The Germans also were being questioned. Germany has been plagued by violent neo-Nazis, skinheads, punks and drunks during its hottest summer in at least a century. None of the political violence has led to deaths. Hanover was a battleground over the weekend for anarchist punks. About 20 police officers, and several punks, were injured by flying bottles or rocks.
Rock fans in Bremen went on a rampage Friday night, causing $120,000 in damage to stores and cars. ZAIRE U.N. wants France to remain in Rwanda Fearing another mass exodus of refugees, the United Nations urged France once again today to delay its departure from southwestern Rwanda. A spokesman for the U.N. 's refugee agency said there is "a very real possibility" that up to 1 million Rwandans could stream over the border into Zaire when French troops leave.
France already has withdrawn about 300 soldiers from Rwanda and plans to remove its remaining 2,200 troops by Aug. 22. It has said, however, that the deadline could be extended two or three weeks if necessary to preserve order in its so-called security zone. far i ti JHW IN THE WORLD FROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS rising," said Samper, who faces accusations his campaign took millions of dollars from the Cali cocaine cartel. Without mentioning U.S.
officials, Samper on Sunday rejected their recent criticism of Colombia's policy of offering leniency to drug traffickers who turn themselves in and confess. "Nobody in the world has the moral right to give our country lessons on how to fight the narcotraffickers," Samper said. He said the policy of voluntary surrender will continue, but with longer sentences for drug traffickers. The 44-year-old economist narrowly defeated conservative rival Andres Pastrana in June to succeed President Cesar Gaviria. Dignitaries attending his outdoor inaugural on Plaza Bolivar included Cuban President Fidel Castro.
GERMANY Foreign, local gangs clash near border German and foreign gangs brawled with clubs, baseball bats, tear gas and broken bottles at a street fair in Saarbruecken near the French border, capping a weekend of widespread violence in Germany. About 25 foreign youths attacked a German group of the same size Sunday night, police spokesman Paul Zimmer said. Several youths were injured, none seriously. Police booked and released six WASHINGTON -Two top Democrats insist there's nothing "radical" in employers and employees sharing the cost of health insurance, but the White House considers the issue crucial to passage of health reform legislation. House SpeakerTom Foley and House Majority Leader Richard Gephardt each used the word "radical" to promote the same thought in separate Sunday talk show appearances.
"It's not some radical idea to have employers participate with employees in providing health care," said Foley on CBS' "Face the Nation." "That's where probably about 60 of the American people get their health care now." "And these are not radical plans," said Gephardt on ABC's "This Week With David Brinkley." "This is building on what we've always done, which is, employers and employees share the cost at the place of employment for their healthcare." Radical or not, requiring employers to pay a certain proportion of their workers' health insurance the so-called employer mandate will be the first key test of health reform in Congress, said White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta. "The mandate vote will be the crucial vote with regards to health care," Panetta said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "Right now, it's a tough vote, but we think we can get there. I think we can win this vote." After a year of public posturing by both sides of the health debate and an unprecedented advertising campaign costing millions of dollars, both houses of Congress take up competing legislation in mid-August. The Senate will consider the bill promoted by Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell of Maine calling for covering 95 of Americans by the year 2002.The House debates a bill by Gephardt, favoring the universal coverage included in Clinton's original proposal by 1999. WASHINGTON Whitewater probe may begin again The White House is miffed that a new prosecutor will take over the Whitewater investigation, possibly starting from scratch.
"Enough is enough," said Chief of Staff Leon Panetta. The concern expressed publicly by President Clinton's aides is that newly appointed independent counsel Kenneth Starr will replow the ground covered by special counsel Robert Fiske. They say that would waste time and money. Privately, aides are worried about Starr himself. He is a Republican and Bush administration solicitor general who recently criticized Clinton's attorneys for seeking presidential immunity in a sexual harassment lawsuit.
"I would hope the three-judge panel took all this in consideration with their appointment," Panetta said Sunday. "I would hope that he would proceed on the basis of fairness and objectivity and he won't let these factors influence his investigation." The Washington Post today quoted attorney Robert Bennett, who is representing Clinton in the harassment suit, as saying that Starr should decline the appointment. "I think there is a real appearance of unfairness," Bennett GENEVA and North Korean negotiators tried again today to reach agreement on opening the isolated communist country's nuclear program -suspected of producing atomic weapons to international inspection. The two delegations shook hands and smiled at the start of the session, then reportedly began discussing who should supply the North with a new nuclear reactor. An intensive first day of talks Friday produced little progress on the nuclear dispute, both sides said.
The weekend recess was meant to allow each side to consider the other's proposals and seek guidance from officials back home, said the chief U.S. negotiator, Robert Gallucci. Initially, the talks were to resume Saturday. North Korea insists its nuclear Erogram is peaceful, but has barred LN. inspectors forayearandahalf from making! ull surveys to determine how much plutonium the North has produced.

NEW HAMPSHIRE Plant workers feast on ejected lobsters As many as 200 lobsters a day are being sucked into a Newington power plant.
Many of the crustaceans are crushed at the end of their trip through the pipeline; many more are wolfed down by employees. Authorities have been investigating the surf-and-scarf scam since an officer with the fish and game department seized 28 live lobsters from a Public Service of New Hampshire worker headed home to his freezer. Joseph Couture had 508 lobsters stashed away, said Bruce Bonenfant, a Fish and Game officer. Couture said lobster gathering was widespread at the Schiller Station plant, "I'm just the one who got caught." Utility officials called it an isolated incident. Fish and Game officials aren't so sure.
They say employees have been taking home garbage bags stuffed with lobster for at least six years. Officials said they'll try to solve the problem. ANCHORAGE Six people killed in Alaska plane crash A small sightseeing plane crashed into a mountain and burned, killing six people aboard and seriously wounding a seventh. Authorities said the de Havilland Beaver crashed about 45 miles west of Kodiak, near Uganik Bay, Sunday. The plane was carrying six Europeans who were touring Kodiak's fiords and mountains, said Butch Tovsen, president of Uyak Air Service which operated the flight.
JACKSON Protesters promise peaceful week Two men who signed a petition calling the killing of abortion providers justifiable homicide promise a peaceful week of "spiritual warfare" at Mississippi's two abortion clinics. "You cannot be involved with us if you're even going to advocate violence," said Joseph Foreman of Missionaries to the Pre-born in Milwaukee. Protesters from at least nine states were expected to join the "No Place to Hide" demonstrations to begin today at the Jackson and Gulfport clinics of Joseph Booker, the only doctor known to perform abortions in the state. Foreman and Jackson activist Roy McMillan both acknowledged signing a petition that says it is justifiable to kill doctors who perform abortions.
