Corning Ordinance 623, which regulates sign dis- play through the city in all zoning locations, does not apply to these signs, according to the agenda report. The signs could pose an unappealing presence should they overburden any one city block at a time. For that reason, the council approved the signs to only be placed in the city right-of-ways at intersections or a mid- block placement, with the appropriate permit. The program is always accepting volunteers to join and to help post the signs. If interested and for more information, call Glattelder at 840-0466. Watch FROM PAGE 1 By Steve Peoples and Josh Lederman The Associated Press COUNCIL BLUFFS, IOWA Unmoved by harsh debate reviews, a defiant Don- ald Trump showed no sign Wednesday of embracing any big changes before his second faceoff with Hillary Clinton, pressing ahead with a strategy focused on speaking directly to his white working-class loy- alists across the Midwest. Democrat Clinton, meanwhile, pushed to im- prove her standing among younger voters with the help of the president, Sen. Bernie Sanders and other key allies, 48 hours after her debate performance that seemed to spark badly needed enthusiasm. Those closest to Trump insisted the Republican presidential nominee was satisfied with Monday night's debate, even as prominent voices within his own party called for more serious prepara- tion following an opening confrontation marked by missed opportunities and missteps. "Why would we change if we won the debate?" for- mer New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, a key Trump ally and traveling partner this week, told The Associated Press. "Donald Trump is going to prepare for de- bates the way Donald Trump prepares for de- bates." The next debate is 11 days away. Unlike Clinton, Trump is not planning to partici- pate in any mock debates, although he is likely to in- corporate what one per- son described as "tweaks" to his strategy. Specifically, Trump is likely to spend more time working on specific an- swers and sharpen his at- tacks after spending much of the first meeting on de- fense, said that person, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss in- ternal campaign strategy. That may not be enough to satisfy concerned Re- publicans. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Trump should have been better prepared and he recom- mended that the candidate work harder with skilled coaches. He said, "What you need is people who are professional debaters." South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham said sim- ply: "The only advice I could give him, and take it for what it's worth, pre- pare better." The New York business- man struggled to attack Clinton consistently on the debate stage Monday night, but he has lashed out at her aggressively in the days since. He attacked her record as the nation's chief diplomat during a Wednesday appearance in Chicago. He was expected to go further in later ral- lies in Iowa and Wisconsin. Throughout his out- sider presidential bid, Trump has refused to deviate from a strategy hinged on an ambitious travel schedule packed with massive rallies that draw overwhelmingly white crowds. Clinton, meanwhile, sought Wednesday to par- lay her widely praised de- bate performance into stronger support from women, young Americans and other critical voter groups. She got help from her party's biggest stars. The 2016 election marks in the first in which mil- lennials are the largest generation among U.S. adults, having surpassed baby boomers during the past four years. In Au- gust, a GenForward poll suggested that Clinton's biggest hurdle to attract- ing young people isn't nec- essarily Trump but young adults' widespread dissat- isfaction with both of the major parties. PRESIDENTIAL RACE De sp it e ha rs h re vi ew s, T ru mp resists new debate approach JOHN LOCHER — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Donald Trump speaks at the Polish National Alliance, Wednesday in Chicago. By Matthew Daly and Eric Tucker The Associated Press WASHINGTON Republican lawmakers may question the decision not to prose- cute Hillary Clinton for us- ing a private email server as secretary of state, but they should not question the in- vestigation's thoroughness, FBI Director James Comey said Wednesday as he again defended the agency's ac- tions. "You can call us wrong, but don't call us weasels. We are not weasels. We are hon- est people, and we did this in that way," Comey said un- der hours of questioning at a House Judiciary Committee hearing. "Whether you dis- agree or agree with the re- sult, this was done the way youwouldwantittobedone." Republicans grilled Comey on the FBI's year- long investigation into the potential mishandling of classified email, which con- cluded in July when the FBI recommended against pros- ecution and the Justice De- partment closed the case. They demanded to know why multiple key witnesses had been granted some kind of immunity, ques- tioned him on his inter- pretation of the key felony statute at issue and argued that the outcome revealed a double standard in the treatment of powerful pub- lic figures. But Comey, who has re- peatedly sought to explain the FBI's decision making, again said that the case was not a close call and insisted that no one else would have been prosecuted for the same acts — even if they might have gotten into trouble with their employer. "To prosecute on these facts would be a double standard because Jane and Joe Smith would not be prosecuted on these facts," Comey said. Republicans were not as- suaged, arguing that Clin- ton, the Democratic presi- dential nominee, illegally mishandled classified infor- mation. Committee chair- man Bob Goodlatte of Vir- ginia contended that Clin- ton had played "fast and loose with national secu- rity" and said it defied logic that she could escape pros- ecution. Rep. Lamar Smith, of Texas, suggested that the FBI reopen the investiga- tion in light of what he said were "several new develop- ments." Rep. John Ratcliffe, R- Texas, insisted that the fix was in from the start, assert- ing that the decision not to prosecutewasmadeevenbe- foreClintonwasinterviewed inearlyJuly—aclaimComey vigorously denied. GOP panel members re- peatedly pressed Comey on his acknowledgment that multiple witnesses had been granted some form of immunity. They also voiced concern with the number of people who had been in the room with Clinton during her July FBI interview. Comey said agents granted immunity to Cheryl Mills, Clinton's for- mer chief of staff, because they wanted to inspect her laptop as part of the inves- tigation. The immunity deal was limited to informa- tion contained on her lap- top, Comey said. Another of the witnesses given im- munity was Bryan Pagliano, the tech expert who set up Clinton's email server. House Republicans had considered a resolution find- ing Pagliano, who has de- clined to answer questions from lawmakers, in con- tempt of Congress but have postponed that for now. HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE FBI director defends integrity of Clinton email probe The Associated Press BOSTON A 22-year-old man rescued from a life raft after a fishing trip that left his mother missing and presumed dead had been a suspect in the 2013 slaying of his rich grandfather, ac- cording to court documents that add to the multitude of questions swirling around him and what happened at sea. Nathan Carman was pickedupbyafreighterSun- day 100 miles off the Massa- chusetts coast after what he said was a week adrift that began when his 31-foot alu- minum fishing boat inexpli- cably sank during a mother- and-son outing. Coast Guard officials in- terviewed Carman and po- lice searched his home in Vermont as part of an in- vestigation into the ill-fated trip. Carman has not been charged with anything, and his attorney said his moth- er's death was a "tragic ac- cident." Court documents indi- cate Carman had a his- tory of violence as a child and came under suspicion in the killing nearly three years ago of his maternal grandfather, 87-year-old John Chakalos, a real estate developer who was found shot in his home in Wind- sor, Connecticut.
