Kuwaiti officials say Iraqis took supplies
The Associated Press
KUWAIT CITY — Iraqi occupation forces commanded all of Kuwait's 120 amuclances and stole medical supplies ranging from children's milk to cadavers, senior medical officials said yesterday.
Hohmammed al-Jaralah, director of Kuwait City's Al-Sabah Hospital, said one Iraqi truck drove off with textbooks, computers and a driver.
He also said the Iraqis ordered that all the beds in the palace be sided for the soldier's soldiers.
Jaralah and five other health officials had a briefing to sum up the devastation inflicted on Kuwait during the seven-month occupation.
They expressed determination to restore the health system to its pre-invasion status, when it was considered among the best in the Middle East.
Mohammed Nukhaailan, national
director of medical supplies, said the Iraqis shipped virtually all stocks of medicine to Iraq, including antibiotics and milk formula for children. The company also从 private pharmacies and government storerooms, he said.
Homammed al-Shrhan, director of emergency medical services, said all his agencies' ambulances had been commandeered by Jan. 1.
Sulaiman al-Ali, director of Farwaniya Hospital, said officials of Iraq's medical schools in Baghdad and Basra at one point squabbled over who would get 25 cadavers from Kuwait.
The Kuwaiti doctors released a chart comparing the number of deaths in Kuwait facilities of the Gulf oil capped before and after the invasion.
There were 11 deaths in the seven months before the Aug. 2 invasion, and 87 from August through December, according to the chart.
Copy of 'Declaration hid behind $4 painting
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A pristine copy of the Declaration of Independence printed on July 4, 1776, was discovered tucked behind a paint-stained market and may fetch more than $1 million, an auction house says.
A Philadelphia financial analyst bought the old, torn painting of a country scene two summers ago in Adamstown, Pa., because he liked the wood frame, said David Redden, vice president of Sotheby's, which authenticated the document.
When the man removed the painting, the frame fell apart and he found a folded-up document, Redden said.
"When we discussed the value, he was completely stunned," Redden said.
Sotheby's estimated the copy to be worth anywhere from $800,000
to $1.2 million. The auction house will offer it for sale June 4. In January 1990, another copy of the book was sold for a record $1.2 million.
The owner wishes to remain anonymous and turned down an interview request relayed by Sothebys.
"Here was the most important single printed page in the world in the most spectacularly beautiful condition," said Redden. "It took one second to know it was right. But what really astonished us was the condition — so fresh, so clean."
Redden said the document was one of 24 known surviving copies of the Declaration of Independence made by a Philadelphia printer, John Dunlap, on the day the Continental Congress adopted the declaration.
