NATION/WORLD Governors work on health care UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN State heads meet discuss universal medical coverage WASHINGTON — The nation's governors, sayaging universal health care was a moral imperative, began formal consideration yesterday on a proposal to extend coverage to all U.S. citizens. The Associated Press ation calls for guaranteed access to healthcare for every citizen and minimum federal standards to reduce medical liability costs. The proposal adopted by a committee of the National Governors Associ- Under what is being billed as a managed competitive approach, the government would maintain a national database through which consumers could receive information about the cost and quality of health care services. In addition, the government would expand its support for primary and preventive health care programs, including periodic health screenings, prenatal care, well-baby care and childhood immunizations. "Everybody's looking for a broad-based basic framework," said South Carolina Gov. Carroll Campbell, a Republican and member of the committee that designed the plan. The full association will vote tomorrow on the plan, which will be presented to Congress and President Bill In addition to implementing nationwide coverage, Clinton promised an annual spending cap on health care, tax changes to discourage rapid increases in drug prices, insurance reforms including a universal claim form and allowing small businesses to band together to buy more affordable coverage. Clinton. The governors will meet today with Clinton to discuss health care and other issues. Clinton made universal health care a central theme of his campaign last year, but has not yet unveiled any health-care plans. Death of sailor prompts outcry Lifting ban on gays could prevent future deaths, mother says The Associated Press CHICAGO — When Dorothy Hajdys last talked with her 22-year-old sailor son, he promised he would be home soon. The next time she saw him, he was in a coffin — beaten to death. Seaman Allen Schindler was killed in Japan, a month after he told the Navy he was gay. His mother grieves, but hopes President Bill Clinton's plan to lift the military ban on homosexuals will shield others from tragedy. "It's too late for Allen," Hajdys said. "But maybe this will save someone else's life. "I think the ban should be lifted. But it's not going to do anything unless the military is educated." Schindler's death last October has become a rallying point for homosexual activists, who contend it was a classic case of gay bashing. In Japan, the Navy recently held the military equivalent of a grand jury hearing to determine whether Airman Apprentice Terry M. Helvely. going to go to college." Twelve hours before he died, he phoned his mother at her home in south suburban Chicago Heights. Two weeks before he died, Schindler consulted a military attorney, seeking a discharge. The next day she received word. Her son was dead. "He said he was getting out of the Navy," she said. "He would be home before Christmas for good. He was Hadys says that in recent weeks, she has learned much about discrimination against gays. But her crusade is for her son — not a movement. "I'm not doing this for the gays," she said. "There are a lot of people hearing about what happened to my son that wouldn't have heard 21, of Westland, Mich., will stand trial for murder. otherwise. "I don't want this to happen to any baby else's son." Or to another of her own "There's no way he's going in," she said. "They killed my one son. No way they're going to touch the other one." Her 17-year-old, William, had talked with a Navy recruiter, but has since changed his mind. Aspin faces questions about gays WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Les Aspin must answer some of the most complex issues involving privacy and the sexual conduct of troops before President Bill Clinton can issue an executive order allowing homosexuals in the military, officials say. The Associated Press The questions he is studying include the possible segregation of homosexuals from heterosexuals, whether in military units or in living quarters, as is now the situation for female troops in many cases. Studying such questions doesn't necessarily mean they might be implemented, but they present a plethora of problems that Aspin, military leaders and Congress must wrestle with in the coming months. See us for the latest in sportswear and special occassion dressing. Some of the questions that must be answered before the issuance of an executive order include: bat units or fighting ships where heterosexual women are now excluded? - Should there be a code of conduct regulating the behavior of heterosexuals toward homosexuals in order to prohibit harassment on the basis of sexual orientation? SPRING FASHIONS ARE ARRIVING... Will there be a need for extensive sensitivity training to eradicate bigotry? Will the Uniform Code of Military Justice need to be changed in order to allow consensual sodomy between heterosexuals if the law is changed to allow such activity among homosexuals? Should homosexuals be barred from ground com- Of great concern are the questions involving the policy changes that would affect the tens of thousands of homosexuals who have been kicked out of the military in the past and who may now demand reinstatement, including back pay and promotions.
