    United States President, Bill Clinton, has been approached by Caribbean governments asking him to help avert a pending strike by American Airlines. They fear that the strike could have disastrous consequences for Caribbean tourism. Next, Minister of Culture Armando Hart has been dismissed from the Cuban government. Mr. Hart has been a member of the Cuban government from the early days of the revolution which brought Fidel Castro to power. In the following, former Prime Minister of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Milton died. He was the country’s first post independence prime minister and helped build the St. Vincent Labour Party. Next, Caribbean Americans and Jews in New York are sharply divided over the murder trial of Lemrick Nelson Jr. He was found innocent five years ago. However the second trial came up differently. Next, the men accused of the murder of Stephen Lawrence of Jamaican parentage refused to say anything that could incriminate them as the inquest continued. They claimed the legal right to stay quiet when they took the stand. In the final segment, a twenty nine year old woman of Caribbean origin has been named one of this year’s Academy Award film nominees. She has been nominated for her role in the film Secrets and Lies.

    In this report Trinidad and Tobago Finance Minister Wendell Mottley is not very optimistic that the NAFTA Parity bill will receive urgent US attention. In St. Vincent, Jerry Scott, Minister of Communication and Works argues that there is no need for integrity legislation. However, Deputy Opposition Leader Dr. Ralph Gonsalves states he is surprised by Mr. Scott's comments as Prime Minister Mitchell is in favour of integrity legislation. On the issue of freedom of the press, Mr. Scott also comments that there is no need for reform while the Opposition Leader Vincent Beache states that absolute freedom is not an entirely true description of St. Vincent's electronic media. In Antigua, the economy is feeling the strain from the passage of hurricane Luis. The government announced a shortfall in revenue amidst fears that some civil servants may be laid off. The Dominican Republic holds its primaries to elect a successor to President Joaquin Balaguer. The two main ruling party candidates are Jacinto Peynado and Carlos Morales Troncoso. In the US, a recent opinion poll has found former Joint Chiefs of Staff, Colin Powell would comfortably beat President Clinton in a two-way contest. In Caribbean cricket a number of calls have been made on the West Indies Cricket Board to make clear the reasons behind the omissions of Carl Hooper and Kenneth Benjamin from the squad. Hugh Crosskill examines the background to the story and suggests the way things might turn out.
