I STATE BRIEFS S.C. might see slow recession recovery COLUMBIA-South Carolina’s reliance on manufacturing and tourism brought a recession to the state faster than the rest of the nation and may make the bad times last longer, economists warns. “I’m a little worried that this time South Carolina will come out of it a little slower than the rest of the country,” said Mark Vitner, an economist at Wachovia Securities in Charlotte. Vitner and other economists said the seeds of South Carolina’s recession actually were planted late last year when unemployment began to rise. The state’s jobless rate has jumped from 3.6 percent in September 2000 to 5.3 percent one year later. October’s jobless report will be released Wednesday. A year ago, textile plants and other factories had begun laying off workers, a trend that has intensified in recent months. Meanwhile, sales tax receipts were weakening and financial markets had begun to decline, said Frank Hefner, economist at the College of Charleston. “I was looking at a third- or fourth-quarter recovery. Of course, that was before Sept. 11,” said Hefner, who told the state Board of Economic Advisors at an October 2000 meeting that the state could be headed for a recession in early 2001.

NAr [ON br: ^fs More attacks could worsen recession WASHINGTON - The United States is officially in its first recession in a decade, - but many economists believe the downturn will turn out to be short and mild. Of course, they hasten to add that this favorable forecast hinges on a big unknown — whether there will be more terrorist attacks. “We think it is going to be a mild recession,” said David Wyss, chief economist at Standard & Poor’s in New York. “But that assumes nothing else goes wrong.” Analysts said all bets would be off if terrorists were to succeed at staging some type of repeat of the horrors of Sept. 11. On Monday, the National Bureau of Economic Research, the arbiters of when recessions begin and end, officially declared that a recession began back in March. The panel ot six respected academic economists said that the country, which has been enduring slow growth for more than a year, might have been able to avoid a full-blown recession if the terrorist attacks had not occurred.

WORLD BRIEFS Two dead in latest Mideast violence AFULA, ISRAEL - Palestinians opened fire in the center of a northern Israeli town Tuesday, killing two Israelis and wounding dozens, police said. Just before noon, at least two Palestinian gunmen dressed as civilians began spraying fire from Kalashnikov submachine guns at Israelis at the central bus station in Afula, police and witnesses said. “They shot the first person (they encountered) in the head,” witness Mordechai Cohen told Israel Radio. The gunmen proceeded to a nearby open-air market and continued firing before being cornered by Israeli police officers and an army reservist in a parking lot, where they were killed in a firefight, said police spokesman Gil fueiman. The militant Islamic Jihad group and the A1 Aqsa Brigades, a militia affiliated with Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat’s Fatah group, claimed responsibility for what they said was a joint attack to avenge the deaths of Palestinian militants killed by Israel. The attack came as U.S. mediators held a second day of meetings with Israeli officials, and hours after Israeli troops pulled out of the last West Bank town they held. - IT HAPPENED NEWS YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED CONFRONTATION IN THE PHILIPPINES: Seeking to escape a withering air assault by the Philippine military, heavily armed Muslim rebels fled a besieged compound on Tuesday with dozens of hostages that they had roped together as human shields. an IPIKDC 6780X2000 If | I Our associates are: ll I (Hairstylists j (Aim 6dmis ton Cedric Xicholes I Cindy Criff in Cindy Dauyhn Oichie Moody Denise Mincey B n | 19 Dai ye Jirmstrony Marsha (Ream || I Manicurist (fonnie (H uyhendall Specializing Jn /'filing, dolor, JHairsluling i/exturizing, taxing |j, j; UormalSfgtes £ Perming j" la^y „ ) r rjixz&aiL } HAIR SALON * 3214 Millwood Columbia, SC 29205 VSVJLl/W fcLLM MOftSSlONAl lilIRCAIt 803-256-6419 I Our professionals will get you ready for the holidays! with the latest styles, cuts, color & nail care Visit us at our new location in the Vista! 717-A Lady Street Owners/Stylists Pia Engles • Steve Br inchi Hairstylists Kay Vital • Heather Elmgren | Nail Techs Lois Tran • Johnny Duong PIA and STEVE'S... a full service salon 256-8060__J
