, he will be able to
acknowledge a favorable impact on steel output due to
steady implementation of the "front-loading."
In addition, the conclusion of a steel export
contract with Russia which will total 350,000 metric
tons to help develop natural gas projects, suggests a
bright spot to lift steel production during the current
quarter. As the contract with Russia calls for shipment
of steel products to start from the beginning of 1993, he
said the contracts may serve as a factor to raise
production.
However, he said a recovery in steel output due to a
pick up in demand from steel firms' clients such as the
auto industry must wait until next spring.
MITI's latest quarterly forecast called for Japan's
production of steel in the October-December quarter to
come to 24.90 million metric tons, down 4.3% from the
corresponding period a year ago. If the ministry's
prediction proves correct, the nation's steel output
would sink below 25.00 million metric tons for a fourth
consecutive quarter. The ministry's prediction at the
same time suggested that total production for 1992 may
come to 97.70 million metric tons, falling short of 100
million metric tons for the first time since 1987, when
steel output totaled 98.512 million metric tons.

The RPs will unwind Nov. 15. Thursday's market is
estimated to have an initial surplus of 2.24 trillion yen,
but with the financing bill sale the market should end
with a deficit of 2.16 trillion yen if the Bank of Japan
doesn't conduct any other money market operations to take
effect Thursday.
The rate on the RPs is 4.0316%. Financing bills are
short-term government securities.

SUBJ: N.Z. Dollar Closes Slightly Higher In Moderate Trading
WELLINGTON -(AP-DJ)--The New Zealand dollar closed
slightly higher in moderate trading Wednesday, with local
dealers expecting the domestic currency to consolidate
around current levels.
"The dollar traded in a gentle range today and didn't
do too much at all," an Auckland-based dealer said.
"It's moved up a little in the last couple of days and
is just consolidating on that at the moment," the dealer
said.
Late Wednesday, the New Zealand dollar was quoted at
0.5428 U.S. dollar, just up from 0.5424 U.S. dollar late Tuesday
in Wellington, but down from its local open at 0.5435 U.S.
dollar.
The local currency traded in moderate range of
0.5424-0.5446 U.S. dollar Wednesday.
Against its trade-weighted index the New Zealand
dollar slipped to 53.93 Wednesday, from 53.97 Tuesday.
On a cross rate with the neighboring Australian dollar
the New Zealand dollar closed at 0.7512 AUS dollar Wednesday,
down from 0.7525 AUS dollar Tuesday.
"There has been some good economic data out on New
Zealand recently and I think the dollar will improve over
time," the dealer said.
The statistics department issued Wednesday New
Zealand's latest consumer price inflation data, showing the
country had an inflation rate of just 1.0% in the 12 months
ended Sept. 30, level with the 1.0% rate recorded for the
12 months to June 30.

SUBJ: EC Summit/Britain -2: Lamont Factor Seen Hurting Major
Unconvincing attempts by the government to
reformulate policy and get the ERM reformed have further
undermined its credibility, analysts say.
For many, failure at Birmingham, which could leave
Britain further isolated from the rest of the EC, would
be the last straw.
"Apart from an economic volte face, we are now close
to a political volte face," commented Keith Skeoch, chief
economist at James Capel & Co. This, he said, is in sharp
contrast to Major's previous pledge to keep Britain "at
the heart of Europe."
In the meantime, the government is still reeling from
the impact of its economic reversal. Sterling's ERM
suspension is seen as having greatly undermined Lamont's
credibility. He had sworn allegiance to the mechanism as
the only option for economic recovery but within hours of
the pound's removal he was singing the praises of a
floating currency.
The prime minister also isn't absolved of
responsibility. He took the pound into the ERM when he
was chancellor in October 1990 and he was just as
involved in the decision to take it out again.
Some suggest Major has left himself exposed
politically by not jettisoning Lamont and starting afresh
with a new chancellor and new policies.
"Major's position is made more vulnerable by the fact
that Lamont is still there," said James Capel's Skeoch.
Major initially called the Birmingham summit to
discuss both ERM reform and the future of Maastricht,
given signs that popular support for the treaty was
waning across Europe.

SUBJ: Sweden's Riksbank -2: Announced 1-Day, 32-Bln-Kr Repo
STOCKHOLM -(AP-DJ)--Sveriges Riksbank, the central
bank of Sweden, reduced its key marginal lending rate to
the 15.5% level from the 16.5% level on its interest
rate scale Wednesday morning when announcing a one-day,
32-billion-krona securities repurchase agreement.
The marginal rate governs banks' borrowing and
deposits with the Riksbank. On Friday, the Riksbank cut
the marginal rate to 16.5% from 18%.
The marginal interest rate had been hiked as high as
500% for a brief period during recent turmoil in European
foreign exchange markets to stem capital outflow.
Statements by top Riksbank officials in the past three
weeks indicated reductions in the marginal rate signal a
return to "more normal interest rate levels."
In August, before forex turmoil began, the marginal
lending rate stood at 11.5%.
Wednesday's reduction in the marginal rate had been
expected, said dealers.

