Scalia added justice Sandra Day O’Connor wrote in dissent that the ruling means millions of student ath m krtes, "an overwhelming majori ty of whom have given school official* no reason whatsoever to suspect they siw drugs at school, are open to an intrusive bodily search ” Instead, she wrote, drug test ing should be limited to cases in which teachers suspect a partic ular student has been using drugs President Clinton applauded the drug-testing ruling, saying it sends exactly the right message to parents and students Drug us« will not be tolerated in our schools. The decision reinforces the point that voting people should not use drugs.” Hut Steven Shapiro of the American Civil Liberties Union said the ruling tells young Americans “they are second class citizens who are not enti tled to prot»x tions of the Bill of Rights National Si hool Boards Asso ciation attorney Gwendolyn Gregory said public schools have rarely tested student ath letes for drugs because most assumed it was not allowed, but more may begin doing so now. The association supported the school district's appeal. Si aha said students have a lowered expet tation of privacy because of public schools role ns guardian and tutor Athletes give up even more privacy bv submitting to physical exams and putting up with "communal undress" in school locker rooms, he added University of Michigan lavs professor Yale Kamisar termed the de< ision a departure from the court's previous rulings allowing suspicionless dnig test ing Those cases — involving rail ■ mpioy ees ins ul\ ed in train accidents and federal cus toms officers who carry weapons or an? involved in drug interdiction — focused on safety or the sensitivity of some jobs, bi> said. Monday's ruling threw out a federal appeals < ourt dec ision that said the Vernonia School District's drug-testing policy violated students' right to priva cy The justices returned the case to the lower court to recon sider i ruling that the policy also violated the Oregon Consti tution. The case began when seventh grader James Acton was barred from his junior high football team in 1001 for refusing to undergo a drug urinalysis. Trade war could spark world recession WASHING! I)N (AP) If Japan art<1 Ihii United States launch an all-out trad® war — no longer considered unthinkable — some believe the battle between the world's two largest economies could trigger n worldwide rot ession Kconomists toniede that would be the dooms day scenario But even the most optimistic sav such a fight would reduce economic growth oml have worldwide repercussions, although most believe that Japan, already at risk of dipping into recession, would suffer more than the United States Both countries are playing with fire." said Robert normals, a vice president at Goldman Sac hs in New York "You can t hove a trade dis pute of this magnitude between the two biggest financ ial powers in the world without an impart on other areas ” Of c ourse, last-ditch talks that began Monday between U S Trad® Representative Mic key Kantor and Japanese Trade Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto could vet produce an agreement before U S sanc tions on Japanese luxury c ars take effect at 12:01 a in. Thursday But if those discussions don't succ eed — and prospects are cloudy at best — then analysts said US. policymakers should star! making contin gency plans to deal with the fallout from what threatens to become the biggest trade dispute since the 1930s The first short to drop could well be counter retaliation by Japan, where officials met last week to discuss imposing their own punitive tariffs. High on the hit list are two of America's biggest sellers in the Japanese market — food and air craft If Japan does retaliate, that would fit the classic definition of a trade war in which sanctions hv one country are met by counter-retaliation by the other nation. The Japanese, however, might choose to retali ate in another way Some believe that Japan's recent rejection of President Clinton's call for a tougher economii embargo against Iran was just such n retaliation And they suspect that Japan's hard-line stance in a fight with Federal Express over expanded landing rights could be another spill over from the hitter auto dispute. There also has been a rumor roiling ITS finan cial markets that the Japanese might stop buying ITS. Treasury bonds. That would put upward pressure on American interest rates as the gov ernment was furs et! to pav more to sell its debt Even if Japan doesn't seek retribution in bond markets, economists warn that markets are likely to remain jittery if the U S. sanctions go into effect, fearing further hostilities FUTON SALE Full-size.frajne'antffutnn - ROCK SOFT FUTOIM 1231 ALDER ST.
