9A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2017 WORLD IN BRIEF Associated Press In Ivanka Trump’s China, business ties shrouded in secrecy SHANGHAI — It is no secret that the bulk of Ivanka Trump’s merchandise comes from China. But just which Chinese compa- nies manufacture and export her handbags, shoes and clothes is more secret than ever, an Associated Press investigation has found. In the months since she took her White House role, public information about the companies importing Ivanka Trump goods to the U.S. has become harder to find. Information that once rou- tinely appeared in private trade tracking data has vanished, leaving the identities of companies involved in 90 per- cent of shipments unknown. Even less is known about her manufacturers. Trump’s brand, which is still owned by the first daughter and presiden- tial adviser, declined to disclose the information. The deepening secrecy means it’s unclear who Ivanka Trump’s company is doing busi- ness with in China, even as she and her husband, Ivanka Jared Kushner, have emerged as important con- Trump duits for top Chinese officials in Washington. The lack of disclosure makes it difficult to understand whether foreign governments could use business ties with her brand to try to influence the White House — and whether her com- pany stands to profit from foreign government subsidies that can destroy American jobs. Such questions are especially pronounced in China, where state-owned and state-subsidized companies dom- inate large swaths of commercial activity. “There should be more transparency, but right now we do not have the legal mechanism to enforce transparency unless Congress requests information through a subpoena,” said Richard Painter, who served as chief White House ethics lawyer for George W. Bush, and is part of a lawsuit against President Donald Trump for alleged constitutional violations. “I don’t know how much money 651 Help Wanted Full-Time Employment Englund Marine seeks an experienced Accounts Payable Assistant to provide accounts payable support with a variety of clerical activities and related tasks.

I think it’s putting our trade policy in a very awkward situation.” An AP review of the records that are available about Ivanka Trump’s supply chain found two potential red flags. In one case, a province in eastern China announced the award of export subsi- dies to a company that shipped thousands of Ivanka Trump hand- bags between March 2016 and February of this year, Chinese pub- lic records show — a possible violation by China of global fair trade rules, trade experts said. As senators defect, GOP concedes health bill’s fate bleak WASHINGTON — Republican Sen. Susan Collins’ decision to oppose the GOP push to repeal President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul leaves the effort all but dead, with even party leaders conceding that their prospects are dismal. “It’s going to be a heavy lift,” South Dakota Sen. John Thune, the No. 3 GOP Senate leader, said Monday, after Collins joined a small but pivotal cluster of Republicans saying they’re against the measure. He called the prospects “bleak.” “We don’t have the support for it,” said Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah. The collapse marks a replay of the embarrassing loss President Donald Trump and party leaders suffered in July, when the Senate rejected three attempts to pass legislation erasing Obama’s 2010 statute.

Israeli officials said the attacker was a 37-year-old Palestinian father of four who appeared to have acted alone. The attack comes at a tense period amid the Jewish high holi- days and is likely to complicate the mediation efforts of U.S. peace envoy Jason Greenblatt who had just arrived in the region for meet- ings with Israeli and Palestinians leaders. Speaking at his weekly Cabinet meeting, Israeli Prime Minis- ter Benjamin Netanyahu said the attack was partially a result of systematic Palestinian incitement and said he expected Palestin- ian President Mahmoud Abbas to “condemn this attack and not try to justify it.” Police spokeswoman Luba Samri said the attacker approached the back gate entrance of the Har Adar settlement, hiding among dozens of Palestinian day laborers who were being checked by security forces. Water and some food scarce as Puerto Rico emerges from storm SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Supermarkets are gradually re-opening in hurricane-ravaged Puerto Rico but the situation is far from normal and many customers are going home disappointed. Most food stores and restaurants remain closed. That is largely because power is out for most of the island and few have gener- ators or enough diesel to power them. The shops that were open Monday had long lines outside and vast empty shelves where they once held milk, meat and other perishables. Drinking water was nowhere to be found. Mercedes Caro shook her head in frustration as she emerged from the SuperMax in the Condado neighborhood of San Juan with a loaf of white bread, cheese and bananas. “There is no water and practically no food,” she said. “Not even spaghetti.” 667 Loans & Financing 828 Misc for Sale NOTICE TO CONSUMERS The Federal Trade Commission prohibits telemarketers from asking for or receiving payment before they deliver credit repair services, advance fee loans and credit, and recovery services.
