Waite Sees Grave Difficulties in Freeing Hostages

Anglican envoy Terry Waite said he met with the kidnappers of American hostages again and faces very grave difficulties in securing their release. He reported progress and a growing mutual trust after returning to Beirut, with two more meetings following an earlier disclosure. Waite stressed details of the meetings remain secret.

Malpractice Pay Limit Readied For Legislature

A Kansas legislative committee approved a bill setting a one million dollar cap on medical malpractice awards, with a fifteen hundred thousand cap on general malpractice and fifty thousand on pain and suffering. Republicans opposed inflation-linked limits. Democrats urged full freedom from caps. The panel also discussed patient damages as inflation rises. Separately, Waite faced dangers in Beirut as militants fought near the Commodore hotel, delaying plans and flights while he pressed for hostage negotiations. He said he remained in contact with the right people and asked captors not to harm hostages. The hostages include Terry Anderson and Lawrence Jenco among six Americans missing in Lebanon.
