Views on Health Care Aren't Universal
Date: 26 September 1993
By Anne Cronin
Anne Cronin
Americans are sure that there is a problem with health care - three quarters of all respondents in last week's New York Times/CBS News Poll thought that the current system was heading toward a crisis - but they don't always agree on what exactly is wrong and the ways it should be fixed. Some of the disparities reflected the current system's problems. Poorer people were more likely to be dissatisfied about the current coverage and cost of health care. Black respondents were far less likely than white ones to say that their families had enough coverage

SOMEDAY, maybe every pollutant will be famous for 15 minutes. Right now it's asbestos's turn. In a city filled with threats, environmental and otherwise, asbestos has nearly become an obsession. New York City had a crash program to find and remove dangerous asbestos in schools after a 1986 Federal law. Now it has another. Politicians rage, parents protest, investigators investigate and lots of people worry, including kids who are attending schools marked by the modern version of a witch's hex mark, duct tape.

HOW do newspapers that rarely break even and frequently cost their owners money survive? Only when the owners are motivated by moral commitment rather than financial gain, say the publishers of two minority newspapers: M. Paul Redd, who owns The Westchester County Press, a weekly and the only black-owned paper in Westchester, and Gustavo Roca, owner of La Calle, a monthly Hispanic newspaper, which Mr. Roca began publishing in 1989. Mr. Redd, who bought The Westchester County Press in 1986, said he is 66 years old, 10 days older than The County Press, which began publishing on Aug. 11, 1927.

AMSOUTH PLANS JOB CUTS AND EARNINGS CHARGE
Date: 25 September 1993
By Bloomberg News
Bloomberg News
The AmSouth Corporation said yesterday that it planned to cut up to 750 jobs, or 12.5 percent of its work force, and take an $11 million charge to earnings as part of a reorganization. The company expected to save more than $20 million annually from the multiyear program, which began in July with a management realignment. It will take an $11 million charge in the third quarter from setting aside cash for early retirement benefits. AmSouth said the charge would not affect net income, because it would be made up by a reduction in credit quality costs, including a substantial loan recovery. AmSouth said the actions would help it absorb eight Florida banking companies, which would expand AmSouth's Florida network to 125 offices from 24.

MCI SAYS COURT RULES IN ITS FAVOR ON RATE FILING
Date: 25 September 1993
By Bloomberg News
Bloomberg News
The MCI Communications Corporation said yesterday that a United States District Court judge freed the company of an injunction requiring it to file specific rate tariffs for major contract customers. The injunction stemmed from a complaint by the American Telephone and Telegraph Company requesting that MCI disclose all the rates it charges to its customers. The complaint was dismissed. Yesterday's ruling reverses an earlier ruling ordering MCI to disclose all rate schedules to insure that it is not charging customers differently from published rates filed with the Federal Communications Commission. The commission required MCI to file rates in the spring, after extended litigation in Federal court. A.T.& T., the dominant carrier in the $77 billion United States long-distance market, has long been required to file all tariff schedules with the F.C.C.
