Bush, Gorby can’t agree on Germany
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - Presi
dent Bush held summit talks with
Mikhnil S. Gorbachev on Thursday
pledging to end “decades of division
and discord" but ended the day at
odds over a unified Germany. “It is
not here that the German question
will be resolved," the Soviet presi
dent said.
The White House said
agreements would be signed
Friday ending production of chem
ical weapons and sealing the major
elements of a treaty to slash long-
range nuclear arms. The leaders
will also commit themselves to
deeper cuts in the years ahead.
Hopes faded for progress on re
ducing tanks and troops in Europe,
an issue intertwined with the thor
nier issue of German unity.

He said he would look into the le

11-foot, one-ton boilerplate steel
sculpture before beginning any fur

"It’s been out in that field for 35
years, so 111 make sure there’s no

problem had been turned over to
Secretary of State James A. Baker
III and Soviet Foreign Minister Ed
uard Shevardnadze for “a more in
depth discussion” next week in Co
penhagen.
Gorbachev said he and Bush
“understand each other’s concerns
better^ and the two sides ex
changed new ideas.
As he did during his 1987 visit to
Washington, Gorbachev delighted
a downtown crowd by hopping out
of his limousine and shaking
hands. The throng of about 500
people cheered and applauded.
“Gorby, over here!” some shouted.
Within minutes he was back in
his car and gone.

The Soviet leader said he and
Bush discussed the subject in de
tail. “What President Bush is doing
is probably defending his view
point. I think that dictating is un
acceptable," he said.
Gorbachev and Bush opened
their summit with 2 hours and 15
minutes of private talks, accompa
nied only by translators and note-
takers. A second meeting in the af
ternoon ran more than two hours.
White House press secretary
Marlin Fitzwater echoed Gorba
chev’s prediction about the dispute
on Germany. “I don’t think we ex

this summit,” he said.

“Many times, I would just have
to tell (the client) the facts just
don’t conform to the case you want
to present,” he said.
The client could then either
settle or get another expert. Most
of the time, Bullock said, they
would settle.
Amy Gellins, an attorney with
the Athens law firm Nelson and
Hill, said she hasn’t had much ex
perience with expert witnesses but
said credibility is the bottom line.
Lawyers have a responsibilty to
bring in more than a paid mouth
piece, but to present a valid expert,
she said. It doesn’t matter how
much the information supports the
case if the jury doesn’t believe the
expert.

ensure that the research process

“proof that differences can be re
solved, even while others remain.”
Noting the changes sweeping
Eastern Europe and the Soviet
Union, Bush said, “Such profound
change is unsettling but also exhi
larating. We do not shrink from the
challenges before us but welcome
them, determined to build the
foundations of enduring peace and
security."
the expert went through was a
valid process,” she said. “You
better be sure your witness has
credibility.”
The lighter side
For L. Ray Patterson, a pro
fessor of law, expert witnessing
doesn’t necessarily involve such a
violent or controversial aspect.
Patterson, an expert on copy
right law, has witnessed in a suit
involving the makers of Cabbage
Patch Kids dolls who claimed look-
alike dolls infringed their copy
right.
For Patterson, the real satisfac
tion lies in how his courtroom re
search complements his classroom
research.
He also enjoys the opportunity to
get back into the courtroom, “and
students are impressed that you
are not merely an academic who
sits in an ivory tower."

Report: People with AIDS
suffer public discrimination
The Associated Press
LONDON — Public fears and
harsh government controls have
forced many AIDS sufferers into
hiding and hampered efforts to
control the disease by creating a
separate “epidemic" of discrimi
nation, a report said Thursday.
The report’s author, Martin
Foreman, said voluntary mea
sures that respect the rights of
people most at risk are the best
way of containing the deadly dis
ease.
The 320-page report, “The
Third Epidemic," was written by
the Panos Institute and the
Norwegian Red Cross.
Foreman heads a unit at the
Panos Institute, an international
research and policy studies insti
tute with offices in London. The
organization has collected infor
mation on AIDS, particularly in
developing countries, since 1986.
The report noted that Iraq re
quires all foreigners staying
longer than five days to take
blood tests, while Cyprus only
tests African students and cab
aret artists and other countries
just check would-be immigrants.
The report cited dozens of
cases of discrimination against
people who have AIDS or HIV,
the human immunodeficiency
virus that causes it.
“In almost every country,
eople testing positive for HIV
ave been sacked from their jobs,
disowned by their families, re
jected by friends, refused treat
ment by doctors and turned down
by schools and colleges,” the re
port said.
Foreman said the hostility was
the “third epidemic" after the
HIV infection and the later ap
pearance of AIDS in the early
1980s.
“(It is) a social infection ... the
denial, blame and stigmatization
which the fear of AIDS brings out
in individuals and societies,"
Foreman told a news conference.
The report concluded that
“HIV infection will not be erad
icated as long as the stigma of
AIDS remains.”
He said that controls such as
compulsory blood tests on prosti
tutes or soldiers and immigration
curbs have not only failed to con
tain the virus but have “almost
certainly had the opposite effect.”
“If people who are HIV-posi
tive are subject to a series of legal
measures in addition to society’s
hostility, those at risk will steer
clear of any situation in which
they might be identified as car
rying the virus,” said Foreman.
The report said the most effec
tive metnod of containing the
virus was to “win the confidence
of those most affected by the dis
ease.”
In addition to fear, the AIDS
stigma often masks racism or
prejudices against the high-risk
groups: homosexual men, drug
abusers and prostitutes, said
Foreman.
AIDS is a deadly virus which
attacks the body’s immune
system and is spread mainly by
sexual contact, the'use of contam
inated needles among drug
abusers, and transfusion of
tainted blood.