SUBJ: Xerox Plans To Sell Its Van Kampen Unit For $360 Mln
By Randall Smith
Xerox Corp. plans to sell its Van Kampen Merritt Cos. money management
business to the private investment firm of Clayton Dubilier & Rice Inc.
for $360 million, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Xerox announced the sale plan last night in response to reports about the
transaction circulating on Wall Street.
The company decided to make the sale after announcing two months ago that
it would sell as much as 38% of Van Kampen, which manages about $18
billion in bond mutual funds, in an initial public offering aimed at
raising $138 million.
But Clayton Dubilier & Rice, best known for its $1.5 billion leveraged
buy-out of the typewriter business of International Business Machines
Corp. last year, preempted the offering by bidding for the entire
business. The offering was being managed by Lazard Freres & Co. and
Wasserstein Perella & Co.
The sale is likely to generate a gain on the order of $100 million for
Xerox, because Van Kampen was carried on its books for $237.4 million as
of June 30. Xerox, whose main business is copiers and other office
equipment, has been shedding some of the financial services businesses it
acquired in the 1980s.
Clayton Dubilier, which manages a pool of equity capital valued at more
than $1 billion, was able to move quickly on the purchase because it had
been studying a possible acquisition of a mutual fund company built by Sir
John Templeton.
Clayton Dubilier is working with Van Kampen's current management, led by
Chairman John C. Merritt, and expects that management and employees will
own 20% of the company's stock. Xerox will also have the right to acquire
a 10% stake in the company.
Clayton Dubilier, based in New York, plans to finance the acquisition
with $165 million in equity and $250 million in debt. It will be assuming
about $35 million in debt from Xerox connected to Van Kampen.

SUBJ: TD Bank-Central Guaranty -2-: CDIC Coverage Seen Sufficient
TORONTO -DJ- Toronto Dominion Bank (T.TD) disclosed details of its
agreement in principle with Central Guaranty Trust Co. and Central
Guaranty Mortgage Corp. to acquire substantially all of their assets and
all of their deposit liabilities.
Under the terms of the agreement, TD said it will pay a purchase price
premium of C$125 million to acquire about C$9 billion of performing loans
and securities, the majority of which are residential mortgages, and the
trust company's mutual fund, agent and VISA businesses. It said it will
assume all of CGT's deposit liabilities and will offer employment to CGT
branch, trust, mutual fund and VISA personnel.
The bank said Canada Deposit Insurance Corp. will provide coverage
against losses which may be sustained on the portfolio of performing
assets acquired by the bank. TD said it believes that the coverage to be
obtained from CDIC will be sufficient.
The transaction has now received TD and CGT board approval, and requires
CGT shareholder and formal regulatory approval, and execution of
definitive documentation. As reported, the transaction is expected to
close by Dec. 31.

SUBJ: Dlr In Tokyo: Hardly Moves Despite Kanemaru, Greenspan
TOKYO -(AP-DJ)--Currencies hardly moved in Tokyo
Wednesday despite a powerful Japanese politician's forced
resignation from parliament and a speech by U.S.
Federal Reserve Board Alan Greenspan.
Lack of clearer indications that monetary policies in
major nations may change soon as well as caution ahead
of uncertainties surrounding Thursday's twice-monthly
meeting of the Bundesbank's policy-setting central bank
council and Friday's meeting of European Community
leaders in Birmingham, U.K., helped limit currency
dealings Wednesday, traders said.
"There's just no clear trend at all" in current
foreign exchange dealings, said a currency dealer at a
major North American bank in Tokyo at the session's close.
The dollar finished Wednesday at 121.10 yen,
unchanged from 121.10 yen late Tuesday in New York but
down from 121.60 yen late Tuesday in Tokyo.
The U.S. currency also finished at 1.4646 Deutsche
marks, slightly higher than 1.4640 marks late Tuesday in
New York but below 1.4830 marks in Tokyo Tuesday.
The mark ended at 82.68 yen, down from 82.72 yen in
New York late Tuesday but above 82.00 yen in Tokyo late
Tuesday.

SUBJ: Tokyo Stocks -3: Nikkei Seen Testing 17,000 Thursday
The Nikkei index ranged between 17,344.03 points and
17,714.04 points Wednesday.
Dealers said the index will likely test 17,000
Thursday. The horizon remains largely devoid of news,
they said, and low volume continues to plague the
market.
"We could go back into a decline," said one player at
a Japanese securities firm. "The technical indicators
seem to indicate we could drop off very sharply."
Dealers said the Nikkei has firm support at 17,000.
"So far we've seen government buying coming in at that
level," said Wayne Rayner, a dealer at Sanyo Securities.
He said government pension-fund investment is likely to
buoy the index, as it has during recent sessions.
Officials have pledged 2.8 trillion yen of postal
life-insurance-fund investment in shares during the
fiscal year running through March 31. Rayner said
investment trusts are also likely to place buy orders
around 17,000 as are other participants who see the level
as a short-term bottom.
One dealer said "the line's drawn at 17,000. All bets
are off if we fall below that level." The consensus,
however, is that the index will stay above the key
figure Thursday. Most dealers said the Nikkei is likely
range bound between 17,000 and 17,500.
Interest rates remain in the market focus, with
players looking for hints of a German rate cut when that
country's central bankers meet Thursday. They say that
while the Tokyo Sagawa Kyubin political scandal
dominates Japanese headlines, it is unlikely to affect the
direction of dealings.

