Sharon's New Government Increases Pressure on Arafat
Date: 28 February 2003
By GREG MYRE
Greg MYRE
Prime Min Ariel Sharon's new right-wing government wins parliamentary approval, and he declares that peace negotiations with Palestinians would not resume until violence stops and current Palestinian leadership is replaced; he has voiced these demands before, but now he presides over government that is considerably more hawkish than his previous one; composition of new government could complicate international efforts to restart negotiations that collapsed more than two years ago; Pres Bush has strongly supported Sharon during Middle East fighting, and both have made clear they would like to see Yasir Arafat replaced, though Arafat's position appears solid for now (M)

Young Brides Stir New Outcry on Utah Polygamy
Date: 28 February 2003
By MICHAEL JANOFSKY
Michael JANOFSKY
Utah's State Legislature takes tough new look at polygamists who marry young girls, prompted by accounts of girls who ran away after being forced to marry in their early teens; despite its unlawful status, polygamy is thriving throughout state, practiced by fundamentalist Mormons who shun mixing with outside world and live by traditions their ancestors brought west in mid-1800's; number of people in polygamous families in Utah is estimated at 50,000; they are separated by their beliefs from mainstream Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which condemned polygamy as condition of Utah statehood in 1896; officials say some girls are believed to be married as young as 11; call situation form of child abuse; in state where 70 percent of population is Mormon, many of polygamist ancestry, prosecutors have rarely filed charges against members of plural families; new law being considered would impose stiff new penalties against any polygamist convicted of marrying girl under 18 and any religious leader who orchestrates such a union; polygamists and their supporters oppose proposal as religious persecution; photo (M)
