...rightful role to play in the peace process. Said Dayan: "The P.L.O. is not a state, but we cannot deny its position or its value in the conflict and eventually, in order to reach a solution." P.L.O. Leader Yasser Arafat dismissed Dayan's words as a "Zionist tap dance...

Construction work is far behind schedule at the massive underground salt domes along the Louisiana and Texas Gulf Coast, where approximately a one-month supply of oil, or 248 million bbl., is supposed to be stored by year's end. So far only about 80 million bbl. of crude-little more than a week's supply-has been stockpiled. What is more, Energy Department technicians are still struggling with technical...
