Man in the News; Stealthy Capital Go-Between: Nicholas Edmund Calio
Date: 04 July 1992

Nicholas E. Calio, the White House liaison to Congress who shepherded the negotiations that yielded this week's $5 billion urban aid package, says he is most effective when he remains invisible and lets more senior officials take the credit for policy successes. Since taking the job in February, Mr. Calio has been successful in keeping his stealth profile. He is still not a household name, even in Congress, where he blends in with the army of lobbyists who like him stalk Capitol Hill wearing striped suspenders and tasseled loafers, and who play golf with the top staff members who write the nation's laws.

Action News, touted as the Arab world's first tabloid and filled with the staple tales of love and gore, burst onto newsstands three months ago and has shaken the foundations of the stodgy Egyptian press. The weekly paper, which often sells out quickly, is now the second largest in the country, with a circulation of 750,000 copies, just behind Al Ahram, with nearly one million daily.

At Work; Bidding the Wage Wars Goodbye

When Ron Moore went to New York last spring to appear on a television show, he was immune to the enticements of that holy city of conspicuous consumption. Not for Mr. Moore, an avowed skinflint, designer celery at triple-digit prices in the latest Manhattan chic-ery. Mr. Moore and his wife, Melodie, run Skinflint News, a monthly journal of frugality and practical advice, out of their Palm Harbor, Fla., home. Mr. Moore is no mere sunshine skinflint. Because he knew the television appearance would give him a $50 food allowance , he packed a brown bag at home. "I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a fried bologna sandwich with mustard, a huge bag of popcorn and an orange from a neighbor's tree," Mr. Moore recounted in the May issue of Skinflint News. He ate doughnuts at the noon-time taping, during which he suggested such money-saving strategies as collecting the final slivers of bar soap and grinding them in a food processor into laundry powder. He saved his real appetite for the airline lunch on the flight back to Tampa-St. Petersberg and arrived home with the $50 intact. "It went into the general fund," he said.

The people who live here in the hazy valleys cut by the Ohio and Big Sandy Rivers, where the air has been among the most polluted in the country, are benefiting from cleaner air these days, thanks to changes in weather patterns as well as to a law passed two years ago. President Bush saluted that law, the Clean Air Act, and said it would "make the 1990's the era for clean air."

Now his critics, acknowledging that he often took strong pro-environment stands in the first two years of his Administration, complain that the recession has steered him from his course. Nowhere is that criticism more in evidence than in the attacks on Mr. Bush for his approach to the Clean Air Act. 1 CHANGE IN THE BUSH CAMPAIGN The latest unemployment figures have caused Bush campaign strategists to abandon their confidence in a coming economic recovery that the President could ride to victory in November. That change may portend a more negative fall campaign than either Mr. Bush himself or his advisers have predicted. 1 The Clinton camp hired an aggressive New York ad agency. 7 LIFE IN A TRAILER Nearly 16 million Americans now live in mobile homes. For the most part they are people who, if not in poverty, are only one rung above it, people who grasp at the American dream but can clutch only a fragment. 1 THE BATTLE OF THE SHORELINE After years of legal wrangling and a Supreme Court decision this week, David H. Lucas and the South Carolina Coastal Council are left with the question that brought them together in the first place: When is a beach house a public nuisance? 6 YUCCA MOUNTAIN CONFRONTATION When an earthquake rattled southern Nevada a few days ago, at least two things did not shake: the competing positions in the battle over whether the area should be the home of a proposed nuclear-waste repository. 6 WHERE THE FOUNDERS GATHERED For the second straight year, Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia has been designated a particularly endangered historic site. The Government has promised to refurbish it, but the promise appears threatened by budget constraints. 8 THE NAVY'S NEW CHIEF The Acting Secretary of the Navy is a Tennessee native, a Foreign Service veteran, a former spokesman at both the White House and the Pentagon. To right the naval service, which is listing from its sex-abuse scandal, he'll need all that experience, and more. 8 The Army charged a Reserve sergeant with raping a solider. 8 THE MAN WHO BROKERED URBAN AID Man in the News: Nicholas E.

JUNE 28-JULY 4: The Economy; A Jump in Unemployment For Second Straight Month Is Bad News for Bush
Date: 05 July 1992
By Steven Greenhouse
Steven Greenhouse
Although President Bush has presided over three and a half years of unusually slow economic growth, his campaign staff had been encouraged by studies showing that voters are influenced heavily by how the economy does in the six months before Election Day. But Bush supporters who were cheered by the economic pickup in the first three months of the year suffered a rude shock last week when the Government announced that the jobless rate had risen from 7.5 percent in May to 7.8 percent in June, its highest level in eight years. It was the second large jump in two months; the April rate was 7.2 percent. "It's not good news," President Bush said. Instead, he hailed as good news the Federal Reserve's decision to cut the discount rate to 3 percent; it was the lowest level since 1963 for the rate at which the Fed lends banks money. The President and many economists hope the move will spur banks to lend more and businesses and consumers to borrow more. But many analysts say the main reason the economy seems to be held down by invisible weights is that the debt explosion of the Reagan years is preventing consumer spending from taking off.

THE 1992 CAMPAIGN: White House; Bad Economic News Forces Bush To Refocus Re-election Strategy
Date: 04 July 1992
By Michael Wines
Michael Wines
Shaken by an ominous jump in the unemployment rate, White House strategists said today that they were reassessing the assumption that an improving economy would revive President Bush's political standing before the November election. Instead, they said, they must focus their campaign more on social problems and character issues. The change in emphasis had been under serious discussion since late last month, but it was propelled Thursday, when it was reported that the June unemployment rate had surged to 7.8 percent. The shift in strategy portends a tougher and possibly more negative re-election effort by Mr. Bush than he or his advisers had predicted. Short on Confidence and Time Mr. Bush's re-election chairman, Robert M. Teeter, said today that the campaign was making only subtle changes in the campaign's overall strategy, which always included messages about social problems, "family values" and Mr. Bush's standing as a world leader. But the decision not to rely on good economic news for an autumn "kick" nevertheless removes an underpinning from the assumptions that Mr. Bush himself has carried into the race.
