The 1,000-ton tanker broke up after bombing attempts failed to salvage it amid 120-mile coastline shock and weeks of storms. Oil slicks fouled birds seals and fisheries, with losses estimated at tens of millions. London debates action as Royal Navy and civilians try to contain the spill and protect Britain’s shores.

The plan would cut state mental health facilities including Metropolitan and several clinics, with no current reductions to Metropolitan patient care pledged.

Reagan Budget Slashes Target Economy Yet Expands Aid
Governor Reagan trimmed state spending while defending essential services. He added 120 million for local property tax relief and 50 million for new school aid, plus 35 million for poor districts and 39 million for state employee pay raises. He proposed eliminating 3,700 Mental Hygiene Department jobs and closing several centers and camps across multiple counties, while asserting no essential service would be eliminated. The budget falls short of the 10 percent economy goal but maintains balance amid fiscal strain.
