HACKENSACK, N.J. (AP) — A college ‘student who
set a fire’ that killer her nine-yeat-old brother was
sentenced to five years in a Roman Catholic religious
community’ instead of prison because the judge said he
‘wanted to “save this girl.”

‘Ann Marie O'Brien, 18, who could have received 10
years in prison, wept and thanked the judge after the
sentence was announced Friday.

O'Brien was described as a naive and inexperienced
young woman raised in a strict’ Catholic family who set
the fire in'a fit of “adolescent”. rage.

“Instead of rebelling in the normal ways, she was
almost too good as she was growing up,” said lawyer
Ellen Koblitz.

“Finally, being the éldest of seven children, she
couldn't handle the very normal kind of conflicts adoles-
cents have with their parents. It was all kept in her until
this incident.”

Reaganomics

WASHINGTON (AP) —
President Reagan insisted
Saturday that his economic
program is working and ap-
pealed to Americans for sup-

port.

Recounting. the United |
States’ recent economic his-
tory in his regular Saturday
radio address, Reagan said:
“Back in i879, inflation was
rising, unemployment’ was
increasing and by 1980 we
were in a recession . ... In-
flation was in double digits
(10 per cent or more) for 1979
and ‘80, interest rates went [img
to 21% percent and the
housing industry was at a
standstill.” ?

After he took office in
January, 1981, and set about

putting his economic pro-
gram into effect, Reagan
said, “interest rates stayed
high, unemployment kept in-
creasing and by July the bot-

cators show the economy ac-
tually emerged froin the 1980
recession before ' plunging
into another in July, 1981,
which as proved to be the
deepest dive since the Great
Depression.

But it was that same sum-
mer, Reagan ‘said, that, Con-
gress passed most of his

went into effect in October,
1981, starting. with the first

years,

“Interest rates are about

Automobile sales are up, as

$6 million paid to dead

WASHINGTON (AP} —
check of records from a
states, New York City and
the federal Veterans Admin-
istration has uncovered 1,411
cases in which U.S. Social
Security paid more than $6
million to dead people.

That may be just the tip of
the iceberg, says Social Sec-
urity Commissioner John
Svahn, who suspects that the
agency may have paid a total
of $100 million to the de-
ceased,

There is one confirmed
case in which the beneficiary

had been dead since 1965 and
another, still under inves-
tigation, where the person
may have died in 1962, said
John Trollinger, an agency
spokesman.

The average case involves
an overpayment of ‘about
$5,600, but in one case
$50,000 was paid over the
years to a dead beneficiary,
Trollinger said.

The agency began & com-
puter check of state death
records last year after ‘it
found more than 5,000 cases
of people listed as dead on
Medicare records who had

received $30 million in Social
Security benefits.

Some people listed as dead
by Medicare or the state
were discovered to be actu-
ally alive. During the Medi-
care match, investigators
found more than 3,200 mis-
taken death reports.

In one case in Dallas,
Svahn said, a Social Security
official went to the home of a
man shown as deceased on
Texas records, spotted
smoke, banged on the door
and roused the “dead” man
and his wife, who escaped the
fire.

riding, who was transport
minister in Clark's 1979 gov-
ernment. .

The party constitution
says a leadership convention
must be called if 50 per cent
plus one of the delegates vote
for a convention or if the
leader dies or resigns. .

“Technically and legally,
Mr. Clark did not have to re-
sign,” Mazankowski said. The
former prime minister re-
ceived 66.9 per cent for the
delegates’ votes that “he
considered not to be satis-
factory.”

Still, “. . ..he could very
well be reaffirmed as a leader
with 50 per cent plus one...
that’s the irony of the whole
exercise...”

Party officials say the con-
vention will be held some-
time this summer.

Perrin Beatty, another for-..
mer Clark cabinet: minister,
said in a-separate interview
he believes Clark is “the
best-qualified person in Can-
ada” to be prime minister,
but has not made up his mind
whether to support him.

“I think that I would very
much liked to have seen him
stay on, but I think he made
the right decision,” Beatty
told Ottawa radio station
CFGO.

The MP for the Ontario
riding of Wellington-Duffer-
in-Simcoe said he has a res-
ponsibility to,consult his con-
stituency association and
others before deciding “what
the best step is to take.”

He left open the possibility
of running himself, but said
he would tell Clark first if he
does.
