Herrington says OPEC cartel doomed and U S oil shocks past
Energy Secretary John Herrington declares OPEC cannot survive in the long run. He argues that overseas ownership of U S distribution facilities helps bring oil to market and benefits both the United States and Saudi Arabia. He notes a fundamentally different energy world since 1980s shocks and cites drastic oil industry job losses in 1985 and early 1986.

Marcos Remains Under Doctor's Care in Honolulu
Deposed Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos says he is too ill to travel for arraignment on racketeering charges and will stay under round the clock care for congestive heart failure. Doctors reported medication and rest controlled the life threatening ailment after an ambulance ferried him home from the hospital.
