Fired general warns Korea pullout risks war
Maj. Gen. John K. Singlaub testified before a House subcommittee that North Korea has expanded its military—tanks rising from 500 to 2,000, plus more ships and jets—making U.S. withdrawal of ground troops risky. He said Korean officers expect an attack once withdrawal begins and urged cautious plans with allied air, logistics, and security commitments.

Sticky legal problem may upset Unicom budget plans
The Legislature met with late copies of LB532, a mainline operations budget bill, causing a constitutional dispute over time of delivery to senators. Lt. Gov. Gerald Whelan warned the ruling could be overturned by 25 votes and Gov. Exon might veto items like $20 million in school aid if the bill passes on schedule. The bill’s 100 page length and late printing pushed delivery to 10:30 a.m., well after 9 a.m. session start.
