U S renews terrorism charges against Syria
The Bush administration keeps Syria at arm’s length despite a courtesy call and praise for aiding in the release of hostage Robert Polhill. Officials cite continued presence of terrorist groups in Syria and Bekka Valley, including the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine General Command, the Japanese Red Army, and Abu Nidal. Sanctions remain under review, with no immediate normalization.

Smelser to Seek Re election to Maryland Senate
ANNAPOLIS Senator Charles H. Smelser announces plans to seek another term in Maryland Senate district 4. A veteran of 32 years in the General Assembly and longtime fiscal conservative, Smelser chairs the Senate Capital Budget subcommittee which allocated 330 million dollars for local buildings and facilities among 23 counties and Baltimore City. He notes a shoestring campaign with no manager or fundraisers and credits supporters for donations. His political tenure includes roles on Budget and Taxation, Legislative Policy, Executive Nominations and Rules, and the Joint Committee on Administrative Executive and Legislative Review. The 69-year-old first entered the House in 1955, moved to the Senate in 1967, and has run a thrifty campaign while remaining active in leadership and committees.
