Bob Dole of Kansas could meetsoon with Clinton to seek "common ground."
Gingrich maintained that he iscommitted to trying to pass the"Contract With America" hehelped fashion as a campaign platform for Republican candidatesthis year.
He stayed on the move most ofthe evening, hopping between livetelevision interviews, talks to hissupporters, and tracking electionresults in a "war room" whereaides kept updating returns andmarking Republican gains onmaps of the nation.
Dole to leadSenate again
By CURT ANDERSON
WASHINGTON (AP)· BobDolewill be running the Senate again,but this time the Kansas Republican may have more visibility for apotential presidential bid in 1996.
Dole, who was Senate majorityleader in 1985 and 1986, has beenminority leader for the past eightyears. .
The Republicans won at least51seats Tuesday, assuring the 71year-old Dole of the new post.
He said Tuesday's results werea "vote of no confidence in theClinton agenda" and a repudiationof "big government, big taxes, bigregulation."
But now as the floor leader ofthe majority party in the Senate,Dole said he would not simplyseek to block all of the Democraticpresident's initiatives.
"My view is, we can work together," Dole said. "We know theAmerican people want us to beresponsible."
Although Dole has not yet announced whether he'll mount athird campaign for the presidencyin two years, some Republicansalready think he should relinquishthejob ifhe seeks theWhite House.
will enable Republicans to stopanything Clinton tries to getthrough Congress. TheSenate alsohas the power to ratify or rejecttreaties. Each state elects two senators. The House, which mustoriginate all spending laws, has 435members elected in districtsdrawnup according to population.
Republican Chairman HaleyBarbour said voters were sendinga booming message:"Governmentis too big for its britches."
If one man personified theparty's plight, it was House leaderThomas Foley of Washington, atriskof beingthefirstHousespeakervoted out of office since 1860.
Clinton had campaigned hard tostave off a resounding defeat andawaited returns in a gloomy WhiteHouse. Aides said Clinton recognized that he will be dealing with amore conservative and more Republican Congress.
Democrats began the day controlling the Senate 56-44 and theHouse 256-178.Onaverage,afirstterm president's party loses threeor four Senate seats and perhaps
Roosevelt's theme and thatRonald Reagan had been an FORDemocrat before switching to theRepublican Party.
"We're going to bring togethera great majority to do good thingsfor America," he said.
Gingrich said his style wouldbe different as speaker than it hadbeen as minority leader. Joinedby his wife, his parents, his brotherand his two daughters and theirhusbands before the raucouscrowd, Gingrich offered conciliatory words and pledged bipartisan efforts.
At one point, as Gingrichthanked those who made his victory possible, a supporter offereda name: "Pre~ident Clinton."
A new, bipartisan Gingrich responded: "We now have somereal work to do as Americans,working together as Americans."
He said he hoped he and Sen.
pass health care reform and othermajor legislation and affect hisre-election strategy for 1996. Republican victories promised abattle for lower taxes and lessgovernment and could increasepressure against further U.S.commitments abroad.
Among the victims were MarioCuomo in New York and AnnRichards of Texas - Democraticgovernors who fell to voters' misgivings about Clinton and Democratic liberalism. Richards lost toone son of former PresidentGeorge Bush. Another son, JebBush, lost a tight race to LawtonChiles in Florida.
All the news was not bad forDemocrats: Sen. Chuck Robbdefeated Iran-Contra figure OllieNorth in Virginia and Sen. Edward Kennedy won his hardestcontest yet in Massachusetts.
Kennedy will be joined in Congress by his son Patrick, who wona House seat from Rhode Island,and nephew Joseph, who took aHouse seat from Massachusetts.

