Official: Bush tissue bank projections face questions
A health official acknowledged that upper limit estimates for fetuses available to a proposed tissue bank may be inflated. Officials say 1,500 to 2,000 yearly recoveries are exaggerations, with 200 per year potentially enough for research into Alzheimer's and Parkinson's amid a May plan to spend 3 million.

Clinton fights GOP line before Urban League crowd
Bill Clinton appealed to a National Urban League audience in San Diego to counter Republican charges that his ticket is too liberal and tax hungry. He argued the Bush Quayle team uses such claims to dodge housing and jobs failures while courting pro change voters beyond Perot. Clinton later spoke in Cupertino on economics and deficits as White House aides rejected a Yugoslavia bombing criticism.
