The world's press has been largely shut out of the Algerian civil war, which has claimed 600 to 1,000 victims each month since this summer. Islamic militants fighting for more than two years to establish a Muslim theocracy in the Iranian mold have declared Algerian and foreign journalists to be prime targets

When Patricia A. Woodworth was recruited as Michigan's budget director in 1991, she inherited a deficit equal to nearly 25 percent of the state budget as well as a history of Federal mandates and state court decisions that left little leeway to reduce spending. She immediately took aim at Michigan's welfare program and aggressively lobbied the Legislature to scrap relief for employable single adults -- a goal that skeptics figured she could not accomplish. "We just eliminated it," Ms. Woodworth recalled yesterday. "Not in the first year, but we got it done in the second. At that point, one house of the Legislature was Democratic, but the Democrats went along. Public sympathy was for cutting taxes and reducing government spending and they read the writing on the wall."

Facing growing public opposition to the war in secessionist Chechnya, President Boris N. Yeltsin said on television tonight that he intended to press forward to seize the rebel capital but that he had ordered a halt to the bombing of civilians there. It was the first time Mr. Yeltsin, who sent tanks and thousands of troops to Chechnya on Dec. 11, spoke up publicly to justify his actions. It was also the first time the Russian Government has admitted attacking civilians in the secessionist republic.

Politics has always been a contact sport in America. Even Abraham Lincoln said that just to read the attacks on him, he would have to shut his office. Still, in the 1994 campaign, negative messages, groundless attacks on character, outright lying and distorted images dragged political advertising to a new low. The cutthroat ads followed a disturbing formula. In clipped, agitated tones, attack your opponent's character. Distort his record. Associate her with extremists or unpopular political figures. To awaken fear, work in a between-the-lines racist message; to foster suspicion, insinuate corrupt behavior. And by all means, steer clear of substantive issues.

Setting in motion Albany's first changing of the guard in 12 years, Matilda Raffa Cuomo gave Libby R. Pataki her first tour of the Executive Mansion today, and Gov. Mario M. Cuomo bade farewell to a Capitol press corps that he had alternately charmed and chided during his years in office. Ever since Election Day, Mr. Cuomo joked with the reporters, he had been looking for a chance to turn a famous quote of Richard M. Nixon's on its head: "Well guys," he said today, "I lost. Now I won't have you to kick around anymore."

Five days before his inauguration, Governor-elect George E. Pataki reached beyond his small circle of confidants yesterday and named as budget director the chief fiscal officer in Michigan, a state that national Republicans consider at the forefront of their effort to rein in government. By naming Patricia A. Woodworth to one of his administration's top posts, Mr. Pataki was sending a clear signal, aides said, that his bottom line will be cutting taxes and reducing state spending.

The Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation said yesterday it would take a charge of $195 million, or 89 cents a share, in the fourth quarter related to previously announced job cuts. The cuts will save the Syracuse company about $60 million in operating costs for 1995 alone, which will be used to trim its electric and natural-gas rate requests. Including the latest cuts, Niagara Mohawk said it will have reduced staff by more than 3,100 employees since early 1993.

The Procyte Corporation said yesterday that its board had rejected an unsolicited buyout offer from Scherer Healthcare Inc. and Derma Sciences Inc., which have agreed to merge. Procyte said it viewed the offer by the companies as an attempt by Scherer "to finance the current operations and future growth of its money-losing holdings." Scherer officials could not be reached to comment. The Scherer-Derma offer called for Scherer to exchange one share for 3.4 shares of Procyte. At the same time, Scherer would exchange one share for every 4.1 Derma shares.
