Martin "understands the stakes" in rebuilding a free and peaceful Iraq, Bush said. It was Bush's second fence-mending session in two days. On Monday, Bush and Mexican President Vicente Fox put aside two years of differences and said they see eye-to-eye about a new U.S. proposal to grant legal status to millions of undocumented workers in the United States, many of them Mexicans. The Unite States had angered m y allies -last m.onth by nning fuins in countries t at had opposes! the Iraq ar from bidding on- Iraqt reconstruction projects.

I am 60 years old and in excellent health. Should I take an aspirin every day? How much should I take? Is it a safe medication? Answer: Aspirin is an old medicine that was a folk medicine for many years before Bayer started 'manufacturing it in synthetic form in 1893. The active ingredient in aspirin is salicylic acid that is found in the bark of the willow tree. Aspirin has many /Uedicinal uses.

Nearly a third receive some 'after their period of work in fo1111 of public welfare. Nearly the United States has expired.' half have critical housing Well. it would be wonderful needs. And more than half • lack health care. So we could expect that several million of the illegal miens who receive 'temporary' worker status, as · well as untold thousands of mostly Mexican workers who would cross the border to panicipate in the new program. would s¢ek publicly funded welfare and health care and housing. .That would; of course, cost · the federal govern nient, as well as · state governments , hundreds of millions of additiona! tax dollars each year. Some suggest that even that price is not too high to bear consid~ring the contribution illegaf immigrants make to this nation's economy. They suggest that low-skillfd illegals perform the lahor .Americans are unwilling to perfom1. But those 1\(idely promulgated myths do not stand up to scruti·. · A 1. port bx the Center for Immigration ' Studies calculares that the avemge Mexican immigra nt costs the fedeml govemment and state govern· ments $55,200 more than he or she contributes over their lifetime. That is attributable to their much lower average incomes. and resulting lower tax payments. coupled with their heavy use of means-tested programs. And as to the claim, which President Bush repeated this week, that there are so many jobs out !here that 'American citizens are not filling,' the rea- son rs · th ~rt low -skilled American wor~ers are heing crowded out in their own country by low-skilled t'tlreign workers. ·· . . ·Indeed, before the two greur waves of illegal immigration · in the•l980s and 1990s there were niore than enough Americans perfoi·ming .the low-skilled and semi-skilled work needed by hrnns. and orchards. factories .and con- , stnrctit;m sites, restaurants and hotels, car washes and dr~ · cleaners. -\nd there still are many lower-skilled Americans available to work for such employers. inducting the 10 million native-born Americans lacking high school diplomas: , And if that's stillnol ent.ntgh low-skilled labor to meet the needs of the riation\ indus.tries, they can recruit workers lrom the 1egal imti1igrantpop, ulalion. That includes the :nore than 5 million )s:ga l Mexican immigrants ivithout high school Jiplolnas. America will not quietly perish withoui tl1e lahar of illegal immi,granh (or migrants from abroad). · So the president's 'temporary' worker program serves no purpose other than to forgive, to reward those who have previously stolen into the country, who have brazenl y flouted thi s nation's immigra: tion laws.

Should one retain a respectful silence, or shoul d one · le ap into print? looK at the North hand in "the diagram. Your partner opens one spade_ After West passes. what would you respond? Your immediate thoughts should be thai fou r spades is surely laydown and that sile spades is a distinct possibility, especially if Sou th can control the cl~~ su it. The author recommended responding two clubs. bu1 I lee! that that is wrong. This is . the key guideline: Whe n you are immediately thinking· about a slam in pa rtner's suit". do not make your lirst bid in a bad suit (unless yoU have absolutely no alternative). With this hand (since clubs is probably not the right strain), North should respond two diamonds. Then. South would rebid two spades . Now North sflould jump 1o four hearts, wh ich promises a control in the suit and expresses slam interest in spades. (If you use splinter bids , fine; if not, the Jump JUSt shows a lirst·round control in the suit. and would deny a first-round control in clubs.) South, with no control in clubs, would sign off in four spades. If North responds two clubs, South's hand suddenly looks more rosy. Just imagine the North hand with four low dia· mends and ace-king-litth ol clubs . Then . six of either black suit is a great contract. It will be very hard for North-South to stop below the five-level. And aga inst live spades, it won 't be hard for West to play' thre e rounds of clubs to defeat the contract. .
