'Gov. George Vqinovich and
House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson
both talked about increases - but
not dollar amounts - in separate
meetings with reporters on Monday.
Voinovich said the proposed .
bodget he will submit to legislators
is intended to give schools a funding increase equal to or in excess of
lhe inflation rate.
How much above inflation?
"Not much," Voinovich said.
Davidson, R-Reynoldsburg, said
the two-year budget likely will
anticipate an inflation rate of 3.5
percent in the first year and 3.4 per·
cent in the second. •
"I have not seen the numbers
yet so I'm not sure where we're
going to be on that for educalion. I
certainly hope we could be above
that, but it's in conj~nction as you
look at lhe other factors," Davidson said.
She referred to demands in the
butlget for increased spending on
prisons and other prognuns.
Voino.vicb also foreca~t a possi- .
ble increase of .one-half percentage
point in the share of the state bud·

·
'State spending for schools
amounted to $6.7 billion in the current two•year budget that ends June
30.
·
State Budget Director R. Gregory Browning said that represented
21 .9 percent of the general rever.ue

Voim&gt;vich.said he will give high

ten· issue and Dole's chance
While ou
epublicans are
making waves with their "Contract
with America." a golden opponunity exists for Senate MaJority
Leader (and presidential hopeful)
Bob Dole, R-Kan., to be a hero in
an all-but-forgotten area: health
care.
Polls show that health care is
still a significant concern of Ameri- .
can Yoters, and Dole could easily
take Lhe lead on Medicaid reforms
that would be especially welcome
to GOP governors, a key power
group for I ~6 .
Sad)y, Dole may let his opportunity slip away. He an.d Senate
Finane~ Chainnan Bob Packwoo(l,
R-Ore .. promise .action on be"altll
care thi.' year, but no hearings are
scheduled and delay could push the
issue into I 996, when bipartisan
cooperation may be impossible.
Dole reponedly intends to name
a task force beaded by Sen ~ Roben
Bennett, R-Utab, to study health
reform, but that doesn't i,mply rapid
action.
Passing a health care reform bill
early could prove that Dole wasn't
just playing "politics over .the last
two years as be went from one of
the organizers of a Senate Republi-

can task force on the issue to ihe
man most responsible for torpedoing reform at the end of 1994.
If Bill Clinton bas a problem

Morton Kondracke
with people doubting what be
stands for, what about Dole? He
helped inspire Sen. John cbafee's,
R-R.I., proposal "for individual
mandates, then abandoned it, moving to the right faster than compromise-minded Democrats could
chase him.
Last June, Dole and Packwood
came up wilh a new health initiative that could well serve as the
basis for fast action in the Senate
this year. Packwood, however, was
quoted as telling colleagues that his
real purpose was to kill ·bealth care
reform but avoid leaving Republican fingerprints on the body.
So, the ·question is: What does
Bob Dole slalld for?
His presidential rival, Sen. Phil
Gramm, R- Te-xas. bas already
introduced a proposal providing
some insurance reform (paperwork
efficiency, guaranteeing portability
or policies from job to job, and pro-

tectioo against cancel)ation due to
illness), IRA-like medical savings
accounts, tax deductibility of health
premiums by the self-employed,
and tough limits on medical malpractice awards.
Another candidate, Sen. Arlen
Specter, R-Pa., also has an incre·
mental-reform proposal.
Meantime, the Clinton administration is working on a plan vastly ·
less ambitious than the one that
dominated con~ressional debate in
1994, providmg for insurance
reforms (including a ban on denial
of coverage based on pre-existing
conditions) plus guaranteed coverage for infants and pregnant
women rather than '.'universal oov·

erage" for all Americans.
Senate Minority Leaper Tom
Dascble, D·S.D.. has introduced a
similar bill. The administration is
still debating whether to send up
detailed legislation or a ljst of
"principles" and whether or not to
include its proposal in the president's new budget.
Despite the collapse of health
care reform in 1994, the newest
ABC-Washington Post poll showed
that 84 percent of Americans
regard health care reform as an

AsSociated Press Writer
COLUMBUS - People li~tening to the governor's rocent speeebe~
·may get the impression that the "V" .in George V. Voinovich slallds for
''Volunteerism'. ''

..
•

•

Voinovich's call for cjvic-mindedness was the COfl!!:rstone of bolh his
inaugural address and a keynote speech at an awards ceremony held in
honor of Manin Luther King Jr.'s birthday.
"Every person has a unique gift, a special somelhing lhat can make a
difference in lhe life of someone else," Voinovich said at Wednesday's
King celebration, repeating bis inaugural message.
"I hope every person will heed the call and identify that one thing that
be can do."
So do many s&lt;X:ial service workers, though they worry they will be
cal~to~it~.
.
.
.
"Voiuntce~m is ·a wonderful thing, but it's not going to solve all the.
problems," said Sara Murphy, president of Catholic S&lt;X:ial Services for
the Diocese of Columbus.
·
.
Ms. Murphy said she's had the gOod 'fortune to attract more th;m 300
volunteers to·do everything from clerical work to teach English as a sec. ond language.
What she doesn't have is enough money.
~ 'It takes money to deliver human programming. It takes money to
make people independent. It takes money to run a volu~teer program."
And though her agency now gets state and federal money for some of
its programs, Ms. Murphy knows social programs are an attractive target
for budget-cutting politicians.
But Jim Cain, associate director of the Coalition on Homelessness and
Housing in Ohio, is confident Voinovich won't try to duck hiS responsibilities.
·
"I don't believe that volunteerism is lhe answer, and I don't think the
governor thinks it's the answer•.either," Cain said.
"What l)e's saying is that the state is going to keep some of the money
going, but times are tough and volunteerism is one way to make up some
of the difference."
·
·
Ms. Murphy isn't sure whether the governor's call to arms will bring
out more good deed-doers. ·
_
"I've never bad anyone ever call me up and say, 'The governor said I .
should vollmteer,"' she said. "But! don't know that it's not a motivation.
."I'd like to think lhat people who never thought about volunteering,
but like what lhe goror has to say might think, 'I guess I do have a
civic duty."'

