Man in the News: Abner Joseph Mikva; Judge on a Return Mission to Politics
Date: 12 August 1994
By Douglas Jehl
Douglas Jehl
In installing Abner J. Mikva, a prominent former lawmaker who is now a Federal judge, as his new White House counsel, President Clinton has turned once again to a pillar of official Washington -- a man who said recently that he was "too old, too white, too male and too liberal" ever to be named to the Supreme Court. Judge Mikva, a ruddy-faced 68-year-old Chicagoan, will return to the political wars through the unusual step of surrendering a lifetime appointment on the bench -- he is chief judge of the Federal Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia -- to enter service in the executive branch at an age when many men have already retired.

ALLEGHENY COMMUTER AIRLINES IN PACT WITH PILOTS
Date: 12 August 1994
By Bloomberg News
Bloomberg News
The Allegheny Commuter Airlines unit of USAir Group Inc. reached a tentative four-year labor agreement yesterday with its pilots that the pilots' union said would lead to job reductions of more than 50 percent. The agreement ended a 27-hour negotiating session called by a Federal mediator after talks broke down on Saturday. The talks, which began almost two years ago, have been under Federal mediation since February. The Allegheny unit plans to lay off 218 of its 430 pilots in the next few months as it switches to new, twin-engine aircraft requiring only two pilots, the union said. Officials at USAir Group, based in Arlington, Va., could not immediately be reached for comment. The new agreement provides benefits for pilots expected to lose their jobs, the union said.

AT&T TO TAKE CHARGE FOR CLOSING OF EO DIVISION
Date: 11 August 1994
By Bloomberg News
Bloomberg News
The AT&T Corporation said yesterday that it would take a $50 million to $80 million charge in the third quarter to shut down its EO Inc. unit. AT&T closed EO, which tried to pioneer a wireless communicator, on July 29 because of an inability to raise new capital. A spokesman said the charge would take no more than 4 cents a share off the company's earnings for the year, not enough to affect AT&T's ability to meet its earnings targets. EO's machines, which combined fax, electronic mail, telephone and personal computer capabilities in a mobile device, were among the first of their kind, but potential buyers found them expensive and difficult to use. AT&T had a 52 percent stake in EO.
