South American officials battle cholera, seek help
The Associated Press
LA PAZ, Bolivia - South American health officials yesterday called for international assistance to combat a cholera epidemic that has killed more than 1,200 people and is expected to spread.
Bolivia's health minister, Mario Zamora, told a meeting in the capital city of Sacre that the internauclio could should help set up a fund for the effort.
Jamary and has since spread to Colombia, Ecuador, Brazil and Chile. The World Health Organization predicted that cholera could spread throughout Latin America.
Colombia's health minister,
Camilo Gonzales, said that one of the priorities for Latin America was to provide safe drinking water and to improve sanitation. The disease is spread through fecal-contaminated water and food.
The meeting in Surce, 350 miles southeast of La Paiz, included health ministers from Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela as well as health officials from Brazil, Argentina and Cuba.
The epidemic began in Peru in late
Also participated were the vice minister of health from Spain, Jose Luis Norgea, and the director of the Health Organization, Carkle Guerra.
Guerría on Friday recommended a $12 billion Latin American emergency health fund, saying the epidemic could eventually strike 6 million people and kill 42.000.
Bolivia has not reported the presence of cholera, but officials fear cholera eventually will cross its borders.
An estimated 150,000 people have been affected by cholera and at least 1,200 have died in the most serious outbreak. It has hit South America this century.
The disease is mainly affecting the poor, who do not have access to water suitable for drinking and sewage systems.
Those infected with cholera suffer from diarrhea and dehydration that can prove fatal if not quickly treated. The spread of cholera in Peru has been aggravated by a health workers' strike.
White House guards Sununu
Democrats question necessity of travel in military aircraft The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The White House yesterday defended Chief of Staff John Sununu's frequent travel on military jets, saying President Bush needs to be able to reach him at all times.
But Democrats challenged Sumuim's use of military craft on fundraising trips for the Republican Party, as well as on vacations and tours at A House panel said it would demand Government Accounting Office probe.
Vice President Dan Quinyle was
among the administration officials
to visit the campus.
"He knows what is right and what is wrong, and I don't think he did anything wrong."
Defense Secretary Dick Cheney said Sunumu was following a policy, established in 1987 by then-President Reagan, saying that both the White House chief of staff and the national defense always travel on military aircraft.
"Both those officials need secure voice communications at all times with Washington and with the White House. Chenese said on CBS TV's *This Morning*.
"I don't think you want those two senior officials out of touch," he said.
"It could create some real problems if the president couldn't reach them."
The Washington Post and U.S. News & World Report reported over the weekend that Sununu has taken more than 60 trips over the past 27 months on military jets, almost half back to New England and his New Hampshire home, but also to Colorado ski resorts.
The trips included official business as well as personal and political travel, the accounts said.
Rep. Vic Fazio, D-Calif., vice chairman of the House Democratic Caucus and head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said taxpayers deserved a full accounting of the potential misuse of public money and a reimbursement of every penny spent by John Sumu for his own personal pleasure and agenda.
The House Government Operations Committee will ask the GAO today to examine the propriety and legality of the U.S. military jets, a committee aide said.
According to Pentagon records, Sununu usually flies in a C-20, the sleek, 12 passenger, twin engine jet of the Gullstream III corporat
The Air Force keeps several C-205 at Andrews Air Force Base for such VIPs as Barbara Bush. President Bush himself flies aboard a C-205 to arrive at airports too small to accommodate his jumbo jet, Air Force One.
Congress scuttled an attempt two years ago to secure a C20 for the use of House Speaker Thomas Foley, D-Wash.
A White House aide who insisted on anonymity said, "All of Sununu's personal and political travel has been attended at full commercial rates."
Commercial airfares would cover only a fraction of the cost of flying on a C-20. The Air Force lists the C-20's hourly operating rate at $3,945, not counting the salaries of the five-member crew.
Aide Ed Rogers said Summah had no comment on his travel arrangements. Rogers refused to answer questions about the reports.
U. S. News cited two sources as estimating that Sunumu had spent at least $45,000 of his own money on trips. The Republican Party had picked up the tab for his political travels.
U. S. News said Summa, a former three-term governor of New Hampshire, had used government aircraft at least 148 times on 63 trips.
"From what I read of what John Sumuum did, there was nothing inappropriate." "Quagly said on NBC TV'S "Meet the Press." "Sumuum has worked his heart out for the president."
A White House representative, John Herrick, said in a statement from Camp David that Sununu's travel had been in accordance with official authorization for chief of staff travel.