Letters to the editor
Hats off to .post roffices

..

Dear Editor,
I'm sure the post office at one
time or anolher concerns all of us.
I am sick and tired of picking up
the paper and reading complaints
aboui our post offices and postal
employees. l have bad nothing but
the best services one could have
dealing with this government
office.
In Portland. where !live and use
the post office, you could not a,sk
or want more friendly service. I can
go in with · IS or 20 letters going
everywhere and Nancy just stops
what she is doing and looks up
every ZIP code that l do not have.
She has never once gave any dirty
looks or been anyU1ing other than
courteous (Heck, she even keeps a

bowl of candy handy) not only at
the office but at my mail box also.
I forget to get stamps now and
then, so I leave the letter and 29
cents - oops, now 32 cents - in
change and my mail carrier actually licks and pu~' the stamp on for
me.
~
Come on people, lighten up on
our post offices and employees.
Meigs County really has some of
the last great little offices around.
Can you imagine standing in line
for 20 to 30 minutes to mail a letter
like they do in the big cities? I say
hats off 10 the post office, may lhey
never change.

topping all others exceP,t deficit
control.
Yet the House "Contract with
America" that now dominates the
nation's political agenda does not
include health care reform among
its 10 priorities for the first I 00
days, with the exception of tax
credits for long -term care of the
elderly and for the self-employed.
The chances are that after work
on the contract is done, the House
will be preoccupied with the budget and then appropriations bills, to
the exclusion of action this year on
health care reform.
That's where Dole's opportunity
lies. As the House is working on
the contract, be could push health
care reform thal includes - as a
boon to the states - measures to
speed up the process by which
Medicaid patients are treated in
managed care facilities like l-IMOs.
Eight states, five of them with
Republican governors (including
New Hampshire, Illinois, Massachusetts and Ohio), have applied
to the federal government for SO·
called "I I-IO waivers" to place
Medicaid patients under managed
care, a device both to impmve care
and save money.
While President Clinton, -as an
ex-governor, speeded up Uie waiver
jlrocess··in 1993, it haL,ince
bogged down again, according to
Charles Miller, a Washington
lawyer hired by several states to
work their applications through the
Depanment of Health and Human
Services.
Besides Medicaid reform, a
Dore bill could include insurance
reform, new incentives for Medicare patients io join HMOs, medical malpractice reform and - if
Dole wants to seem generous the $100 million subsidy that he
and Packwood proposed in 1994 to
oover the working poor.
Senate Republicans did include
health reform in their version of a
contract, dubbed "seven more in
'94." The agenda was (and is) all
but ignored in media hoopla river
the contract Bob Dole can bring it
back.

Park dispute weakens King's legacy

Fran Lebowitz has said many funny
things. I particularly enjoyed, "There's
nothing about an elevator I like. ll's
too small. ll's filled with people 1 did
not invite. And often these people are
wearing conflicting perfumes."
You w.ouldn't think. 'within reason.
that it mattered what bridge players
·wear or which perfume they select.

ldtonon,

ponent of particularly pungent body
odor. And in the south of France. a
woman and her partner did exceptionally we.!J_ in one session. perhaps because she was wearing a see-through
blouse with nothing underneath.
· In"today's deal. it was an accessory
that mattered·.
West should have opened four
spades To open one on this defenseless hand is an error. And after South
had cue-bid two spades to show a
strong hand, West should have caught
upwithfourspades.
Against five clubs, West cashed a top
spade before switchi'ng to the heart
jack. which ran to South' s qu een .
South guessed the play well He drew
trumps, ruffed his last spade in- the
dummy and cashed only two rounds of
ldi•Jmo:nds, ending in hand. Then came
a heart, dummy playing low when
West produced th~ 10.
East couldn't overtake, but now
West had to lead a spade, conceding a
ruff-and-discard. on which South 's
heart loser disappeared.
In the post-mortem, West claimed
that if South had cashed thr~e rounds
of diamonds, he would have discarded
the blocking heart 10.

Bui Voinovich insisted Tuesday
as-he welcomed federal permission
to proceed with his switch to OhioCare that quality of services for the
poor would not suffer.
·
"Let me make this point very
clear. We inten4 for the quality of
Medicai d services to remain high
or be even improved under this
setup,' •· Voinovich said at a news
conference.
"The HMOs that contract with
the state will have to maintain high
standards of quality or n6Jonger do
business with us," he said.
Voinovich said the state intends
to SurVey recipients to help ensure
that quality service is maintained.
"OhioCare will provide inaivid-

uals with access to ·a family doctor
as well as regular preventive
medicine instead of using more
expensive emergency room services for routine medical treat ment,'.' V.oinovich said . .
.
and ~~an SeCVIces gave the state
permassaon _to transform Med1crud_
from a trndtllonal .system that ~rud
doctors and hosp1tals for serv1ces
they provided into a managed~are
network that wo~ld pay provtders
fixed rates.
Financial details were not available, .but Voinovich said no new
state money was necessary.
Instead, the plan relies on redirecting money the state already
spends on health care, plus an
undetermined jllllOunt of additional
federal money.
Care will continue for more than
!)million Ohioans who already are
Medicaid recipients. Coverage also
will go to at least 375,000__;vorking
