Tuesday, September 30, 1986 THE HERALD, Provo, Utah, Page 17 National and World News in Soui'heois'S Asia riepmti irsciy sti Tighe subsequently put together a panel consisting of both current and former officials of the DIA and the Central Intelligence Agency as well as former prisoners-of-war. According to the sources, Tighe filed his final report with Perroots earlier this month. In it, he offered a number of suggestions for improving DIA's internal "analytical process" for investigating live-sighting reports. Pentagon spokesmen declined to discuss the matter Monday night, telling reporters they would have to await Perroots' briefing today. would meet with reporters today to discuss the Tighe report Several administration officials subsequently agreed to discuss the matter in advance on the condition they were not identified.

Tighe, who retired in 1981, has expressed his personal belief in the past that Americans are still being held in Southeast Asia. Last March, Perroots responded to those statements by inviting Tighe to conduct "a complete review of all (live-sighting) reports" since his retirement. WASHINGTON (AP) A new Pentagon report contains no new hard evidence, but nevertheless concludes that the possibility is strong that American servicemen are being held against their will in Southeast Asia, administration sources say. The report, prepared by a task force under retired Lt. Gen.

Eugene F. Tighe, former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, does not establish "beyond all doubt" that Vietnam War-era POWs remain behind, the sources said Monday. It also concludes that no evidence substantiates charges the Reagan administration has purposely covered up evidence of live prisoners, the officials added. Nonetheless, the task force concluded the preponderance of the available intelligence information supports a conclusion that American POWs are still alive and held against their will, the sources said. "It's kind of like saying where there's smoke, there's fire," concluded one of the sources.

"But had gone a step beyond the current policy. The Reagan administration's policy is to assume that since there is no conclusive proof to the contrary, there might be some live Americans in Southeast Asia. Under that policy, the DIA continues to investigate all "live-sighting reports" received from Southeast Asia. The Pentagon announced late Monday that Lt. Gen.

Leonard H. Perroots, the Air Force general who currently directs the DIA, they didn't come up with a smoking gun as I understand it, and they cleared the administration of any cover-up." A classified version of Tighe's report will be presented to Congress this morning and an unclassified summary later released to reporters, according to the sources. The officials argued Monday that the conclusion differs only seman-tically from current U.S. policy. But the descriptions of the report appeared to suggest the task force Reagan asks for a global economy at IMF conference Storms rumble through Midwest, cause millions of dollars damage WASHINGTON (AP) Pres.

Reagan called on world financial leaders today to join the United States in developing "a truly global economy" with open markets and stable exchange rates. Acknowledging there would be some economic "dislocation" in the process, Reagan sought to assure his audience at the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund that the United States and other nations already are enjoying the fruits of freer markets and lowered trade barriers. At the same time, a $12 billion rescue plan for debt-plagued Mexico appeared to be taking final shape in a series of high-level negotiations. The private talks continued today after the IMF extended by one day a Monday deadline for the accord. Mexican officials and private banks failed to nail down the rescue package on Monday in talks that lasted past midnight.

Agreement was reported to be close, however. "My friends, I believe that the challenge before us is to develop a truly global economy one that celebrates the diversity of our nations while it opens us to uninhibited trade and investment among our peoples," Reagan said in remarks prepared for the IMF. He offered no specific plan for building on the agreement worked out at last May's economic summit in Tokyo to help stabilize international exchange rates. Instead, he said, "Let us look with open minds at ways of promoting stable exchange rates and assuring sound money. Let us approach with open minds the next round of trade talks and push them as far as we can to our goal of eliminating all trade barriers." Boasting of improvements in the U.S.

economy during his six years in office, Reagan said, "Our growth has fueled the growth of the entire world economy." And the "message of economic freedom" he has preached for years "is at last being heard and acted upon in Europe and Africa, in Asia and Latin America," the president said. ftp: i 5- i A A i WA 1 -T Lt. Gov. George Ryan, who used a boat to tour the streets of Gurnee, outside Chicago, pronounced the scene "probably the worst flooding I've seen in Main Street in Gurnee, just west of Waukegan and north of Chicago, was under 2 feet of water Monday, and officials at the Gurnee Elementary School reported 5 feet of water in some classrooms. A search was under way in the north Chicago suburb of Liberty-ville for a man in his 20s whose boat capsized in the swollen Des Plaines River.

