President Bush has declared six Ohio counties "disaster areas," due to the tornadoes that struck 10 days ago. That opens the door for federal aid to people in Hancock, Ottawa, Paulding, Putnam, Seneca, and Van Wert counties. Dick Kimmins speaks for Ohio's Emergency Management Agency. He talked with statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen. |