SUBJ: EC Summit/Britain -3: Major To Push For Subsidiarity
However, other countries with currencies still in the
ERM quickly made clear they are happy with the system's
current structure. Even Italy, which had been forced to
suspend its currency at the same time as the pound,
indicated it is prepared to rejoin the mechanism as soon
as it can.
Apart from Spain, which expressed some misgivings
over the ERM's operations, Britain has been left largely
isolated on the issue, with any talk of reform swiftly
dropped from the Birmingham agenda.
Success for Major at Birmingham will now rely on his
ability to wrench some concessions on Maastricht itself,
in the hope that this will make it more palatable to
Euroskeptics both in Britain and other EC countries.
Major, like other leaders, has already ruled out
renegotiation of the treaty itself. Instead, he will push
for concessions on subsidiarity - the policy of reducing
the power of the European Commission in Brussels in favor
of national governments.
But few expect the Prime Minister to have much luck
in achieving anything more than a token agreement. James
Capel's Skeoch sees at most a 40% chance of success.
The community's dominant nations - France and Germany
- are more interested in accelerating moves toward union
for fear of losing political momentum, analysts point
out.
Both countries officially deny plans for a 2-speed
Europe that will leave Britain and other weak countries
behind. However, senior Bonn officials continue to talk
of a multi-speed system indicating that Germany and
France, as well as the converging economies of Holland,
Belgium and Luxembourg, are unwilling to wait for weaker
members.

SUBJ: EC Summit/Britain -4: Danish Support
Subsidiarity also won't get support from smaller EC
countries, which are keen to give power to Brussels.
"They want the Commission to protect the interests of the
small players against the big players," Kleinwort's
Spencer pointed out.
The only country going to Birmingham supporting
Britain is Denmark. Although its currency is firmly
anchored inside the ERM, its government faces the
ticklish task of revamping the Maastricht Treaty to make
it acceptable to the Danes. They voted to reject the
treaty in a referendum held in early June.
Despite frantic diplomatic activity over the last few
weeks, there is little hope Britain will salvage much
from the meeting.
Lloyd's Foley feels that swiftly falling expectations
should reduce the political risks for the prime minister.
But, others still see a political tempest erupting if he
comes away from Birmingham empty-handed.
As many as 80 Conservative Members of Parliament,
much more than the government's 21 majority in the House
of Commons, are opposed to the treaty and keen to see
ratification blocked. Without concessions on subsidiarity
they are expected to whip up even more support.
However, opposition parties continue to support the
government on the issue and show little sign of joining
the highly vocal rebels. Ironically, this opposition
support could bring Major his badly needed victory in the
parliamentary battle over the ratification of Maastricht.
"It may get through by the skin of its teeth,"
predicted Skeoch.

SUBJ: Australian Dollar Seen Headed To 0.7250 U.S. Dlr This Wk
SYDNEY -(AP-DJ)--The Australian dollar is expected to
head higher after firming Wednesday, with dealers
predicting a test of 0.7250 U.S. dollar over the next few
days.
Late Wednesday the Australian dollar is around 0.7225
U.S. dollar, up from 0.7215 U.S. dollar late Tuesday and at its
highest late local level in two and a half weeks.
Against its trade-weighted index the currency slipped
to 53.0 from 53.2 Tuesday. It was barely changed at 87.60
yen from 87.70 yen Tuesday.
During the local session the Australian dollar traded a
0.7215-0.7235 U.S. dollar band, having broken the 0.7225/30
U.S. dollar resistance level in New York Tuesday.
Dealers said that augurs well for the local currency,
but said the move up will be slow.
Ferdy Khouw at Citibank Ltd. said he expects a range of
0.7210-0.7240 U.S. dollar later Wednesday, with a further
climb in coming days.
"If it can get through 0.7270 I would be bullish but
until then I'm not overly bullish," Khouw said.

SUBJ: Japan's Trade Surplus -5: Six Month Surplus Record High
The finance ministry said the $52.46 billion surplus in
the first half of this fiscal year marked the record high
for any six month period, surpassing the previous record
surplus of $48.66 billion hit in the second half of the
fiscal year ended March 1992.
Moreover, the trade surplus hit its all-time monthly
high in September, surging to $12.07 billion. The previous
monthly record was set in March 1992, when the nation's
merchandise trade surplus came to $10.97 billion, the
finance ministry said.
For the first half ended Sept. 30, meanwhile, unadjusted
exports came to $168.14 billion, rising 9.9% from $153.06
billion in the corresponding period a year ago.
Japan's custom-cleared imports during the six months
were up 2.0% to $115.67 billion from $113.38 billion in
the same period a year ago.
