Conservatives given mandate in recent Hungarian elections
BUDAPEST, Hungary — Voters ended the Communist era by giving a strong mandate to the country’s main conservative party in what could be the genesis of a center-right trend among Soviet bloc countries delving into democracy.
The Hungarian Democratic Forum campaigned on an anti-Communist platform that incorporated universal conservative values as well as a strong dose of nationalism. It scored an impressive victory in parliamentary elections that wrapped up Sunday.
It was the second win in two Soviet bloc elections for conservative forces. In East Germany’s March 18 vote, conservatives fell just short of a majoiity in the first free national elections in any Warsaw Pact country.
Hungary’s Democratic Forum captured 165 of the 386 seats at stake Sunday.
Nation: Savings and loan bailout to cost more money
WASHINGTON — The Bush administration conceded today that the savings-and-loan bailout will cost taxpayers more than previously estimated.
“There’s no question that the cost is increasing and we’ll have to take that into account in deciding future actions," said White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater.
His comments were in response to Friday’s report by the General Accounting Office — an investigatory arm of Congress — that the 10-year cost of the program would be $243 billion instead of the $166 billion estimated by the administration.

Bush to aid Chinese students
335 Trojans await executive order
By Paul Malcolm
Staff Writer
President Bush has announced he will give an executive order designed to strengthen and expand protections for Chinese students studying in the United States, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Speaking before the American Society of Newspaper Editors on Friday, Bush said he plans to issue the order to give protections provided to Chinese students four months ago the force of law. These protections allow Chinese students to remain in this country until 1994.
Student sent to hospital after crash
By Katie Sweeney
Staff Writer
A university student was reported to be in stable condition at County / USC Medical Center after his motorcycle was hit by a car driven by another university student at the intersection of Hoover and 30th Streets Monday.
Abraham Arye, 19, a sophomore majoring in psychology, suffered no broken bones or internal injuries, but remained at the hospital pending a brain CAT scan, said Officer Charles Walton of the LAPD South traffic division.
The driver of the car — Jackson Cooper, a senior majoring in political science and philosophy — was not injured.
The two collided at approximately 12:50 p.m. when Cooper turned left from 30th in front of Ayre at the intersection, police said.
But police also said that Ayre, while traveling east on 30th, cut around two cars in front of him — including one that was waiting to turn left — and entered the intersection.
Though Ayre normally would have the right of way because he was going straight on 30th and Cooper was turning left, Walton said Arye might have made an ''unsafe lane change" by cutting
The order will affect 335 Chinese students at the university, said Dixon Johnson, executive director of international studies and overseas programs.
In addition to the measures already in effect, Bush said he will provide new protections sought by Chinese students who met with him last week. These will allow Chinese students to travel abroad and hold jobs in this country, the Times report said.
But also in January, Bush vetoed a congressional bill sponsored by Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-San Fransisco) that would have given Chinese students similar protec-
tions now offered under the executive order. At the time, Bush said he was vetoing the bill because it would jeopardize the future of educational exchanges between the United States and China.
Qiang Wan, a graduate student in computer science, said Bush's change of heart is a major step in protecting students.
“It's a positive measure and offers more protection and I definitely feel more secure now," he said.
Wan said students are still wary of the Chinese government's promises not to restrict or harass returning students because of their involvement in last year's democracy movement.

around the vehicles in front of him.
Walton said that even if Cooper is found to be at fault, there can be no criminal charges filed against him because he had no criminal intent.
"Any action will be dvil," Walton said. "(Cooper) obviously feels terrible."
After the initial collision, Walton said, Arye was trapped beneath the car.
"His head was jammed between the bottom of the car and the pavement," Walton said.
The fire department used a hydraulic lift to raise the car as Ayre was pulled from beneath, Walton said. He estimated that it took about 10 minutes to free him Arye was not wearing a helmet, he said.
