STATE Justices argue fate of mentally retarded COLUMBIA (AP) - Chief Justice Jean Toal says she doesn’t want the U.S. Supreme Court to again overturn several South Carolina death penalty cases because her justices didn’t go far enough to protect defen dants. On Tuesday, Toal heard argu ments on how to set procedures to determine if defendants were mentally retarded after the U.S. Supreme Court banned the exe cution of the retarded last year. Defense lawyer John Blume says the case could affect about 10 of the 71 inmates on South Carolina’s death row, while Assistant Attorney General Don Zelenka said as many as 20 death sentences could hang in the bal ance. The state wants judges to de cide on their own whether an in mate is mentally retarded, while lawyers for six death row in mates and a man awaiting a death penalty trial want a jury to determine if a defendant is mentally retarded. House approves employment bill COLUMBIA (AP) - The House has given key approval to a bill that supporters say would strengthen the state’s law allow ing employers to let go of work ers for any or no cause as long as no contract has been signed. The employment-at-will bill passed second reading Tuesday by a 102-9 vote. After a routine third reading, it will be sent to the Senate. “We want the message sent loud and clear that employers have the right to hire and dis charge employees free from threats of lawsuits and govern ment interference,” said Rep. Harry Cato, R-Travelers Rest, who is chairman of the House Labor, Commerce and Industry Committee. Opponents of the bill said the courts had legitimate concerns about workers’ rights that should not be ignored. NATION U.S. plans direct talks with N. Korea WASHINGTON (AP) - The State Department’s No. 2 official on Tuesday gave senators the Bush administration’s strongest assurance to date that the United States intends to have di rect talks with North Korea on its nuclear programs. Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage also ac knowledged that the Pentagon might bolster U.S. forces in the Pacific Ocean in case “North Korea would, in some fashion, try to take advantage of our fo cus on Iraq.” Less than a week after Armitage appeared before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee explaining why war might be necessary against Iraq, he returned to tell often-skepti cal lawmakers why a different approach was needed with North Korea, which he conced ed poses a greater nuclear threat than Iraq. He said Iraq has stronger ties to terrorists and that diplomat ic efforts with North Korea are relatively new, while Iraq’s de fiance has lasted 12 years. Also, North Korea’s weapons pro grams seem to be tied to the country’s dire economic needs 1 while Iraq is pursuing weapons “to dominate, to intimidate and to attack,” he said. Report: Budget gaps up about 50 percent WASHINGTON (AP) - The flood of red ink for state govern ments just keeps rising: Expected budget deficits jumped by close to 50 percent in the past three months, and the situation is expected to worsen, the National Conference of State Legislatures said Tuesday. The deteriorating situation could prompt more cuts in a wide range of programs such as elementary schools, health care for the poor and more. Additionally, it will increase pressure on state lawmakers to raise taxes. WORLD U.N. teams visit 10 sites; pressure rises BAGHDAD, IRAQ (AP) - In a busy day across Iraq, arms mon itors checked 10 missile, chemi cal and other potential weapons production sites Tuesday, as U.S. diplomatic pressure mount ed to possibly cut short the U.N. inspection plans. A senior Iraqi official said Baghdad might consider enlist ing foreigners as witnesses for Iraqi weapons scientists who refuse to submit to secret U.N. interviews. Inspectors have ^ complained about interviews t monitored by Iraqi officials. The Bush administration will make a bid for Security Council support for its tough line on Iraq on Wednesday, when Secretary of State Colin Powell is to pre sent what is billed as fresh evi dence of Iraqi deception of in spectors and of prohibited weapons programs. The U.N. teams have found no such major violations of the U.N. ban on Iraqi chemical, biologi cal and nuclear arms programs. Group attacks city hall in Venezuela CARACAS, VENEZUELA (AP)- 4 Supporters of President Hugo Chavez opened fire Tuesday on the offices of Caracas’ opposition mayor Tuesday, injuring four people in an attack that marred the government’s commemora tion of the 11th anniversary of a failed coup led by Chavez. The brief assault on the offices of Mayor Alfredo Pena began af ter government officials, includ ing Vice President Jose Vicente Rangel, honored the coup an niversary at a nearby plaza. When Rangel and the other of ficials left the area, about 20 Chavez supporters fired hand guns and threw rocks at city hall. Three police officers and a civilian were injured, said the head of the mayor’s security of fice, Ramon Muchacho. A fire of ficial said the injuries were caused by rocks and sticks and that nobody was hit by the gun fire.
