INTERNATIONAL 3-11 In West Bank Town, Bitterness Is Palpable The town of Surif in the West Bank, just a mile from the border with Israel, is a hothouse of Islamic extremism. Disillusion with the peace package, an ingrained enmity toward Israel and disgust with their Palestinian leaders are emblematic of the rusted hopes eating away at four years of peace efforts. 1 Yasir Arafat went to Egypt to seek Arab backing against what he called ''the dangerous measures'' that Israel has threatened after a devastating suicide bombing. 10 War Suspect Taunts NATO Gen. Ratko Mladic, the former Bosnian Serb commander wanted by an international tribunal on charges of war crimes, is traveling openly at home, taunting NATO forces. 8 Challenging Kenya's Goliath In a short time, Charity Kaluki Ngilu has become a thorn in the side of President Daniel arap Moi. Now she is planning to run for president. 3 Khmer Rouge Plays Old Card Even now, the Khmer Rouge rally their guerrilla forces by telling them they are fighting to liberate their country from the Vietnamese, an ever-popular theme in Cambodia. 4 Chinese Flocking to Jobs Hundreds of thousands of Chinese are flocking to a part of Hainan Island described as the Chinese Hawaii. They are part of a vast internal immigration of Chinese looking for jobs and causing a social upheaval. 6 Mexicans Study Weld Drama Mexicans are fascinated by the political battle raging over the nomination of William F. Weld as Washington's ambassador to Mexico. 9 NATIONAL 12-28 New Federal Budget Speeds Toward Deadline The spending bills that are to be signed into law by Oct. 1 are advancing this year with little partisan conflict. Most of the 13 appropriations bills have been passed by both houses of Congress. 1 Big Decision for F.D.A. As the F.D.A. considers whether to bring tobacco under its vast regulatory wing, critics and even some supporters are questioning whether it is up to the task, which would be a new direction for the agency. 1 A Question of Guilt Thomas M. Thompson is scheduled to be killed by a lethal injection in California on Tuesday, almost 15 years after his conviction for rape and murder, but his guilt is still being debated. 12 U.F.O. Lies Admitted The military lied in explaining many reports of unidentified flying objects because it wanted to hide its fleets of spy planes, the C.I.A. says. 12 Test Idea Under Fire A proposal for voluntary national tests for schoolchildren is under attack from the left, right and middle. 23 Boon for Tax Accountants The tax bill newly passed by Congress will put a lot of money into the hands of those who can help figure out its provisions: accountants, lawyers, tax preparers and publishers of tax books and software. 26 F.C.C. Choice Is Opposed Objections are delaying the designation of William E. Kennard, the Federal Communications Commission's general counsel, to be the commission's next chairman. 26 NEW YORK/REGION 29-34 2 Teachers' Lives Torn In Discrimination Debate Eight years ago, Sharon Taxman lost her job at Piscataway High School in New Jersey because she is white, and Debra Williams kept hers because she is black. Now, they teach in adjoining classrooms , but they rarely speak, driven apart by race, politics and, paradoxically, a social policy that was supposed to help end such divisiveness. It's a policy that the United States Supreme Court has agreed to reconsider. 1 Tracking Bombing Suspects Ghazi Ibrahim Abu Maizar and Lafi Khalil lie wounded in a Brooklyn hospital, accused by the authorities of conspiring to terrorize New York and the nation with suicide bombings, while investigators struggle to understand how they ended up there. 29 Hamas Denies Connection Hamas, the militant Islamic organization, denied any connection with the two men arrested in Brooklyn. Law enforcement officials said they had intriguing hints of a connection to an organized terrorist group, but no clear evidence. 30 OBITUARIES 35-36 William S.

INTERNATIONAL A3-7 Hopes Dim For China To Join Trade Group After months of negotiations, Clinton Administration officials said they doubted they would reach broad agreement this year to admit China to the World Trade Organization. It had been hoped that China would finally make a comprehensive offer to open its markets and allow foreign competitors to take on state-owned Chinese industries, but China's negotiators instead offered only piecemeal concessions that were inadequate, American officials said. A1 Accusations Fly in Mideast In the fallout of Wednesday's suicide bombings in a crowded Jerusalem market, the Palestinian leader Yasir Arafat has been accused of doing too little to stop violence and creating an atmosphere in which Islamic militants feel free to make attacks. No one has suggested that Mr. Arafat authorized the attack, which he quickly condemned, but Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, say he bears primary responsibility. A1
