AMA spurns insurance requirement in health reform debate
The American Medical Association urged Congress to seek alternatives to Clinton's employer mandate while not repealing its prior support. Delegates upheld a 1989 policy in the same breath, fearing job losses if employers must insure all workers. Dr Lonnie Bristow said the stance offers flexibility to shape health care reform with the administration. The AMA represents about 290,000 physicians, roughly half of U.S. doctors.

Major mob drug ring broken by NYC police
New York police said a international drug operation led by organized crime figures was shut down Tuesday with about 60 suspects arrested. The ring, importing over 400 pounds of heroin yearly, used a city officer with access to state records to map undercover surveillance and traced a drug route from Paris to Moscow to Singapore to New York. About 500 narcotics officers raided suspect hideouts as Manhattan DA Morgenthau named about a dozen key members across four families.
