Bush also dismissed concerns in Asia and around the world about his lumping of North Korea, Iran and Iraq in a so called “axis of evil.” Bush says the three nations threaten the United States and the rest of the globe with their potential to use and sell weapons of mass destruction. “They understand our position,” Bush, referring to allies, said tersely at the PASSPORT PHOTOS While you wait. lstsetslo.9s Additional sets 8.95 J C.O.

At least six people were injured, including a 20-year-old woman who broke her collarbone after jumping from a second-floor balcony. Fire battalion chief David Douglas said three of the people killed in the fire were residents and the fourth was a vis itor. The remains were found in the first floor breezeway. Thirty-six people - many of them students at UNC-G, Greensboro College, N.C. Agricultural & Technical State University and other colleges - lived in the building. On Saturday, investigators finished combing through the charred apartment building and collecting evidence. Douglas said the investigators from Greensboro’s fire and police depart ments would meet early in the week before releasing their conclusion about where and how the fire may have start ed. beginning of a meeting with Koizumi. Bush also was asked about the reces sion-plaguedjapanese economy and his plans to urge Koizumi to enact long promised economic reforms. “I plan on talking about what a great reformer he is,” Bush told reporters. “We’ve got confidence in his ability to lead this nation.” At the start of a three-nation Asian tour, the president publicly embraced Koizumi and his agenda while privately prodding the prime minister to take the painful steps toward reversing a decade-long economic slump, aides said. Bush hopes his support will tame Koizumi’s critics.

Small Effect Predicted for Campaign Bill By Wes Mission Staff Writer Some N.C. legislators and political pundits say they doubt a federal cam paign finance reform bill will have much impact on elections, despite being part ly based on N.C. law. Early Thursday morning, the U.S. House passed the Shays-Meehan Bill, which would limit soft money contribu tions and regulate issue advocacy ads that mention candidates. The Senate is expected to take up the bill sometime next week. The bill contains a provision from Rep. David Price, D-N.C., that would require candidates to be responsible for their political advertisements.

Bridget Lowell, Price’s press secre tary, said “Stand by your Ad” is based partly on a 1999 N.C. state law that held candidates responsible for their ads. Lowell said the requirement would improve the tone of campaigns. “The law that was so successful (in North Carolina) will now be imple mented across the country,” she said. But Thad Beyle, UNC political sci ence professor, said the Shays-Meehan Bill, if passed, would not have any imme diate effect on campaigning nationwide. “You’re going to reform some things in the Tate-Tumer-Kuralt Auditorium of the School of Social Work.

Beyle said the very nature of political campaigning, which relies heavily on expensive television advertisements, has made it necessary for candidates to raise large amounts of money. “Politics is made of money right now,” Beyle said. But N.C. Sen. Virginia Foxx, R- Watauga, said she thinks the “Stand by your Ad” portion of the bill would have a positive impact on elections. “Whoever puts out an ad should have to identify himself or herself,” Foxx said. Points of Interest The Center for European Studies For the Record The Friday article “Providing Nourishment for a Growing Devotion to the Plant World” incorrectly stated that Peter White designed a cake based on the book “Vascular Floor of the Carolinas." The correct title of the book is “Vascular Flora of the Carolinas." The caption for the photo accompa nying the article incorrectly identifies Peter White as Peter Smith.

But Foxx added that she is worried that the Shays-Meehan Bill, if passed, might restrict First Amendment rights. Foxx added that campaign spending is not necessarily a bad thing. N.C. Sen. Elbe Kinnaird, D-Orange, said she is pleased by the bill’s success in the U.S. House but believes the bill is too limited to be effective. “It is less than I would hope for,” she said. Kinnaird said she has limited funding from individuals and groups during her past campaigns. She said she hopes the national bills would call attention to state campaign laws and prompt a change.
