CHILDREN'S CAMP Woman Wins Lawsuit In Death Of Son A St. Louis Circuit Court jury ordered Camp David Inc.

on Friday to pay a St. Louis woman $1 million in her suit over the death of her son. The church-affiliated children's camp is in St. Francois County, Mo. Sandra Hursey, 32, of SL Louis said her son, Jason Miller, 8, had been killed at the camp in July 1985 when he fell from a wagon being towed behind a vehicle and was crushed by a wagon wheel.

Robert A. Wulff, the camp's attorney, said the verdict probably would be appealed. NUCLEAR PLANT Callaway Rated High By Publication Union Electric Callaway nuclear plant gets top marks in a survey of nuclear plants in the United States conducted by Nuclear News, a publication of the American Nuclear Society. The survey, which appears in the May issue of the magazine, rated the Callaway plant as having the best capacity factor over the past three years of plants in its class. Callaway was said to have a capacity factor of 82 percent, the highest of the 40 plants capable of producing 1,000 megawatts of electricity or more.

The report said the capacity was "the highest ever for a large plant." Capacity factor is the percent of a plant's maximum generating capacity that it actually produced over a given period of time. A 100 percent capacity rating is not possible, because all plants shut down periodically for refueling and maintenance.

In a motion filed with the court this week, Westfall's attorney, George E. Schaaf, asked for a rehearing on the reprimand.

Congress Role Of White House Is Seen As Pivotal In Fray Over Abortion Rights staff attorney for the American Civil Liberty Union's Reproductive Freedom Project.

"When you've got three branches of government, and two are at odds, that gives tremendous power to the third." Douglas Johnson, legislative director of the National Right to Life Committee, said it was too early in the 102nd Congress to tell whether Wednesday's House vote was a clear indication of a House consensus. The' amendment to the 1992 military budget was adopted 220-208. "It may be that some pro-abortion measure might squeeze through Congress this year," Johnson said, "but the president has vetoed every bill that relaxed protection for unborn children, and we have every reason to believe he will continue to do so." The Supreme Court's decision on the gag rule and the House vote on abortions in military hospitals can't be compared directly. While the court case involved administrative regulations pertaining to abortion, the legal arguments focused on the Constitution's free speech rights. WASHINGTON (AP) The Supreme Court's recent abortion decisions have pitted the court like the executive branch against Congress.

The justices' 5-4 decision Thursday upholding a regulatory ban on abortion counseling and referrals at federally-subsidized, family planning clinics came a day after the House voted to allow U.S. servicewomen and their dependents to get abortions at military hospitals overseas, at their own expense. "I think it's clear that the Supreme Court and the Congress are definitely headed toward a train wreck," said Rep. Ron Wyden, who is sponsoring legislation to repeal the abortion "gag rule." Similar legislation is pending in the Senate. But in the shorter run, the arbiter is likely to be President George Bush, because Congress has not demonstrated an abortion-rights majority strong enough to override a veto on any abortion-related legislation.

"You can't downplay the sometimes decisive role of the executive branch," said Rachael Pine, senior Since abortion wasn't the center of the case, abortion-rights advocates believe that bolsters their chances of attaining a veto-proof margin in Congress to lift the gag rule. But the court's decision' was a "dramatic sign that the Supreme Court cannot be counted on" to uphold its 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision, said Marcia Greenberger, managing attorney at the National Women's Law Cen- ter. That decision held that women had a constitutional right to abortion. "That means Congress has to step into the breach and enact the protections of Roe vs.

Wade into law," she said. But that makes the ACLU's Pine uncomfortable. "Congressional politics are not always played out on the issues. Issues are played against one another, so even when you have majority support, it doesn't guarantee youll win." The National Abortion Rights Action League, the leading abortion-rights lobbying group, plans to push Congress to act by next year on a "Freedom of Choice" bill. NARAL would have Congress write into law the right of a woman to obtain an abortion that was established by Roe vs.

Wade. Late Judge Was Exonerated, Courts Official Says Post-Dispatch Jefferson City Bureau JEFFERSON CITY The chairman of the Commission on Retirement and Removal of Judges said Friday that the late Missouri Supreme Court Judge William H. Billings was cleared of any wrongdoing in connection with an allegation that he had violated the court's canon of ethics. The chairman Gary Abram of Blue Springs, Mo. said he was barred by Supreme Court rule from disclosing details of the case.

But he added: "The commission has never had cause to discipline Judge Billings on that matter or any other matter. The record on this matter is clear as far as the commission is concerned." An obituary in Friday's Post-Dispatch noted thaL in 1986, U.S. District Judge Scott O. Wright said Billings had violated the court's canon of ethics. Wright said Billings should not have telephoned an expert in a pending case without notifying all parties involved.

The Commission on Retirement and Removal of Judges never made public its findings on the matter. Its files are closed unless the commission files a formal complaint against a judge.
