The special three-judg- e panel said it will grant a request by a research group and two organiza- tions representing journalists to make the massive report public. "The court not only considers it appropriate but in the public interest that as full a disclosure as possible be made of the final report of the independent counsel," the pane el said in a unsigned memorandum accompanying a two-paorder. The court said it intends to make the report public in "some short but not later period of time" today. "The possibility exists," the court said, that federal law or court rules "may require limited deletions." But, the panel said, "We anticipate that these deletions, if any, w ill be minor." three-pag- ge CLINTON: (Continued from Page Al) Korea has not been increased," he added. A senior Pentagon official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Thursday that preparing a list of possible steps to strengthen U.S. troops in the area is part of "prudent planning" being undertaken by the military. The crisis with North Korea stems from the Pyongyang government's resistance to Western demands to inspect its nuclear facilities. The CIA believes North Korea could have enough nuclear material for one or two weapons, although the North Koreans deny having any nuclear weapons program. The Washington Post reported today that a new U.S. intelligence analysis has forecast that the administration will fail to get North Korea's approval for inspections of its most sensitive nuclear-relate- d facilities and thus may never e determine how much has made. Korea North plutonium An administration official acknowledged to The Associated Press that the United States "will never know how much plutonium they've got." Yet, u.e administration is pursuing an inspection regime to get North Korea to stop its nuclear weapons program and sign on to a future, the official said, speaking only on condition of anonymity. White House Press Secretary Dee Dee Myers said, "The country's very isolated and therefore it's difficult to know exactly what they are going to do. It's one of the problems with them being so isolated it's hard to predict. ' ' Clinton is concerned that the bomb-grad- (Continued from Page Al) The court also said it will not make public a classified appendix to the report but w ill release a separate appendix of responses from those named in the report. The report has been kept under seal since Independent Counsel Lawrence Walsh filed it with the court in August as he closed down his 6 12 -- year investigation. Walsh concluded that senior advisers to President Reagan tried to cover up events in the affair, according to portions of the sealed report described to The Associated Press. The scandal involved the sale of weapons to Iran to obtain the release of U.S. hostages in the Middle East, and the diversion the profits by former White House aide Oliver North to by arms for Nicaraguan Contra rebels when U.S. military assistance to them was barred by law. Iran-Cont- Journalists, and the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press. highly unpredictable North Korean regime would be even more dangerous w ith a nuclear weapon. He also fears that if North Korea gets the bomb, South Korea and possibly Japan could follow suit. The United States is trying to persuade North Korea to allow limited inspections in return for talks that could lead to cancellation of a major military exercises in South Korea, financial assistance and eventual diplomatic recognition. North Korea has said it was ready for war or sanctions. Clinton, in one interview, said, "I'm doing what I can now to defuse this crisis and to give the North Koreans a way to join the community of nations and to enter a dialogue with the South. It's what's best for them and let's just see what happens. But I wouldn't out." Pentagon sources said the planning update under way is "strictly preparatory" and would be put into action only if the tensions over North Korea's nuclear program escalated. Clinton went out of his way to reduce tensions. "When a president says there are options I am considering ... the inference is that you are about to take some action. I don't want to raise that red flag," Clinton said. non-nucle- ar fill Gac&ty The following information is taken from the Wasatch Front air pollution report compiled by the Utah Division of Air Quality.

Not all Colombians were happy about the drug lord's slaying.

The vigilante squad is believed to be composed of members of the rival Cali cartel, former Medellin cartel members, and police avenging the deaths of officers slain by the cartel.
