National Guard helps to keep skies friendly
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — President Bush asked the nation's governors to post National Guard troops at airports yesterday as a first step to take federal control of airline security and coax Americans back into the skies.
"This nation will not live in fear," he said.
Bush's plan envisions stationing 4,000-5,000 troops at the nation's 420 commercial airports for up to six months while the federal government prepares to step in. Also, many more in-flight air marshals would be trained and a federal agency would be set up to oversee the screening of passengers and luggage.
The president announced his program at a pep-rally event at O'Hare International Airport 16 days after suicide hijackers slammed jetliners into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
He urged the crowd not to give terrorism a victory by staying on the ground. "Get on the airlines, get about the business of America," Bush said. "Fly and enjoy America's great destination spots."
Bush authorized $500 million in grants to the airlines to strengthen cockpit doors and study technology that would allow air traffic
controllers to take control of a plane if the pilot was incapacitated.
the president's proposal stopped short of assigning federal workers to perform security duties at airports, as is done in some other countries. The U.S. Conference of Mayors said Bush hadn't gone far enough and appointed a task force, led by Los Angeles Mayor Jim Hahn, to come up with further security measures.
"We want a federal force that is equal to or even better than the ones they have in Israel and Germany and France," said executive director Tom Cochran. "We do not have faith in the airlines to develop a security system for our airports."
Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, D.S.D., said steps to improve security should be linked with efforts to provide unemployment compensation, health care and job training to the people affected by more than 100,000 layoffs in the airlines and related industries.
The government would oversee passenger and baggage security checks, and perform background checks on security personnel. Uniformed federal workers would manage all operations; federal and nonfederal workers would share the security work.

NEWARK, N.J. — FBI officials in New Jersey said yesterday that they were offering to help resolve minor immigration violations in exchange for leads in the terrorist attacks investigation.
"We're not just going to lock them up if they can provide good information for us," said special agent Sherrie Evanina.

At least 20 people have been detained in New Jersey on immigration violations for questioning in the hijackings.
Evanina said Immigration and Naturalization Services officials would work with immigrants if they had relevant, accurate information about the attacks.
INS representative Russ Bergeron said federal law allowed temporary visas for immigrants without U.S. legal status when they helped with criminal investigations.
attacks. Under federal law, they can be held indefinitely because their cases are considered civil, not criminal.
Lawyers and Arab-American groups nationwide have complained that authorities are detaining noncitizens of Middle Eastern descent who have no connections to the
Abe Jaloudi, an attorney, said some people had been detained for violations that would not have resulted in detentions before the attacks.
"Most, if not everyone, who's being detained has no information to offer," Jaloudi said.
Sandra Carroll, of the Newark FBI office, conceded "not a huge part of our tips" are coming from detainees.
In other developments, a hijacker suspected of flying one of the two jets into the World Trade Center bought a plane ticket to Spain a few months ago from a travel agency.
Munther Ammar, the owner of Apollo International Travel, said Mohamed Atta bought a one-way ticket to Madrid with $550 cash the first week in July.
Spanish newspapers have reported that Atta met with several Islamic extremists at a beach resort near Barcelona before retiring to Miami, where he was taking flying lessons.
