Muslims resort to
cannibalism
UNITED NATIONS ? Muslims
who have been cut off from aid
in eastern Bosnia have resorted
to cannibalism to survive,
Bosnia's envoy to the United
Nations said.
U.N. Ambassador Muhammed
Sacirbey did not elaborate, and
there was no way to confirm his
claim.
"I received a call from the military
commander in Tuzla who
told me that people in these
besieged enclaves in eastern
Bosnia were now eating the dead
in order to survive," Sacirbey
told reporters Tuesday evening.
Up to 200,000 Muslims are
reported trapped in several
enclaves in eastern Bosnia, and
U.N. efforts to reach them with
food and medical aid have been
stymied by Serb fighters who
refuse to let relief convoys
through.
Officials in the Bosnian capital
stopped distributing U.N. relief
supplies in the city on Friday,
saying Sarajevans would forgo
aid in protest until the U.N. gets
aid to eastern Bosnia.

By LEA CLAYTON <
Assistant News Editor (
President Bill Clinton set a new
economic agenda for the nation i
Wednesday night in his economic '
address to a joint session of
Congress.
The president outlined a tough !
plan to control the budget deficit 1
and create jobs through tax increas- 1
es and spending cuts.
Previously, many in Washington 1
doubted the new president's effec- 1
tiveness and ability to set an agen- '
da geared to pass the issues on 1
which he was elected.
Allowing homosexuals in the 1
military quickly grew out of 1
Clinton's control as it exploded in
the media. Critics thought his pow- (
er was weakening as he clashed 1
with both Congress and the mili- *
tary.
He lost control of his ability to
set the nation's agenda. Moreover,
the public was getting angry at the
president for stalling on those
issues that got him elected, mainly,
the economy.
The faith of the American people,
however, was restored