Gingrich eyes House speakershipBy DAN SEWELL
MARIETTA, Ga. CAP) - Rep.Newt Gingrich, the combativenational point man for conservative Republicans, won re-electionon Tuesday and was poised toclaim the speakership of theHouse.
'This is truly a wildly historicnight," Gingrich told a packedballroom late Tuesday.
An eight-term incumbent,Gingrich beat Democrat BenJones, a former two-term congressman.
He said returns from around thenation made it appear likely thatRepublicans would gain morethan the 40 seats needed to have aHouse majority for the first timesince 1954.

secretary Dee Dee Myers said asthe scope of Democratic lossesbecame clear. Already, the impact on the administration wasclear, as White House Chief ofStaff Leon Panetta said Clintonwould propose only "an incremental change" in health carenext year, rather than a top-tobottom overhaul opposed by Republicans.
Republicans also catapulted toelection victories in state governors' races around the country,gaining the party's first majorityin state capitals since 1976. Thedefeat registered widespread anger and frustration with Democratic domination of Washingtonthat failed to bring promised reforms.
A projection by Voter NewsService, based on voter surveysand returns from key precincts,said Republicans had better than90 percent odds of capturing theHouse. CNN projected that Republicans would win the Housefor the first time since 1954.

Since Medicaid is tightly regulated bygovernment-setfeeschedules, thecaredeliveredtotheelderly isoftensubstandard. We'veall heard the stories about the for profit,nursing-home Medicaid mills, theones thatbring- in Medicaid patients by the bushelonly to deliversubstandard care.
"Somehow,between 1965 and 1975, wedecided the only placean older person wassafe was in a nursing home," says a statehealth care official in Oregon. "Now we'rehavinga hardtimegetting people tosee thatisn't necessarily so."
In the next few decades, the demand forlong-term care is expected to triple and sowillthecosts. The timetosolvethisproblemis now, beforethecrisis is uponus,
"The reality is thatthere will beadditionalfinancial burdens, and states that are struggling now will struggle more," one healthcareanalyst at theBrookings Institution toldus. "But this is manageable if we have thepolitical willto maintain ourcurrent level ofexpenditures and create a more balancedsystem that provides people with choicesother thanjust nursing-home care."
Mostexperts inthefield believe long-termcare reform is best handled by .the statesinstead of the federal government. Twelvestates havealready passed reforms designedto lower the reliance on nursing homes infavorof less expensive alternatives such ashomecare,personal care,oradultfoster careandassisted living.
An estimated three fourths of all nursing home residents could receive betterand less expensive care at home. Ratherthan having a trained staff of full-timenurses and aides looking after people,horne care can be modified to suit eachperson's needs on an individual basis.
While those who need round-the-clockcare are probably better off in a nursinghome, others can easily get by with periodic visits from a nurse or other healthprofessional. Studies have shown thathome care is cost-effective in part because manyelderly can afford to pay for itout-of-pocket, rather than having to go onthe government dole to live in a nursinghome.

WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND
Long-term care coveragecontinues to ailWASHINGTON-Congress' failure topassa comprehensive health care package thisyearmeans 37 million Americans willspendanother yearwithout insurance. It alsomeansmillions of American families will continuetolivewith the financial burden of caring foran elderly loved one.
Long-term care was the ugly stepchild ofthis year'shealth caredebate. Nobody wantedtotalk about it, fearing it wouldbankrupt thegovernment-c-or employers -if it were included In a "standard benefits package." ButasAmerica grows olderandhealth carecostscontinue to rise, it's an issueour lawmakerscan't duckfor much longer.
One of the great myths about long-termcare is that it's strictly for older people. Anestimated 10 million people currently needsomeform oflong-term care, andnearly onethird of these people areunder theageof 65.Many of these individuals are children.
Byanystandards, thefinancial outlook forit isgrim. Lastyear America spentmore thanSl08 billion on long-term care-more thantwo-thirds of which was spent on nursinghome care. The rest of the money-533 billion -went to home based care. Regardlessof where care is received, it's an expensiveproposition. A year of long-term care costsbetween 530,000 and 560,000.
InAmerica lastyear, 36percent of thetotalprice tag was paid out-of-pocket, meaningAmerican wage earners spentnearly $40 billion on long-term care for their loved ones,Compare that with private insurance, whichpaid foronly22 percent of all long-term carecosts last year. Therestof thetab was pickedupby thegovernment-mostly Medicaid.
"To a family sitting around the kitchentable, there isnodifference between spending520,000onhospital careandspending520,000onhome care,"says Beatrice Braun, a Washington health carelobbyist fortheelderly. "Itis still $20,000 they do nothave."
While Washington talks about the uninsured, those whohave insurance should knowthat this canrepresent a false senseofsecuri ty.Most standard health insurance packages donotcoverlong-term care--orcoververy little.NordoesMedicare provide muchprotection.Under the current rules, Medicare covers upto 100daysof very limited care in a nursinghome following a hospital stay.
Theresult is thatmillions ofseniorcitizenshave been forced to "pay down" to receivelong-term care by spending their personal

