Obama says nations vow to take in twice as many refugees
UNITED NATIONS (AP)
— World leaders gathered at the
United Nations pledged Tuesday
to take in 360,000 refugees next
year, President Barack Obama
said, roughly doubling the previous
year’s allowance in a bid to mitigate
the worst refugee crisis since World
War II.
The United States said 52
countries taking part in a U.S.-led
summit were stepping up to
accelerate resettlement and boost
inancial support for refugees. The
White House did not release a full
list of participating countries or a
breakdown of their pledges, making
Obama’s boast of major headway
impossible to conirm.
Obama, in an emotional event
designed to invoke empathy for
the plight of refugees, called it a
“crisis of epic proportions” that
tested both the international order
and the world’s humanity. He drew
a parallel to the Holocaust, calling
the U.S. move to turn away Jews
leeing Nazi Germany a stain on
America’s collective conscience.
“I believe history will judge

Assembly on Tuesday.
us harshly if we do not rise to this
moment,” Obama said.
The commitments announced
Tuesday fell far short of what aid
groups say is needed to address
the crisis. Some 65 million people
around the world have led their
homes because of war or persecu-
tion or to seek a better life, including
about 21.3 million considered refu-
gees by the U.N. Refugee Agency.
Millions of Palestinian refugees are
registered with the U.N.
The key driver of the modern
crisis has been Syria’s long-running
civil war, though large numbers
have also led Iraq and Afghanistan.
In an oblique reference to
Republican presidential candidate
Donald Trump, who has suggested
temporarily
banning
Muslim
immigrants, Obama said buying
into the notion that Muslim immi-
grants pose an inherent risk would
reinforce terrorists’ propaganda. He
said that would send the message
that countries like the U.S. were
“somehow opposed to Islam.”
“It is an ugly lie that must be
rejected in all our countries,”
Obama said.
Last week, the White House
announced that the U.S. would
resettle 110,000 refugees in the
coming year, a 30 percent increase
over the 85,000 allowed in this year.
Obama called on wealthier nations
to step up, adding that “we all have

to do more.”
The U.S. said countries taking
part were also pledging to increase
humanitarian aid by $3 billion.
China said it was pledging $300
million, while the United Kingdom
said it would resettle 20,000 and
provide almost $2 billion in aid — a
roughly 10 percent bump. Argentina
vowed to resettlement of Syrian
refugees but said the exact igures
would depend on how much global
assistance was provided.
“Your compassion will really
help these helpless people,” U.N.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
told world leaders. “If not us, who
can do it?”
Private companies were stepping
up, too. The White House said more
than four dozen U.S. businesses had
pledged $650 million, including
Facebook, Twitter, MasterCard,
Johnson & Johnson and yogurt
maker Chobani.
Meeting with CEOs of some of
the companies before the summit,
Obama welcomed the pledges as
more than an “extraordinary gesture
of compassion.”

Early ballots: Clinton sees
strength in NC but lags in Iowa
WASHINGTON (AP) —
Seven weeks before Election
Day, the earliest numbers from
advance voting for president
show initial strength for
Hillary Clinton in swing state
North Carolina, good news for
Donald Trump in battleground
Iowa and a record number of
requests for ballots in Ohio.
The irst early voting
igures Tuesday are too
preliminary to serve as clear
indicators about how the
election will go. Still, they
are of interest because, unlike
polls, they deal with actual
voters either casting ballots or
taking their irst steps to do so.
Campaigns are scrutinizing
these igures to help guide
their strategies.
He plans to vote for
Clinton, the Democratic
nominee. Many of his
classmates — once Bernie
Sanders supporters — are
opting to wait for now. “The
engagement is a little bit
lower,” he said.
Democrats
historically
do well in attracting early
voters, and Republicans
acknowledge their main
goal is to avoid deep deicits
before Nov. 8. With absentee
balloting underway in North
Carolina, voting kicks off this
week in Georgia, Wisconsin,
and Virginia as well as Iowa
next week.
Four years ago, about 45.6
million people or 35 percent
of the electorate, voted early.
In North Carolina, a
must-win state for Trump,
more than 53,000 voters had
requested ballots, and 2,939
had been returned, according
to data compiled by The
Associated Press. That’s up
from 47,313 ballots requested
during a similar time frame in
2012.
Broken down by party,
Democrats made up 40
percent of the ballots returned
so far compared to 33 percent
for Republicans. At this point
in 2012, Republicans were
running slightly ahead, 43
percent to 38 percent, in ballots
submitted. Republican Mitt
Romney narrowly won the
state that year and it’s dificult
to see how Trump could
accumulate the 270 electoral
votes needed to capture the
White House without winning
North Carolina.

sales
employees, trying to meet
targets that called for every
customer have eight products
with the bank, opened more
than 2 million bank and credit
card accounts, regulators said
last week in levying a $185
million ine.
Money in customers’
accounts was said to have
been moved to these new
accounts
without
their
permission. Debit cards were
issued and activated, as well
as PINs created, without
telling customers. In some
cases, bank employees even
created fake email addresses
to sign up customers for
online banking services, the
regulators said.
Wells Fargo has long
been known in the banking
industry for its aggressive
sales goals. Stumpf bristled at
Warren’s suggestion that the
sales practices were a “scam.”
He defended the cross-
selling of products — trying
to draw customers into taking
on more — as “deepening
relationships.”
The senators also chal-
lenged assertions that Stumpf
and other Wells Fargo senior
executives didn’t become
aware of the problems until
2013 — when the sales
misconduct was reported by
The Los Angeles Times. The
practices apparently began at
least in 2009.

WASHINGTON
(AP)
— The CEO of Wells Fargo
faced calls for his resignation
Tuesday from harshly critical
senators over allegations
that bank employees opened
millions of unauthorized
accounts to meet sales quotas.
Members of the Senate
Banking Committee showed
bipartisan outrage over the
long-running conduct, unsat-
isied by Chief Executive John
Stumpf’s show of contrition.
Stumpf said he was
“deeply sorry” that the bank
failed to meet its responsi-
bility to customers and didn’t
act sooner to stem “this unac-
ceptable activity.”
Sen. Elizabeth Warren
latly told Stumpf he should
step down. “You squeezed
your employees to the
breaking point so they would
cheat customers,” she said.
“You should resign. You
should give back the money
you took while the scam was
going on.”
The Massachusetts Demo-
crat, one of the iercest critics
of Wall Street, also advocated
for a criminal investigation by
the Justice Department and a
civil probe.
Stumpf, a 34-year veteran
of Wells Fargo and CEO since
2007, earned $19.3 million
last year. The bank does have
in place provisions its board
could implement to claim
back executive compensation.
