Findings on other tested vehicles were: Mazda MPV, rated marginal because of damage to occupant compartment. Dodge Grand Caravan-Chrysler Town Country-Plymouth Grand Voyager, rated marginal, structural performance seemed good but there was too much damage near the dummy's feet. Honda Odyssey-Isuzu Oasis, rated marginal because of damage in the footwell area. Nissan Quest-Mercury marginal because of potential leg" injury and contact of the dummy's head with the steering wheel through the airbag.

Chevrolet Astro-GMC Safari rated poor because of occupant-corn partment damage and potential lower leg injury. Ford Aerostar, rated poor for occupant-compartment damage and. substantial upward and rearward movement of the steering wheel.

"What the new crash test results reveal is that injury risk in passenger vans would be even lower if all of them performed like the Windstar," O'Neill said. O'Neill also pointed out that the Windstar recorded an excellent performance in the government's test a 35 mph head-on crash into a barrier prompting him to give the vehicle a "best pick" rating. The poor performance of the Pontiac was attributed to an under-body beam supporting the engine. In an accident, "instead of crumpling, this beam acts like a battering ram, driving backward and contributing to the collapse of the occupant compartment," O'Neill said.

The institute report said that damage to the test dummies suggested people in such an accident would suffer leg and probably neck injuries. "The GM minivans are safe vehicles," responded Pontiac spokesman Kyle Johnson, who said the company had conducted 72 tests of the vehicles in a variety of crash situations. He criticized the institute for producing ratings based on a single test involving a type of accident he termed extremely rare. "Any automobile manufacturer would be severely criticized if it marketed the safety of its vehicle on the basis of only one test," Johnson said in a statement. 12-10 1-7 11-29 12-16 1-15 3-3 .035 25 2175 40 Arbor Drugs Enron GJJPw Sorter Corp HarsooCorp TUESDAY DIVIDENDS DECLARED Pt- at pay- riod rati record ibte RREGULAA CrasTWMsHyly .1417 11-29 12-13 FaeaPdclstlc 221 12-16 12-20 x- sutjeti to approval: payable it Cdn Inda .33 12-3 12-13 Mic1MIFd .24 12-3 12-13 Managed HI km .081 12-23 12-27 Managed rt Ira .09 1-28 1-31 Managed Hiiro .09 2-25 2-28 PermanBaanRyty .0503 11-29 12-13 SatomonflraeFd 1.675 12-2 12-13 x- rdudes 075 torn rcome and 1 .60 Iran captal gains.

MILLIONAIRES, from page El an estimated 3.5 million of them has a net worth of $3.7 million, probably owns a small business and doesn't show many outward signs of being rich, he said. "The fact is, you don't have to wear a $5,000 watch, you don't have to have an expensive car," Stanley said. What's the point of being rich, then? "It's not to be a miser.

It's to say to yourself, 'I do not have to rely on somebody else for 15 or 20 years for my he said. "People say I it's dull. You know what's dull? Dull is waking up each morning and worrying that you might lose your I job." Stanley has profiled the typical millionaire in a series of books aimed at businesses that seek to identify and attract well-heeled clients. But his new book, The Millionaire Next Door, written with researcher William D. Danko of Albany, N.

is directed instead at individuals and families who want to become rich. The major point of the book, published this month by Longstreet Press, is summed up in one of its chapter titles: "Frugal Frugal Frugal." Among that chapter's findings: After MasterCard and Visa, which That's a trap many otherwise prudent millionaires fall into, Stanley said. For example, according to the authors, 43 percent of millionaires who have grandchildren pay for all or part of their private-school tuition. But the authors' research found the recipients of "economic outpatient care" end up less affluent than the givers, although they may achieve professional success. The self-restraint that allowed the parents to attain wealth disappears from the children, Stanley said.

"The more outpatient care that you give to adult children, the more they spend," he said. "We asked a lot of millionaires, how did you raise such great kids? They said, 'We never told them we were Stanley, who started his career as a assistant professor, has taken his research to heart. Wealthy himself, Stanley favors flannel shirts and well-worn loafers. He lives in a handsome, although not opulent, two-story house in suburban Atlanta with a 1993 Camaro and 1994 Ford Explorer in the garage. "It's discipline and hard work and focus," he said.

"It's just like losing weight or exercising. A lot of people know they should do it. They have a room filled with exercise equipment. But they never do it themselves." also are the most popular credit cards with the general public, the most widely held card among wealthy households is the Sears card. About twice as many millionaires have a Sears card as a Neiman Marcus card, according to Stanley.

Further, the most popular car brand among millionaires is Ford, the authors found. "For every luxury car buyer that's a millionaire, there are six that are not millionaires," Stanley said. "So it's the higher-income, low-net-worth person that's driving a luxury car." Stanley recalled one millionaire to whom friends planned to give a Rolls Royce for his 65th birthday. The man found out and put a stop to it. "He said, 'It's totally incompatible with my What he was saying, was: If you have the car, you've got to change the house.

You change the house you've got to have a rug that's compatible with it, you've got to have the furniture." The authors also asked millionaires the highest price they ever paid for a suit. More than half said they'd never spent more than $399. A large portion of the book is devoted to what the authors call "economic outpatient care," the showering of financial gifts on the children of wealthy parents.

City Councilman Cody Williams hailed the project as one that will create an attractive entry to the airport and signal the importance of ethnic diversity to the Valley.

Chinese-American business people said the cultural center will fulfill a longtime dream of their community, providing a place where they can meet and where others can come to learn more about China and its heritage. Other similar projects over the years have failed, community leaders said. "Many have tried, but they didn't have the necessary wherewithal," said Leung Eng, president of the Chinese American Citizens Alliance. "This is a big step forward." The project, designed by Cornoyer-Hedrick architects, is being built by Kitchell Corp. Deputy City Manager Ray Bladine said COFCO's financial muscle makes the project much more likely to succeed than the Mercado, an ill-fated Hispanic-oriented office and retail complex in downtown Phoenix.

"They don't compare," he said. "COFCO is one of the largest corporations in the world, and they see Phoenix as a place where the Chinese want to invest.