In North Riverside west of Chicago, sections of the roof of a Kmart store and the building of an automobile dealership collapsed during a thunderstorm Monday, damaging 16 cars and sending at least seven people to hospitals with minor injuries, authorities said. Thirty miles west in Aurora, the entire roof was blown off a two-story condominium apartment building, said Police Sgt. Gerald Soos. No injuries were reported. Forest Hospital, a private mental-health facility in suburban Des Plaines, evacuated 85 patients and 85 staff members due to the threat of flooding.

The patients were bused to other local hospitals. At least 165 families have been displaced by the flooding, said Lake County Sheriff's Deputy Steve Townsend. All Des Plaines residents can do, Mayor John Seitz said, "is pray for the sun." In Iowa, Gov. Terry Branstad on Monday night signed a declaration declaring Jasper County a disaster area because of Sunday night's storm, which leveled a 100-year-old farm house. ''It just kind of rained and the wall shuddered and it just tumbled and then it was said Donna Cross, 72, who lost the farm home.

Severe thunderstorms pum-meled the nation's mid-section, causing millions of dollars in damage and spawning floods that forced the evacuation of hundreds of people and left one man feared drowned. "The entire village of Gurnee is gone," said Lake County sheriff's Sgt. Steve Townsend said of the Illinois community. "The police are patrolling in boats. The situation is very, very bad." Up to 8 inches of rain fell on Oklahoma Monday as thunderstorms and at least one tornado caused extensive damage, officials said.

Hundreds of residents north of Oklahoma City were evacuated because of flooding. "We've got a lot of flood water. We've got a little looting, and we've got some traffic problems. But otherwise, we're doing pretty good," said Howard Watson, director of the Kingfisher City-County Civil Defense, which oversaw the evacuation of 300 residents. Thunderstorms dumped rain on Michigan's waterlogged Lower Peninsula on Monday, as a tornado in Genesee County destroyed three homes and damaged five others, knocked down power lines, and blew trees on cars and houses, authorities said.

Residents of flood-drenched northeastern Illinois hoped for sun today after Monday's storms ripped roofs from buildings west of Chicago, resulted in flight delays and cancellations at O'Hare International Airport, and continued flooding that has caused an estimated $30 million in damage. Heavy rain Monday also caused flooding in Missouri and Kansas while thunderstorms pounded Indiana. Rivers were above flood stage in South Dakota and North Dakota. Farmers in central Iowa cleaned up in the wake of a tornado, strong winds and hail that destroyed a dozen buildings and caused an estimated $2 million in damage. In Oklahoma, thunderstorms Rebels threaten efforts to send food to Sudan Farmers in Baxter, Iowa salvage grain from damaged silos.

from Khartoum to the southern cities of Juba and Malakal, which are held by the government. An earlier plan, endorsed by the rebels but vetoed by the government, would have carried supplies to the rebel-controlled town of Yir-ol and the government-held town of Wau. "Until arrangements to put this scheme into practice are completed by all concerned parties namely SPLA, the Khartoum government and relief organizations the SPLA position is that no relief flights are to be permitted into the south," said the rebel broadcast, monitored in Nairobi. NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) A relief official said an emergency airlift of food for starving people in southern Sudan will go ahead despite an announcement from rebels in the area that they will not grant safe passage to the planes. The Sudan People's Liberation Army rebel group, which shot down a civilian airliner last month, said in a radio broadcast Monday that it could not accept the plan of international relief agencies to aid some of the estimated 2-3 million people threatened with starvation in Sudan's south.

The plan put forward by the agencies in Khartoum, Sudan's capital, calls for a C-130 Hercules transport to fly food and medicine were closed because of high water. "The bridge near my home was under water. I don't know if it's going to get into my house or not but I didn't want to take any chances," said Connie Ross at a temporary shelter. In Illinois, where forecasters were predicting even more rain, damage from the recent storms was estimated at $30 million. packing winds up to 60 mph ripped the roofs off a church and an unoccupied office building in Oklahoma City, Monday.

Damage was estimated at nearly $1 million. A tornado demolished a vacant mobile home near the city, officials said. In Kingfisher, water rose to 18 inches in some areas, and one car was trapped up to its windshield.
