Anderson's chances of at least finishing the race brightened considerably last week. His cash-short campaign got relief when the Federal Election Commission ruled that he will be eligible for federal funds if he winds up with 5% or more of the votes. Although how much he could get will depend on how well he draws on Election Day, Anderson now plans to borrow $5 million, raising his anticipated war chest to $ 15 million. (Candidates who do not qualify for total federal funding are allowed to raise private funds to cover the difference between their eventual government grant...
...Muammar Gaddafi unexpectedly proposed an "immediate" merger with Syria. Equally unexpected was the almost instantaneous reply of Syrian President Hafez Assad: "We extend our arm to meet with yours in unity."

At first, many of the miners would accept only cash; it took officials some time to persuade the garimpeiros to take federally endorsed checks...
FORD. Delays in down-sizing its cars and a cash bind have made Ford in many ways an even sicker company than Chrysler. Ford's big models are selling poorly, and it lags behind both Chrysler and GM in the production of small, front-wheel-drive cars. Says Auto Analyst Maryann Keller of Paine Webber Mitchell Hutchins: "Caught between GM, with all its money, and Chrysler, with a federal sugar daddy, Ford has to husband its limited resources...
