A specialist in employee benefits programs, Butterfield grew up m Connecticut, later receiving a bachelor's degree in political sci- ence from Boston University and his law degree at theJ}mversity of San Diego. Butterfield has servecl the San Diego's Retirement System Board, the body that ad- ministers more than $620 million in employees' retirement funds, and is active in many chantable activi- lies, including the Child Abuse Prevention Foundation of San Die- go County, which he co-founded. He lives in Linda Vista with his wife and stepdaughter. Acle, a naturalized citizen born in Mexico City, moved to San Diego in 1962 and received a bachelor's degree in chemistry at San Diego State University.•Acle, who lives in Golden Hill w1th his wife, also holds a master's degree in business administration from Stanford Uni- versity. Major Differences 1 Over the last 15 years, Acle has held posts in the Nixon, Ford and Reagan administrations, as well as a variety of management and mar- keting consulting jobs in the pri - vate sector. In the early 1970s, Acle was a finance manager and special assistant in the old U.S. Depart- ment of Health, Education and Welfare, and, in 1985 and 1986, was the Reagan Administration's liai- son to the Latino and Asian com- on "I have the experience and back- ground necessary in this job, I would not have to spend time learning the ropes," Acle said. "That's one of the major differenc- munities.

I could go to work for the district from Day However, Butterfield, who won a straw poll at a countywide Repub- lican convention in April, argues that his own experience is at least as well-matched to the congres- sional job as Acle's "government bureaucrat ... background." Between them, Acle and Butter- $100,000, a relatively modest budg- et for a congressional race, in the primary. As of May 18, Butterfield, who loaned his campaign $25,000, had spent $45,649, compared to On a number of major issues, the two Republicans have diametrical- ly opposite views. Butterfield, for example, supports the Equal Rights Amendment and the congressional override earlier this year of Rea- gan's veto of the Civil Rights Restoration Act, while Acle oppos- es both measures. Acle's support for the President's veto of the civil rights bill, in fact, cost him the endorsement of the Republican Hispanic Assembly. Acle favors a Republican child-care proposal, whereas Butterfield supports a broader, more expensive Demo- cratic version. But the two also concur on other topics, particularly defense-related issues, as evidenced by their sup- port for aid to the Nicaraguan - Contras and for continued funding , for the so-called "Star Wars" weaponry research. Both also op- pose federal funding for abortions and favor a moment of silence for $31,509 for Acle. l." field expect to spend about

NotPlanningCbange Given the lopsided party makeup I of his district, however, Bates is , confident that he will retain his I seat as the only Democrat in the · county's congressional delegation. "Let's just say I'm not planning a career change anytime soon," Bates said recently, barely able to 1 ·stifle a yawn as he discussed his prospective GOP opponents. Indeed, although Acle and But- terfield often tell their Republican I audiences that Bates is "vulnera- ble"-the favorite word in all polit- , ical long shots' vocabulary-the nature of the 44th District would appear to indicate otherwise. With that in mind, perhaps the most accurate description of the significance of the Republican pri- 1 mary in the 44th District came from Democratic political consultant Nick Johnson. · I "Here's a case where the winner , is the loser," Johnson said. "Be- / cause you might win the primary in 1 June but you're going to lose in / November_ That's practically ·, guarant~ed. I_f you're the Republi- 1' can nommee m the 44th, the reality is you have to campaign five more months, spend more money, and then you lose. So, the guy who 1 loses in June might be the real I winner."

Today some 4,000 missionary ~isters, Brothers and prie ts serve destitute and d}ing pt'Ople m about 80 countries throu hout the world. They care for lepers and AIDS patients. 'I hey operate feeding centers and mobile medical clinics. They teach children and visit hut-ins . Th missionaries also operate an adoption program for abandoned babies m India. Mother Teresa fights abortion on many fronts, saying that unwanted,

unborn babies are in greater danger than lepers. Four Missionaries of Charity arrived in Tijuana, Mexico, in February to open a shelter for dying and destitute men. Mother Teresa's visit to San Diego May 31 was in conjunction with her visit to the Tijuana shelter. Mother Teresa believes that in serving the poor, she directly serves God. And her concept of poverty extends beyond material want. "Poverty is the

absence of love," she told Tower. "There is more warmth in Calcutta where people are willing to share .. . than in many places where they have everything." In some cities "people simply die of loneliness, unwanted, unloved, forgotten" - a poverty she called worse than being without food . She upholds a similar concept of illness. "One of the greatest diseases is to be nobody to anyone,'' she once sai~
