Show NEWS IN BRIEF 2 Bush wants to ensure Hussein will remain in jail in Iraqi custody -- Government declines legislation do-not-spa- WASHINGTON The Bush administration said Tuesday it will not create a national registry to discourfearing age unwanted it could backfire and become a target list for new victims. The Federal Trade Commission told Congress that senders of unwanted sales pitches might mine such a registry for names. Its chairman, Timothy Muris, quipped that consumers "will be spammed if we do a registry and spammed if we do not." The commission was obligated by lawmakers to consider the proposal under the "can spam" legislation that Bush signed in December, an idea patterned after the FTC's enormously successful registry to limit telemarketing calls. But the FTC concluded that on the Internet, unlike within the highly regulated U.S. telephone network, regulators authentication technology that will make it more difficult to disguise the origin Several of unwanted proposals from leading technology companies, including Microsoft Corp., are under consideration by industry. "A national registry, without a system in place to authenticate the ori Utah's largest communityhealth care provider has agreed to pay $267,000 to state and federal agencies for improperly using vaccines intended for needy children, officials said Tuesday. Community Health Centers Inc. made the payment after an investigation and settlement negotiations with the Utah Attorney General's Office, the U.S. Attorney's office and the Office of Inspector General for the Department of Health and Services. The settlement funds will go to the Vaccines for Children program, a federally funded program administered by the Utah Department of Health to provide vaccines to children from families. "This settlement does two things: taxpay said. ers get their money back and the free vaccines will only go to the children who need it most," said U.S. Attorney Paul Warner. Investigators found Community Health Care Centers gave free vaccines from the program to children who were already covered by insurance, and then sent bills for the vaccinations to insurance companies and Medicaid.

The Marriott Library Book Arts Lecture Series presents, Texas judge says trench fries are vegetables WASHINGTON Batter-c- french fries are a fresh vegetable, according to the Agriculture Department, which has a federal judge's ruling to back it up. The department said Tuesday that the classification applies only to rules of commerce, not nutrition, and it doesn't consider an order of fries the same as an apple in school lunches. The ruling last week by federal District Judge Richard Schell in Beaumont, d Texas, allowed french fries to be considered fresh vegetables under the oated batter-coate- Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act. Most other frozen fries had been on the list since 1996. Regulations under the law help to assure buyers of commodities such as french fries that they are getting what they ordered, said George Chartier, a spokesman for the department's Agricultural Marketing Service. Frozen fries are fresh simply because they don't meet the standard necessary for them to be listed as processed, and adding batter to the fries does not change the classification, he said. Candidates Father says won't debate north of SLC SAN FRANCISCO The atheist father who challenged the constitutionality of the Pledge of Allegiance says the Supreme Court's dismissal of the case represents "a blow for parental rights." But the decision was so narrowly crafted that its impact will be muted, legal experts said. Some scholars suggested the decision even bolstered parental rights by upholding a Sacramento County family court order granting the daughter's mother absolute control of her upbringing. The justices ruled Monday that because Michael Newdow did not have legal custody of his daughter, he had no standing to bring a lawsuit on her behalf challenging the words "under God" in the pledge . Without addressing the merits of the case, the decision overturns a federal appeals court's 2002 ruling that the pledge, with its reference to God, was an unconstitutional endorsement of religion when recited in public OGDEN, Utah Republican gubernatorial candidates Jon Huntsman Jr. and Nolan Kar-ra- s won't be debating north of Salt Lake City before the June 22 primary. Huntsman had rejected debate offers from northern Utah groups for several months, but reversed course last week and asked to face n off against Karras at the Rotary Club's Wednesday meeting. Greg Haws, of the Ogden Rotary Club, said Huntsman's campaign manager called Friday about a month after the candidate had decided against debating in Ogden to ask for the meeting debate. But because of Huntsman's previous wavering, the club decided against the meeting. "A couple of board members were offended by the whole thing," Haws said. Huntsman campaign manager Jason Chaffetz said the candidate tinkered with his schedule last week and discovered Wednesday was open. schools. The decision also overturned the appeals court that ruled Newdow could sue. "When hard questions of domestic relations are sure to affect the outcome, the prudent course is for the federal court to stay its hand rather than reach out to resolve a weighty question of federal constitutional law," Justice John Paul Stevens wrote for five justices in the majority.

"Without effective authentication of any registry is doomed to fail," the commission said.

"When we say we transfer full sovereignty, we mean we transfer full sovereignty," Bush said at a news conference in the Rose Garden with Afghan President Hamid KarzaL "And they will deal with him appropriately." In Baghdad, Iyad Allawi, the interim prime minister, had said the United States would turn over Saddam by the transfer of sovereignty. Saddam has been in U.S. custody at an undisclosed location in Iraq since his capture in December. Salem Chalabi, the Iraqi official in charge of setting up a tribunal to try former government figures, said he expected an arrest warrant filed against Saddam and other former officials before June 30. "We have been working quite hard in the last few days on that, believe me," Chalabi said. Chalabi said he believed Iraqi authorities would have grounds for holding Saddam if and when he was handed over. President Bush insisted WASHINGTON Tuesd.iy he must have assurances Saddam Hussein will stay in jail and not return to power before releasing him to Iraq's interim government, refusing to commit to the June 30 timetable envisioned by Iraq's new prime minister. Raising concerns about security arrangements once Saddam is out of U.S. custody. Bush said, "He's a killer. He is a thug. He needs to be brought to trial." Bush said it wis legitimate to ask the interim government: "How are you going to make sure he stays in jail?" Bush's reluctance to turn over Saddam raised new questions about the extent of Iraq's authority when the interim government claims sovereignty from the U.S. led coalition on June 30. Bush has encountered widespread skepticism from world leaders about whether the United States truly intends to relinquish control, with 135,000 American troops remaining in Iraq to maintain security. Asserting anew that the new government would be sovereign.