trustfundswithoutanappropriationfrom the legislature.
"Hethenprovideduswithaswomstatement from the trust officer ofthebankand hisown assurancethatno funds had been withdrawnfromthe trustaccount,"said Mitchell.
To show that the original complaint was proper at the time,Rayphand' smotionincludedCOnespondence and other documentswhich she said led her to believe,priorto filing the complaintagainstthe bank, that the governorhad infact used the trust funds to payMitsubishi.
One of the documents, a letterdatedAugust17, 1994,fromDavidH. Heggestad, Chief FInancial Officer of the Departmentof InteriorOffice of Territorial and International Affairs, to JamesLynn, VicePresident of the Bank of Guam.,specifically authorizes the bank to"release up to $10 million to payMitsubishi Corporation for powergenerating equipment and spareparts."
According to Mitchell this andotherdocuments all indicated thatatthe time of the filing of the complaint, Tenorio had used the trustfunds. .
"In fact,"Mitchell said,"we sawa broadcastof thegovernor's pressconference on MCV televisionwherehe defended thepayment bysayingthathedidn'tunderstand whythere was any complaint about itbecausehemade the paymentwiththe trust funds. In the saine statement,heclaimedthatthetrustfundsbelonged to theInteriordepartment,not to the Commonwealth,"
Another document provided byMitchell, is an August IS, 1994,Resolution of thecuein whichthecueBoardconcurred in the usc of"approximately S10 million of interestproceeds fromthe Commonwealth bond issues in 1987 to paytheCUC's arrearstoMitsubishi forgenerators and spare parts."
To trytofindoutwhatdidhappen,Mitchell said they spoke to JimRipple at the Commonwealth DevelopmentAuthority, whotoldthemthat the Mitsubishi payment wasmade out of the CDA funds earmarked to make contractpaymentsfor theongoingSaipan Harbor Improvement Project, and otherprojects,

China deniesplague outbreakSEOUL (AP) - South Korea's
Health Ministry ordered emer
gency measures against all pas
sengers and cargo arriving from
China after unconfirmed reports
ofa plague outbreak, officials said
Wednesday.Chinese health authorities de
nied the reports."There is no outbreak of such a
disease," said a health ministry
official, who only gave his sur
name, Zhang.Zhang said that a disease had
spread among wild rat popula
tions in remote areas of far west
ern China, including Tibet and
Qinghai, earlier in the year."No cases had been reported in
cities," he said.No quarantine steps were being
taken in Japan, health officials
there said, adding that they had no
information about the reported
plague.All passengers arriving in Ko
rea from China face sanitary
checks, and all ships and planes
from China have been ordered
fumigated, a Health Ministry
statement said.Passengers who develop high
fever and coughing after return
ing from China were asked to
report to government health cen
ters for examination, it said.
Unconfirmed South Korean re
ports from Beijing have said the
plague has spread to 216 ci ties
around China, including Shang
hai, and can be expected to spread
to the rest ofChina, if unchecked.

"And we can getsomething special started with the team competition."
