Germans fear leaks
from Soviet ships
HAMBURG, Germany ? The
Soviet Union sank two nuclearpowered
ships in the Baltic Sea,
and the German government is
worried about possible radioactive
contamination, a news magazine
reported Saturday.
It was unclear whether
radioactivity was leaking from
the vessels, Der Spiegel said in a
summary of a report in its next
issue, to be released today. It
said the sunken vessels were one
civilian ship and one military
ship.
The report did not say when
the vessels were sunk.
The magazine gave no sources
for its report, which it said was
from early scanty information
made available to the German
government.
The Soviets also disposed of
contaminated reactor parts and
nuclear waste in the Baltic,
against all safety rules for dealing
with radioactivity, Der
Spiegel said.
The magazine said the German
government feared that radioactive
contamination could enter
the food chain through fish in the
Baltic.

; U.S. government pays
for excess steel
d CHARLESTON ? The federal
e government has paid hundreds of
d millions of dollars to a North
n Charleston company for a slockll
pile of steel it doesn't need, a
t, Pentagon official has told a
Charleston newspaper.
:n For the last nine years,
k'- Macalloy sold the government
in ferrochromium, a super-hard
:s metal used in aircraft engines.
:r The contract means the govts
ernment has enough ferrochromi)f
um to support a 50-year war widi
a world superpower, said Colin
10 McMillan, a former defense
0, department procurement official
ly who investigated the Macalloy
:s contract.
le The contract is supposed to
:d end this year, but McMillan said
1. the defense department wanted to
r- end it two years ago.
at "When it became clear that we
rn no longer had die need for the
to ferrochrcmium ... we needed to
cease the program," McMillan,
d, who left the government when
re George Bush left office, told The
e. Post and Courier of Charleston
le recently. "Anything that's been
>n processed since then has certainto
ly not done the country any
good."
