"The president said hn wants to see this problem dealt with, hopes that Hussia will deal with it, because it could cat the heart out of Russian society, if the problem of corruption is not dealt with," Berger said. "lin said he wants Hussia to be strong." On arms control, Putin bluntly said that ratification of the long-stalled STAHT II arms-reduction treaty "would be difficult" but that he said "we're trying our best," Berger said. For years, Yeltsin and other officials have spo ken optimistically about the treaty's ehances, but it has remained sidelined. "lie thought there was some wavering among the opposi tion to STArn II and that we should continue our discus sions on STAHT Ill {a proposed treaty for even df)eper nudear cuts) which would facilitate ratification of STAIn II." Berger said. At Clinton's urging, the United States and Hussia are discussing possible changes in the landmark AntiBallistic Missile Treaty which limits both countries from develop ing anti-missile systems. Clinton argues that a limited missile defense system is needed to protect against pos sible ·attack by rogun nations or terrorists. Putin said he undcrcstands Clinton's concerns but that they must be addressed in a way that takes into acccount the security concerns of othnr countries. Hussia has opposed development of an American anti-missile program. VIEWPOINT THE page 10 OBSERVER Monday, September 13, 1999 THE OBSERVER P.O.

When he comes to St. Paul next weekend, Vonnegut will be acknowledging his new short-story collection, "Bagombo Snuff Box" -gathered with the help of a local professor- but he's got too much on his mind to merely recite old prose. ''I'll talk about stuff that bothers me, like the way people are being cheated out of the experience of 'becoming.' It's the computer which becomes now. People think, 'Oh, boy, wait until I get this new pro gram.' Bill Gates will give you a program to write a perfect Shakespearean sonnet. For God's sake, that's not becoming," Vonnegut said. · "People should practice an art in order to make their souls grow and not to make money or become famous. Paint a picture. Write." Vonnegut will share his thoughts Saturday at Central Presbyterian Church in St. Paul.

Cagny also owns Jill, the scene-stealing Brussels Griffon in "As Good As It Gets," and Clovis, the golden retriever who played Shadow in the film. "Homeward Bound." And for Moose. there's only one real director. "We're like an old married couple," Cagny said.
