Swimming in filth, refugees cope with water shortage
The Associated Press
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — With a record flood filling most of the city with filthy water, city officials said yesterday they were considering stringing a hose across 22 miles of prairie to bring in clean water so people could at least wash their hands.
"What people take for granted day to day, like taking a shower and washing clothes, isn't going to happen for quite a while," said National Guard Capt. Greg Bowen. "The sanitary conditions are primitive at best."
The Red River that had flooded 75 percent of the city also shut down the municipal water treatment plant. And there was no water service for the estimated 10 percent of the city's 50,000 inhabitants who hadn't left yet.
"The toilet part is the worst," said Richard George. "We just flush it with melted snow. We were melting snow on the barbecue grill."
Portable bathrooms and drinking water stations were scattered throughout the city's still-dry extreme west end. In public and motel restrooms, the stench built up until crews could come by periodically with flushing water.
The city also supplied most of the water for Grand Forks Air Force Base, where more than 2,000 of the city's refugees were staying.
The base still had a reserve of clean water, was pumping some water from a nearby small town and planned to bring in 20 large tanker
trucks, said Capt. Byron Spencer.
President Clinton planned to fly over the flooded area and visit the Air Force base today, a White House representative said.
City officials met yesterday afternoon to discuss the proposal for a long water pipeline.
The city water treatment plant and sewer system are expected to be flooded for weeks, and Bowen said the temporary hose or pipeline also could be used to speed up the process of restoring service once the flood ebbs. The city uses about 8 million gallons of water a day.
Across the river in East Grand Forks, Minn., Mayor Lynn Stausa said that most of his city of 9,000 was submerged.
"Some of the homes are floating off their foundations," he said.
North Dakota Gov. Ed Schafer said the cleanup alone would cost more than $40 million. Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., said the cost of repairs could exceed $1 billion.
The river, moving slowly north across the flat terrain of the Red River Valley, was edging toward an expected crest at 54 feet, 26 feet above flood stage.
Farther north, about 140 miles from Grand Forks, the flood is expected to hit Winnipeg, Manitoba, in a couple of weeks on its way to vast Lake Winnipeg and eventually to Hudson Bay.
Students whose Grand Forks schools are closed started enrolling yesterday at nearby rural schools, where they confronted unfamiliar textbooks and often lacked such basics as a pen or paper.
"They're in semi-shock. They just left their homes 48 hours ago," said Larimore school Superintendent John Jankowski. "When you're told to leave your home, do you think about taking your homework with you?"
His rural district of almost 600 students already had admitted 20 young refugees.
The University of North Dakota in Grand Forks simply canceled the last two weeks of its semester.
University student Jason Tomlinson called his parents in Louisville, Ky., telling them he was coming home as soon as the Humane Society rescued his cat for him.
"If I didn't have a cat, I wouldn't be here," he said.
He said his parents understood his situation.
Russians blocking in treasures
"The Ohio flooded my parents out just a couple months ago," he said. "It's following the family."
Cars keep moving van from taking jewels, clothes to next site
The Associated Press
"No one has come to blows outside of the Corcoran Gallery," State Department representative Nicholas Burns said in reporting the only good news in the contract battle.
WASHINGTON — The imperial Romanov jewels were stuck in a museum vault yesterday, hostage to a dispute between Moscow and organizers of the $100 million traveling exhibit meant to showcase friendly Russian-U.S. relations.
Instead, the standoff continued a few blocks from the White House, where Russian Embassy drivers have sat outside the gallery since last Wednesday, blocking a tractor-trailer carrying the costume and art portions of the exhibit.
Former congressman James Symington, chairman of the foundation, which promotes U.S.-Russian ties, said the nonprofit group had a clear contract with the Russian government to run the exhibit, which closed April 13 in Washington.
Attorneys for the Russian Embassy and the American-Russian Cultural Cooperation Foundation, which claims a contract right to exhibit the treasures in several U.S. cities, met as the State Department remained on the sidelines offering suggestions, but not acting as a mediator.
Its next stop is supposed to be the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, from May 11 to July 20, then Memphis and San Diego. Talks were under way for other stops, including New York.
As heavy rain pounded on the trailer, feelings were running so high that an agreement to let it wait outside the Russian Embassy instead of blocking the street fell apart.
But the Russian Embassy declared
"No one has come to blows outside of the Corcoran Gallery."
Nicholas Burns State Department spokesperson
that the foundation violated several terms of the contract, including specifications for high-security cases for the imperial jewels.
The foundation has spent more than $1 million to cover initial outlays for the show and had expected to "pull into the black" with revenues after the third or fourth stop, Symington said.

Witnesses say sergeant was sought
ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, Md. — Two trainees who accused a former Army drill sergeant of rape made no secret of wanting to have sex with him, witnesses testified yesterday.
One of the women said she thought he was sexy and paraded by his office in short shorts and a bikini top, Pfc. Divina Scott testified at the court-martial of Staff Fgt. Delmar Simpson.
"She said she thought he was sexy, and if the chance was given
Scott and Jones, however, characterized the woman as a compulsive liar.
to her that she would have sex with him," added Pfc. Carnesia Jones.
Both said the other accuser told them that she, too, wanted to have sex with Simpson. Jones said she told her "he had a sexy bald head."
Simpson, 32, is one of 12 Aberdeen Proving Ground staff members charged with criminal sexual misconduct. He is charged with 54 crimes ranging from sexual invitations to rape involving 13
women from his former company. Simpson already has pleaded guilty to having sex with 11 women in violation of Army regulations and faces up to 32 years in prison.
He could be sentenced to life in prison if found guilty of a single rape conviction.
In a major setback for the defense, the judge in the case ruled Friday that drill sergeants have so much power over trainees that they don't need to use a weapon or threaten force to be found guilty of rape.
