Iran backs Iraqi revolt and troops welcome home
Iran backed the Iraqi revolt and urged overthrow of Saddam Hussein as Baghdad promised freedom for 42 foreign journalists and two U.S. soldiers. The U.S. planned to repatriate over 60,000 Iraqi POWs amid joyous homecomings in the United States and somber news for POWs awaiting release. Generals marked the Desert Storm milestone with cheers as released troops arrived, while Iraqi assurances warned traitors faced punishment. Iran’s president offered neutrality in the conflict.

Hattery mulls run for 6th District seat in 1992
Del. Thomas H. Hattery of Frederick says he is seriously considering a bid for Maryland’s 6th District in the 1992 U S Congress. He believes he could defeat incumbent Rep. Beverly Byron and says he is encouraged by supporters, though he has not committed to a campaign. If he runs, it would not jeopardize his General Assembly seat as the next congressional election would be in 1992.

Free State recycling plan rejected by Frederick County
Frederick County commissioners rejected Free State Recycling System's plan to haul out-of-county trash into the Point of Rocks facility. The decision followed a Maryland Department of Environment review stating the county solid waste plan does not allow in county trash from other jurisdictions or a facility type not listed. The group proposed removing recyclables and sending remainder to landfills, with only county waste accepted at the county landfill. The commissioners drafted a letter to the MDE outlining noncompliance, amid closed meetings with state officials and Free State representatives.
