...results thus far have been ominous. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that in 22 of those states, highway deaths jumped 46% between May and July over the same three months in 1986. "Because of a few macho Westerners," says Howard, "more people are going to be killed." Neither the Reagan Administration nor Senator Don Nickles, the Oklahoma Republican who sponsored the latest bill, attaches much significance to these early fatality figures. Observes Nickles: "I don't think it is the speed limit that kills people so much as the behavior of the people driving." He argues that...
Ellmann's Wilde is neither the corrupt seducer his enemies reviled nor the Orphic martyr enshrined by his champions. He emerges instead as a celebrant of mixed motives, a pioneer in the uncharted terrain of what would much later, and inelegantly, be termed the identity crisis.

A more conciliatory Kim Young Sam, who drew 28%, said his party would work with Roh to revise laws for National Assembly elections. The offer seemed aimed at repairing Kim's credibility as an effective political force. Said Lee Chul, an opposition National Assembly member...
